Frequently asked questions

LPDDR5X, which evolved from LPDDR5, was designed to improve data transfer rates, power efficiency, bandwidth, density and overall performance for mobile devices.

LPDDR5X’s benefits are most noticeable in tasks that require rapid data access and processing while consuming relatively low power. These mobile applications benefit the most from LPDDR5X:

  1. High-end gaming: LPDDR5X allows for smoother gameplay, faster loading times and improved overall performance.
  2. Camera and image processing: LPDDR5X helps process and store images and videos quickly.
  3. AI and machine learning: Applications that use on-the-edge AI and machine learning models for tasks like image recognition and language processing benefit from faster RAM for quicker data access during edge computation.
  4. Augmented and virtual reality: AR and VR applications demand high-performance hardware like RAM. LPDDR5X helps provide a more immersive and responsive experience in AR and VR apps.

Other data-heavy applications such as multitasking, navigating and mapping, video editing and rendering are more likely to benefit substantially from LPDDR5X DRAM.

LPDDR5X and LPDDR5 are both types of mobile DRAM used in smartphones and other mobile devices. But LPDDR5X offers improvements in terms of speed, power efficiency at higher performance levels, and lower latency.
 

LPDDR5 was more commonly found in smartphones, but LPDDR5X is expected to become more widespread in high-end flagship devices.
