Her current phone only has 16 GB storage, and no that's not RAM. 🤣
But what format video are you using? H265 Video at about 1.5 GB for a full movie look great on the phone. But needless to say she doesn't use it for that at all.
I looked at Sony when I bought my current phone, but I like big screens and a Sony with comparable features to my Xiaomi 13T Pro cost almost twice what I paid, and then it still only had half the storage.
But message LED is a major feature IMO, it's almost a Sony exclusive now.
I really miss the flashing LED from my BlackBerry Z30 - so long ago.
when you record video, It's almost 4 MB a second in default, so you're using up a gig every 2 and 1/2 minutes.
sunset+walk on the beach, a gig.
say 30 minutes of a video, and you're between 15 and 20 gigs.
Go to a concert, or a wedding, whatever and you just lost a huge percentage of your phone storage and you aren't allowed to add more storage?
insane, very consumer unfriendly
The longest video I ever recorded was 18 years ago, about 10 mins, just to see what the camera was capable of with a new SD card I bought. Generally my videos are less than a minute now.
Obviously you wouldn't use a 10 year old phone for your use case.
However my Xiaomi 13T Pro 512GB would probably be fine. But I currently only use 10% of the storage.
I shot a 4 hour interview on my 2016 Moto G4. The last hour or so was audio only because the phone ran out of internal storage (32GB) and I didn't have an SD card in it. It has a slot though.
Ooh you had the big one. 😎
That's actually pretty cool, both that it was able to take a 3 hour video, and that it goes audio only, instead of just cutting off.
Back in the day when we used FAT32 you couldn't have files bigger than 2GB. 😜
I did the audio-only part with a separate audio recorder because the phone was full. The video is in a bunch of parts but I don't remember if any are larger than 2GB. It is FAT32 so maybe they must be smaller. I remember the phone ran out of battery power after maybe an hour, and I plugged in a power bank (10000 mah) and that was enough for the rest of the session.
Oh boy, that must have been fun. 😋
Ah yes I remember messing with all those part files because Microsoft always had such poor foresight.
This was some years back but I think the multiple files were primarily because we took breaks in the interview and stopped the camera. I don't remember if any parts hit the file size limits. I still have the files on a server someplace, so might check.
