Without knowing my specific needs if anyone could help with their best guess advice
Today is the last day, my 14th day for an exchange at T-Mobile
I have the 16gb white galaxy s3. Love the phone
The 32 gb was not out until a few days after i got mine
I have the 16gb plus a 32gb extSDcard
I normally think that is more than enough combined space. I, like so manynof my friends keep only curremt music on it, etc..not ALL my music
But one case where it does matter. If I were to use Music Square, which is an awesome feature, the music has to be on the phone
16gb gets crowded. Although I could continue to weed the music down to that amount
....as long as there won't be any other issues
Can anyone who has been in this scenario think of where, not the combined ammount of space matters, but rather the amount on your phone like the music square
Will I encounter any other issues that may encourage me to get the 32gb on the phone.
Your best guess not knowing me but knowing I have basic uses and 64 mb combined is probably enough to help answer this is greatlybappreciatedin either putting a mind to rest or getting me out there to spend that extra 53 bucks
Thank You

To be honest Id spend the extra $53 for piece of mind. Better safe than sorry IMO. If you decide you need more space you'll spend more later trying to buy a 32gb after your 14days and the headache of trying to sell your 16gb. I dont dl music but i think for google music it caches it in the internal memory and not sd card. But in my case I play a lot of games and games data are stored in the internal. Right now I only have 6gb out of the 12 (I have the 16gb model for tmo). I also have the 32gb sprint but its been deactivated and it still has 19gb of space. There are times I wanna switch back to sprint just to have the 32gb again but I cant stand 3g. I would love to have the 32gb but I bought my tmo s3 at costco and they currently dont offer the 32 gb otherwise I wouldve jumped on it.

Well first they will charge a restocking fee. Second it should be fine with 16gb.. Of course it depends on usage. I personally have the blue 16gb with a 32gb class 10 samsung sd. Plenty for my needs. The only reason I would consider getting the 32gb is because the flash memory on the galaxy is WICKED fast... Loading times are great. I don't personally play too many games so for me the 16 is adequate. For music I have a combination of music in Google play and the rest is stored on my sd card.

Personally, I feel more space is always better, however, if you plan on filling the internal sdcard with 32GB of files, media, games, whatever, good luck if your phone takes a dive on you. I keep only games and apps on my 16GB internal then back them up with titanium backup on my 32GB extsdcard. I keep all of my files I don't want to lose there and backed up on my PC. As far as filling up your internal memory with games, the real question is, how long do you plan on hanging on to Plants vs Zombies? Just delete the games you're sick of and replace them with new ones. You'll have a newer, better phone before you ever start worrying about needing more space to save stuff on anyways. Besides, stuff on your phone that you haven't used or looked at in over a month should probably be deleted or stored away on a backup somewhere safe. Digital hoarding is a real problem a lot of us have to break.
think of it this way, it's ONLY $53 for double the storage. compare this to a few months ago and some other phones, they are $100 more for double capacity. i'd switch it if there are no other fees involved.
The real question should be whether or not you need more than 71gb of useable space on your phone. For the $53 difference plus $30 restocking fee you can wait for a good deal on Sandisk Ultra 64gb cards or buy it at normal internet price. Using external cards have the added benefit of securing your information in case your phone craps out our you mess up flashing a rom.
$53 these days can more than double your memory these days.
I have the 32GB version and glad I got it. Yes, $50 for basically 16GB is a rip-off compared to sd card prices. On the other hand, I'm already down to 15GB of free space. Now, I also havent' tried to save space. I have at least 2 full nandroids (one stock, and one customized), plus a bunch of games + data. I also haven't put in an sd card yet. However, I also haven't gone crazy trying to fill it up, so this is after fairly normal usage.
Disclaimer: if I had to pay another $30 restocking fee, I'd probably just try to live with it.
I went with a White 32GB from VZW. I got the day they launched, there was a promo through Best Buy Mobile that got 25% off. So it made sense to get it, it made it cheaper than the 16gb. but to answer the question, i wanted the 32gb. More storage, fast load times, and hope higher resale value in about 6-8 months..
I've never been charged a restocking fee.
You can never have enough space. Just go for it. It's one of those things where if it's on your mind to even consider a 32gb over the 16gb, just do it or it'll linger in your head and drive you crazy

