What do you think of iPhone Memory (RAM) Size today?

Unfortunately, iPhone 16 series don’t get any increment in RAM size when you compare them with previous generation iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max. But the good thing, now all models of iPhone 16 series are equipped with 8GB of RAM (yes, the gaps between the Pro and Pro Max models with the normal and plus models are getting thinner and thinner). With Apple Intelligence coming to iOS and AAA games, other apps and 3rd party games – that get more complicated and more graphic intensive available on App Store, hopefully the latest iPhone 16 series won’t struggle to handle all those tasks with only 8GB of RAM. Anyway, today there’s still a lot of smartphones from the competitor (read: Android) also sold with 8GB of RAM. Same goes to many Mac or Windows PC laptops or desktops, they too, are sold with 8GB of RAM. So really not so bad for iPhone 16 series having only 8GB RAM. What are your thoughts on the latest iPhone 16 series RAM?
