What's ur opinion, if the 7 Plus feature 3GB of RAM ,the 2017 IPhone will have 3GB of RAM or maybe 4??
 
If it has 3gb, it's because it was needed for the extra software stuff behind the curtains. The stuff we don't see.
If they have 3gb now, it will have it in the next ones too. If they need more, they eventually get more. We don't know anything about the 8 yet, maybe the redesign and ios11 only needs 1gb because they pull some magic. I think it's a bit too early
 
No rocket science but it won't be less than 3GB

No way Apple or anyone will put less Ram in their future products. As for 4 GB, for me that's not needed in an iPhone as of now, in the future maybe.

I think most have missed the question the OP was making, obivisouly the 2017 iphone plus will have at least 3gb of ram. I believe he was asking if the 4.7 iphone will have it, I think it will.

IOS 11 only 64-bit finally!!! However in the future IOS updates will require more RAM .
IOS 11 and 12-5s and newer
IOS 13- 6 and newer
IOS 14- 6s and newer

Probably all devices with 1gb of RAM will be left behind in IOS 13
 
iOS10 and the iPhone 5s on 32gb storage and it's little bit of ram is holding up pretty darn good .. my dad has no issues with it. A proper 64bit phone with 64bit os. Just a shame it's not 100% 64bit :) But we're getting there.
