It can be seen that many people are spending more and more time on mobile phones today.
In addition, according to IDC statistics, during the first half of 2021, China's mobile phone market shipments were 164 million units, an increase of 6.5% year-on-year. Obviously, with the continuous progress and improvement of science and technology, electronic intelligent products have entered everyone's life. As we all know, there are many mobile phone manufacturers in China, such as Huawei, Apple, Xiaomi, OPPO, etc., thanks to the continuous improvement of technology, major manufacturers are also frequently launching new mobile phones.
Among them, the most recent topic should be September 15, Apple announced at the press conference that it will be released on the 24th Apple 13, which has also caused many consumers to want to change the impulse to change their mobile phones. Generally speaking, users will consider its price and memory size before changing mobile phones, most consumers in the comparison of "128GB" and "256GB", think that the former price is cheaper, and there is no difference in use, and then choose 128GB mobile phone.
On the choice of mobile phone memory, there are also professional insiders who give insights and advise consumers that it is best not to buy 128GB mobile phones.
Lots of software and large memory
Generally speaking, after replacing a new mobile phone, everyone will often spend a day to install various required functional software into the new mobile phone. According to the current mobile phone download platform, if a new mobile phone, it must have QQ, WeChat and other types of social software at the same time; Tmall, Taobao, Jingdong and other e-commerce platforms; king glory, peace elite and other games. It may be that after installation, the phone memory will be about 30% occupied.
In addition, the download and installation of software is only one aspect, due to the continuous improvement of Today's Internet technology, users often receive update prompts from the background when using software, and every software update requires the phone to have enough memory space to complete the installation.
Software data occupies a large amount of memory
As we all know, WeChat should be the best of all the communication function software in the current mobile phone, the age range basically covers from old to small, and in the process of users using WeChat, the background will automatically store a large number of chat records in WeChat, including photos, files, text and voice and other content. Basically, after a month of using a new mobile phone, the memory occupied by WeChat may reach about 10G.
In addition, at present, there are many mobile phones in the mobile phone market that focus on "taking pictures of ultra-high definition", usually the photos and videos generated by such mobile phones need relatively large storage space, such as a video of about ten minutes, if you shoot and save through the "100 million pixels" mobile phone, then it may occupy the memory of 1G of the mobile phone.
In addition, there are currently many mobile phone users are office workers, and the mobile phone as an office, basically will put a large amount of work content in the mobile phone, long-term accumulation, 128GB of memory may be more tight, and once the memory is full, to let the owner initialize the phone, it is basically impossible.
256GB value for money
Nowadays, major mobile phone manufacturers have 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB for consumers to choose from in the memory capacity of high-end smartphones, taking the upcoming Apple 13 as an example, and even launching 1TB of memory capacity.
According to the current pre-sale information on Apple's official website, the starting price of the same iPhone 13,256GB is only 800 yuan more expensive than 128GB, and at the same time, compared with the price of 512GB, it is 1600 yuan cheaper. Obviously, there is also a significant gap in price between different memory.
For the Apple 13 with 256GB of memory, the price can be said to be "less than the top, more than the bottom", the difference of 800 yuan, the memory capacity is more than doubled. As for 512GB and 1TB, for most consumers, in a year, unless it is a work demand, it will not be used up, but most of the memory space will remain, and the cost performance is certainly not as high as 256GB.
