"Manufacturers like to adorn the long lists of features in their smartphone advertising with terms such as Super AMOLED, 120Hz, 5G, AI camera or ultra-wide angle but often this is more marketing than real added value for normal users. Sure, a lot of this stuff can be exciting for tech fans. But for everyday use, some of these extras are just unnecessary."
"Smartphones are being offered with ever-larger storage options: between 128- and 512GB is standard, with many high-end devices starting at 256GB. Variants with 1TB are still available, but such storage giants only make sense for a small target group, such as professional photographers or passionate mobile gamers. For everyday use, this is often far too much. Nevertheless, storage requirements have increased in recent years. AI functions, high-resolution photos and 4K videos now require more space than in the past."
Many smartphone features marketed as selling points provide little practical benefit for everyday users, especially on budget and mid-range models. Marketing-led extras can raise prices substantially without delivering noticeable advantages. Practical purchasing priorities include display quality, battery life, camera performance, software support and overall value for money. Storage options have grown; 128–512GB is now standard while 1TB suits specialized power users. Recommended capacities: 64GB for basic users, 128GB as realistic entry level, 256GB for regular filming or large games, and 512GB+ for intensive video or extensive offline libraries. Cloud services such as iCloud, Google One and OneDrive reduce local storage needs.
