28.67GB for 256gb model. I think if you have a lower storage model the system reserve is lower.
Why is there only 28gb available for apps when there's 256gb of storage? Shouldn't it mostly all be available? I know Oppo's color OS had this issue, but they did an update where you could merge partitions. Why is ASUS not letting apps use more of the storage? Is this common with ASUS?

I have a Moto G4 with 32GB. 6GB of that is used for the Android OS leaving 26GB remaining. According to the stats I have 20GB available to apps and whatever else I want.

Sorry my bad, 28.67GB is system reserved (Android OS). 227GB is available for apps. After non removable presinstalled Google and Asus apps I believe it's about 220gb free for your own apps.

Thanks. How do you like the phone so far? How is the camera? Would you mind posting some sample pictures indoors and outdoors? Thanks :)
