I knew the 128gb drive was limiting, so I purchased a 1TB external SSD with a Thunderbolt enclosure and attached that to the Mini permanently. Following some advice I read, I set...

    iPhone 7Plus - 128GB vs. 256GB

    I am comparing a iPhone 7Plus 128GB versus a iPhone 7Plus 256GB Phone. Other than the OBVIOUS double Capacity......what other differences are there between the 128 vs. 256 ? Sounds crazy....but do they weigh the same? How about the data write speed? Anything else you can think of?