Thanks for everyone's advice
I opted for the 32gb today. I did have to pay a restocking fee....$50
I had an older phone returned where I was told they had a different size. this is a little different, but I may call or write Retention and see if it can be refunded
As far as some ideas to just go with the larger sd card in place of the phone storage, that was the initial problem, the reason is that I wanna put all the music on the phone, which is where it has to be in order to use the Music Square feature.....which I like
As far as the sd cards go, I hear different things. I hear that it does handle 64gb micro sd, but that the 32 is preferred, and you may have to jump thru hoops for it to work, at the very least format it on the phone
Is that right, the 32 is best?
(excuse my ignorance, maverick or anyone, how is 71gb calculated?)
Again, thanks everyone

I've got a 16 gig phone. Installed the all my apps on the internal SD card and I still have 10 of the 12 gig left. I doubt I'll ever have 12 gigs of apps.
I just bought a Sandisk 64 gig card, plugged it in and started copying file to it. No Hoops. The S3 can use native xD format cards. The card was $54 delivered from Amazon. So, 59 actual gigs on the Ext card, plus 12 actual gigs on the int card, that's 71 actual gigs. Is that enough? It is for me.
Also remember that internal memory is generally faster than external memory.

I hinestly have all my music on my ext card and i have no issues... thats the whole point of that thing fir me is to hold my music videos and pictures... got a 32gig which is plenty. My gs3 is the 16 gig and anything that was internal i have moved to the external (related to media) and i have no problem accessing it with anything. I use google music and the miui music player for audio. And then video. Its whatever came with the phone.. lol i think google play movies or something

Thanks Poit...unless you're buying all the latest bubblegum / boi band music and getting made fun of by your adult male friends lmao.... aka One Direction (awesome cd by the way)
btw I think I saw that amazon link posted on here. I may look into, just to have max space
Space to move on the phone helps the speed (question), but space on the sd card does not help the speed correct?
Like I said, i wanna use music square, where there is no choice but to have the media on the phone, not the sd card
I would consider using Google Play again, especially stored in the 'cloud' if you will (is that a generic term now), but when you play it from there it is considered 'streaming' and uses your data, correct? needs to be stored on the phone/or sd card to not be considered streaming and using data?
I'm thinking of ordering a Nexus 4 but I'm confused about which version to order. Would 8GB actually be too less? How much actual storage space will I have, considering the space the OS and other required components will take?
I'm not planning to store any movies in my phone, nor store too many HD videos. Just some HD games and 4GB or so of music.
Any suggestions? Will I regret taking the 8gig version?

As they say when purchasing a TV, go one size bigger. But honestly for $50 more you get twice the storage. As apps update, some of them will also increase (maybe dramatically) in size. You want to make sure that you will have space for your favorite apps and the media you want on it.
You don't want to go down the line in the future and say to yourself "Why didn't I buy the 16GB!?!"
Those are just my thoughts on it. I bought my 16GB with that in mind.
I make 8gb work. Could I use 8gb more? Yes. I don't have very many apps on my phone (23 on Google Play), roughly 4gb of music playlists saved for offline and I have a gigabyte left of storage to download more apps or keep some more music. I do everything online and that is how I make it work. I also don't play games on my phone. It also helps that I'm rooted and probably have stripped 500mb of system apps from the stock ROM. I was on a tight budget and I'm happy with my phone, although at times 8gb cuts it very close after formatted memory, haha.

