16, 32 or 64G iPhone 4S ???

kirkster · 20 Dec 2011 at 17:43

What do you think guys?

I don't store loads of videos and music tracks. I was thinking of going the 32G option. Is it really worth going up to the 64G? Do apps use loads of storage?

Looking at the three deal too for £35 pm. looks a good offer.

Depends on how many apps as well. I've never needed more than the 16GB

Cosmic182 · 20 Dec 2011 at 17:46

32 would be more than sufficient, mine is 32gb and think ive got over 20gb free, my ipad is 32gb too, in the past had loads of apps on, and thousands of music and then, only then I came near to filling it. 16gb would even do if you dont do hundreds and hundreds of useless apps.

Steve_bullockuk · 20 Dec 2011 at 17:57

Ive always gone for 16gb and have a lot of apps that I actually use rather than hundreds of novelty ones. It really does depend on what you want to use it for.

If you are using it as a gaming device as well as a media player you'll want the 32 at least. Personally, I went for the 64, as it isn't that much more expensive compared to the 32 (what's £100 when you are already spending £600?).

To be honest, I'd go for the 32 anyway. 16 seems to be pushing it for most to be honest.

64GB is definitely overkill just or apps. 16GB is fine for now for all but the heaviest gamers - but who knows how big games will get in the future. Apart from games and sat nav, apps don't tend to take up much space.

I've got 28GB on my 32 iPhone; once you add some music, photos and apps it soon mounts up.

Johnny|lucidcomposure · 20 Dec 2011 at 20:19

Mines 32 gig and is nicely packed wit h stuff leaving me with about 18gig. not got many videos or owt like that though yet. Which I wanna start doing.

kirkster · 20 Dec 2011 at 20:59

Thanks guys, think I am going to go with the 32G.

16Gb is MORE than enough.

Lighters · 20 Dec 2011 at 21:04

Got the 64gb myself using the same logic of just paying £100 more.

Defo dont use anywhere near that and I have loads of crap apps on that I dont even use, still havent even got round to putting loads of media on anyway so would definitely say 32gb or even 16 but that would be pushing it!

Not for everyone. I have the 16GB iP4 and it's quite limiting. I've had to cut down on my music because many apps take quite a lot of space these days, especially games. Real Racing alone uses over 1GB of space. I wish I bought the 32.

yup

Its important to remember than its not 16 gig, its more like 14. Same as 32 is more like 28.

Once you've loaded up 20 or more albums, apps which some of are almost a gig themselves. photos, few videos before you even start shooting your own you'll find yourself on the edge of capacity with 16gig. Ive had 5 iPhone models and 3 of them were 16 gig. On the iPhone 4 it wasn't enough. my 32gig iPhone 4S is loads better.

Good choice. I had 16GB before and it was a bit tight. 32GB is just right.

MagicBoy · 21 Dec 2011 at 00:54

Apps, no music or video - 16GB.

I've got over 20GB of music on my iPhone as it was replacing an existing iPod. The Apps total 4GB and that includes Sat Nav with European Maps.

sharingan_sasuk · 21 Dec 2011 at 01:01

I had a 16GB iPhone 4 before and I do download a lot of apps and have about 5GB of songs so sometimes I would have to delete apps to make space.

Which is why I definitely went for a 32GB this time for my iPhone 4S. Now I never have to worry about space.

The_Baron · 21 Dec 2011 at 11:02

40gb on my Touch filled so will be going for the 64gig one and maybe flogging the Touch to recoup some cash.

Vonhelmet · 21 Dec 2011 at 12:51

I have 16GB on my 3GS and it can get tight with a lot of music on there. I'd rather have 32GB. However, I can't ever imagine a need for 64GB and the price for 64GB is ludicrous.

Morfik · 21 Dec 2011 at 12:53

Used to have a 16Gb iPhone 3G but I struggled to keep to the limit once I started putting videos, photos and music on there. Without all that though 16GB would be fine. Went for 32GB with the iPhone 4 and found it much more suitable.
