I'm just wondering if there is a limit and whether there are advantages compared to the 8GB models.

TIA!

All that would be different is the number of tabs which reside in memory rather than automatically refreshing. When switching tabs.

!6 GB should allow around twice as many tabs as 8GB (more or less)
Wouldn't the actual number vary, depending on the content on each tab?

I don't think so. On iOS, it seems like the limit is 500.

OK... That's better than my answer.
So, more RAM would mean faster response (because fewer reloads), but not a real difference in the number of tabs possible.
Sounds good to me. What do you think?

Best feature is auto close tabs after 24 hours. I wish they had like a five hour feature.
