It depends upon which storage. You're probably talking about storage on the phone itself. See this link about how to better use the new space in iCloud by using optimizing features:

What's the difference between device storage and iCloud storage? - "Learn the difference between your device and iCloud storage, ways to manage your space, and where to buy more if you run out." Click here --> https://support.apple.com/HT206504

Take-home:

1. Storage on a device is fixed and cannot be upgraded.

2. iCloud storage is on Apple's main computers. It is not a hard drive in the sky but by using optimization settings on your device it can help free up device storage. Lesser used items and larger file versions can be stored in ICloud and you can get access while connected to the Internet.
