    when you record video, It’s almost 4 MB a second in default, so you’re using up a gig every 2 and 1/2 minutes.

    sunset+walk on the beach, a gig.

    say 30 minutes of a video, and you’re between 15 and 20 gigs.

    Go to a concert, or a wedding, whatever and you just lost a huge percentage of your phone storage and you aren’t allowed to add more storage?

    insane, very consumer unfriendly

      The longest video I ever recorded was 18 years ago, about 10 mins, just to see what the camera was capable of with a new SD card I bought. Generally my videos are less than a minute now.
      Obviously you wouldn’t use a 10 year old phone for your use case.
      However my Xiaomi 13T Pro 512GB would probably be fine. But I currently only use 10% of the storage.
