The iPhone 13 is rumored to offer a 1TB storage tier. That's crazy: Compare that to Apple's own M1 MacBook Pro, which starts at just 256GB.
How to choose the RIGHT storage capacity for your iPhone 15?
The current iPhone, the iPhone 12, is available with a maximum of 512 MB. That's already a lot of storage space for a phone. So what on earth does Apple have in mind? What applications require such a bottomless pit of storage space? Two things: photos and videos.
“The photos and videos we take and share with our phones are higher resolution and larger file sizes than ever before,” Naomi Assaraf, co-founder of cloudHQ, told Lifewire via email.
“We don't often think about it, but most of us have a huge number of media files on our phones, and most of us also store them in the cloud.”
