Why is it recommended to choose a larger memory when changing phones? Three reasons are very direct, if you don't understand, you will definitely suffer

Nowadays, the functional configuration of smartphones is rapidly improving, and the body memory is also getting larger and larger. The traditional 64GB mobile phone memory has gradually failed to meet the needs of users. It is worth mentioning that not only flagship phones, but also thousand-yuan phones start with 128GB of memory. From the perspective of daily use, 256GB mobile phones may be a more appropriate choice. Large-capacity body memory means longer service life and improved daily fluency. Next, starting from three reasons, let's take you to understand why you should buy a mobile phone with large memory.

1. User replacement cycle

China Mobile Terminal Laboratory previously released a report showing that consumers' phone replacement cycle has further lengthened, with an average replacement cycle of 25.3 months, or about every two years, which is also the highest point in history. The performance and configuration of flagship phones have been greatly improved, and the appearance design of many phones has also kept up with the trend, which is the reason for the long replacement cycle of users. As the number of 5G phone users increases, this will also increase the replacement cycle of users.

In addition, the increase in mobile phone memory is also a factor that cannot be ignored. The larger the body memory, the longer the service life can be, and the smoother the daily use of the phone will be. If you want to meet the needs of more than two years of use, a 256GB mobile phone is undoubtedly the best option. In a previous foreign survey list, 42% of users chose 128-256GB, and 23.8% of users chose 256-512GB. More than 60% of users tend to buy large-memory mobile phones.

2. Daily application APP cache increases

In the early days of smartphones, 8GB or 16GB of memory might have been enough, but now things have changed dramatically. Currently, mainstream apps occupy a huge amount of memory. For example, WeChat may occupy about 5GB after installation and update. With the increase of chat records and the accumulation of file data, it may take up more than 10G of memory in a few months. The same is true for mainstream games, such as Honor of Kings and Game for Peace. After downloading and installing, they have already eaten up a lot of memory. Each subsequent update will accumulate a certain amount of data packets, and the memory occupied by the game is also increasing.

For most users, the size of daily applications is about 80-100GB, and some are even more. Therefore, if you want to meet all application running needs, a 256GB mobile phone is a very reasonable choice, which can at least guarantee a smooth experience for two years.

3. Price difference of 256G mobile phones

Next, let's take stock of several popular flagship phones and see how their large-memory phones cost! Many friends may be more concerned, because the price difference between 128GB and 256GB phones is one of the factors for changing phones. Among the current flagship phones, the price difference between the two memory versions of the Samsung S21 is 900, with 8+128G starting at 4399 and 8+256G starting at 5299. The Samsung S21 uses a second-generation dynamic AMOLED screen and supports a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate. In terms of performance, it is equipped with a Snapdragon 888 processor and LPDDR5 memory, and it has IP68 waterproof characteristics.

The price difference between the two memory versions of the other iPhone 12 is 800, with the 128G version priced at 5999 and the 256G version priced at 6799. Its appearance adopts a right-angle frame design, and it feels good. The screen uses an OLED Super Retina XDR display, and supports HDR display and P3 wide color gamut display. In terms of performance, it uses the A14 chip, which performs well in both performance and power consumption.

Generally speaking, mobile phones with large memory can eliminate the worry of insufficient memory for work or daily entertainment, and there is no need to worry about problems such as phone freezing. Some users may choose low-memory versions to save money, but this is not necessary. Manufacturers such as OPPO have already controlled the prices of large-memory mobile phones to be very reasonable. In contrast, consumers still tend to choose the top-end versions. Judging from the current trend, 256GB mobile phones are already the first choice for many people to change phones!
