Help RAM Type in HTC Sensation?

[jggonzalez]

Does anyone know what type of RAM is used in the HTC Sensation? 768MB sounds low, but if it is DDR2 then it should be fine. I've looked in several spec listings and don't find a specific mention of what type of RAM is used.

No idea but my bet is that it's DDR... HTC always put 768mb DDR in the phones these days like they did on the Desire HD, Desire S, Incredible S etc...

Does that sound like enough RAM? I keep hearing about phones like the Samsung that have 8 GB or more. If I get a Sensation I plan to put a 16gb class 10 card in it, but will that make up for the small amount of RAM, or will I start encountering programs I can't run?

RAM = Random Access Memory - ie. memory that actively running software uses for what it needs

the 8 gigs or more you're referring to (and the sd cards) is for storing data
no phone i know of has more than 1 gig of ram

Yeah mrqs is right. its RAM not storage - 768mb is fine

It's LPDDR2, per Qualcomm.
