What is RAM?
RAM (Random Access Memory) is different to the permanent storage provided by hard disk drives (HDD), solid state drives (SSD) or memory cards in your equipment. RAM is used by your device to temporarily store data to carry out everyday operations. The more RAM your machine has, the faster you can expect it to open and run programs.

This device has 8GB of RAM.

(1) Water and dust resistance were tested to IP68 and IP69 standards under controlled laboratory conditions. Withstands immersion in up to 1.5 meters of fresh water for up to 30 minutes, and is protected against powerful, high-temperature water jets for up to 30 seconds. Exposure to conditions beyond these ratings are not covered by warranty. Resistance will decrease as a result of normal wear. Not designed to work while submerged under water. Do not expose to liquids other than fresh water. Do not attempt to charge a wet phone. Designed to provide protection against the ingress of solid foreign objects of any size. Not waterproof.
(2) Performance of Gorilla® Glass 7i is based on lab tests under controlled conditions. Actual performance may vary based on specific use, environmental conditions, and other factors. While Gorilla® Glass 7i is designed to enhance durability and provide improved resistance to drops and scratches compared to competitive lithium aluminosilicate glass, it is not indestructible and may still suffer damage under certain conditions. Users should exercise caution and avoid subjecting their devices to unnecessary risk.
(3) All battery life claims are approximate and based on the median user tested across a mixed use profile (which includes both usage and standby time) under optimal network conditions. Actual battery performance will vary and depends on many factors, including signal strength, network and device settings, temperature, battery condition, and usage patterns.
(4) Requires Motorola TurboPower™ 30W Charger; sold separately. Maximum 30W TurboPower charging speed on device; higher chargers will not increase maximum charge capability. Median users can get up to 23 hours of battery life in 30 minutes of charge. Battery must be substantially depleted; charge boost must be 'on'; charging rate slows as charging progresses.

What is SIM free?
You'll receive an unlocked device, so there's no requirement to commit to any network, leaving you free to decide which SIM card / network to use. This gives you the opportunity to find the most suitable plan, whether that's contract or pay-as-you-go, throughout the lifetime of the phone.

Top tip: as this mobile phone is supplied SIM free and unlocked, you have access to SIM only deals - these usually offer far better value for money - especially for all-important data plans.

You also have the option to add a foreign SIM card, so you can use this device overseas for less as well.

Additional information: manufacturers often update their Operating System (OS) software over the course of a device's lifespan - this means that your product might ship with a more advanced OS than specified.
