![]() ![]() If you’re okay with Google’s high quality plan, you don’t have to pay a cent (unless you routinely make giant prints, this is a great trade-off). Storage space pricing for safeguarding your originals is nearly the same until you reach a terabyte, at which point Google’s pricing is half that of Apple’s and, as of this writing, Apple’s storage options top out at 1TB whereas Google Photos offers up to 30TB. As of this writing, Google’s monthly storage rates are: Google grants 15GB of free storage space to that end, though your Gmail (messages and attachments) and Google Drive storage space count against it. You can choose to store original images (raw files included) by choosing Google’s Originals plan. Raw files are stored as JPEGs on Google’s High Quality plan-that said, it’s next to impossible to spot any quality loss, especially if you’re viewing imagery on mobile devices. ![]() Images and videos that are bigger get downsized however, everything is optimized (compressed) into high quality versions (this algorithm is applied in the cloud, not on your devices). You can enjoy unlimited storage for images up to 16 megapixels (which far exceeds what today’s iOS devices can capture), and videos up to 1080p (4K videos are supported with the Google Originals plan, discussed momentarily). Raw files are welcome and your images are stored in their original size at full quality.
