Why does the iOS take up so much storage on my iPhone?

I was wondering why iOS took up so much storage on my iPhone it takes 9.17GB for iOS and 9.95GB for system data. Is this normal?

Perfectly normal. iOS doesn't vary much. System Data varies depending on things such as browsing cache, streaming, etc.

Mine is similar -- iOS 9.32GB and System Data 7.89GB (tap on System Data and see the description about it fluctuating according to system needs).
