Can anyone explain iPads and RAM?
- Infinitesimus 6y agoWhat specifically about it?
- burlesona 6y agoApple doesn’t talk about the RAM because the machines have enough. I don’t recall the exact amount from tear downs, but having owned a few different models over time and played graphically complex games etc on them, I can say the performance on iPads is consistently great and however much RAM they have is enough. iOS is a console ecosystem, so any new one is guaranteed to last 5 years or more with excellent performance.
- chongli 6y agoIf I had to guess, I think it's because they don't want developers optimizing for specific amounts of RAM and then having lousy performance on iPads with less RAM. If consumers don't have an easy way to find out which models have >X GB of RAM, then developers can't put it in their system requirements.
