Negatives - only 128gb storage

WTF who writes this shite?

My phone has 256gb storage and it's constantly full. Next phone I'm getting needs to have 1tb+ storage

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago (2 children)

what do you use that storage for? could you send a screenshot about the storage usage statistics?

I have so many apps that I rarely use and I still only have used 45 GB. I use an sd card for the media, though, and a lot of app backups that you probably can't do anyway, but that's not much of a difference

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Mostly media

"Others" is just more media it's not counting for some reason

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

hmm I see. what kind of media is that, movies and music or pictures and recorded videos? if it's the latter, you don't have a computer at home right?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

It's all of the above. I do have computer and self host plex but I need to keep some of the stuff locally because I travel a lot

45G is often the size of the OS nowadays. :/ Mine is 30G by itself. The rest of my 128G is taken up by apps/photos/videos I could admittedly clean up. I also have a 512GB SD card I use to carry my entire music library (well, a compressed version).

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

on my device, calyx os takes 22 GB, and I think this is a lot. I can't understand what takes 45 GB in a system. Technically probably it's only half of it used at a time because of A/B partitions, but half of that is still a lot

Lol Samsung A-Series still has microSD cards. 1TB sd card go brrrr

(just watch samsung pull the sd slot from the A-series too ๐Ÿ˜ญ)

I suppose it's bad if you play a lot of mobile games or you're a grandparent, but it's more than enough for everyone else.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

"Or if you're a grandparent"? What makes you say this?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Lots of pics and vids of the grandkids, maybe?
