Do you have the 8GB Nexus 4 or the 16GB Nexus 4?

I had the 8 GB Nexus 4, but I recently upgraded to the 16 GB model. It's always better to have more storage space, and the 16 GB model is still a steal at $350.

Look like most people went for the 16GB version.

But androidcentral users might not reflect most Nexus 4 buyers. I wonder what the actual breakdown is.........Though only LG/Google would know and they are not telling.

Maybe 60% 16GB and 40% 8GB?????

I have the 16GB model, 8GB simply wasn't an option. Always better to have more storage than you need as opposed to getting with the lower priced model and worrying about running out of space literally out of the box.

16GB. Not using remotely half of it yet, but with no upgradeable storage bigger is definitely better.

**Doc Marten** · 01-31-2013, 03:13 PM

16 fer me.

**RodLS** · 01-31-2013, 03:43 PM

16GB of course. I still have 10GB free =)

**Hubertsng** · 01-31-2013, 03:44 PM

Wow. really thought people would have 8GB. I mean the 8GB was held up to no more way sooner than 16GB

**Lanhoj** · 01-31-2013, 03:46 PM

16GB for me.
8GB wouldn't be an option I would've considered.

**planoman** · 01-31-2013, 05:53 PM

16 GB. Have 12.1 free. So far I have not loaded any music any pictures or any games on to my Nexus 4. I am thinking about signing up for a Google Music and also Google drive to have the cloud coverage on my phone.

I only plan on using my Nexus on the weekends were I do not need as much battery life and or storage for that matter.

I have the 8GB version. I couldn't imagine using that much space.

Music?

8gig, I'm not really a big app user. I use my N4 mostly for talk/text and web browsing and camera.

I have an 8GB Nexus 4 and have no problems with space. I have had a couple of full length movies and downloaded some Spotify tracks on extreme quality and still had room. I do not install apps to fill space, only the ones I use quite often.

Feels like when I got my 1st gen iPhone, it also was 8GB and just managed what I put on it. I purposely tried to fill this phone but it was with things I just installed or loaded to do so, not because I needed them there.

Boyfriend and I both have 8gig. I don't put a lot on phones and music is usually Pandora.

16gb for me. I'm currently using less than half (thanks to Google Music and other cloud services), but I'm glad I didn't get the 8gb as I'm selling it in March when Blackberry 10 becomes available, and I reckon 16gb will be an easier sell.

yeah. I think i'll only use 10 GB max or 8 GB but the 8GB version only has 6 usuable space. A real bummer. google drive and box.com helps me a ton with my space, would've filled probably without it.

Google play music. All in the cloud. I have the 8 GB version and am very happy with it. All my pics are auto uploaded to Google +, all my music is on play music. I am keeping this phone for a while, and decided to ultimately save $50.

Yeah, 8gb is very doable. In the screenshot I posted above, I'm using under 5gb and I have a ton of apps, music (Google Music in the cloud), and pictures (in Google+/Picasa also in the cloud).

Define "a ton of Apps", please.
Just curious as some find 50 alot, while others find 100 alot. Personally I have 150-ish with 0 games so just wondering how many you've got.

**nokia4life** · 02-01-2013, 02:15 PM

16 gig for me 8gig is not enough for docs and music I do use drop box Google drive and Google + but play it safe for me.
