            Getting ready for the next big thing, VR !. 4K display, 6GB RAM, 128GB+ UFS Ultra Fast Storage. Samsung is The King of innovations and technology.

              If they do release a phone with 256GB storage, hopefully it won't make the price skyrocket.

                  Unlike Apple, Samsung have that little feature called the Memory Card Slot, so you can increase the size of the memory on your phone. Ergo, there is no need for them to make a dedicated 128gb memory phone, apart from the Galaxy S6, which had no card slot so had varying levels of internal memory. Samsung have realised the error of their ways by not having a card slot on the S6, having reintroduced this on the S7.

Why would Samsung develop this if they were not going to use it themselves? Sure, they may sell this on also, but I expect to see this in future Samsung releases.

                              It will be awesome to have these in the Note 6. I'm eagerly awaiting the Note 6.

                                        Anonymous, 16 Mar 2016they manufacturing these for iphones, not Samsung phonesnope. these are UFS type storage.

                                        apple uses NVMe. so don't expect these in future iphones.
