RAM on Xperia SL and P

[Vonfeffer]

Hi all, I have a xperia p and recently bought a sl for speed and etc. But I found out the sl ram fills too fast and it´s harder to free more of it then it was on p. Then I found out xperia p has  801,4 MB of total RAM and the sl has only 685,1 MB. How come????? After all free ram is as important as processor speed... (I used Antutu and config>apps>running to find this out). Is this true?

that's not true, the User doesn't have access to all the RAM that's why it seems as if you are missing RAM

this thread should explain it

also stay away from this type of apps

task killers

task managers

antivirus

ram apps

booster apps

battery apps

this will also explain Memory

I´m actually using RAM Manager Pro, why shouldn´t I use it? If I understand correctly from the links on this thread, the Android ram manager can sometimes be not very precise... Would you enlighten me please?

Best Regards

it will close apps or force close apps, this will make Android a bit unstable and/or create issues with other apps.

Android apps that use power control APIs are often 'battery killers,' oh the irony
