I have checked the breakdown of data used. Under Settings > General > Usage, the Storage Breakdown for apps is:
Photos & Camera – 387MB
Whatsapp – 378MB
Voice Memos – 334 MB
etc. (in descending order)
In addition I have cleared most of pics and videos under Camera as part of my weekly routine. But I am still left with only 1GB (both registered on iTunes, Settings > General > Usage, and iExplorer (3rd party iPhone explorer).
What would be the reason why this is so? and how do I regain more space?
I do not download many apps. But my phone is jailbroken. Maybe it is because some Cydia apps are merely "uninstalled"? is that how it works?

Try iCleaner. This removes a variety of leftovers and other jailbreak files that can consume a lot of space. These files don't show in Usage as they are regarded by iOS as part of the system, but can be safely removed.
