That happens to me too, but every time you open storage it updates, every message you receive count, every picture and every video (the videos take more space). I recommend you to use iCloud for the pictures and videos or sync with iTunes on your laptop, so you can have more space. And every update takes more space and you only have 16GB. That´s why Apple made (since the iPhone 6S) the phones with a minimum of 32GB.
