Hey Vicigers! Who still uses a smartphone in 2021 with 16GB of internal storage? Come on confess! Comfortable? Of course not. How can it be comfortable, new istall several chat applications, social media, plus some light games, uh, the internal memory immediately fills up when you want to use it to take photos or videos. Actually there's nothing wrong with 16GB of internal memory in 2021 and even some of us, surely there are still those who use smartphones with 8GB of internal storage.
This is a problem because the current application mainstream which we often use, such as chat applications (Whatsapp, Line, Telegram, etc.) and social media (Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, TikTok, etc.) really need a lot of storage usage on our smartphones, try to check on your smartphone system, how many gigabytes are spent for whatsapp application? Must be more than 1GB right? Especially for those of you who follow a lot of groups and often save photos or videos on the WhatsApp application, surely the storage that has been used will be more than 2GB or 3GB.
Not just an application chat and social media that eat up a lot of internal memory, but some of your games too. Indeed, when it comes to the Play Store/App Store, only a few hundred megabytes have been downloaded, for example, on the Play Store, Mobile Legend is only 104MB, Genshin Impact is 400 MB, Free Fire and PUBG Mobile is 600 MB, as well as games other. But do you know that these games will actually download files again when you enter the game? Try to check if you don't trust your smartphone system, for example for Genshin Impact, when you have entered the game, the game will ask for permission to downloading resources which is not half-hearted up to 9GB more. Fantastic isn't it? 16GB isn't enough, especially if you often play a lot of games, both light to moderate, because of course the 16GB capacity is sure your current smartphone isn't equipped with the latest generation Snapdragon 6xx/7xx series chipset, right?
In our opinion, from the results of personal use experience and the experiences of other people, it is valid that a comfortable capacity for a smartphone in 2021 is one that is equipped with 64GB of internal memory or more. This will help a little if you are an 'opreker', you might be able to overcome the lack of internal memory by changing the default storage to microSD, in fact not many people want to bother like that? In addition to 64GB of internal memory, of course you also need RAM support at least 4GB if you can, but even if your RAM is still 3GB it's not a big deal, until you are not interested in playing Genshin Impact and several other games on your smartphone with capable graphics and performance.

Tips from us, you should never leave smartphone storage below 1GB, more than that if possible. This will result in a decrease in performance that you will immediately feel on your smartphone, aka your smartphone will lag, because the Android OS itself also has a minimum requirements for storage so that it can run properly. Likewise, certain games and applications also have a minimum requirementsso that the game or application can also run optimally.
