You should stop taking JPEG photos on your iPhone

Innovative smartphone camera sensors can deliver impressive image quality despite their small size, but it comes at a price — more detailed shots require more digital space for storage. The average 24MP photo captured with a modern iPhone is about 3MB or 4MB in size, while using full 48MP ProRAW quality can result in files 10 to 12 times the size of a standard shot. With file sizes growing across the board, iPhone users might struggle to store all of their photos on-device. Relying on cloud storage to fill the gap can be a costly and slow alternative, but there's another solution.
