How much storage do you want to have on your phone?

With higher quality, 4K video and higher Internet speeds, we can download much more on our phones and it seems that we are storing more and more on our devices. So is there a limit?
The upcoming Samsung Galaxy Note 9 already sets a new standard: its base model will come with 128GB of on-board storage and there will be another model with 512GB of built-in storage. That's more than what we have on our laptops!
What is the sweet spot?
And most recently, big companies like Apple have started offering more built-in storage in their iPhones. From the shockingly low 16GB that the company offered in basic phones, it has doubled the storage to 32GB and then to 64GB, so now we have the iPhone X and iPhone 8 series with a 64GB base version and a 256GB model.
And then others like OnePlus for years have now shipped phones with at least 64GB of storage and up to 128GB.
With all this in mind, let's see what you think: how much storage do you want and need on your phone? Vote below and feel free to explain why you need what you need in the comments section.
