Should you buy a 32-bit or 64-bit phone? and what is the difference between?


Often when you want to buy a new smartphone, the most important features you focus on are RAM, a better camera, a large internal memory or a high-capacity battery. This is not a mistake, it is also a result of what is displayed in ads to attract customers. But rarely any attention is paid to the processor, the basic component on your phone which will determine its performance.
 
32-bit or 64-bit phone processor
 
The processor is certainly one of the most important things you should be sure of when you want to buy any phone, computer or other device, and the processors in the current computers and phones are divided into two standards, 32 home and 64 home.

Apple's IOS has been supporting 64-bit since the seventh release, and Android has been using 64-bit architecture since ARMv8 and Android Lollipop. So, the question arises, is there any difference between 32-bit and 64-bit smart phones? Which one should I buy? We will try to answer these questions as soon as possible so you can make your own decision.


Before that you should know what is "bit"?


Unlike our analog world, computers can understand and operate only in digital form, ie using '0 and 1'. The "bit" is the smallest piece of data, and can have a binary value of either 0 or 1. Eight of these bits will equal the byte. Either KB, MB or GB that we use in our daily lives is a larger set of bytes.

The first processor was Intel's "Intel 4004" of a 4-bit architecture.

32-bit processors versus 64-bit processors

Logical and logical operations are performed within the processor using so-called records, so it is logical that 64-bit processors will be faster in executing and processing operations than a standard 32-bit processor, and the difference will also be in the size of the data storage. 32 values. This means that the device is limited to using 4GB of memory with a 32-bit processor, even if the processor can handle more. The 64-bit processor can handle 18.4-megabytes of memory. Such a large amount of memory is not yet required for practical purposes.

64-bit processors can handle more data per second than 32-bit processors. This is because the 32-bit CPU can handle only 4 bytes of data per unit cycle (8 x 4 = 32). 64-bit processors do not need to go back to memory as do 32-bit processors. Consequently, 64-bit processors work faster than their 32-bit counterparts.


What is the best smartphone? 32 bit or 64 bit?

As described previously, a 32-bit phone can only support up to 4GB of RAM. With applications demanding more and more resources these days, 4GB Ram soon will not be enough. This is why we see the emergence of high-end phones with 6GB or more of RAM and are being marketed in the world as the leading and soon to be the rule. Among the advantages of such a memory is that you will not notice the device being stopped and those occasional periods during multitasking.

The most obvious change in the 64-bit operating system will be the performance of the device. In android, it is due to changing the processor architecture from ARMv7 to ARMv8. The newer design is much more energy-efficient and much faster because it can fetch data faster than the 32-bit ARMv7. Furthermore, the logs are almost doubled in ARMv8. This is changing the desired change because now the processor will take less time to fetch data from memory. Therefore, applications will load faster, and the interface will be more responsive.

As for applications, many are still in Apple Store and the Google Play store is running on the 32-bit operating system. This is because applications written for the 32-bit platform can also work on a 64-bit platform. But applications developed for the 64-bit processor can only be run on a 64-bit processor. Many applications also provide two versions of the same application to run on both platforms efficiently.
Among the latest decisions for Google is that it will become dependent only on 64-bit applications in its Google Play store with the beginning of 2019.

How to check if your device is 32-bit or 64-bit?
On iPhone phones, all phones with the IOS7 and higher are 64-bit. Either the Android phone phone comes with the ARMV8 is a 64-bit device.
