Compared to couple of GBs Android phones came with just 3 or so years ago, 32GB is a lot.
For anything except Video content (or the need for several months of offline music) 32GB is plenty.
- nine_k 11y agoI'd prefer my entire audio collection on the same device, not because I want to listen to several months of music without interruption, but to be able to choose that particular album or track that perfectly fits my mood now.
- aianus 11y agoThis is what Spotify is for.
- nine_k 11y agoOnline music works nice as long as you're in a covered area (and the data traffic is of no concern). This is true for California highways but is often false for New York subway. This can also be an issue if you happen to travel abroad.
- aianus 11y ago> This can also be an issue if you happen to travel abroad. Data abroad is dirt cheap compared to North America. $1.40 for 150mb when I lived in Vietnam. $30 for 3GB in Mexico. Much faster than Canada too.
- lcswi 11y agoSpotify does not have a quarter of my music collection.
- saiya-jin 11y agoHow hard is for some people to understand that whatever suits you, doesn't necessarily suits every single living person on this planet??? get out of your tiny little bubble for once, please. I don't see any value for me in spotify, for example. In circles around me, spotify & co penetration is well below 50%, albeit most know about it.
- zanny 11y agoMeanwhile, I got a base model Iphone 3gs back in 2009 that had 16GB minimum storage. And 32GB is plenty except for X Y and Z (where Y is large app collections of games [Hearthstone alone is like 1.5GB on mobile] and Z is music collections where you don't want to spend $50 a month in data fees for things you have on your home hard drive) which precludes anyone using those from buying these devices. All the cell companies are in a ruckus about how nobody bought 2015 flagships, but when the best storage you can get is 128GB on an S6 without a removable battery or SD slot for an insane like $200 premium over the minimum model you might want to stop price gouging as much if you want customers.
- bad_user 11y agoThe iPhone 6 still starts from 16 GB, which I found very odd, as these days the minimum should be 32 GB. Like the Nexus 6 had, so now we are talking about a regression in the Nexus line.
- Someone1234 11y agoThis thing claims it shoots 4K video. That means at 32 GB you can shoot 30 minutes of uncompressed video or around an 60 minutes of compressed video (depending on a lot of factors, including compression ratio, format, etc). The thing will likely overheat or run out of battery before 60 minutes of 4K video, but still the point stands, something that is featuring 4K video but then limits you to only 32 GB of storage is kind of contradictory. I feel like this device is saying: "We support 4K video* (*but don't actually try to use it)." PS - My point about overheat/battery is based on previous phones which claimed they supported 4K video. If you tried to use it the camera would switch off after a few minutes due to overheating, and the battery consumption would go through the roof.
