Surprisingly I have 85 apps installed, kind of hard to believe I have that many on the phone.
Google photos is my guaranteed safe backup so I’m confident that will meet all my…

24 out of 128 gigs used.

I don’t watch cartoons so none of those stored. For movies I wouldn’t waste watching a good one on a 6 inch phone screen, I’d use my 65 inch Ultra Hi Def TV with surround sound. If I did need to watch a movie on the go (flying overseas) I’d use my tablet or laptop for the bigger screen. Downloaded music from google play takes minimal space. My 500 albums are all…
