Storage

S21 Ultra 5G is taking 65gb of system storage?

Why so high?

Have you enabled the ram plus feature??

RAM plus is off, and the system is taking 65GB, which is bizarre

I have checked mine... 56GB of system storage used.

I agree it is quite a lot of space used for the operating system in the storage... but I can't give you any reasons for the high system size used.

Thankfully I bought the 512GB model so it is not such an issue ... but if the owned phone is a 128GB model that is a big chunk of storage gone to the system !

One thing I would usually do each year is a complete factory reset when the new android update arrives.

I haven't done it yet, but will likely in a week or two. Obviously this process takes quite some time to factory reset and reinstall apps.

I treat this as a bit of a clean up and only install apps that I have used in the past couple months. A clean install can also resolve some compatibility issues.

I did this last year in the upgrade from Android 11 to 12... and it made a big difference resolving incompatibilities with some apps !

Smiley. 😀
