Vivo Could Be Working On A Smartphone With 10GB Of RAM

Turn the clock back a few years ago, hearing that a phone could pack as much as 4GB of RAM sounded pretty crazy. However this eventually became the norm and we started seeing phones packing as much as 6GB. Now it looks like we could go even higher because according to the rumors, Vivo could have a 10GB RAM smartphone in the works.

This is according to a recent image that was posted onto Weibo (via Pocketnow) which allegedly shows off the Vivo Xplay 7 with some of its specs listed. Assuming this is accurate, the Xplay 7 will pack 10GB of RAM and as much as 512GB of storage. Both the former and latter sound pretty insane since we’re not sure if anyone really needs 10GB of RAM on their phones, and 512GB of storage does sound like it could be pretty expensive.

However it wouldn’t be entirely out of the question because if you recall, in December 2017 Samsung announced that they have begun mass producing the industry’s first 512GB  embedded storage solution, which means that it wouldn’t be a stretch to think Vivo could be using this technology.

In any case take it with a grain of salt for now since there’s no way to confirm if this post is the real deal, but in the meantime what do you guys think? Is 10GB of RAM a bit of overkill as far as phones are concerned?
