I hate to say it, but remember the giant outrage and making fun of Microsoft everyone did over Surface Tablets with over half their HD taken up by the OS? Less than a year later now it's quite noticeable in Android space... :/ Either we need to really rip into Samsung or maybe we need to be less hard on MS on this particular topic...
- melling 13y agoIsn't that what the article is saying? People are complaining. It doesn't sound like Samsung gets a pass while Microsoft doesn't. 8GB remaining isn't going to last on a phone.
- JohnTHaller 13y agoThe difference is that the Samsung Galaxy has expandable memory. So, unlike the Nexus 4 which comes with 8GB (total, usable is less), you just pop in a microSD and have plenty of room.
- clicks 13y agoThe reason we won't express outrage isn't quite because we consciously choose to go easy on Samsung and go hard on Microsoft, it's rather that protest fatigue has set in. Lying about true storage capacity is a thing that companies do now... and when it becomes a thing, the fight is usually half lost, people will come to just expect such things, and indeed, accept them for what they are.
