Samsung’s new 12Gb DRAM modules allow for smartphones with 6GB of RAM

Samsung has begun mass production of the industry's first 12Gb LPDDR4 DRAM dies for mobile devices, fabricated on its 20nm manufacturing process. The new chips, which offer a 50 percent greater density than existing 8Gb dies, will allow manufacturers to offer mobile devices with more RAM than a mainstream laptop: 6GB, with four 12Gb dies in a single DRAM chip package. Phones like Samsung's own Galaxy Edge 6+ currently top out at 4GB, with 3GB being more common, even on high-end devices.
