Hi!

 

I own a Pixel and get unlimited photo storage. I am thinking about switching to Samsung. Does anyone who uses Google Photos know if you are able to have unlimited standard quality photo storage on a Samsung device? Initially the unlimited storage was only for Pixel phones, but neither Google nor Samsung reps can give me a straight yes or no answer as to whether this is still the case. Can anyone answer this question for me? Is there unlimited standard photo storage using google photos on a Samsung phone or are there still storage limitations using Samsung devices?

Hi @userXkk8DoMlJH I use google photos on all of my devices no matter what and I can absolutely confirm for you that I have unlimited storage across all devices. Google photos is my favorite way to store my photos. I have ALL of my photos available on all of my devices at one click of a button.

Hello @userXkk8DoMlJH , so I was reading the terms and conditions to help and google photos states that

 

"If your upload size is set to high quality, you get unlimited free storage. But if it is set to original, your backed up photos will count against your Google Photos storage."

"You get 15GB of free storage for photos and videos that are stored exactly as you captured them." 

 

This is for any type of cellphone that can use google photos. So I hope this was helpful and if you have any other questions or concerns we are here to help. Keep us updated, and hopefully you join the Samsung family. Have a wonderful day!
