So I have been analysing my storage and I discovered something shocking. My system takes21.28 GB and other takes12.96 GB, making it a total of about35 GB (more than a quarter of 128 GB) of storage I cant use. The question is, is this my phone only or everyone else has the same issue. Check attached picture:

I cleared cache for YouTube and Chrome (around 1.2GB total) and this happens: size of Apps decreased to 73.35 and size of Other increased to 18.72 which is weird.SmartSelect_20211118-185336_My Files_117022_1637247217.jpg

Now I cleared the data for both Chrome and YouTube (around 60Mb total) then this happened: size for Apps decreased to 73.27 and size for Others increased to 18.74. Weird. As far as I understand: the System is where the operating system is installed and Apps include installed apps along with their App data. But I don't understand what the Other is for.SmartSelect_20211118-191844_My Files_117024_1637248725.jpg
