The iPhone 4S only 512 MB RAM, sadly ...

never too much memory, even if the operating system is able to spend it very sparingly. This assertion has been repeatedly tested in practice. For example, remember the difference in the quality of graphics in Infinity Blade on iPhone 4 and iPad first generation. In the latter case, it was much worse (texture easier without the effects of 3D-texturing), and because in fact the device is almost identical, and in tablet runs on the processor even slightly higher frequency (1 GHz vs. 800 MHz), but half the memory, only 256MB, and it was critical. It was a lot of hope that Apple's, following the analogy in 2010, will equip iPhone 4S twice as large as the RAM, than their last tablet, iPad 2, that is 1 GB. The first alarm bell sounded even during presentations - no mention of the amount of RAM in the opener. On the other hand, we have shown much prettier in comparison to the original Infinity Blade 2. Unfortunately, the miracle did not happen.
Creative director of Chair Entertainment, Donald Mustard (Donald Mustard), during an interview with
"I'm still shocked in a good way by the fact that along with the iPhone 4S actually carry in a pocket camera that is capable shoot video at 1080p and make an 8-megapixel snapshots, the 64-gigabyte drive, a powerful A5 chip and 512 MB of RAM. It really is a very serious computer, is not it? "- here so jauntily Mustard shattered all the dreams of the increased amount of RAM in the new iPhone.
Although, in the case of the Apple gadget power "iron" recedes into the background, or at least it is not as important as in the Android world. The same iPhone 4 often runs much smoother and more pleasant 2-nuclear Andrpoid-champions. Nevertheless, I would like to get a new device for the future, but it is not. Already, 512 MB RAM - is the limit which is felt particularly when working with active iPad 2 and 4 c iPhone. Maybe it is a hardware limitation news means that before the release of the iPhone 5 with 1 GB of RAM will have to wait much less than before the iPhone 4S release, after the predecessor?
