Which types of files always take up the most space on a device?

[Kera]

Almost everyone of us have populated our device storage with data different kinds of files. Some files have taken the most of the storage space we have used so far on our devices.

Which particular kinds of files take up the most memory space on a device? I think it is video files. What do you think?

Video and audio related films take up most space on our devices. My device have over 160 GB and therefore no amount of files do affect my device. I have over seventy movies and hundreds of audio on my device but my phone don't seems to be near the average storage space.

For me it is also the video file. I a lot of movies and series, edited videos and videos for my business taking more than half of my phone storage.

Video files and apps take up a lot of storage space on android devices, so I am always trying to delete files and apps which I do not use for a long time or move them elsewhere.

Apps always take up a large number of space. If you have up to three crypto exchange apps, you need space up to 50GB to run your phone seamlessly.

Video files, pictures and apps generally take up the most space on a device.

That’s why it’s a good idea to off load videos and pictures to the cloud or your own server/computer.

My videos is taking so much space on my device. I have more than a thousand tutorial videos. It has taken much space but it is worth it.

I think you are right. Full movies even in MP4 format take up several Gigabytes on a device. Obviously the space occupied could even be double if such movies are in high resolution such as 4K. Keeping too many of them would mean quickly saturating the storage space of a hard disk
