Marshmallow and system storage

[phildev74]

So my AT&T variant V10 is now on MM and I noticed that on the storage screen it says that the System is using 12.52 Gb.

Now I know that it has 64 Gb onboard, but 12.52 is unbelievable. What is taking up that much room.

It can't be MM. There are still phones sold with 16 Gb. What has LG crammed into the ROM to make it 12.52?

Storage is partitioned into system, user storage and a few other things. Your system partition is still 12.52GB, and probably always will be. It's probably not 12.53GB of firmware, just 12.52GB reserved as the system partition.

Whatever it is, it's not the bloatware thats on Samsung phones. I'm glad I switched.
