[Q] Do we know the storage size?

[CyD13]

I won't bother getting a 16 gigabyte version. Do we know if it is 16, 32, or 64 gigabytes for the Verizon version?

16GB, but will support up to a 64GB(?) SD card.

For real? Not even 32 gigs? 5 gigs are taken by the system alone. That leaves just 11 gigs for apps with no apps to sd storage. Wow. Just wow.

Dude you can get a 64 micro sd class 10 from Amazon for around 55 bucks much cheaper than paying verizon for the extra memory. i have one in my S3 right now and it doesnt affect the speed of the device at all.

You know how Big Red rolls.
They will launch the 16g to all the early adopters at $299 and then once the minimum advertised price period is over (4-24-13) they will drop to $199 and sell 32g at $299.
We may never see the 64g version unless someone in marketing believes they can get a tablet price (+$350) for a phone with a 2 yr contract.

I think one of the bigger reasons for people wanting bigger internal memory is for the apps, as you can not move apps to sd. So someone who downloads a lot of apps (especially larger ones) will not benefit from external memory.

Aren't all carriers 16GB?

I thought they were supposed to fix that in ICS or JB? Maybe I was just wishful thinking, but I thought I read that somewhere?

With google pushing everything to the cloud, they don't want SD cards to hinder Android's performance so they got rid of Apps2SD in Jellybean.

At this point, yes.

I'm not even close to filling the memory on my Gnex. 16gig is plenty for me if I have an sd card for media.
