Ohh ok so how does that actually work? it provides me with more space?

Sorry, i don't really know and btw do you know any cheap contracts i can get on that phone?


It should do but it is entirely up to you. And I just had a look and couldn't find any. Have you considered a SIM only contract?

They can work out cheaper than getting an actual contract and a phone together and can be flexible and better deals.

Cool.
Hi,

I would really avoid going for a device with 8GB internal storage. That will fill up very quickly if you intend on putting lots of apps on there. Go for something that has at least 16GB, plus an SD slot if you want lots of media (pictures/music/videos) on your phone.

Further, you don't know how the device can be partitioned. My VS Touchtab tablet was advertized as 8GB storage, but once you've dealt with pre installed apps and the OS, I was down to about 6GB. Weirdly, this was partitioned into two segments, a 5.3GB segment and a 0.98GB segment. Guess where all of the apps wanted to install themselves! (Note: A lot of apps won't install on an SD card, which I later bought, but still didn't fix my issue.)

My phone (Samsung Galaxy S4) is 16GB and also has a 16GB SD card, and that is fine for me.

I am going to be replacing my VS Touchtab with a Samsung Galaxy Tab A (hopefully) and that has 16GB storage plus an SD slot for my 16GB SD card.

:colone:
atm i have an 16gb phone and it's definitely not enough :redface: although i do download lots of music and apps... i have 500 songs and have about 22 apps too (including pre-installed apps), plus i do take lots of photos and have to download them on my computer... even doing that it has filled up too quickly, as i only got my current phone back in august last year and it already filled up in december :frown: so if you want to download music/games definitely get at least 32gb unless you can get sd card

Depends on the if you save high quality porn videos on your phone. If you want loads of videos then only save 240 pp vids
