Infinix is rolling out the software-based change as an over-the-air (OTA) update for both the Note 11 and Note 11S, and it will reach all users in the coming days. You can look for the update on your phone by going to Settings > System > System Update > Online Update.

The feature will come into effect automatically when the RAM is not sufficient to ensure smooth performance, the company said. This means that users will not be able to manually enable any settings on their phones to access the RAM change.

It is important to mention that Infinix is not the only smartphone manufacturer to offer extended RAM on its new phones. Companies including Realme, Samsung, Vivo, and Xiaomi have provided similar features on their phones to use the inbuilt storage as RAM.
