The X has 3gb of RAM, this is one of the drivers moving me to upgrade

Yeah, the X is nice, but when I trying it out I felt a slight bit of sluggishness - like when the 6 was newly released.

A high jump in resolution/PPI will do that.

It really should have shipped with 4GB of memory.

Why? The iPhone 8 doesn't even have the 3GB that the X has and it's been deemed the fastest smartphone ever tested. That sounds like a case of valuing specs more than the actual usage.
