I believe you are referring to storage, which in my opinion the bare minimum is 512GB with the high needs of apps added on with media like photos, videos etc.
I think 256gb good enough if one is tidy and disciplined.

Bare minimum quite difficult ah, for me at least. :o
ya lor. so it depends on the individual. there are people who have 101 of the same photo. whereas there are some with unique photos.

either cause they selectively take or they actually do a proper clean up every now and then. so is about discipline.
512gb storage is the balance one now
what you mean balance?

Yup, but 512 will be good to last for a while compared to 256 definitely.

I believe he meant 512 is a balance between excessive and insufficient. :s13:

lol for sure.

But then if one is hardly using 1/2 of 256 then it’s hardly justify going higher than that right.

then might as well say go 1 TB also. Can go even longer.

ya for sure. different people usage habits different. so for sure no one size fits all
Definitely, so one has to assess and then go along with their needs.
Nowadays stopped yearly upgrades so 512/1TB are the ones I go for, but for faster movement then 256GB will be ideal when one is selling off when upgrading since market demand is higher.
