Gmail Go does almost everything the regular mail app can. It uses less RAM and loads images on demand. When combined with Gboard Go, for example, the data consumption goes even lower, although you will not be able to insert all the GIFs.

If you don’t like how Gmail Go performs, you have to uninstall it from the Play Store instead of going into the Settings on your phone.
