Samsung to help usher in smartphones that have same RAM as laptops

The mobile device industry is catching up with its desktop/laptop counterparts. And they’re catching up fast. Samsung announced it has begun mass production of 4GB LPDDR4 mobile DRAM modules, which will be the first smartphone modules to provide 4GB of RAM. This would mean your future smartphones will have as much RAM as a lot of laptops. We don’t know what devices will feature these next generation modules but it’s just insane to think about how much more powerful our pocketable devices are getting.

“By initiating production of the 20nm 8GB LPDDR4, which is even faster than the DRAM for PCs and servers and consumes much less energy, we are contributing to the timely launch of UHD, large-screen flagship mobile devices,” said Joo Sun Choi, EVP of memory sales and marketing at Samsung.
