The logic behind buying phones with a lot of memory is pretty clear. They take it and do not think about what is there, but how it is there.<\/p>\n<p>Separately, I would like to talk about users for whom the phone is a working device. Usually, they only have different files for most of their free storage. I used to be one of them too. In my house, there was no computer or laptop, only a smartphone.<\/p>\n<div class=\"adsense\"><\/div>\n<p>If you use your phone exclusively for storing photos and communicating in instant messengers, then I can safely recommend the minimum volume. Now it is usually either 64 or 128 GB.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"kak_ochistit_kesh_na_telefone\">How to clear the cache on your phone<\/h2>\n<p>It usually happens like this: you buy a smartphone, come home, download all the necessary applications, look, and there is still as much as 48 GB of free space. The thoughts immediately pop up in my head: it&#8217;s good that I didn&#8217;t take more, otherwise, I would overpay.<\/p>\n<p>Days go by, years go by, and, for the first time, the phone remarks to you that everything, they say, there is not enough memory.\u00a0In a panic, you turn to Settings and with horror learn that the Telegram application takes up as much as 10 GB of free space.\u00a0The cache is to blame for everything.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"stoit_li_pokupat_kartu_pamyati\">Should you buy a memory card<\/h2>\n<p>Of course, many will now say: what about a memory card?\u00a0If I suddenly decide to work on a smartphone, I can always buy it and not worry about free space.\u00a0<strong>Our author Ivan Gerasimov<\/strong>\u00a0perfectly spoke about \u00a0I recommend reading it.<\/p>\n<p>For me, it all comes down to an extremely simple thesis: a memory card is unsafe.\u00a0Just imagine, anyone can pull it out.\u00a0As soon as you leave your phone somewhere, like everyone else, consider that you said goodbye to the data.\u00a0Even if there is a password there and no one will see what is inside, you will no longer have this data.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"skolko_pamyati_nuzhno_chtoby_igrat\">How much memory does it take to play<\/h2>\n<p>I would also like to talk about games on a smartphone.\u00a0The modern player is a rather humorous person.\u00a0By downloading the game, we plan to see something unearthly there, with excellent graphics at the Witcher level and a well-developed plot with the ability to respond to dialogues.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, for some reason, we do not want to download 10 GB of the game. You see, it takes up a lot of space, then there is not enough space for other tasks. Well, now judge for yourself. Even if you download three games, each of which will weigh about 6 GB, then this is already 18 GB. We add two thousand more photos here, a system that takes 6 GB and in the end, we are left with nothing. If anything, I warned you.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"kakoj_telefon_vybrat_melomanu\">Which phone to choose for a music lover<\/h2>\n<p>I solved the issue of music quite simply.\u00a0I signed up for one of the streaming services and completely ditched the idea of \u200b\u200bdownloading music to my device.\u00a0The reason for this is very simple, the only place where a bad internet connection in my life is on an airplane.\u00a0So you can listen to music without downloading without any problems.<\/p>\n<p>However, there are (and quite often) users who do everything the old-fashioned way and download everything through a computer or directly through third-party pirate services. The advice here is very simple: you need about 10 GB of music. Then count yourself.<\/p>\n<p><span>As a result, it turns out that before you go to the store you should:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span>Assess how much memory you needed on your last smartphone and how long ago you bought it.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Write down in notes everything that you plan to spend memory on.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Consider purchasing a memory card.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Consider the period for which you plan to purchase a smartphone.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In today&#8217;s world, many users change their smartphones every year.\u00a0And they are constantly faced with the same question: how much memory to choose a device.\u00a0It would seem that everything is very clear: you have already used smartphones, take the same one.\u00a0However, in reality, everything is much more complicated.\u00a0Everyone gets out of the situation in different [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9109,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[366],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/techoverall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9108"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/techoverall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/techoverall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techoverall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techoverall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9108"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/techoverall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9108\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techoverall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9109"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/techoverall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9108"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techoverall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9108"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techoverall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9108"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
