Apple’s iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max have a problem. They’re fantastic new smartphones that are by far the most powerful and most capable handsets Apple has ever made, but they’re being held back. The problem is actually all too familiar to Apple fans, who will recall something similar just 2 short years ago. Apple’s iOS 11 software was a disaster from the get-go, riddled with aggravating bugs and flaws. Among them, the most annoying to power users was the terrible RAM management issue that prevented iPhones from keeping app statuses saved in the background. As a result, the entire user experience was slowed down because an app would have to load fresh every single time it opened, even if it was just a minute or two after being minimized. Sadly, the same exact thing is now happening in iOS 13, which is something of a mystery considering the fact that last year’s iOS 12 release was so focused on bug fixes and optimizations. iOS 12 sped phones up, increased battery life, and thankfully it also fixed the annoying RAM optimization issue. What happened between then and now is anyone’s guess.
There’s no question whatsoever that Apple’s iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max are the most powerful smartphones on the planet. In fact, they obliterate Android flagships and nothing out there from Android vendors even come close… on paper. In the real world, however, it’s a different story. In fact, we’ve seen several different Android phones beat Apple’s newest flagship iPhones in real-world speed tests. There’s no telling when Apple will finally get around to fixing this troublesome issue in iOS 13. In the meantime, Samsung just made an announcement that its mid-range phones are about to get a major upgrade that might have helped Apple avoid the new RAM management issue altogether.
