AnonD-388534, 16 Feb 2016This year 6gb ram is impossible because the flagship proces... moreFlagship processor this year actually could use a 6gb ram. We are not talking about Snapdragon 820 here. SD830 have been rumored since December last year. Samsung had begin their 6gb ram for smartphone production since September last year. And even more good news, Snapdragon 830 is made with 10nm process. It will be able to support up to 8gb of ram. Why you guys so surprised by this? Smartphone actually getting left behind by their super powerful laptop counterpart. Surface Pro 4 already support 16gb of ram. If a Windows device can have huge ram, why not Android? Windows phones traditionally have been known to only have low ram but their computer counterpart strangely used a lot more ram than you think. With gaming and VR in mind it is only reasonable for Samsung to go with this moves.

        Anonymous, 16 Feb 2016You really can't please everybody. People complaining about... moregalaxy s4 had 2gb of ram, which was always full. note 4 had 3 gb of ram, which was always full. see where i'm going? even if they put 20gb of ram, they'll fill it with useless features to most people such as GearVR apps or idk.

          Now, today Samsung has again taken the technology a step further with the launch of 12GB LPDDR4 (low power, double data rate 4) DRAM Chip that will
          offer 6GB RAM for the upcoming Next Generation Smartphones and tablets.
          The latest DRAM chip version 12 comes with such technology that accelerates:
          Advanced 20-nanometer (nm) Process Technology
          30% fast speed than the previous 8GB LPDDR4
          20% Less energy consumption
          Increased Manufacturing productivity to 50%
          The next generation mobile phones are supposed to be equipped with the new mobile DRAM chip enabling increased capacity and fastest speed with simultaneously providing essentials (for building a smarter mobile device) such as:
          Excellent energy efficiency
          Reliability
          Ease of design
          Smooth multitasking
          Better performance with the compatible operating system
          The DRAM chip also boasts of having speed twice as fast as DDR4 DRAM for desktops or laptops. The mobile memory being designed for smartphones and tablets plans to expand to ultra-slim PCs and IoT devices.

              Yawn.. such a pointless spec stunt as always.. Like others have said, even 2GB phones already perform flawlessly. We've reached a point where specs don't really matter anymore. At the end of the day, most flagship phones will do the things we want and 6GB ram will yield absolutely no increase in real world performance (which is what matters) at all. Such a waste.

As far as i am concerned, continuum is the way forward fir Mobile device. Plain and simple. Next thing i'll hear is that 3dtouch from iPhone is innovation, now 6gb ram. This is just becoming too funny. Hehehehe

                    No. I don't believe this. It is only a rumor. I still do't understand why does it need 6gb of RAM. Even for a PC it is way ahead.

                              rumors looks nice but have to wait untill offically conformed
                              the camere will be damn sure better then S7 cam because
                              S7 12 mega pixel cam has OIS and in rumors
                              NOTE 6 will also have 12 mega pixel cam but it will have super OIS
                              if the rumors come true then this will be the BEAST like BROCK LESNOR ; )

                                6GB Ram is overkill and will play havoc with battery life. And being a samsung, it will probably still lag with all that ram.

                                    if the info is correct, this means the software in the note 6 is very unoptimized.
                                    I mean, 3GB of ram is perfect, android isn't resource heavy as much as it's CPU heavy. so adding more ram means more bloatware or useless features.

                                      Anonymous, 16 Feb 2016iPhone 6s can not do proper multitasking. It's just a mid r... moreNo, actually setting the iPhone to January 1st, 1970 unlocks true and powerful Multitasking, but it will drain the battery just a little bit more.

                                        So we can also expect 3D touch on note. I wonder what would be 6GBram for, maybe some relation to high speed in network tech or camera? Anyway I hope it's camera will be better than in S7, not exactly the same after half year...
