    I think 128GB should be the minimum. A lot reserved for the operating system and the rest for storage hungry applications. At least save local map data and some music

      I have 32GB of storage and I’m sitting at around 22GB used with all of my apps.

      128GB seems like way over kill especially if you factor in the cost. It doesn’t make sense for a cheap device.

          Except maybe it isn’t needed?

          I would have no use for that much. Why waste the hardware? If you need that much just buy a device with a higher capacity. Don’t force it on everyone.

          16GB is to low because it falls short in many uses. 32GB is just about right for a lot of people and 64GB is excellent. I’m not sure why you would want 256GB. Phone storage shouldn’t be relied on for important things like photos since your phone can get destroyed in many different ways.

            Your point is valid but I’ve never actually had a phone get destroyed. Is it common for that to happen?
