Does filling up storage slow down your iPhone?

Hi,


I’m gonna buy a new iPhone and I was wondering if filling up storage on my iPhone will slow it down?


I plan on buying 256gb because I have a lot of music that takes up a lot of space but if it slows down my iPhone I don’t wanna do that

Haha, yeah you’re right thanks. I’m just worried that the phone will run slower if I take up a lot of space on it but maybe it won’t? That’s what I want to know... If the the storage has anything to do with the performance of the phone.


For example if a phone have used 200gb storage out of 256gb will that phone run slower than a phone with only 10gb used storage out of 256gb?
