I text, call and I use the weather app. Pretty much it and I can do all that on a cheap android phone.

You can have the cloud on or off, but you can also specify what items go to the cloud. It's very convenient to have some stuff go to the cloud, maybe texts or emails or settings or photos (although photos and/or videos will eat up your free space).

I haven't put music on my phone in years, but recently put some of my old stuff on my phone because I realized that I had plenty of space.

I also use Waze.
