Before you get too excited, though, note that this amount of RAM could only be inside devices headed for select Asian markets.

      encompasses all of southern america countries.
      And we should consider that Brazil and India are countries with continental territories sizes.

            Okay that's it I'm not reading anymore S8 related rumors until the official ones are out, this is too much teasing even for me! Still this is very good news indeed, just goes to show that the west isn't as spec crazy as the east where Chinese phones have to compensate for weak software offerings with more and more useless hardware.

                tonymancs, 01 Feb 2017consumersmartphone, you started argument criticizing Nokia ... more"you started argument criticizing Nokia 6 for having sub-par SoC but completely neglect the facts big RAM and OS matter too" where I'm saying RAM and OS doesnt matter?

                "RAM will always matter to a resource-hungry OS like Android until they start fixing it" fix what? Google please call this guy, seems he know to fix your OS LOL

                "You say first you are helping your brother testing phones, then say you are not a pro, just test phones for fun, then admit you test phones to get paid. I remember you the most because you bragged yourself for having experiences from from testing phones" then is that a crime? why so bothered? I've test few phones since 2013, yes I'm helping my brother, yes that I'm having fun, yes they pay me well to do that and yes I've experiences from from testing phones, then what? something wrong with that?

                "denying any possibility of any 4xx being better than any 6xx" joking or serious? 430 better than 653?

                "nobody gonna take you serious" yes nobody but you, you miss me right?

                "How did you get that Nokia 6, what are your impression during testing and then butchering it?" I dont know or care how they get it, just send it to me to be tested and collect the data. I'm testing 3 units since Sunday and will get 2 more units tomorrow.

                    consumersmartphone, 01 Feb 2017I'm a tester. I just put questions to make people talk and ... moreThat's the problem. The 4gb Samsung phones cost more than 6gb from other manufacturers, or even Samsung in the case of the C9 Pro.

                      consumersmartphone, you started argument criticizing Nokia 6 for having sub-par SoC but completely neglect the facts big RAM and OS matter too. RAM will always matter to a resource-hungry OS like Android until they start fixing it. You say first you are helping your brother testing phones, then say you are not a pro, just test phones for fun, then admit you test phones to get paid. I remember you the most because you bragged yourself for having experiences from from testing phones, denying any possibility of any 4xx being better than any 6xx yet you couldn't oppose any points I have mentioned, then accusing me fro being Nokia salesman. I don't know if you are just an amateur or you are trolling or lying on purpose but if you gonna play this way, nobody gonna take you serious. So go on. How did you get that Nokia 6, what are your impression during testing and then butchering it?

                          I'm a tester. I just put questions to make people talk and open mind of other people. If you need 8 gig, buy it, up to you, if you don't so don't worry world still have 4 gig with more affordable price. So don't buy something to show off. Thanks for your response guy.

The OP3 is clearly faster and more responsive. In general and only up to a certain point the more memory you give Android the faster it runs.
