I love this angry MacRumors posts towards apple! Hopefully they will listen or read anything written here!!!
No it came in a 4gb and 8gb option.The original iPhone had 8GB of storage
It's not free upgrades, throughout years Apple phones have become more expensive and while some of it has to do with more elaborate and expensive tech built into said phones, some things like RAM and storage have become way less expensive per GB.The problem on MR is that too many people expect Apple to give free upgrades. And there is also users who think that if they need more than 128GB, everyone else does.
Many users really don’t need more. Increasing the storage wouldn’t be cost-neutral if Apple wants to maintain their profit, because they would be losing the current 256 GB sales. So you’re really arguing for Apple to reduce their margins.Storage is so incredibly dirt cheap "nothing" for Apple on these and it would enormously benefit a lot of users to have 256 across the board ... and make those phones have a lot more longevity and a better experience with more of their files on device (locally stored full res photos and music)
If you're truly an Apple fan, you would be for this change. After all, as an Apple fan, you want better products, no? So being against this change is fundamentally contradicting.Your retort has nothing to do with what I said.
Yeah, the whole iCloud storage thing bothers me significantly more than 128GB base storage.That's arguably more criminal than 128 GB base storage.
I did get 256 GB for my iPhone 15 pro, even if I considered going for the base 128.
I didn't _actually_ need it:

This includes all the Apple Intelligence stuff... I think I was at about 48 GB for the longest time...
Of course they (we) can. My 128GB iPhone has 66GB free. I'm not that unusual.I disagree. A lot of people can easily get by with 128GB.
Just because I am an Apple fan doesn't mean I should change my position and agree with others. Your retort is logical fallacy. .If you're truly an Apple fan, you would be for this change. After all, as an Apple fan, you want better products, no? So being against this change is fundamentally contradicting.
I have a 256 GB phone (minimum for my model), and use less than 100 GB of it - with a ton of apps and caches in use.I disagree. A lot of people can easily get by with 128GB.

I never understand how people act like Apple literally doesn't have all the information about how much storage people are using. If this was really an issue or becoming an issue for too large of a group Apple would up the storage. The fact that they haven't really simply means it isn't.
No, it was IBM.“640k ought to be enough for anybody.” - Tim Apple (probably)
I’m the same way and that’s because I keep all my photos in the cloud and not on my phone.I did get 256 GB for my iPhone 15 pro, even if I considered going for the base 128.
