Is 8GB on phone good enough?

I am thinking of getting the Samsung Grand Neo Plus phone and just wondering if 8GB on this phone is good enough?

What phone? 16GB is likely to serve you better but it still isn't good. 8GB will barely cover the operating system's installed apps.
8GB is pretty damn low. You'd be much better off with 16GB. But I have lots of music so I'll be getting 64 on my next phone.
In the short no, you would really have to consider a phone with a higher storage, or buying a phone which allows a storage expansion via Micro SD card
Depends what you want to do with it. Do you want to store music? Game? If so, I'd suggest going bigger so you don't limit yourself in the future.
Can you add a SD card? If so, you might be alright. I think going up to 16Gb will probably place you in a better position especially if you like to download many apps.
if you dont have lots of photos and dont store more than 100-200 songs on your phone then you'll be fine
Depends on the amount of Porn you download
Don't get an an 8GB phone. I have one and I can hardly download anything without it saying 'system storage full'
I have a 16GB phone and it still isn't enough. Also they say its '16GB' or '8GB' etc but its actually less because the apps that are automatically on the phone which you cannot delete takes away the GB. So yh 8GB is not enough.

Ok so how about 16GB

I am looking at the Samsung Grand Neo Plus
All you need is a micro SD card anyway so the internal storage is pretty irrelevant.

Just for pictures, videos and music mainly.

Just looked it up and it is expandable of up to 64GB via microSD.
It's not enough. And not every app can be stored on an sd card so don't rely on that. My old 16GB phone filled up in weeks

Whats your budget? You could probably get a better phone if you look around tbh.
