UFS 4.0 isn't quite as groundbreaking as you'd think (www.androidpolice.com)

Do you agree? There are also phones (motorola edge 50 pro) running UFS 2.2 that equal if not surpass phones running UFS 3.1 in file transfers and random read/write tests.

I think the impact is small due to encryption, the processor used and the file system optimisation that the OEM does. I remember the Nexus 6 where Full Disk Encryption was a controversial topic because it slowed down the Nexus considerably.

Here's a short video from a youtuber who does a basic test for the Edge 50 pro: https://youtube.com/shorts/EunkoOKhpuk?si=xJBwmltFLNuslyOs

And another from a different youtuber: https://youtu.be/HjVBuZfw3VQ?si=5VxbRYM3pjnQoDd-&t=52

I think we just need to look at UFS 4.0 as a really well build, and high quality LEGO block.

But it doesn't matter how cool it is, when you need to build a house, and all the other blocks are not that fancy.

But it's still a very nice looking block, so it's better to have it than not.

Makes sense?

any efficiency gain outside a bottleneck doesn’t effect the end result at all: if you make things more efficient before the bottleneck, things just pile up before; if you make things more efficient after the bottleneck your resources are just waiting for work

in the context of storage, this means that if you don’t have hardware capable of using the data provided by the storage controller, or flash capable of feeding it then really there’s no point in having it

battery efficiency is of course cumulative, but as the author points out… meh; this is a drop in the ocean
