iPhone 6+ memory. How are you 64gb buyers ...

Had 32GB 5S now with 64GB 6 Plus and running low on space. Never thought I'd use up so much so quickly. Unlike most, it seems 128GB might have been the right one for me, even though there would have been a lot of excess space with the 128GB.

If you store your photos and music the right way 64gb is more than enough! I would struggle with a 16gb with videos and pictures alone.

What's the ideal or 'right way' to store photos and music?
 
16GB holder here! I am not suffering from any space issues at all! Just keep things simple,efficient and deleting ridiculous number of photos that I would never look at in the future.

Maybe use a streaming service or iTunes Match. Then maybe use iCloud photos or some upload service like Dropbox or onedrive. Keeps the photos in the cloud but not the phone.

Honestly, 64GB is the sweet spot unless you're just a hoarder of multimedia. I can't even fathom using more than 64GB unless I stock my phone with all sorts of movies and music I rarely ever watch or listen to.

I don't listen to much music, I have around 2GB of music on my iPhone and usually listen to it when I'm commuting on the tube/metro where there's no cellular signal so cloud streaming is not really ideal, even with offline mode. Also, I despise storing photos on the cloud - I'd rather keep photos stored on my device and access it instantly than having to wait a few seconds for the image to download and view it in a higher res. I think you might have gathered that I'm not a strong fan or user of cloud services :) - I just don't find them a useful solution for accessing files regularly and reliably.
 
I have the 128, got 94GB left currently.

64 would have done me perfectly , but Vodafone didn't have any and no idea when stock was coming.
 
16GB on the ATT next plan is $5 cheaper per month than the 64GB.
16GB on the ATT Next plan is $10 cheaper per month than the 128GB

I only store photos on my phone, no music or games. I ended up getting the 16GB phone, enabling iCloud photo library so all my photos go straight to the cloud. 200GB for 3.99 a month. More storage and is way cheaper for me than buying a 64 or 128GB phone..

This may not work for everyone but in my case it made sense!
