    Not arguing your point, because flash storage is so cheap now, but honestly why do people need so much local storage on their phones?

    I’ve got a Pixel 6 Pro with 128GB, and I’ve never come close to filling it in the 2 years I’ve had the phone. That’s with offline maps, YouTube downloads, Spotify downloads, tons of photos and videos. My local storage is less than 50% full still.

    I’m genuinely curious as to what people are storing on their phones that is requiring them to have more than 128GB of local storage.

      Lots of Spotify playlists, podcasts, photos/videos, and a few backup games for me! I’m currently at 244.7 GB used out of 512 GB and barely use my data.

      A large book and video collection for offline viewing can use a lot of space. Mobile internet isn’t readily available everywhere.

      I have a crap ton of music offline and regularly take 4k60 videos on my P7. The feature exists, why hinder the phone’s ability to use it? I would have gotten the 256gb model but for some reason it wasn’t sold in India :/

      Not to mention, just “System” itself seems to take 30+GB space on my phone?

      64GB could be tight for me. But 128GB is roomy.

      And the risk of having 256GB is that maybe I end up doing a backup every 24 months (when it gets full) and if I lose my phone more gigabytes are lost as well.
