So the iPad has gone to 512GB. It seems to me that Apple has always mirrored the iPhone storage and the iPad storage.

I would LOVE a 512GB option on my iPhone 8 because I like to store loads of music and films/shows locally. Long flights and extreme anxiety during flights over the ocean means that I need to keep myself entertained for 8 hours or more.

So what is the likelihood of a 512GB iPhone 8? Has that been asked already? Apologies if it has, I don't visit often.:eyelashes:

I doubt it, but with Apple nothing is certain until it is.

If they replace the 256 with 512, then I’ll get it, otherwise I’ll stick to 256. As it has proven to be more than enough for me, for now.

512 is a whole lot of storage capacity for an iPhone even if you store a lot of music, photos, and movies. If Apple decides to make that part of their configuration lineup, just plan on paying a premium on top of the premium pricing!

The new iPad Pro is available with 512 GB so I wouldn’t be surprised at all if they made a 512 GB iPhone this year.

That's what I was thinking. It seems to me, if memory serves, that the iPads and the iPhones have always had the same memory.

I really would love it. Means more of my series and films, along with my music, on my device for long trips.

Yeah I just can’t see their flagship device having lesser memory configurations than any of their other iOS devices. We’ll see though; Apple has their own form of logic.

Hmm, I'm going to say definitely no for the standard iPhone 7s and 7s Plus but a 80% chance for the 'Anniversary' iPhone 😃

They only get to do this once every 10 years or maybe on their 25th year. So if they have the tech to give it 512gb then I think they should go for it! The price will already be higher than normal.

I've still got around 160 GB left on my 256 GB iPhone. I don't see myself needing 512 GB. I'd be fine with the 256. 512 on a phone would be an insane amount of storage on a device that I probably won't have for longer than a year lol.
