I have to say that the memory of mobile phones is too cheap now.
The vivo X70 Pro+ released in 2021 costs a full 1,000 yuan to upgrade from 256GB to 512GB.
The vivo X90 Pro+ released in 2022, the same 256GB upgraded to 512GB, but only 500 yuan.
Not only flagship phones, but even mid-range phones are playing the big memory popularization storm.
Realme GT Neo5 SE, Redmi Note 12 Turbo, two models of 1TB storage version can be bought for more than 2,000, it is true to buy a friend who bought a large memory as a nail in previous years with a knife to pull the ass - open the eyes.
But then again, the average person doesn't need 1TB of memory at all. Under normal circumstances, mobile phone system + system common software + photos, videos and other backups, 128GB may not be enough, but 256GB should be more than enough.
And when Lan Yi also thought so, one comment after another hit his face at the speed of light.
In 2012, mainstream communication, video, shopping and other APP, the volume of the installation package can be said to be very conscientious~
WeChat 6.9MB, QQ 2.2MB, Weibo 4.8MB, Youku 2.9MB.
By 2022, WeChat has become 253MB and QQ 367MB, skyrocketing dozens or even hundreds of times.
And chat software like WeChat, the volume of the installation package can only be a younger brother in front of the chat history. Normal people have a few gigabytes of chat files, while people with work fill up their 128GB mobile phones in minutes.
Even the colleagues in blue clothes, WeChat accounted for more than 200 G, plus the photo directly squeezed the iPhone 13 Pro Max 1TB Yuanfeng Blue. Asked why he didn't change the machine, he said wait until Apple came out with a 2TB version to change, otherwise it would be useless to change, so that the blue clothes were powerless to refute it.
Not only people around him complained about WeChat, but Jiang Shengnan, the author of "The Biography of Miyue", also "praised" WeChat. claimed that WeChat not only eats mobile phone memory, but also computer memory, and got her C drive to a red line warning, and spent two devices at a time.
In principle, this is the ghost of WeChat will repeatedly store files.
For example, if you share the same photo with ten friends, WeChat will help you copy and paste it ten times.
Put in once, ten times the output, Zhang Xiaolong, you are really a little cute.
In many cases, stored chat files are not necessarily useful. If the image is not viewed after a while, it will show that the picture is out of date.
At this time, this expired image still occupies your memory space. Unless you don't want this chat history anymore, this expired picture will have to live with you for the rest of your life.
Don't chat history, I'll quit the group, okay?
Sorry, after leaving the group, it is not to delete the chat history, the space that should be occupied is the same, the memory that should be eaten is the same, and the one who pays attention to is a arrogant.
In fact, from the perspective of industry development, the expansion of a series of apps such as WeChat is not audacious, but really has no opponent.
For example, Didi, the leading app in the taxi industry, has attracted customers with various coupons and discounts in its initial development. In the medium term, it merged with other mobility companies and expanded rapidly. In the later stage, it has become the maker of industry rules, and it is inevitable to increase the price of taxi and make money back at this time.
And WeChat took the same path as Didi, through the conversion of QQ's user pool, killed competitors such as Mi Chat, Yixin, and Huixin, and became the first brother in the industry.
Today, the monthly activity of WeChat and WeChat has reached 1.319 billion, considering foreign users and other factors, it is conservatively estimated that more than 60% of citizens use WeChat, and WeChat has become one of the indispensable software in China.
Even if I suck, you can't live without me.
This is the confidence of WeChat, and it is also the confidence of other industry leading apps.
Therefore, in the view of Lanyi, the decline in memory prices has not brought much substantial improvement to users. In the era of gradual inflation, memory is also depreciating with the expansion of APP. This 618,1TB phone I rushed.
