If you have ever used pen drive as virtual RAM for laptop and PCs, then you will understand it. Even if you haven't done it, then we tell you how it works.
What is the concept of Virtual RAM?
Smartphones or computers have an operating system and memory management is done only by this. Virtual RAMs are temporary and are designed to work by combining RAM and hard disk space.
If too many tasks are running simultaneously in the smartphone and the RAM is low, then the virtual memory transfers the data to the paging file.

Vivo has said that virtual RAM will prove beneficial during multitasking. Because as soon as there is a shortage of RAM in multitasking, a part of the internal storage will be used as virtual memory.
However, for virtual RAM, it is obvious that the internal memory of this smartphone will have to be kept free. There is 12GB of RAM, so if you always keep it free from 3GB of storage, then if needed, you will use 3GB of phone storage.
The good thing is that this is not a manual. That means you will not need to do anything. If needed, the phone will do this work itself. This feature will prove beneficial for gamers and heavy multi taskers.
