I also never buy the newest, usually 1 or 2 revs back. I used to always buy the lowest storage option, but at some point got a great deal on a phone with 512GB because it was 2 revs back. It's nice to never have to worry about stuff. I move pics and video to my PC and delete them from my phone, although I'm sure that it would hold a ton of pics (not so much on videos).

Most apps have a cache. By removing and reinstalling you are probably clearing the cache, but then once you start using them, that will probably build back up.
