Remember that you will not get more space internally on your iPhone by purchasing more space in iCloud. Apps, photos, music etc. will still take up space in your iPhone's memory. iCloud will just be extra space where you can have all your stuff backed up.


You can read more specifically what the difference is between iCloud and Internal Storage here:

If you want to buy more space in iCloud and upgrade to iCloud+ see here:
