How much RAM every Apple iPhone ever released has

The RAM memory of iPhone phones is a mystery to many people because Apple doesn’t promote this feature in its marketing. Nor do they need to, as iPhone smartphones usually move along excellently despite having less memory than equivalent models running the Android operating system.

For example, in 2019 the iPhone 11 Pro Max debuted on the market with 4 GB of RAM. Its direct competitor, the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+, had 12 GB of RAM. But in tests the Apple-made device performed better.

That’s because Apple makes both the hardware and the software, and the company can optimize processes very well.

Apple has so far maxed out at 6 GB of RAM on its phones. There are smartphones on the market that have 18 GB of RAM. Examples are the Nubia Red Magic 7S Pro or the Asus ROG Phone 6 Pro.
