The deviceMemory read-only property of the Navigator interface returns the approximate amount of device memory in gigabytes. This value is an approximation given by rounding down to the nearest power of 2 and dividing that number by 1024. Also, the lower and upper bounds are used to protect privacy of owners of very low- or high-end devices.
Syntax

Value
A floating point number, one of 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8.
