Above is a screen shot from my Samsung Galaxy Note 3.  It comes with 32gb as standard ie. there is no 16gb version. Based on my memory used I could swap to a 16gb S5 and install the same apps.  I would run out of memory.

So why is Samsung offering its new Galaxy S5 in 16gb. Reports from MWC report as much as 7-8gb memory has been used by the operating system.

Now Samsung did mention a 32gb version would be available but only if the networks and major distributors import it into the UK. Based on previous years this seems unlikely.

Really its a bit disappointing that in 2014 we are still being cheated in this manner.
