I hate to say this but it’s personal preference(ik right lol). For me, I don’t really take much pictures and have barely any apps other than Youtube, snapchat, twitter, reddit, instagram, my banking apps, and all of it combined including photos take up 27gb where photos only takes up 157 mb. The new lens are nice but if you want to take advantage of the full 48mp camera, you need to take in proraw and you need to enable it in settings->camera->proraw->change proraw from 12mp to 48mp. That’s where 128gb becomes obsolete since each photo taken in proraw 48mp takes up on average 75mb. If you want to have this phone for 5 years+ and want to take full advantage of the new lens i would say go for 256gb but if you still want to have fun with the new lens but won’t be taking every single photo with proraw then 128gb should be okay!

Yeah, thank you. I do like taking pictures of cars... but I have lots of random pictures on my phone too and my space is 66GB out of 128GB and I've had my 12 pro max since it came out

That’s when it becomes tricky because for me, I delete all the random stuff like memes when im done with them or random shots, and keep the important pictures. I also only take in just 12 mp and sometimes proraw when the moment is there. If you think you’ll need 256gb to have the peace of mind knowing you don’t need to worry about storage then i would say do it!

Also, I just recently turned on ProRaw on my 12 and now it's at the top right when I take pictures making it handy. What does ProRaw actually do?...

Proraw for the 12 pro gives out the most details and the true to life colors possible and gives you room to edit the photo afterwards while just taking the photo without proraw will process the photo and edit it in real time giving you the best photo without you doing anything to it
