Let’s get you through it in detail!
What is Google One?
Google One is a separate plan with which you get more storage across Google’s services which are Google Drive, Gmail, and also original quality images in Google Photos. You can choose how much storage you want from a list of options, and you can upgrade at any time.
Every new account on Google Drive gets 15GB of storage as default. To buy more storage, you will need to subscribe to Google One.
Benefits and Features
After joining Google One, members can receive benefits redeemable in places like Google Play and the Google Store. For example, a few days back we got Rs 300 as Google Play Store Credit to spend on apps and in-app purchases. Also, as per the latest development, you will also be getting new photo filters inside the Google Photos App which you can take advantage of only if you are a Google One member.
Some benefits are only for the Google One members while Other benefits apply to everyone in the Google One member’s family group. When subscribed to Google One, you also get direct access to experts for help with Google products and services.
