Software: Android 7 and up

How much RAM does the A15 have?
At least 1 GB in the smallest version sold. A copy often has less, whatever its Settings say.
Which Android versions does the A15 run?
It came with Android 7. A version older than 7 means a different phone.

Open ogphonechecker.com on the phone itself and tap Check this phone. In about 20 seconds it compares the model code, graphics chip, RAM and screen with a real A15, for free.
