          2008 iPhone 3G (128MB RAM)

          2010 iPhone 4 (512MB RAM)
          2011 iPhone 4s (512MB RAM)
          2012 iPhone 5 (1GB RAM)
          2013 iPhone 5S/5C (1GB RAM)
          2014 iPhone 6/6Plus (1GB RAM)
          2015 iPhone 7 (1.5GB RAM)
          2016 iPhone 8 (1.5GB RAM)
          2017 iPhone 9 (1.5GB RAM)

            Dota2pro_player, 17 Sep 2014okay they got 3GB RAM but why is it that they cannot reach ... moreThey are, really are better performers than iPhone with its feeble, 1GB RAM. The 2GB in my S5 allows me to do this... Run a dash cam DVR app, a music player playing a FLAC file and Chrome ALL at the same time in the foreground. That's multitasking power the iPhone does not have!

                            AnonD-59657, 17 Sep 2014Only 1GB RAM for high end device like iPhone 6? Hey Apple ... moreIphone uses 1GB and it's at the same level as those "modern day devices" that uses 3GB RAM. Do you see the point yet? You just don't see it. In your little mind, a high device = high specs. In other peoples minds, a high device = Luxury and USABILITY that means specs that we need.

                            For you , 2014 3GB ram, 2015 4Gb ram, 2016 5Gb Ram... you automatically label them THE LATEST AND HIGH END. Grow up. It's a phone, not an internet server.

                              AnonD-298198, 17 Sep 2014Why does anyone even care how much RAM it has, it only matt... moreI think you'd care given that by the next ios revision or the one after that your phone will lag severely, as it already happens with iPhone 4 and iPhone 4s. And don't tell me that android phones age equally badly, sure but I pay them half or 1/4th as much.

                              Premium price should carry premium hardware, in iPhone ' s case that's clearly not a priority...
