Is 32GB model enough storage?

[Harry Wild]

I have a hard time finding new S6 in 64GB size and even rarer 128GB models.

So is 32GB enough after music and apps? I like to have about 12GB left over!

Depends on what apps you use and how much music you put on your device.

The OS and Samsung's stuff used how much storage?

I say no. That's only like 25 usable.

Actual free space out of the box on 32GB models is in the neighborhood of 23GB, depending on version.

I'd find the 64G. You can never have too much storage.

I have about 28 hours of music, several hundred photos, a couple of dozen short videos (under 60 seconds), about 100 apps and still have over 9 gigs free.

Excellent question! I also want to know.

This slightly depends on the carrier/version. AC wrote that on the T-Mobile versions they received pre-launch, about 8.5GB was occupied (see: article). I'm pretty sure the AT&T version includes additional bloat, some of which can only be disabled and not uninstalled -- in my case (I'm on the 64GB model) the system storage shows up at just under 9.5GB.

Maybe that reason it so had to find; everybody is buying the 64GB model! I will chance it on the 32GB and selectively load my music playlist since my entire music is 12GB.

Thank for all your replies!

32 GB is usually 25 GB out of the box. And it depends what apps you will usem

Just purchased a T-Mobile S6 128GB - brand new too! I guess S6 storage will not be a concern to me anymore. The price difference between a new 32GB and 128GB was around $120 so I went for the maximum model!

Thanks for the help!

I just picked up a brand new 128gb at&t S6 from amazon for $649. Couldn't pass it up.

I know what you mean! I ordered my for $599 from eBay! I remember when this configuration was over $1,200 at some retail stores and carriers. The fact that it is brand new is really rare to get it at these prices.
