    Good day

    I am from Zimbabwe and have recently bought a Samsung J5 from China, with 16gb memory space. It has Android 5.1. However I am realising that 11.35gb of this space is occupied by system memory. Is this not an anormally? If it not normal, what can I do to correct this storage issue.

    I have a Galaxy S 5 with the same 16gb storage capacity, its system memory occupies only 4.5gb and its on Android 6.1.

            The J5 2015 is good. I've been using it for over a year and despite its small glitches, it's a very reliable phone.

                    Ash, 22 Sep 2017It'll be postponed, S4 was certified to get marshmallow but... moreseriously, do you know what you're saying??..s5 receiving nougat update??..dude, s5 is released more than 3yrs ago...and since its release, it only covers 2years of major software update..(it is mandatory to all premium and selected units)..that's why it only received lollipop and marshmallow update...thinking that s5 will receive nougat update is entirely stupid...why do you think they'd release more advance and latest units?..think before you click, sir :)

                        Alright, I read quite a lot of negative comments about 2015 J5 version. I am using this phone for well over a year and certainly there are pros and cons. I have love/hate relationship towards this device, more love then hate. Simple design, solid build and overall nice looking phone for a very cheap price. Can handle the drop and not taking proper care but I would strongly advise using case and screen protector (tempered glass) if you dont want to have small but noticeable scratches once u take a good look. Removable battery is plus to me, and having an option to use SD card is a MUST for this device. Performance, day to day use, I find no problems with it. Of course you cannot expect to have flagship performance but does it lag, does it crash, is there an app that it cannot handle, almost no. From social media apps, music, videos, games, third party application, you can run almost all of them without any issues. But, big BUT, you have to know how to use this device, I know, many of you will say there it is, more work and tweaks..keep in mind this is a low end device, you do get what you pay for. I agree that having 8GB of memory is big punch in the face, especially knowing that there is no option that enables you to use SD as an internal (which to me is pretty stupid..). These few next steps will void your warranty, but it will give you best possible performance out of this device (yes you can also revert to the way it was by flashing your rom and all is good)
                        1) Root this device (supersu)
                        2) Install custom TWRP recovery
                        3) Flash small file from XDA that will enable using SD as an internal storage
                        4) Install SD Maid and most important Greenify and enable root access
                        5) Install SD2Link and uninstall bloatware from this device
                        - Optional - Install Nova Launcher Prime (perfect for getting as close as possible to pure android stock like UI)
                        With these 5 steps, you will get really good results. No issues with performance neither with low memory. Everything you do, everything you install, download, it all goes to your SD card which is now your internal storage (I am using Samsung 32GB SD card) Without it I wouldn't be able for sure to have over 60+ apps installed on my device, thousands of photos, couple of movies, etc.. (you get the picture) It is a low end device, but knowing how to use it to its fullest, you will be happy with it. Best regards, Miko

                            b0kn0y, 10 Sep 2017n0...j5 2015 will receive a nougat update on november this ... moreIt'll be postponed, S4 was certified to get marshmallow but Samsung cancelled it these things happen, J5 2015 is well out of the 2 year's mandotry support, i have a A5 2017 which is ls awaiting the Nougat update still. Example the S5 only received 1 major update from lollipop to marshmallow but never Nougat which this device is more capable than the J5. Anyways why would anyone update and be left with near to no memory for apps updates ect.

                                        Awaiting for November3, as per the certain website mentioning that there will be an update to J5(2015) from A6 to A7. Everything is working Fine, except for the Space criteria... Can store only a few Apps......require to remove the bloatware and unwanted---compulsory Apps deployed by Samsung....
