The 50GB of storage is iCloud Storage, this is Apple's cloud storage system (where you can back up your information and photos), this does not add storage onto your phone and you are unable to use this storage to update your device.

Manage your iCloud storage – Apple Support (UK)


If you are unable to update your iPhone please follow the steps at:

If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch won’t update – Apple Support (UK)
