RAM comparison for different Android versions
With every Android version, we expect them to be more feature rich and user friendly and also to deliver the better performances with more battery life but sometimes this may go the other way as with every Android version instead of lighter android experience, we get something which consumes more RAM and thus leaving lesser RAM/memory for user to utilize them for multitasking or heavy gaming.
In this post, I will be comparing the available RAM/free memory for the user with different android version. Being a user for multiple android versions, I have seen them all and experienced them all.
Android 2.3 (Gingerbread)- I used the android 2.3 version on my Samsung device which had only 256 MB RAM but still I was able to perform the tasks and still around 50-60 MB left as free memory. Yes that phone did not support any kind of heavy gaming of old times like even temple run and was able to perform the basic tasks like Facebook, WhatsApp etc.
Now let's talk about only with respect to Honor phones and the widely used android version i.e. Kitkat, Lollipop ad Marshmallow.
Android 4.4 (Kitkat) (HONOR 4X) -This is still my favorite android version because this is feature rich android version yet provided optimal performance and better battery backup compared to other version. Out of 1.8 GB available for the user, when I boot the phone, I still get 1.36 GB of free RAM this being the highest I have noted so far in any 2 GB RAM phone and phone does pretty well in terms of performance, multitasking etc. I liked the RAM management on Kitkat so much that I even though of flashing the Kitkat ROM on my Honor 5x but unfortunately that is not avaialble as Hnor 5X was launched directly with Lollipop.

Android 5.0/5.1 (lollipop) (HONOR 5X)-This is feature rich and provide some additional feature over previous versions but when it comes to free available memory, it does lag behind the Kitkat version. I have seen the maximum free RAM up to 1.21 GB on boot and when I really compare this version for battery, it does pretty well but not as good as Kitkat

Android 6.0/6.1 (Marshmallow) (HONOR 5X) - one of the major changes that Marshmallow brings in is Doze effect and battery optimization but when checked for the available RAM, its lags behind the Lollipop version. You read it right, Marshmallow free RAM is less than 1 GB on boot and sometimes phone lags while multi-tasking. (Still a beta version or stable one that is not fully optimize) but I have seen battery improved compared to Lollipop version
