is it safe to delete the System Data off of a LG EscapeII and what is it?

[AC Question]

My LG Escape II only has 13.57 MB left and 5 GB of the the max storage ( 8 GB ) is in its System data. I only have 2 apps installed, ones that are important and only take up 2 GB. My main question is, can I delete the System Data without damaging my phone?

Welcome to Android Central! No. The 5 GB represents the OS and important associated data. You're encountering the main problem with phones that come with small amounts of internal storage--lack of space to install apps. Unless you have Marshmallow and the ability to use the SD card as Adoptable Storage, you're limited to using the small amount of internal storage for your app installation. In the future, a good rule of thumb is to get a phone with as much internal storage as you can comfortably afford. 16 GB is felt to be the absolute bare minimum these days.
