This year on the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, Samsung reduced the amount of internal base storage of the Galaxy Note 10+, including just 128 GB of storage versus 256GB of last year. This apparently did not sit well with potential buyers, as they raised in our recent Note 20 Ultra review, but it makes us wonder how much internal storage you really need on your phone.
For the starting price of $ 1299, I get why some people might see this as an issue, but I’m envious if this move actually affected a large number of people. Using myself as an example, now that I’ve been using the phone for well over a week, my Note 20 Ultra is currently sitting at 88GB of available storage. There is 21GB dedicated to the system, 2GB of videos and photos, 1.2GB of games, plus 10GB of other apps and various data. 88GB seems like a lot of storage to carry, but we all live different lives and what works for me may not work for you.
Back in December of 2018, that was not so long ago, we asked our readers how much internal storage was enough. The results are surprising, seeing what we hear from people these days. Again, people said that all they needed was 64GB to 128GB of storage, with 256GB and 512GB options not getting many votes. Have your storage needs changed so much in one and a half years?
So, out of curiosity, how much internal storage do you need? Do you have hundreds of apps? Thousands of videos? I need to know!
