> Apple is horribly stingy with RAM even on the Pro models.

6 gigabytes of RAM on a phone is hardly stingy, when laptops with 8 gigabytes are still considered reasonable.

i think by stingy she means that they are not using the best memory chips to save money, so ram modules go bad often

That's the first time I've ever heard of that, is there anything to read up on that?

I have no idea tbh, but that's what ericabiz seemed to imply, maybe I'm wrong and she meant something else

> In general, if you use your phone daily, I recommend getting the battery replaced every 2-2.5 years.

Another thing that people forget to do... please restart in once in a while.

How silly is that?

Remember how people laughed at Windows users and the Windows OS? That you have to reboot daily or else it slows down?

Well, these days, my Samsung flagship actually pops up a notification every once in a while, reminding me to please reboot the phone to ensure smooth operation. There's even an option you can turn on to make it automatically reboot every night!

(I imagine that option doesn't automagically skip the SIM card lock and the Android security lock, so IMHO running it is insane, as it would make the phone unreachable until you wake up and unlock it properly.)

Now that is a proper "Do Not Disturb" implementation. Like unplugging the landline from the wall!
