How much free space for storage when new?

[kimdad]

Hi, I am going to buy a Galaxy Tab S7 and I am wondering whether to get the 128 gigabyte version or the 256.
Assuming to get the 128 gigabyte version, how much free space for storage does the system offer during the first days of use? I mean, after some web surfing and YouTube use but before installing some heavy apps and saving photos, videos and music files on the main storage.
In other words, how much storage space is used on average by the system after some days of use before installing hundreds of megabytes of apps and pictures/videos/music?

Thank you!

Idk if this will help you ,but I just got mine last week and I'm at 32gb used so far. That's with about 30 apps , maybe 5 photos, and no videos.

I didn't look to see how much space I had before using the device.

You will probably find 128 GB will become limiting. The system and basic apps will consume nearly 50 GB. You will be happier down the road going with at least 256 GB. In addition to upgrading to 256 GB you will go from 6GB of ram to 8 GB of ram.

I have had the 128 GB version for about a year now. I have between 180 - 200 apps installed, including a couple of Bible apps with fairly exhaustive libraries. Mine is using about 72.5 GB of storage space. I use the tablet daily for many different purposes and am completely satisfied with it
