The 5GB Samsung Galaxy S16 only has 7,86GB of storage

Samsung Galaxy S5

After the presentation yesterday by the company Samsung of its new flagship in the smartphone industry, the Galaxy S5, new data has been known that users who are thinking of acquiring this device should take into account. When we are offered the 5 GB Samsung Galaxy S16 we must think that this it will not be your real capacity and therefore a great failure not to be cited by the company.

With your operating system Android installed and once we start it for the first time we realize that of the supposed 16 GB only will have 7,86 GB to be able to install applications or put any multimedia content. This case was also pointed out with its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy S4, that of the 16 GB that came printed on its package, the end user only 'saw' 8,56 GB. All this is because of the amount of space that Android occupies and more specifically the one that these Samsung terminals have installed.

The Korean company relies on the fact that the terminal can be add a MicroSD memory card to expand its storage, but of course, the buyer should know that if we install applications on the memory card instead of the internal memory of the device, these will not run at the same speed, and the 7,86 GB limitation means that the number of applications that can be installed by most users could be small. This case is less notable for the device with 32 GB of internal memory and the remaining can be more than enough, although the terminal goes up in price.

Apple has already been widely criticized for the capacity of its devices such as iPhone or iPad after formatting the internal storage and installing iOS. To cite actual capabilities of the Cupertino company's current products, the iPhone 5S 16GB has 12,9 GB actual For our use, the 5 GB iPhone 16C in turn has 12,6 GB, figures that would almost double those of the new Samsung phone.

What do you think that companies do not mention the real storage for the user of their devices?

    the truth is that it is a shame that all of us are deceived, it is worth that some more than another but at the end of the day they should put the real capacity of each device.

    I love my iphone and Apple products are the thinnest, most stylish, most powerful and most portable. One of the reasons why I don't like Samsung products: because in the benchmarks they cheat so that users think they are powerful. Why do they make commercials mocking the competition. And making comparisons where they win in everything. And because when you have a problem in the system, you have to wait a thousand years for an update to be released to correct it. because it does not have clear dates on updates. Pitches is a fucking mess. Apple you are the king. Heheheh how it hurts Samsung owners. But they must be used to it by now the truth hurts. Hahaha

      We are talking about an influential and important part in Apple, the competition, why is Samsung going to be present?

    In general it seems to me that the average user knows that the actual capacity is less than the theoretical one, but I think it should be clarified before when the difference is so large (less than half the theoretical capacity). This seems to me should be done by both Samsung, Apple, HTC, Nokia or any company that is in such a situation, although the perfect thing is to always say what the approximate real capacity of a product is so as not to encounter surprises.

    This reminded me of a certain quote from Mr. Lobo from Pulp Fiction ...

    You would like to have an S5 instead of your poor iPhone 5C>.
    I do not understand the desire of the blog to discredit Samsung?

    Hello good. I declare myself an official fanboy, I write from my 5s and I enjoy from my iPad air. That said, it seems to me an absolute shame that Apple, Samsung and whoever it is does not add more capacity to be able to install their operating system and that the customer is respected the capacity they buy. It is clear that the operating system occupies more and more with each revision and update but it does not seem to me that the client has to pay for it. If an iPhone is 16gb that Apple incorporates a storage of 20gb and thus we have what we buy of space.

    this website is dedicated to crushing samsung ...
    dear moderator there are more brands not only samsung if you want to start with android or samsung ...
    I have apple products and I work with apple .. but you are ashamed for others to criticize each other !!
    This website is apple, samsung or android, every week that I enter there is a criticism of a product that has Android on its system.
    I sincerely feel sorry that this website goes to this type of post so that people can debate as if it were a real madrid barça ..
    look at yourself what you reflect and insult each other just for a mobile phone while samsung and apple laugh in our faces.

    If for everything we put cushions like this, the world would be better.
    for everything else, leave your life for a terminal
    enough already man !!

    Go what we are going to criticize to crush Samsung ... If we talk about memory and that brands lie to us, you are also showing that Apple does it with its mobiles that only last 1 year working correctly.

    That's not all, like all Samsung products with Android, if you fill the internal memory of the device it does not matter that it has 48 cores, the phone becomes slow which causes it to be thrown against the wall. That and that external memory to transfer applications does not always work, most applications cannot be transferred to the external card. After all, I don't like Samsung because it misleads a lot with its advertising with its "small letters" behind each "new" feature that nobody ends up using.

    How can I change the internal memory of a Samsung S5 or is it not possible?