"Some HD games and 4GB of music", you would definately need the 16GB model. its always nice to have some free space just inacse
Yes there's nothing wrong with future proofing yourself if you can afford it as this phone has no SD card slot
I think the general rule is that if you ever doubt yourself in this situation, it's a safer route to stick with 16gb.
I have an 8gb and I was worried about the storage space. I'm amazed at how much you can save with 8gb. You have to learn to not save a bazillion nandroid backups and save as much as you can on some type of cloud or something. I'm using box.com and have hundreds of pics and files saved there. I've learned to just not save useless things. With that said if you play games a lot get the 16gb it can't hurt. BTW I ordered a 16gb on play store on the 13th which I've still yet to receive so I got a 8gb from craigslist for a price I couldn't away. I'm now planning on selling the 16 to a buddy of mine when I get it. I'm perfectly happy with my 8gb I am fully rooted and have a custom recovery which happens to take most of my used space and I still have Lil over 3GB.

Too little. As in, "The 8 GB version has less space, having fewer GB than the 16 GB version, but is it too little?"
GRAMMAR NAZI AWAAAAAY!
I bought a 16GB because that's the smallest tier storage I've ever bought in all my phones, but I rarely use more than a couple gigabytes. The main reason is to not worry about storage at all vs managing your storage sometimes (like deleting Google Music Cache, disabling YouTube preloading etc.)
Besides the resale value, there is honestly no use for me with the 16GB.
It all comes to how you plan to use the device and consume content. I used to have 4GB of music, but honestly only listened to maybe 100MB worth at any given time... so once I truncated that, I've never had space issues with 8GB devices unless a long trip and I wanted some movies (but now I have a tablet for that).
Which do you have? I have a 16GB Nexus 4 which I am struggling with recently but most of that is due to accumulation of whatsapp pictures and stuff. Which do you have and how are you filling it up?

I ordered a 32. Would have gone for 64. I keep all of my music in FLAC and currently have it on a mSD card in my Note 10.1. I'm using an 8 GB Moto G at the moment, and I have almost nothing loaded on it. My goal is to be able to keep whatever I want on one device.
Same here. I retired my ZuneHD and have started keeping all of my music on my phone, so I absolutely needed 32gb. Spend the extra money and buy the bigger size, trust me it's worth it if you're asking this question.
I recently went back to my nexus 4 to sell my other devices. The 16gb storage is rough. It's really not enough anymore.
I went with 32gb. For $50 to not regret not having enough storage is a no brainer.
32gb more than enough for me
I have a 32 gb 2013 Moto X and it is just barely enough. I would buy a 64 gb 2014 X in a heart beat.
i have the 16gb, it's fine for me, still have 4gb of space. i don't game on my phone and not many apps.
my htc one was 32gb, never used more than 14gb, and that was a year's worth of stuff
The 32gb version only have 24.39gb of free space, I image the 16gb only have a little more than 10gb.
Went with 16 since I was impatient so went with a carrier version and they only had 16. I'm coming from a 32g HTC one m7, which replaced a 32g nexus 5 with a cracked screen. Haven't had this little storage since the nexus 4. I'm planning on deleting pictures and video every week and just having them on the cloud, which will be a change. I don't game. And now that I have a locked boot loader phone, with little development anyway, I won't need to keep various ROMs, themes, radios, backups, etc on my phone. Only thing left for me is Google music which I'm planning on cherry picking albums every now and then to keep my streaming usage down. Overall I think I can deal with 16gigs. But I'd prefer more, just to have more music space.

if i can find my OTG cable, i'll just use a flash drive for my music in my car so i don't have to stream.
It just depends on what you need... For me 16gb is more than sufficient. This is going to sound weird, but i had the nexus 5 16gb since release and have never been full.
My music library is close to 16GB so I went with the 32. I try to buy the best version of everything (real life car trims, phones, etc) so I'm not kicking myself in the ass later for being cheap.
I went with 32gb. I'm on T-Mobile and use Google play all access, so storage space for music is a non-issue as I can stream as much as I want. BUT... When I had my nexus 5, I only had 16gb and pics and videos filled the damn thing up too much. My G3 had 32gb (I didn't have a memory card) and I didn't have to worry about space, so I went with 32gb on the moto X.
Even with just 24 Gig of free space of the 32 Gig model, doesn't the filesystem start to slow down when it's close to 80% being full? Causing phone lag?
Went with the 32gb and barely have 10gb used thanks to movies. I had a note 3 prior with 32 GB plus a 64gb SD card... Never needed the SD card unless doing file transfers between my phone and the wife's.

