My OnePlus 3T is nearly 4 years old now and has 6GB (and is really showing its age...)


What's the use case of having so much ram on a smartphone ? Gaming?


Allowing app developers to not worry about optimization, put more trackers and more annoying ads...


App-switching (multitasking) without LRU apps getting force-closed to make room for active apps. In other words, if you like to keep apps open, more RAM will reduce the chances of an app opened a while ago having to "start fresh" when you switch back to it, losing whatever state it had when you last used it.
