    Compared to the Edge+ 2020 model: a few things have been improved but generally 2 steps back.

      8 gig on a 2023 flagship? On a 512gb model? Pffft...

      At least it's not MIUI where RAM is irrelevant because it's the worst skin/UI to multitask on, because MIUI aggressively kills background apps even with battery saver off, with or without performance mode turned on.
      And with proprietary fast charging, USB 2.0, badly inferior cameras, bad updates especially outside China, and bloat upon bloat on their phones with the worst OTG transfer speeds and no video out. Dirt cheap things to add isn't there.
      Just their international ROM alone uses 3gb RAM idle. Their game turbo app removed the function to see GPU/CPU usage in MIUI 14, and replaced it with an FPS counter that measures FPS only in the app PiP window and not the game, it will tell you it's 60 FPS all the time with "before" 30-40 FPS when you know, and can see nothing has changed. It's almost like they degrade their phones over time on purpose to sell you a better phone.

      Xiaomi 13 is asking for over 1000€ for Xiaomi 13, they think they can compete against the top brands.

        Again No SD Slot

          Meanwhile another China only market Phone from another manufacture just launched with 16 gigs of ram with a choice of 256 or 512 gigs of storage. Motorola on the other hand thinks this 8 gig bog is fine for the rest of us outside of China.

                        Everything looks reat, but no expandable storage, i would rather get a lowmidrange with es than this.

                          Not going to talk much on the Ram Because I believe this should have a virtual memory of upto 4Gb

The Pro, from what I understand, has 256gb of storage whereas the the Edge+ has 512gb. That may make a difference to some people since neither have a memory card slot. I'd personally rather have the larger storage over the extra ram since I can't add a card and the ram makes little difference. But that's just me. Your mileage may vary.

                                The biggest problem isn't just 8gb of ram but the fact the Chinese version of this phone, the 40 pro, comes with 12gb. This means they have removed and downgraded hardware and give no choice to the consumer that would want what the Chinese version already has. That is the issue.

Your phone probably has a Snapdragon 865. No comparison in performance. It's not possible the Snapdragon can keep up with even a modest home PC no matter how much ram you throw in it. Phone cpu's are limited by TDP and thermal throttling. If someone expects a 10w phone cpu to keep up with a 125w home PC cpu, they're going to be disappointed.

                                      Use the tool for the job. Sometimes a phone is fine. Sometimes a more powerful tool is needed. Know the limitations of the phone and don't ask it to do PC tasks.

PCs don't need to crunch AI algorythms and power big camera sensors like phones do nowadays, I own the Moto Edge+ 2020 and to be fair, 12GB starts to feel short for some tasks. I really expected this phone to be at least 16GB but it's ridiculous that despite being 3 generations newer, it falls short in front of its predecesor in terms of specs and features.
