My apps use around 7gb, photos are in iCloud storage, only a few of them are on the phone. And the rest of my storage uses system 8.3 gb. How can it be? Why did I buy the phone with 16gb and got only 8gb of storage for usage?

I am having a similar issue, just noticed with the new update
I have a similar problem and you didn’t explain the huge System storage use. Another person here has a System that’s even more of a hog!
Hi Natarave, did you ever get a decent answer to the System’s memory hogging behavior?
My System smh!!!
Becky you did not answer the question of why the system is using so much storage. This thread is now months old, hundreds of users are reporting the same problem, but no one has addressed it.
That doesn't help at all.
Well said, Well said!
That’s exactly what I was thinking Josy
That was a wonderful non-answer. Why is 50% of my storage being taken by the system? No matter what I do? If I delete all my pictures, the system storage increases to take up the available space.
Try to use Dr. cleaner app it works
I updated to 11.4 and still have this issue
Nearly a year and still nothing from Apple.
I agree with this 100% about the customer service

On my iPhone, my OS takes up 2/3’s of my total storage. Why?
i too have been facing the same problem 9.41GB/16GB is used by the system
Why does the system use more than a half of my storage?
