32gb is not enough. We can discuss all day, but at the end of it, a bigger chip doesn’t cost that much more. Let’s stop defending companies that make a shit ton on money selling inflated value phones.
Right but 32 gb isn’t 32 gb out of the box, it’s probably around 29 gb and nowadays android takes 10 gb itself so you’re only left with around 20 usable which is nothing.
And nothing is okay for people who are just using it for web browsing and streaming.
I want local music, and to be able to take pictures without worrying about storage, etc. so ~20GB isn’t enough for me, but for some people it really is fine.
You’re just limiting yourself for no reason. Don’t forget that devices tend to get slower the more full they are and not to mention your phone is using up cycles to aggressively manage internal cache. Also, the more things you have cached on your phone again is better because it doesn’t have to use resources to do work again and again.
I just checked my phone and 14 gb is used by “Temporary System Files”, whatever the hell that is but it sounds like cache is the primary use. That is not even counting the 10 GB used by Android. So it sounds like Android wants to cache as much stuff as possible.
