Theres also a crazy amount of enterprise purchases who dont care about storage. Everything is stored off device, and an MDM is keeping whats on the device to a minimum.
Companies would still be buying 32GB by the truckfull if it was available. Apple was right to discontinue it because 32GB wasnt enough to run the OS anymore, while also being a usable phone.
Since you cant run a phone without iOS, and stripping the OS down isnt an option, I think they should be legally required to be truthful in advertising and sell it as a 50-55GB iPhone, probably 50 if they plan on using some of the space for device upgrades.

- scarface74 7y agoYou also can’t take video or pictures at the resolution of the newer iPhones - requiring more storage.
- gowld 7y agoDoesn't Apple support deleting builtin apps from the phone now?
- sdtransier 7y agoYou can remove the icons from the home screen, but it doesn’t actually delete the app from the device storage. They’ve said that’s in case you need or want one of the apps again; it’ll “reinstall” essentially instantly.

There's virtually no commercial reason for 95% of enterprise users to have a Pro version. A Pro version for most of 2020 that can shoot multiple videos at the same time in 4k, with 64gb... I don't know, doesn't sit well with me. I'm all for keeping the base model basic and as low-cost as possible to those who needn't anything more. But then either reasonably price your storage, or create a 128gb option in between, especially if you don't allow SD cards. And especially when Apple is just fine offering 128gb on the 11, but not the Pro... It's a bit much.
- basch 7y agoNot that its an enterprise case, but personally id get the Pro for the OLED screen moreso than the camera. Id maybe bet the other reason they dont offer 128 on the pro is supply chain related, they have all their 128 dedicated to the standard model.
- arvinsim 7y agoThere is no need to do mental gymnastics on this. The reason is simple: profit.
