You're the only one who can answer that.
The only realistic answer is the one below (given that something like that is different for different people based on their usage essentially):
Is a 1/4 tank of gas enough? Depends on where you are going.
Same with phone storage - stores photos and music on the phone? Take lots of pics and videos? Maybe it won’t be enough. I have 64GB on my 8+ and I’ve used maybe 20. So for me it’s enough. Only you can answer that question.

4k video is going to chew through that. Maybe if you didn't do that and live photos, you may be fine. Or if you don't plan to use apps. It all depends what you use your phone for. It could be enough, look at your current phone, is it 64GB? Maybe it will work.
Should we also suggest what size pants you should buy?
How can you expect anyone to answer this question for you based on no information?
I don't think it will be, but I am planning on adding a 200GB iCloud plan to help free up phone storage.
I would get a 32GB iPhone X if it was available and $100 cheaper.
Google Photos unlimited high quality, small music collection, preference is streaming, and I don't like hoarding my media files. I have 2TB of videos. Not even 256GB is enough to store all my files. 32GB is my bare minimum though.
And you really don't want to consistently add and delete files with flash memory to slow it down. Keep your storage clean with cloud.

Ohh , opps i forgot to include how much i use my phone.
I dont take pictures too much, And dont record videos oftenly. I also dont download lots of games.
But doesnt it take 4gb to download ios updates or whatever? Doesnt it add up? I also have spotify.

64gb feels like cheaping-out on the most expensive iPhone ever made. 
Why would anyone do that? It's like buying a 1.5 liter engine Ferrari.

Yes, it’s more than enough for me but I don’t have any videos, just photos. I’ll be preordering the 64gb X.
Don't forget you can back up photos and videos to computer or iCloud, so 64gb might not be bad at all.

Cheaping out? Why waste money on the 256gb when I don’t need it? I have 50gb of iCloud storage also. I’ve only used 10gb on my iPhone. I don’t need 256gb.
For me at least I don't have games and music on my phone. I only listen to music to and from work (can't listen to music in my warehouse because of forklift and truck traffic). On long drives I have a 256gb flash drive connected to my cars USB port with all the music I could possibly listen to for the day. I don't use twitter, Facebook and such. I use iCloud for my photos and videos so I'm good to go. I have on my 64gb 8+ right now with about 55gb's of free space.64gb feels like cheaping-out on the most expensive iPhone ever made.
