Much like the Vivo V21 and realme 8 series, RAM Plus enables Galaxy A52s 5G users to convert ROM (onboard storage capacity) into RAM of equivalent size. However, unlike the other brands, Samsung’s tool does not offer the option to customise a specific amount, and sets 4GB as the default for conversion.
