After some extensive research I can tell you there's no downside to this as explained to this video, because the thing they call "extended" ram already exists in android by default. These companies just give you some "extra control". This I why Samsung doesn't let you disable it completely, Xiaomi has it on by default It's not a gimmick, it's a lie. It's part of android.

Ive bought Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 258 GB with 8gb RAM version about a month ago and I ve tried the +8 virtual RAM boost for about 3 weeks. I turned it off today and I HAVE TO ADMIT that the overall speed of my phone is now better (faster responce to typing, less lag on KZbin Revanced), glad to hear that even the long term health of the phone is better with the feature turned off. Anyway thank you for this video. I am not usually a big fan of Indian youtubers whose (even tho I have a English degree in pedagogy) accent is so bad I cant even understand them. This was not that case plus the video was really informative. Thank you.

ram has already an extended expectancy. usually the battery and other components will wear before the ram. for example: my phone is from 2018, I swapped the battery one time, now the problem is the antenna, which can't be swapped so I have a poor signal and an even faster battery drain.

Calling it "virtual ram" and mentioning it on product specs is absolutely a scam. Vanlla Android just straight out killing aps and not suspending their state in swap like desktop OS do (and you are not gonna kill your SSD by putting your swap disk on there if your drive and OS properly support TRIM). Swapping is not gonna rewire the entire disk dozen of times per day (which is the level modern flash memory needs to die within a few years) by just suspending KZbin on flash a lot. This should just be a standart Android feature and not be advertised anywhere near the hardware RAM specs.

It isn't 8gb ram already enough? This video made me clear that it better turning virtual ram off. I also searched an article on internet that did benchmark on 2 different phone. A 4GB real ram + 4GB virtual ram perfomance's is still inferior to 8GB real ram when playing games.
