Is 32gb enough

Anonymous

I have a 32gb iPhone 7, but not sure if 32gb is enough. I use the phone to make calls and send texts, photos and videos, emails and internet, Facebook and music and have iCloud on the the phone

Depends what you store on your phone. I have a 32GB 7 Plus which I store mainly music, photos & essential apps & still have enough spare alongside iCloud

As long as you store music and videos on a cloud service you should be OK, but if you like to store stuff on your phone, it will fill up quickly.

Bear in mind that, unless you pay extra, standard free iCloud storage is only 5gb, so not a huge amount of space available.

I would imagine the OS​would take up around 5gb so that needs to be taken into account.

Wow so that leaves 22gb available. Not a lot these days without any expandable storage. I would be looking at 64gb minimum.

My advice - get more. I know it costs more but imagine not having to worry about it all the time. I've just gone from 64 to 256Gb and I have zero stress. I can just add stuff without having to think if I need to delete something first. To me, it's worth every penny smiling

That's the beauty of android. Wap a 128 or 256 sd card in and no worries at all for very little cost. Nothing against Apple but the difference in price between models is huge and people on a budget have to compromise.
