Cool. So mind sharing the sources?

I see no evidence of this
What’s more my 11 pro is very fast even with loads of programs open and using demanding programs
I think this is part of internet fake news

The last line is the funniest part to me. I can understand being salty you didn’t get 6gb, but to say an iPhone will need 8gb next year shows you are irrational and trying to stir the pot.

Very good sources. Great sources. The best sources. All very good.
Another post of sweeping statements without any substantial support.
That’s not necessarily always down to the OS. It can be the way the app has been developed as well. E.g. Twitter seems to cold launch a lot more than instagram but instagram handles more data than Twitter.
If you have the new camera capture outside the frames options on it will chew through your ram. YouTube always restarts from scratch whenever I have that on. I have now those two turned off.
On a side note the video capture outside frame turned itself back on when I went to check this in the settings while writing this post.

Which in real world usage isn’t a big deal and on my testing it isn’t bad at all. As long as YouTube doesn’t refresh when I go and text somebody for my usage it is ok
It’s quite evident you hate Apple, so why do you keep spending your time posting about them?
The more I see the OP post, the more I think he’s a troll. As others have said, if you hate Apple so much why not try another company? There’s plenty to choose from.
I’d love to see a link to those sources if you don’t mind, one can never have too much information and I enjoy any technical read.
But from what I’m seeing, particularly when using Instruments during debugging, there’s anything but a bottleneck, or shortage of RAM.
Not that that surprises me, when we’ve been having this same old debate on memory efficiency, and particularly efficiency in an operating system developed in tandem with the hardware for what? A decade or so?
I may as well throw this in, though I would suggest using the search bar for the many, many technical discussions we’ve had on this subject in years past.
iOS itself is a very scalable architecture, iOS 13 for example is designed to run well on systems with as little as 2GB of RAM. I have been using just such a device for the past week and iOS showed no issues whatsoever and that’s with a battery which couldn’t last me 3 hours.
Even with the extra bells and whistles exclusive to the new devices, 4GB will be fine for the next 4-5 years of new operating system versions for the vast majority of people. Longer even for the less demanding, more casual users.

And yet, iPhones from the 6s onward seem to report (mostly) positive results with iOS 13.
Isn’t school back in session?
You’ve already made similar troll posts...
They don’t struggle to run iOS 13 even with 2GB RAM let alone double that.

iPhone looks like too ugly. If Jobs lives, he won't design this kind of iPhone.
Beauty is in the eye of the holder and no-one, not even close friends at Apple can speak for what Steve would, or wouldn’t do if he were alive. He could be unpredictable and very single minded.
Personally I think the iPhone 11 series, with that god awful camera hump, bump, or whatever you want to call it is a bit on the fugly side.....
..... But I still bought one, why? Features and the fact that I don’t sit and look at its arse all day, I’m much more of a face guy when it comes to iPhones.
If it were Android, it would need 32 GB of RAM. See what I did there?
It's OK guys, no need to determine the sources, as they're 'real.'
Please don’t feed the sad pathetic little trolls. Let the mods deal with them.
I just got the phone on Friday. It’s been busy doing “new iPhone things” that sometimes bog it down or chew on battery. Each day that lessens. Already today looks like it’s going to be a good day for performance and battery life
I mention this because there might be some people out there who haven’t upgraded in years and will go through the same thing, see this thread and panic.
Don’t panic.

This is what I call a hit-and-run post. Makes a blatant statement and then doesn’t come back to prove it. I see this far too often.
