The message refers to the physical storage space on the phone itself. Having more iCloud storage won’t help with this. You need to delete content on the phone in order to free up space.

iCloud storage is separate from your phone storage. Phone storage capacity is FIXED and cannot be added to. If our phone wants more storage you will need to delete items from it or move items to offline storage
