Does anyone have any ideal of when the 32gb or 64gb version of S4 will go on sell? Anyone who works for At&t know if either will be available to purchase in the at&t store? Seen something that Radio Shack will have the 32gb version for Sale on the 27 April 2013. 16gb is not enough onboard memory for me.
I read today at android central that a Samsung rep said within the next week or two for the 32GB but I don't know how accurate that is, I also don't see a 64GB coming at all to the US.

I have the Nexus 4 16gb. Not enough memory for me. 32 would be comfortable.:good:
For those who can live with 9.8GB of space, I applaud them. I simply can't and won't. Just annoys me to have to wait, weeks, months, who knows when for the 32GB. I hear Saturday, I hear next week or two to pre-order, I hear May or June. Not sure what to believe.

I agree I have like 8 games installed and it seems like I have over 5gb installed. That doesn't include Bards Tale, Real Racing 2,Asphalt, Dead trigger and others. I would love 32gb.

Rumor from Google I/O coming in May is a revamped Nexus 4 with 32GB and LTE. May hold out for that. Now if a 32gb or G4gb Galaxy S4 come out before then, I might make that move. :highfive:
While a Nexus 4 w/ 32GB and LTE would be nice the lack of microSD doesn't make it any better for me at least.
More info on the larger memory models at http://blog.clove.co.uk/2013/04/28/...er-accessible-internal-storage/#comment-47651 and http://www.gottabemobile.com/2013/04/25/samsung-galaxy-s4-32gb-64gb-mia/ and http://www.knowyourmobile.com/samsu...msung-galaxy-s4-wheres-32gb-and-64gb-versions
I would really like to buy an S4 but not in a basic 16Gb form. I want at least 32Gb or preferably 64Gb. With Apps2SD not functional on the newer versions of Android and the internal memory being much faster than an external microSD card the larger memory versions are a must for power users. Maybe I will have to give up on Samsung and go for a 64Gb HTC One which does not have a removable battery or card slot but looks a worthy alternative to an S4 with only the basic memory.

rumors abound on when we will see it, some say the 30th, some say May or June, some say never. If ATT didn't even mention it in the fine print we would just assume no.
Bottom line is if they don't then I have to rethink my whole phone strategy. Perhaps Samsung will offer up a 32GB developer edition soon.
Just get an international version. I scored one for $699
I am giving it some time before I get an unlocked international version. I am optimistic that coming soon is May or June at the latest.

Did u get the 32gb version international and from where? i am also patiently waiting for the 32gb version in india. Dont want to make the same mistake of getting the 16 gb again like i did with the s3. Its just no enough space. One of my friends went to the samsung store to ask they say that the 32gb version will not come to india but i have a feeling they are just saying that to sell the 16gb versions but who knows.

Wow. I've searched high and low for a 32 or 64Gb version. Which size did you get and where was it from bacause there are loads of us who would like to know where to get the larger memory versions.
Why is this so difficult? Many people, like myself, were looking to finally switch from iPhone to the S4. But I won't live with 9Gb available. I just won't. They had a huge opportunity with this launch, and they have completely squandered it.
I did see 1 international (South Korean) version for sale on eBay, however apparently LTE doesn't work on that model in the US. I have seen several listings touting 32GB, but then the details pages reveal that they are all 16+16. Today thee were two new listings for 32GB that don't say 16+16, but I have emailed the sellers for clarification since I find it hard to believe that random people would get them first.
Its a myth .. i have being waiting for samsung to release anything greater then 16gb since s2 times..
S2 -> Tab 7.7 -> S3 all annouced 32 or 64.. but none reach my country.
So do not keep your hopes up for 64gb.. 32gb maybe..

i actually expected the same situation which i why i went ahead and bought the s3 16gb only to find them release the 32gb a month or so later so now im not sure what they plan to do and i just hope they release it soon cause i really want to buy the phone and dont want to get stuck with 16gb again.

32 GB at AT&T.
Hey everyone !
Just made a petition to make Samsung release the 32gb and the 64gb. I know that on AT&T the 32gb has been released, but not everywhere and the 64GB is still missing. Please sign (at least for helping others) and share the petition link: http://www.change.org/petitions/release-the-samsung-galaxy-s4-with-32-and-64-gb-internal-memory
Best regards.

