Android 4.4 KitKat supports devices with just 512MB of RAM #Android 4.4 KitKat has been designed to run fast, smooth, and responsively not only on high-end devices but also on entry-level ones that have as low as 512MB of RAM.The company informs that #KitKat streamlines every major component of the OS to reduce memory use and introduces new APIs and tools to help developers create new, responsive, memory-efficient apps.Google says that OEMs that are building new Android devices can leverage the targeted recommendations and options to run Android 4.4 efficiently, even on low-memory devices. If multiple services need to start simultaneously, Android 4.4 KitKat launches the services serially, in small groups, to prevent peak memory demands, as per the company. #Google adds that changes across the system now improve memory management and reduce memory footprint and that core system processes have been trimmed to use less heap, and they now more aggressively protect system memory from apps consuming large amounts of RAM. This essentially means that processes that are essential for functioning of Android, now use less #RAM, freeing up more RAM for other apps, resulting in improved performance and enhanced user experience. #techguru
