System storage data is at 510gb of 512gb hard drive

Why does my phone system data take up 98% of my phone memory?

iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 16

Check macrumors, there are many iPhone 14 users with this problem. Apple support says something to do with iCloud and need to stay connected to Wi-Fi and plugged in power for up to 72 hours but this does not work . Most people find that his does not occur if Wi-Fi is turned off. Many found that if music and Apple TV app is deleted, it resolved the issue. Most have reinstalled music and Apple TV, and seems to be ok after reinstall.

iPhone 14 pro max. Memory full cause of System storage data using 510gb of memory. But my iCloud data shows I only have 199gb of memory used on my last phone and my iCloud account. It has not let me use my phone once it’s full. If I turn it off and start it again it’ll restart at a low number then end of day it’s 510gb and I cannot even open a email or anything.
