MEOW, 22 Jul 2020now we see why iOS is better than android.. because its RAM... moreThat is without a doubt a truly ill informed comparison... did you just really had put an x86_64 OS vs. a PHONE slash ARM64 head to head min RAM req?
Secondly lol the lot of you droid detractors seriously need to recheck the last Pixels (as per Google's own devices) max RAM counts. No Android DOES NOT REQUIRE >4GB RAM and only OEMs does this to jack up the prices.
Good joke about iOS too. Droids had multitasking since even before 2GB RAM phones just fine. Took iOS until iOS 11 to catch up. How's iOS doing in that department? Next time if you're gonna exaggerate, never forget that some of us droid users does own an iPad too.

Google Must Remove Google app . Because it's taking 400mb Ram and. People who don't like use google assistant is no use of Google app. Vhrome is sufficient.

Where android needs 8gb to run any heavy apps + 5000mAh batteries to last one day, iOS needs just 3gb and 3000mAh. About half the specs of android, and still runs better. That says a lot about who are the better/smarter developers working each platform.

Google should start paying rent for using most of my phone's ram. Seriously why the hell the ram requirements are increasing in the name of features. Just make the features modular so that i can switch on/off based on my phone's ram. Come on.. you can develop that technology.

Good decision, because android is now mature os and Google doesn't want laggy performance.

Farhan aka Wolverine, 22 Jul 2020Can GSMArena write an article detailing the differences bet... moreSomething You lose are
*There is no way to allow notification access to third party apps
*The usual google assistant(the one with 'ok google' function) isnt available
*sometimes some apps cant be downloaded directly from playstore,You may need to sideload them
with every android go updates,they are adding some features in the full-fledged android to android go,So we may see all these stuff in android go soon....
