      Today only 9gb of free internal capacity out the box its a joke!! come on! The HTC One have 27,5GB free in the 32gb model and 59gb in the 64gb edition.. 3 16GB galaxy S4 = 1 HTC ONE ( 9GB x 3 = 27GB). 32Gb internal its exellent, more than sufficient storage, more is unnecessary)..but 16gb with only 9gb abailable its ridiculous in a 70O doll phone. HTC One ALL THE WAY better choice!

          [deleted post]but it is still only 1 storage option right? so any data you download goes straight onto said virtual sd card, so if you have 64gb storage on htc one, that is where all the data and apps go?? once full there is no magical sd drive for more space?i dont have htc so i am not sure how that setup works

            [deleted post]Yup i have to agree. My one x+ has the option to move it to sd card even without an sd card. Also when you check storage in settings you'll notice that it's divided in to internal and sd storage.

                    When will you update your S4 review with the new firmware? It will be interesting to see if photo/video is the same or better and also hdr video quality. Super cool for samsung to alow moving apps to the SD card, now i can use my 64gb card :)

                      So when are we going to expect this to be rolled out internationally? Specifically in the Philippines?

                            It's 15fps - 1/8x speed max, but there's a difference in resolution between the 2 models : i9500 = 1280*720 (720p) and i9505 = 800*450

                              It's not even close to 9.15 GB to begin with. It's more like 8.15GB LOL! After installing the update, it gives you about 8.5GB with clean install.
