    Never mind that the clock speed on RAM matters more then how many GB you have more.

    Never mind that i cant understand the multitasking on phones. At best you can do is split screen. To have several apps running in background they still want to load something when you go on them and probably are not running on full power like they are doing it when in use on top of other apps.

    Never mind that apps use more RAM when ever you feed them more. It's not like these run better cause there is more RAM available to use for them. The difference you feel is in hardware of CPU and GPU

    There is also no good chips that use less energy when you but a load on them to justify that snapdragon is bad for that

And with that AI crap more and more will be reserved on OS level... bottom line is that base Sline comes with less RAM than midrange phones with 1/2 price on the market..

        And having Snapdragons with small battery is a disaster, as soon as you put load on them..

        None of those issues exist on S-ultra, but then again it's competitive only with good cell contract.. But that is just my opinion ofc, ymmv.

Just to have more of it that is probably slower too then the 6-8GB on S series. These S series give you a lot better cameras and also flagship chip that gives you the performance. Smaller battery is cause the phone is a lot smaller.

            More RAM to compensate the lower performance of the chip.

                        read/write, Random read/Write etc

                        From Gsmarena review
                        The A55 is now built around a 6.6-inch OLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate and regular old 1080 x 2340 pixels resolution. The panel also supports HDR10+ and has the necessary Widevine L1 certification for high-quality, HDR-enabled streaming on Netflix and Amazon Prime Video.

                        Hdr10+ is same as Doby Vision when you visit Streaming website they will serve you what your device support, Netflix, Prime, Apple TV etc all support it and because it's royality free even pirating movies adopt it more than Dolby.

                        Also how does bezel have anything to do with Display Quality? For some people prefer bezel more Than no bezel, especially when it come to durability.

                              How can we say the A55 has a better display when it has big bezels, no Dolby Vision, no 1920Hz PWM and many others.

                                      also ufs Storage is something many people confuse here, ufs is just controller which specify theoretical speed, doesn't mean if it has ufs 4 or 3 then automatically you get better speed, you can have worse speed even with better on paper version.

                                      There are dozens phones with ufs 3.1 which in real life have better speed than Poco X6 pro like Poco F5, Huawei P60, oneplus 12R etc

                                      About X6 pro vs A55 they have same random read and X6 has better random write speed by big margin. So for average user who rarely play games or run heavy apps experience would be same, but for heavy user who write a lot then X6 pro would be superior.
