- LoSboccacc 9y agoI guess you don't get many pictures or constantly offloads them. sure 16gb model is fine for standard usage plus maybe a handful apps, but hd videos eat lot of space.
- eru 9y agoWhy would anyone not offload pictures and videos taken off their phone?
- icebraining 9y agoTo be able to see and show them everywhere without having to download them.
- eru 9y agoOK, sure. I'd count that as local caching---ie still offload as soon as possible, but keep the local copy for as long as you have space. Though aren't connections in the developed world fast enough that you can just download/stream them on-demand? (For lots of pictures and videos, you can keep a lower quality version on the device as a compromise---but not sure whether Google Photos or Apple does that by default?)
- icebraining 9y agoThough aren't connections in the developed world fast enough that you can just download/stream them on-demand? The problem isn't so much the speed but the caps, if you're not on Wifi. I don't know anyone who has more than 5GB/month, and HD video will eat that in less than an hour.
- eru 9y agoI'm on a nominally unlimited pay-as-you-go plan in the UK for about 25 GBP a month. I regularly do 20+ GB over 4g a month. The UK isn't ahead of the rest of the world here, is it? (Google paid for my mobile data in the last few years before that, so I am out on the loop on general prices.)
- LoSboccacc 9y agoyes and I used to do that when pictures didn't count towards your icloud storage cap, but then got fucked by Apple change of policy
