Recently we heard rumors that the iPhone 16 Pro may ditch the 128GB model and offer 256GB of storage as standard — a move I support wholeheartedly. It often feels like 128GB doesn’t go very far any more, and I’ve got to the point where I need to start freeing up space on my phone by offloading some files to the cloud.
This is far from the first time I’ve had to deal with this problem. It’s the second time I’ve needed to free up space on my current phone, a Google Pixel 6 Pro, and it’s happened multiple times on some of the phones I had before that. Though go back a few more years and it stopped being a problem because phones still had microSD cards, and had a seemingly-infinite amount of space.
