Considering Apple won t let users boost the storage via an SD card, this update could be hugely useful for memory-hungry iPhone fans. With iCloud Storage, the only other way to add memory to your iPhone later in its life, costing as much as £2.49 a month for 200GB or £6.99 a month for 2TB, it could be much more affordable to keep everything on the iPhone itself.
Of course, more affordable doesn t mean cheap. Before you get too excited about this change will still be hugely expensive.
For example, the iPhone 12 Pro Max with 512GB of storage currently costs over £1,200 so expect a 1TB model to make an even bigger dent in your wallet. Likely between the £1,300 and £1,500 mark.
