Which plan is right for you will depend on how many photos you plan to upload – and whether you’ll make use of the extra benefits of a Prime plan. This option will also be useful for those who plan to store videos in the cloud. Again, Australians don’t have access to this option.Īlternatively, you can expand the storage capacity of your Amazon account without a Prime subscription. Bad news for Australians though, you’ll only get 5GB of complimentary storage.įor a single monthly fee of $12.99 / £7.99, you can use Amazon’s next-day delivery service, access its substantial library of video streaming content and upload as many images as you like to Amazon Photos – without any compression. Given Google's photo compression policy, this subscription may become essential if, say, you're an Adobe Lightroom user and you need to find the best ways to backup photos in original, full high-resolution.Īmazon’s approach is a little different: subscribers to the Amazon Prime service get unlimited storage of full-resolution photos for free as part of their package (plus 5GB for videos).
Plans start at $1.99 / £1.59 / AU$2.49 per month for 100GB of cloud space, going up to $10 / £7.99 / AU$12.49 per month for 2TB. With Google Photos, that means taking out a Google One subscription to increase your storage capacity across all Google products. So whichever service you choose to use, you’ll need to pay for additional space once you hit the complimentary limit.
Google no longer offers unlimited free storage for 'high quality' photos: both 'original' and compressed photos now count towards your total. Google Photos vs Amazon Photos: price and storage capacityīoth Amazon Photos and Google Photos offer a first slice of photo storage for free: anyone with an Amazon account gets 5GB of cloud capacity, while anyone with a Google account gets a more generous 15GB.
