        MdN, 05 Nov 2013Recording or playing HD video, movies, videos, music... I h... morelisten bro as chaichi said 16 GB is enough on Android, yes she is true, I've nexus 4 (getting nexus 5 soon ) and it has just 12.6 GB of internal storage and in case you don't know it's not expandable at all , my all apps and their data takes up 4.5 GB, while my music takes up 3 GB, and I've two HD movies inside right now that takes up some 2.6 GB, so by simple maths it's 10 GB, and then I've 2.5 GB remaining , and yeah Androids can backup apps, and things can be easily moved to PC which holds a TB to relax as much as possible


        so if you want this get it or leave it buy iPhone on contract

I have 16 GB on my phone, plus a 16 GB memory card, got it in March and I don't even record videos, right now I have 18GB free. So, without the card I'd just have 2 GB free? And it's a Symbian phone, videos and movies are in 360p quality to save on space. Android needs much more memory.

                    First to make this better it's only $350. second I have used 20gb on my tablet and I haven't even gatten all the songs I want. the 16gb should be fine for me because I will mostly have just music but there are alot of games on the play store that take a gigabyte or more the game modern combat 4 uses 1.94gb and there are plenty of others , I don't know why they didn't add in a sd card i is very cheap to add

                        man ! so far for the price of around 450$ and all the goodies this phone has ( the display , the protection , 2gb of ram , 2,3 GHz quad core Krait 400 and snapdragon 800 chip ) this is the best phone on the market right now .

                          I honestly dont understand how people plan to even fill the 16gb of storage that they have, 16gb is a lot of storage, It's not like every app takes half a gb, the biggest app on the playstore is FIFA 14 which takes 1gb, other than that all the big apps are well under a 100mb, and nobody downloads more than 10-15 big apps on their phone, if you want more storage, save a 50$ and go for the 32gb version

You still dont know that?...actually the Google Nexus One had a SD Card slot, that device was the last one to have it, and i think if you have 32GB at least, that's enough ! + the internal storage runs faster than the SD Card !
