Buttons 

If we talk about the button then it is very easy to use them for running Samsung smartphones as their layout is very simple, and normal users can understand it easily.

Do you find Samsung One UI 4.1 RAM Plus useful?

Per the Galaxy users’ feedback, there are no changes in apps performance whether the RAM Plus feature is enabled or not. While the company claims to improve the performance of the system and third-party apps with virtual RAM, users deny the claim apparently.

If we go with the collective responses for RAM Plus, a thing is common the Galaxy owners are not so satisfied with the usability of this feature. Samsung, on the other hand, promises to improve the applications’ performance when the RAM Plus feature is “ON” on the Galaxy devices running One UI 4.
