When iPhoto overloads, I move older images and less necessary ones to my Microsoft OneDrive account, freeing up space on the phone and on iCloud. The Apple ecosystem takes care of my backup, and Microsoft covers my other files. I use the device for long-form video playback, and not as a backup device. It also allows the movement of non-media files between the iOS device and the drive.
