16 GB? WTF??!

[kevincwelch]

Three thoughts:

1. I listen to music in places where there is no reception -- 3G or wifi.
2. I have a lot of photos and videos.
3. I use my phone as a dropbox dump.

16 GB is not that much.

Plus, you assume that Sprint will never have tiered data systems. That's going to end; I guarantee you. If you listen to a couple hours of music per day (streaming) or watch some Netflix every now and again, you're over your 4GB monthly (Verizon) limit. It doesn't sound like you will overuse, but you will.

Internet outages + tiered data plans = gimme the RAM.

what kind of pictures are you taking? are you a professional photographer?

No, Just a guy who doesn't like taking !#$#$%$^ photos. Read any review and any Gnex forum. That camera is not worth upgrading for. First smarthphone? Sure. But this isn't my first smartphonea and I refuse to upgrade and spend money on mediocrity. I don't like the phone that much.

If and when Sprint loses unlimited, and that's long off. Sprint just doubled down on unlimited (again). And even then I'll be grandfathered in. If THAT ultimately goes away I won't have need for a smartphone anyway. I use over 10gb/mo. Local storage for me is for times when I don't have a data connection. I can store a few HD movies and a few top tracks until I'm back in service area.

Okay, everyone can unbunch their panties now. Sprint confirmed its the 32gb version.

Now they can whine that the price is $299 instead of $199.

Sprint says its Google Galaxy Nexus will have 32GB of storage

As long as they put a QUALITY radio in this device so I can get a great 3g/4g LTE/Wifi experience, I will be there in a heartbeat. I'll buy it.

I wouldn't hold my breathe for a Motorola radio experience in a Samsung.

For the record though, I haven't had any signal problems with my NS4G

Man I wish my two different NS4Gs didn't have signal problems. The dual core photon is nice but the ROM support etc and overall happiness with my NS4G was pretty high up there. I don't expect a Motorola radio, just a working radio that does the job.

I never really had problems with my radio, but somehow since I've been running ICS, my signal is actually better. All I can think of that may be the cause is maybe a radio voltage change, bit its nice.

Awesome! I'd rather complain about price for what I want anyway. ;p

Seriously though, that's what I'll get. After all, I did spend that much for my wife's iPhone, I won't mind spending it for my Nexus

16GB/32GB......not a deal breaker, especially with all of the streaming options such as Spotify, Pandora and so on, and as far as watching movies.....that's what cheap tablets with removable SD Cards are for....also not a deal breaker.

Camera issue should be resolved with Sprint's Nexus, from what I have read.

If the phone is $299, I'm cool with that......just think back to when we were paying those prices for far less superior phones a couple of years ago.

I hope the speed is up to par because Sprint 3G coverage sucks sometimes in Upstate NY (not in my house though,since I have an Airave) and the closest 4G is in Syracuse and even that is sometimes spotty.

Why is this even being debated. Just go to the source.

4G LTE is coming to Sprint in 2012

it says 32gigs right there

In my opinion I'd rather have more space on the device/have sd card because no matter how fast your internet connection or how much space you can have in the cloud, streaming is going to eat much more battery then just pulling off of the device's storage.

Because the first day they had that up it said 16 gb. Since then they have fixed it, but the thread wasn't deleted and people still comment on it and with only three or so active threads this will be up high in the list until the phone is released.