I went to a lot of extra trouble to get the 32GB version (only the 16GB version is available here in Holland) . Your phone will just be faster with more storage (that's how emmc works) but 16 GB's does fill up rather fast if you want to go on holiday and put some maps there or if you want to record some videos or just shoot a lot of pictures
16gb for me. My photos and videos gets backed up to cloud automatically and music is streamed.

So far, as far as I know, yes. All the in-shop phones I am aware of are 16 GB.
I've had my 32GB Nexus 6 since 11/19 and am really liking it. I have over 25 GB still after loading all my typical music and apps. At this point, I'm not really sure I want a 64 GB--though I had initially wanted one--even didn't try to buy a 32GB the 1st week looking only at the elusive 64's.
How many of you 32'ers out there still want more memory?
I've always had either a 8GB or 16GB phone, 32GB is already a step up for me. Even with 16GB I never filled the phone up. I'll typically have some pictures and music on my phone, I don't have a need to keep a bunch of stuff on there that I'm not using. If I needed to go over 32GB's there would be a lot of stuff on my phone that I never use.
I was originally pining for the 64GB, but just to have the best of the best.
My Nexus 7 is 32, and I've never come close to filling it. I'm sure that's different for everyone, but with cloud services galore I need very little storage for shot vids and pictures. With all apps installed and 20+GB to spare, I no longer regret my decision or want a 64GB model.
The 64 would just mean 32gb worth of extra crap wasting room.
I don't store much locally other than backups, so I have plenty of room.
I had a 32gb LG G3 with a 64gb Micro SD in it before the Nexus 6. I used approximately 5gb on the card and maybe the same on the phone. More than 32gb is overkill for me since I don't put music on the phone and I don't download tons of games.
I haven't pulled the trigger on the N6 yet, awaiting to see how VZ will screw me over...
On the side though, currently using a GNex, I never filled it up either, have about 10Gb free, however that said, I haven't loaded games or a lot of apps onto it, only what I need, and if not used often I uninstall basically to not have to deal with any background processes that may run due to an app being installed.
But given the choice, and I hope I am, I'll likely settle on the 64Gb, because I typically only have one phone at a time, and keep it longer then what most of us here would consider normal, I mean, I'm hitting three years on the GNex, and figure I'll be doing the same if it is an N6, so for a few bucks more grab the extra storage, easier than wishing I had it IF I fill up a 32Gb ...
Got my 32 blue today and it is more than enough. I don't store movies or play games and i only store about 2-4 gigs of music and it gives me enough space to do a ROM backup, etc.

I have had a Nexus 5 with 32 GB for about a year, and it almost always has > 20GB free. I figured if I never used all the memory on the N5 I sure didn't need twice as much on the N6, so I went with the 32. I'm sure it will be more than enough.
Would I have loved getting a 64GB? Yes but the 32GB will do just fine for me. Coming from a Note 2 I barely used any space on the internal storage and I really only used about 15GB on my 64GB micro sd card. I mostly stream my music so I won't have to worry about that. I also don't keep numerous roms on my device storage either. Worst case scenario I'll just by an OTG flash drive if I really need the space.
Well I was going to wait for the 64 version from ATT.....then my local store received a big shipment of one last night...so I impulse bought it lol. I didn't have an issue with my N5 16GB, so I think I'll just stick with it.
I have more than 21 GB available, so I'm sure I'll be just fine with the 32 GB.
external storage, no problem
now that I found that you can use an external micro usb sitck as external storage... I connect the usb stick, when on the wireless charging pad for additional power draw of the stick, and use it just for nandroid backups and tibu dump site. then remove it, relieving the 32gb onboard just to do phone stuff. plenty of room now.:good:
I ordered a blue 32gb, expect Sensei Kernel on this beast
I just received my 32 GB from Moto. I am really liking it though I still want my 64GB from T-mo that is in back order purgatory.
On the 32gb model, how much storage is available after initial setup? Thinking of picking up a N6 once it comes back in stock and was trying to decide if 32gb would suffice.