Good evening,
I was unable to find 32GB version of Samsung Galaxy Tab anywhere and I did extensive research. Is there even one being sold?
I mean 32GB of internal memory, not deals on ebay/carphone/anywhere with added free 16 microSDHC card. Even retail stores were unable to answer my question (London).
I can buy the card myself, I just hope they will introduce the proper 32GB version before Christmas...
Few available on eBay. Not sure which 3G bands they're using though.
to my knowledge it comes with 16GB max on device storage, could be wrong but that is what i have been told (in the US atleast)
ebay has nothing...

they are 16GB version with free 16GB microSDHC card, I've just checked ebay.co.uk minute ago
I don't want US version, the topic is about European versions (with "phone" capabilities) which were promised to come in 2 flavours, 16GB and 32GB.
So far the 32GB version is nowhere to find, maybe it's the "rumored AMOLED" who knows ;-)
Its been available here (Holland), but it sells out really fast it seems, and that will only get faster as the Tab is now starting to be seriously advertised (and is available here free on contract).

are you sure it wasn't bundle with a 16GB card?
according to news on engadget (sorry no link low posts), 1 million Galaxy Tabs are already sold (probably to retail stores only but it's success anyway):
yet no matter how hard you try, you won't find real 32GB version in UK which is usually the first "IT European Market" beating Germany most of the time in avaiability, so Holland avaiability is surprising...
any Dutch internet link that I can import/buy the 32GB version to UK? I assume 3G would work fine if it's not locked...

Yep, but its contract only and gone again! Whenever I've seen it online it goes straight to the top of the contract sales charts and is sold out within a couple of days. Its common for very popular devices to be contract only initially as thats where the operators make the most money. I would assume thats the reason its so tough to get right now and with Samsung's revised prediction of 1.5m by the end of year (a 50% increase), its highly unlikely you'll find one before the end of the year.
32GB version still hard to find...
Christmas is almost here and 32GB version in UK is non-existent, and I'm pretty sure it is scarce throughout the whole Europe (I've just checked Germany and some) except very few (above) exceptions.
although Amazon dropped the price to £399, which makes 16GB version bloody cheap and tempting, I need 32GB version (internal memory) of Galaxy Tab instead (various reasons).
thanks for anybody helping me with the quest, I really wonder how Samsung could fail so much of delivering on promises, and is realasing useless "luxury" versions instead...
Sorry to hear of your plight CowGaR.
If you decide 16GB + 16GB is acceptable im selling my tab as we speak, including the keyboard dock and official case. Its literally a week old and stock firmware. It comes as new with protective films attached, acceories sealed and with a reciept. Ive got £600 worth of entertainment codes as well. Just got a tab through work so im gonna shift this one and have an iPad as well to keep the family happy.
Ill get round to posting a link in the market section later.

Weren't carphone doing a 32gb one or was it just a free micro sd bundle
I would like to know what the community thinks is the best option.
Since I have to buy the SIII off contract. I was wondering if it would be worth the extra €100 to get the 32GB version in stead of the 16GB.
I'm guessing 16GB would be more then enough, but I've seen quite some people commenting about the 32GB or even the 64GB model.
I would keep my SIII for 2 or 3years so it might be wise to get the 32GB model.
What are your thoughts and why do you prefer your choice?
16GB, dont need much more than that since i got an sdcard of 16Gb aswell and never got to full capacity.
Originally I wanted to go with the 64GB model but I've pre-ordered today the 16GB version because delivery date (for 32/64GB) is still unknown. I will pick it up next thursday ! I'm counting the last days for my beloved desire, can't wait to ditch it finally
General discussion should be directed here.
There are also other "What one are you getting" threads around.

“The addition of the Samsung Galaxy S III to our portfolio of 4G-LTE devices gives our customers another truly cutting-edge smartphone to choose from,” said Jeff Bradley, senior vice president, Devices, AT&T Mobility. “With an exclusive red color this summer and the power of the nation’s largest 4G network, AT&T delivers the best wireless experience for Galaxy S III fans.”

Hmm weird. Engadget also missed it too.
No delivery date given though.

Same here, if it looks good that will be the one I go with. Sure we only get 16GB but we get a special color!
16gb is fine, I've got a 64gb card. That makes up for it.
Just checked with ATT, I am ready to upgrade
*639# on your phone will send you an SMS with your upgrade availability. I know most of you probably know that, just trying to save at least one person some time in searching.

Cool I forgot about that easy way to check, thanks. Hmmm I will be out of contract for the first time in yearsssss in a few weeks, what actual benefits are there of buying a non-contract phone? Is there an HSPA+ US variant I could buy and lower my databill to medianet if I wanted?
I don't see the 2GB RAM mentioned in US AT&T SIII "official" announcement. Didn't the other US providers mentioned 2GB RAM in their S III variants?
Not all the providers provided the specs. However, Samsung USA did announce that all US carriers will have S4 with 2gb.

Well, you could buy one of these out of contract. The international version is also an option. That one wouldn't have 4G LTE, but *should* have HSPA+. I'm sure somebody else can verify, I haven't looked into international phones much.
Correct, you can get the international version which will provide you with HSPA+ speeds but no LTE. You will also get the quad core Exynos with 1 GB of RAM versus the dual core with 2 GB that is in the US and Canada variants.
I know the ATT and roger model will be identical.
How about the T-mobile version?
Would the t-mobile version work with att once unlocked?
is all the NA version the same, and contain all the band?
I want the 32gig but I have ATT.

