Google has just mandated that Android devices possess a certain storage capacity to run or upgrade to Android 15.
Only a few years go, we had Android phones with a modest amount of internal storage, and loading apps was painful at best. Google seems to understand that low storage capacity ruins the Android user experience. Hence, the company has mandated that Android devices possess at least 32GB of internal storage to run or upgrade to Android 15.
The growing size of Android operating system updates and applications has influenced Google’s recent increase in storage requirements. Although Android 14 could still function on devices with 16GB storage capacity, users are often left with very little space after a few applications are installed.
