Android 5.1.1 memory has 6.53GB in "Others". What is "Others" and how do I reclaim this memory?

Using Oppo R7g phone, reset to factory settings and instantly over 5GB in Others section of memory. Also over 5GB in System Occupied so I only had 4GB left out of 16GB before I even used the phone. One day later Others is up to 6.5GB and now I only have 2.8GB free memory. What is Others, what's in it, and how do I get the memory back?
