Running out of room

You have 10 gb more system/user data than I do anyway

Hi folks I keep on deleting apps yet just have 6 GB left. Is Oreo that big of a storage hog?

Oreo is not much bigger than Nougat.

Right now System takes about 11GB (10.9GB to be exact) on mine.

If that's the case, then why do I have approximately the same amount of free space with Oreo I had with Nougat?

Like I said previously, it's possibly one of those four issues. With a possible 5th; his phone is a counterfeit.

Edit: There is another reason the OP could be running out of space. If he is using apps like Amazon Prime Video, Movies Anywhere, etc., and he is downloading the movies to watch offline. Those apps automatically default to internal storage.

To the OP. If you are using the apps I just mentioned, and you are downloading the movies to watch offline, then make sure your SD card is set as the download for each of those apps.

So what does the DiscUsage app tell you? Did you down load it?

I wouldn't think it should be that bad even with Samsung add ons. At least from past use of Samsung phones for me it wasn't bad.

Here is my Pixel 2 XL for comparison (on latest update) for system usage and whatnot to compare to Oreo on Samsung.

It's not. And I'm thinking that people are confusing the file system overhead as, "system partition."

Every OS file system has overhead. That is why you never get a full 64GB on a 64GB SD card.

Woah! Am I right in saying the Note8 Oreo is smaller than Pixel 2 XL?

Your System is 12GB, mine is 10.9GB, and I am using a Vodafone branded Note8. So a non brand Note8 may even be a bit less.

Here's mine
