Because the march of time terrifies them.
If demanding better features means you're old, then fuck being young.
That's the ultimate irony of being young now - satisfied with awful tech experiences. Watching videos on a tiny screen and listening to music on earbuds or even worse, a cell phone speaker.
I recently saw an Amazon review where someone couldn't believe how much better full size headphones were than their apple airpods. A whole review blathering about why a speaker 25x larger sounded better. "Never imagined such a difference!!!" Funny af
And the tech companies absolutely know this.
From the average user's perspective, there is no real need.
Back in the day your 0.2 megapixel camera would take up a lot of space. That's not the case anymore, especially with cloud storage and being able to just plug your phone into a computer and take the files off it that way.
Huh, buddy, I have some news for you, current cameras have evolved too which means that pics and especially videos take a lot of storage today too... (Not to mention that app resolution has also grown up which means they are heavier too).
If you think that the same proportion of storage is taken between the two. Then I don't know what to say to you.
