[Q] Internal memory of Nexus

---

Can ne1 tell me how much internal memory the Nexus has? I've read two conflicting stories, one stating the Nexus has 16GB and the other stating it has 32GB.

The GSM version has 16GB whereas the Verizon exclusive LTE version has 32GB.

Here's a better question... Anyone with the Nexus able to tell has how much it ACTUALLY has available to us from the get-go? We all know 16GB doesn't really mean 16GB.

My phone says: "Total space: 13.33GB"

Craaaaap. Basically 3GB gone... Brutal. Thanks for sharing, though!

solution: buy a USB cable and hook up your flash drives and portable hard drives to the phone. problem solved.

Yeah cause its so easy and stylish to be using a phone with a USB drive dangling from it.... but yes that does happen to be our only option for expanding memory sans cloud storage

for me the 13GB is enough for my most listened to music, around 2-3GB. a few TV shows, of which standard dev is only 350MB, HD is 1GB and the rest for apps.

then i'll plug in my 1TB hard drive if i want to watch an HD movie.

but if the 13GB is not enough then you just gotta wait for the 32GB, which will probably be only 28-29G actually.

but now you have a portable hard drive you're carrying around with your phone :P

that's more like "burden created", not "problem solved".

So far I'm good with the 16 (or 13gb) you get with the phone. I filled up a first gen iPod 32gb with music and random apps but noticed I really don't listen to a lot of the music I have on there, so for this phone I only put the music I really listen to often on it and synced everything else with Google Music. You can choose songs to remain cached and available offline if you really want it to stay on the phone so no worries about low connectivity. I'm never really in a position to have the time to watch multiple movies on my phone and Netflix is more than enough if I am in that position. Podcasts are the only thing that get me because I always forget to delete them. I averaged around 1-2gb of free space on my NS and I've scrapped a lot of unnecessary self inflicted bloat on this phone so I should be good until this time next year when the next nexus comes out.