No, they don't "have to", they differentiate to reduce competition. So if you find "money drains away from you" for no good reason, perhaps it's time to buy unlocked.
Our phones hardly take advantage of the 1gb of RAM that they currently come with. What difference will 2gb of RAM make? Also, will the s4 snapdragon provide better battery life? I'd like to pre-order the pebble blue as soon as I can. I can't imagine the Red version looking good at all.
I'm really interested to see how the red will work. If it is a good shade of red (perhaps DR. Pepper can red), then I will be more inclined to get it. Tough choice though.
All I wanted was black lol
microSD cards are so cheap now, why does it matter that we only get the 16gb version? Hell, I'll take your $50, send you a class 10 16gb microSD card to make up the difference and I'll still have enough left to put a decent amount of gas in my car. Deal?

Has anyone managed to discover any news as to whether the 32GB model of the G2 will be available on contract in the UK?
I saw a suggestion a few days ago that O2 had exclusivity on it - but they don't appear to be selling the 32GB and I haven't seen anything to back that comment up.
Planning on popping into a Three store to ask - but don't expect they will have any info.
What about the 32GB version from Mobicity? Anybody tried it yet?

He asked for contract 32gb version.
From my searches on the net no uk providers are offering a 32gb version on contract.
Not even as an exclusive. unlike some european providers have exclusive 32gb offerings
of contracts.
it seems that only retailers are offering 32gb versions.
which is a bummer. 16gb with no sd card option. has stopped me getting this nice phone
i'm hoping and waiting to see if any providers wise up and start stocking the 32gb version.
as im sure like myself quite a few people would snap the g2 32gb up on contract.
fingers crossed
Quite so, Brock. The 16GB has never really been enough on my Galaxy Nexus. I'm not putting myself through another two years of carrying 40% of the music I want.
Agreed... I just wish they would realise that we want higher storage. That stopped me even thinking of getting a N4 (at the time) & now the G2. Shame really.
Also... Surely, 64GB should be standard by now anyway?. Its funny how Clockspeeds and GPU's always keep raising... Yet, storage is still the same as a mobile that is over 2/3 years old?!.

you can use a usb stick with a very short female (full size for usb stick) usb to male mini usb (phone end) cable,widely available as the phone recognises it and then you can keep your extra stuff on usb I know its not ideal but it does work
Samsung said S5 in 16 or 32gb. I want it only if 32gb plus micro sd card.
Has anyone seen for sale yet that will sell in the UK
Both the 16gb and 32gb models will have the microSD slots. The S5 will be available in 150 countries starting April 11th.
I'm not sure about this but I think Samsung tend to wait a couple of months before they release the higher capacity versions. I think it took a extra couple of months for the 32gb note 2 to come out when I got one there was only a 16gb. But that may have only applied to my region.
Could be samsungs way of hoping you buy their device twice. I reckon it would be wishful thinking on their part. But I don't think I've seen a 32gb device released this year with microSD.
I'll be waiting for the 32gb version too, and will also be getting myself a 128gb microSD when they are released.
So far all the pre orders are for the 16gb. That's just not enough free memory for me in the internal storage. I couldn't move my setup from my Note 3 to the S5

It's got to be available to buy first... It's a mysterious phone model at the moment.
Verizon sells the 16GB in store and only offers the 32GB version online, they claim users don't buy the 32GB version due to the extra $50. I guess those same users prefer less food for the same money, less gas mileage for the same money and lower IQ's.
At least there is an online option. Nothing here in UK yet

Once theres root (and i can't see that taking a long time) Folder mount will be working with the S5 so all your huge apps/games will be able to be moved to the SD card in their entirety so the 16GB model shouldn't be an issue, although 32GB would be a very welcomed feature.
For me 32GB should be standard, 16GB in this day and age simply isn't enough., especially if you've chosen not to root the device and can't use apps like folder mount.
Root is no good as it voids warranty now there is Knox. Plus certain apps I have detect root and won't run.

Not in Europe.
Given what Samsung is doing with the country lock restriction it may get harder to buy elsewhere and bring it back to your home country without first activating it.
Yet no places in the UK have the 32gb on offer for pre order yet

See I know no one wants to hear this, but this is where Apple is very strong. They sell all models and colors upfront. AT&T doesn't even have the blue GS5 available. Of course if it becomes available later, the blue will not come with 32GB of storage. Its ridiculous.

Well that's kinda questionable with the iPhone 5s launch (it was pretty much black only for a month or two), but at least they had them. No exclusivity crap. I have no love for Samsung and their exclusivity at every possible turn. They play favorites more than any other company. EVERYTHING goes to South Korea many months before everywhere else. I commend them on the global S5 launch, but Snapdragon 800 S4 anyone? Galaxy Round? S4 Black? As one of Samsung's larger markets, we're pretty left out.
