      Basically cloud storage means, its a certain amount of storage provided to you by a carrier or company, example Samsung. Usually its not a very large amount, say 20 Gb or something.

      So this 20 Gb doesn't physically exist with u. You have to sign into an app like Samsung Cloud, to utilize the 20gb.
      The storage is utilized by uploading your files using data onto the provided space, this is what u call the cloud. Once u upload a file on the cloud, u can access it from anywhere, not only ur phone. It will be available everywhere since its connected to the internet and is not a physical file on a storage.

      Usually cloud storages can even go upto many terabytes of space, but those usually require you to pay a monthly subscription. So what u need to ask yourself is, do u have a lot of mobile data/ wifi quota to upload the files onto the cloud? If yes, the cloud storage is for you.
