They can keep Apple phones, to limited is storage, my Samsung Note 3 has a micro memory card as big as I want it, besides the phone’s memory. So I can hold all the photos I want in albums.
Photo space isn’t a problem on my iPhone.
All photos & videos are uploaded to Apple’s cloud service, acting as backup and making them available to all my devices (second full backup on my Mac).
As photos are unused, they’re removed from the phone, thumbnail kept, and re-downloaded as needed.
No memory card required.
