Should i buy a 32gb gs4(Please give advice)

[legend32]

i recently purchase a 16gb gs4 from verizon on june 26th. i was going to wait for the 32gb but i thought it wasnt coming since there was no official confirmation from verizon. I have heard about this update that it will allow gs4 users to move apps to the sd card. Also does the update allow you to move the whole app or just a small portion of it? I was wondering if i should wait for that app or take my phone back and get the 32gb version. Please give me some advice since i only have a week left of my trial period. also if there is a link you could give me for more info about this update i would appreciate it. Thank you.

I don't have the update bro as I'm on AT&T. My recommendation? If you can still exchange it during the buyers remourse period, do it! I had the same reservations as you, and actually had to call AT&T in order to do this as It was after my 14 day allowance. (I have 4-lines though) Bottom-line, I no longer have to worry if I have enough space, run out of room, etc...This is sufficient for me to have the piece-of-mind so I can use the phone the way I want, and don't have to worry about how for the next two years. And I don't regret my decision at all.
good luck..

I was in the same boat on ATT. I exchanged my 16gb on day one of the 32gb release. It just adds way too much additional flexibilty. If you can exchange it then you should.

I agree with the others. Return yours and wait for the 32GB version. You'll never have to worry about storage.

I waited for the 32GB on ATT. If you want 32GB, need it or want higher resell value I would consider getting the 32GB since the OS takes up more space than previous versions on the Galaxy series.

thank you for your input. going to take back the phone to walmart tomorrow for full refund and order the 32gb version

Yea I would take it back I have a 16GB and biggest mistake I made.

It's not an easy yes or no. I just picked up the 16 gb and a 32 gb sd card after checking the storage on my gnex. After pictures, I was only using 4 gb for apps (I stream music). Your situation may be different. Also, the difference wholesale is only 50$ (which isnt much more than a 32 gb sd card) but subsidized it's a $100 difference.

The only thing I can warn you about the 16gb model is that out of the box you only have 9 gb and change of usuable internal memory. Yes, there is an update in the future to move apps to the sd, but it will not be universal (app developers will need to allow their apps to be moved). Also, we have no timetable as to when this update will reach us.

Anyway, I'm wondering which way you're thinking of going?

If doubting the 16, return and get the 32. I tried to next day deliver one, but sold out until they get a new batch on Monday.

Doubting something up front is an intuitive instinct that usually is correct more than not.

Think im going to take back the 16gb so I can order the 32gb just so I dont have to worry about having enough space

I'd totally wait for the 32Gb version. I have the 16gb on Sprint and am down to 600Mb. I don't regret getting the 16 as i dont plan to download anyother games other than the ones i already have but if i had the choice I'd definitely get the 32Gb one just to have the extra storage. :thumbup:
