Let&#8217;s get back to the time when smartphones were new to people. At that time, 16GB ROM is a huge amount of space because the OSs back then were very simple and less space-consuming. But now, Android, iOs and Windows are all very strong in the performance\u00a0and diverse in functions, hence take up huge storage in the ROM. Apps nowadays are also very heavy because they have\u00a0lots of features. Mostly the OS and the apps occupy 3\/4\u00a0of the internal memory.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The second reason is that the multimedia demand is very high these days<\/strong>. People take lots of photos, record many videos. They even download lossless tracks and full HD movies to their phones. 16GB ROM phones without memory card slot in that case will be very disadvantageous! Even\u00a0if those phones go with microSD card, there is still one drawback: users have to copy the files from the ROM to the microSD card.<\/p><div style=\"float: none; display: block; margin: 0 -10px; text-align: center;\"><!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_1 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"7528541080\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_2 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2964262507\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div><\/p>\n<p><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/16GB-ROM-phones-e1472024740781.webp 500w,https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/16GB-ROM-phones-e1472024740781-300x150.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/16GB-ROM-phones-e1472024740781.jpg\" height=\"250\" width=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/16GB-ROM-phones-e1472024740781.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/16GB-ROM-phones-e1472024740781-300x150.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" class=\"size-full wp-image-23045 aligncenter sp-no-webp\" alt=\"16GB-ROM-phones-e1472024740781\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><\/p>\n<p><strong>The third reason is that currently, smartphone brands tend to eliminate the microSD card slot in order to make their phones look slimmer.<\/strong> But to do that, these phones have to support great amount of internal memory.\u00a0As a result, 16GB ROM phones are no longer top options of OEMs.<\/p>\n<h3>16GB ROM phones: get lost in the competition<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Last but not least, 16GB ROM phones cannot compete in the full-of-flagship market!\u00a0<\/strong>OEMs are rising dramatically.
