    128 GB has been more than enough for me for over 8years ? I haven’t gotten a phone with more than that… I am currently at 72GB/128GB storage and most of that is Apps. I do go and archive photos and videos off my phone from time to time however.

    If you NEVER delete anything, sure, you will run out. Or if you are super heavy into photos and video maybe but it is still A LOT of storage on a phone.

        I’d say you’re probably a minority nowadays with music stored locally. More and more people have moved to some kind of streaming platform.

          I know, but so much of the music I enjoy is not found on streaming services, and I already had 1000+ albums in my collection by the time they came out, all rated and organized. Plus I travel a lot and don’t always have data, so streaming services don’t really work for me. I pay one for the family but hardly use it myself.

      One hour of 360 video is roughly 60GB. Process that video and export it and you get a lot of data as well. I would not call it being super heavy on video to have one hour of source material on your phone, which you could not do right now.

      360 photos are roughly 150MB each.

      Storage is cheap, but sold at a very high mark-up.