24-25GB
It depends how you use your phone... personally i have no issue what so ever with 32GB... in fact i had 8 GB free on my 16GB Nexus 5 , so 25GB ( usable ) is a **** tonne for me
I use Spotify for music and plex for movies , so a lot of streaming on my end
I returned my 32gb and ordered a 64gb... But I'm getting tired of waiting and may just cancel my order and say screw it and just use my iPhone 6.. T-mobile's order process sucks.!

Hi guys, just wondering if most users here buy the 16gb version or 32gb?
I currently have an M7 (yes, it's ancient lol) and looking to get this Moto X Pure, but wondering if I should get the 32gb version or 16gb. I am thinking 16gb since it has a microSD slot so i can add a 64gb or 128gb card for additional storage.
Will a 16gb hinder the device's performance? I probably won't have too many games or apps. Mainly the google apps, facebook, twitter, etc.
Thanks
32 . don't let $50 stand in your way.

thanks, is there a reason to go up to 32gb?
would apps and rom require that much to run smoothly?
I would also reccomend 32gb . Internal storage loads faster than SD card in my experience .
64gb.
64. No question. The more internal space, the better.

I never filled my 16 gig n5 up and I still l decided on the 32 gig. Future proofing and whatnot especially with Google doubling the size that apks from the play store can be.
16gb. Top-of-the-line 64gb cards often go on sale for around $30, and once android M is out, the difference between internal and a fast external SD card will be minimal. Twice the storage and cheaper than going 32gb internal now

That is my thinking. Android M is just around the corner by the time I get this phone in hands.
64GB MicroSD card with write speed around ~80MB/sec can be had for around $30. Or the 128GB can be had for around $50-$60.
So why pay $50 for an additional 16GB? Unless there's something about the extra 16GB internal that directly correlates to a phone's performance.

64GB MicroSD card with write speed around ~80MB/sec can be had for around $30. Or the 128GB can be had for around $50-$60.
So why pay $50 for an additional 16GB? Unless there's something about the extra 16GB internal that directly correlates to a phone's performance.

Agreed, I'm shopping out cards now and plenty of good options below $50 for plenty of additional storage. I back up often and don't have the need to have to carry large amts of data on device myself. The 16gb was an acceptable and more affordable option for me.
Hi
Hi,
I went with a 32gb with a 64gb sd card!!
Some apps need to be on internal memory to run.
Everything else goes to sd card.

I also switched from an M7 (love the phone, but it is getting dated) and went with 32 gigs. No particular reason other than a little future-proofing as mentioned. I never really did fill up my 16gb M7 though.

Same here. My M7 with 16gb internal, and 32GB external, still have about 28GB left. Only ROM and apps on the internal, and pretty much everything else is on the external SD.
I went with 32GB internal and an 128GB microSDXC card. I was bumping the 16GB limit with nandroid backups on my old phone, and 32GB gives me plenty of room for apps and backups. The 128GB takes care of my music and videos. Thought hard about 64GB, but $50 for the 64GB or the 128GB external card, the later won in a landslide.
Pls tell me actual storage space in 16 gb & 32gb version of moto x style/pure...
64gb. I believe 64gb leave 53gb open or thereabouts.
I got the 16 gig and bought a 64 gig SD card for $17. After all the nexus phones w/o SD card option I'm extremely happy with it now. Will only get better with 6.0

I ran out of space so quickly with my 16GB N5 that I refused to have that issue again, I chose 64 on the X and will supplement that with a 128 SD, I enjoy podcasts, cache from Play Music and transfer pictures from my sony rx camera to edit and share. Its also nice not to worry about space, ever.
I went with 16gb internal and a 128gb sd card. My tablet has 64gb internal and also has a 128gb card so I'm all set.
The 32gb was in-stock on amazon, and it would have been another 2 weeks though motomaker, so i bought the 32 white,chp,white and love it.
I probably would have done black, red, black. but now that i have mine i see lots of people with the black red combo.
the white back looks great with the white front, way better than my 2013 dev unit with the black front and white back.
