Boost Your iPhone’s Storage Instantly with External Devices

This topic came up after the iPhone 13 PRO series, when Apple introduced a special video recording format called “ProRes.” ProRes supports different resolutions like 1080p at 30fps or 4K at 60fps, but these high-quality videos take up so much space that they can’t be saved directly to your iPhone’s internal storage. Instead, they need to be saved to an external hard drive for extra storage space. Let’s look at how to connect your iPhone to an external hard drive using the Type-C port:

Whether or not your device needs a cable, simply plug it into your iPhone's Type-C port, and your phone will create a new folder. This folder will be visible in the “Files” app. By tapping the “Browse” option in the top left corner, you can easily find your external storage folder. When recording with the ProRes format, a new folder will automatically be created to store your files. Additionally, the storage space on the external hard drive can also be used for regular backups and data transfers. As for how long you can record video, let's refer to the table below for a quick reference:



Today, we briefly discussed how external devices can expand your iPhone storage post-15 series PRO, and we've shared some operational details for these scenarios. TEAMGROUP also offers a range of innovative external storage hard drives for smartphones, which you can explore further through the link below!
