Samsung brings unlimited cloud backups to Galaxy flagships, but there’s a catch

Finding enough storage to back up a smartphone, even for a few weeks, can be tricky. To simplify this task, Samsung is rolling out a new free solution that will allow Galaxy smartphone users access to as much temporary storage as they require.

As its name suggests, Samsung’s Temporary Cloud Backup isn’t meant to be a Google Drive alternative. Instead, it mirrors Apple’s temporary iCloud storage feature, allowing users access to unlimited storage for a brief period. In Samsung’s case, that period is 30 days from the date of the initial backup. Files below 100GB will be accepted.
