Automatically no interest in a phone that comes with such a cheap trick.
The phone has 6 or 8gb ram which is plenty for non gamers, and most people getting a52s are not gaming to a level they need more.
And even if they game, "download ram" doesn't make much sense on ANY BRAND phone.

However, a swap file is meant to be considered as RAM, which means frequent writes. Use your storage as RAM and it won't last nearly as long as a mostly read-only device would. If you only read to it, it could very well last forever. I do not expect smartphones to pack high endurance NAND, nor are OEMs supposed to put those in to begin with. Smartphone NAND is not of the same caliber as PC NAND.

No it doesn't. It gets better software handling! Not more ram.

But on... moreWell that sucks it would be useful if you could decide when to use VRAM and when to convert it back to storage cause 6GB in most cases it enough and I would only want more when I'm gaming and watching some walkthrough on youtube
