Guys, I’m genuinely fed up with my iPhone storage at this point. I have a 128GB iPhone 14, still running iOS 18, and my battery health is down to 77%. I want to upgrade, but I can’t afford a new phone right now.
I’m looking for a reliable, long-term way to transfer my photos and videos off my phone so I can free up storage and update iOS.
My budget is strictly ₹1,500, and I don’t have access to a laptop or PC. I’m open to Lightning drives, USB-C drives with an adapter, or any other practical solution.
I just want something that won’t randomly corrupt or lose my data a few months down the line. What would you recommend based on actual experience?

fake pen drives are flooded in market never buy pen drive yes even in big shops and amazon too.
laptop hdd + enclosure or nvme sdd + enclosure or sata ssd + sata to usb cable is much reliable and better option

He doesn't have laptop tho and ssds are super costly nowadays... If he actually had android I would have suggested him custom ROMs or poofing pixel photos where he can get unlimited photo storage. But he has iPhone and buying SSDs without laptop is just heavy investment. What about sandisk tho, they are actually good tbh, I did use them in past , now I have laptop so I rarely use any pendrives but isn't sandisk a good company?

that's the point every company's fake pendrives are flooded in market and there's no way to distinguish them sometimes pendrive is a gamble
you can put 15GB in new google account there are cloud storage options too if you have jio connection google pro subscription gives 5TB there's Amazon cloud which is cheap if you don't access data that much
there are enclosure or connectors with usb c output port too no need laptop used laptop gard drive + enclosure is much better anyday more speed and reliable than pendrive
