Specifications? 16gb vs 32 gb.. - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5

TMobile states ONLY 16GB Internal versions being sold. They insist no information on 32Gb versions. Thought this should be corrected when looking at the specs listed here as being both 16Gb and 32Gb models. Online sources erroneously mention that if ordered online you can get a 32Gb version. Three different conversations with TMobile refute this. If anyone has more information, then please correct me on this.

Currently all US carriers are only selling 16 GB variants and no one has any information if and when the 32 GB variant will be available. I'm guessing never.

get a microsd card
sigh
Thanks -- I understand I can get an SD card... my point being is that I'd rather have a maximum of 64GB, not 48GB.

isnt that a bit extreme anyway? 16+16 will more than do for me... i already have a 16 microsd card otherwise i would be fine with just the internal storage
where is the source of this info?
or is that just your own speculation?

Clove UK notify me 32gb not available for pre order
Source of 32GB cancellation rumour
OK... poked around a bit, and everything I found on the 32GB cancellation rumour pointed back to a tweet by an Aus online mobile store:
twitter.com/MobiCity/statuses/45699067543695360#
I think the wording of this tweet puts this firmly in the 'unconfirmed' category.

Did Clove actually inform you what you mention in your opening post?
The only information I have received from CLove was dated Friday 11th March which stated:-
Dear Beards,
Unfortunately the situation regarding the Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 32GB has changed since your order was placed.
Initially, we were informed that stock of the Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 32GB would be arriving in late March, but this is no longer the case. At this stage we do not have an estimated date of arrival for the Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 32GB and as a result of this we have disabled the ability to purchase the handset on the Clove website.
Due to the change in circumstance, we have amended your order, replacing the Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 32GB with the Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 16GB. You are of course welcome to cancel the order if you would not like the Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 16GB. At this stage we are aware that the 16GB model will be available before the 32GB model.
We have now confirmed the price of the Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 16GB, it is currently priced at £440 + VAT (£528.00 inc. VAT). At the moment we are expecting the first stock to arrive at the beginning of May.
We would also like to point out that there has recently been reports of the Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 shipping with two different processor chips, the Samsung Exynos and the NVIDIA Tegra 2. At this stage we do not know which chip UK stock will ship with, although reports have suggested that it will be the Exynos chip. We will confirm these details as soon as possible.
Any updates regarding the Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 will be posted on the Clove blog, as well as the Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 16GB product page. We will do our best to keep you up to date with any further developments that do arise.
Regards

I read it here
http://ausdroid.net/2011/03/10/sams...ay-1st-32gb-model-cancelled-due-to-high-cost/
According to the leaked pictures at engadget : http://www.engadget.com/photos/three-uk-leaked-roadmap-with-galaxy-s-ii-mini/#3984951
It says 16GB onboard memory, no details on the 32GB version. So this might actually be true, although I really don't think it matters as 48GB of space is more than enough on a phone.
leaked 3UK slides
Yeah, I saw those... those slides also say stuff like:
4.4" screen
Super Amoled 2
HSDPA 14.4
1.2 Ghz processor
I'd take anything on those slides with a very heavy grain of salt.
no one has been able to confirm 32GB model cancellation.
until we have a definite word from a Samsung spoke person like SamsungJohn or some more confirmation from Clove online store, the 32GB version is still available, just will be launched later
Honestly i dont see the point to have 2 versions. More version means more cost for Samsung in the end so if i were in their place i would also re-consider.
After all 32G sd's are damn cheap now days and seriously 32+12G is pretty much space. ITs a mobile so its not meant to replace your NAS or something hehe
Dunno about you but I have 200GB of music, so the more I can load on the phone the better. I have been told by the folks in the Samsung shop here in Taiwan said the incumbent telco will get an exclusive (in Taiwan) on the 32GB and should be arriving around the last week in July. I also couldn't read, but did see the email from Chunghwa telecom marketing stating same and laying out prices for the various contracts.They also said it would be exenyos.

Their sales team is smoking pot. There's no Galaxy S II with Tegra 2 processor as well as there isn't any 32 GB Galaxy SII.

Have you missed this one: http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i9103_galaxy_z-review-614.php ?
It is called Galaxy Z though, but this is the Galaxy SII with Tegra 2 that has been rumoured for a long time.

[Q] A 64 GB internal storage SGS3?

Hey folks found this on ebay:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Samsung-...nes&hash=item2578e42ac0&_uhb=1#ht_5083wt_1279
A 64GB internal version! I thought they were cancelled or not yet released. I know one retailer pulled out of stocking them:
http://www.trustedreviews.com/news/samsung-galaxy-s3-64gb-launch-cancelled-due-to-lack-of-demand
This is only for the UK. The 64GB model is still on sale in Italy and Germany AFAIK.
Aah I see, that explains why it was at retail stage already....
I suppose the internals (apart from HDD) are the same as suggested by wikipedia so all ROMs and Kernels should work the same....? For I9300 at least...

[Q] 16GB Mega 6.3 not available in the UK?

Got my pre-order for a white 16GB Galaxy Mega cancelled this afternoon after getting a call from the seller saying that 'only the 8GB version is for UK release'. Anyone got any idea when/where I can get a 16GB version in the UK or in Europe? The 8GB version only has around 5GB usable space and it's definitely not enough for my apps specially if I can't move them to the SD card.

Umm, that seller is from Hongkong. I'm looking for UK sellers with good records so I don't get scammed. I've tried other UK sellers but it seems like they've posted items which they don't have. You can see other sellers updating their item details because they only got 8GB stock instead of 16GB.
Edit: Nevermind, found some from Kikatek UK. I hope people from the UK would reply where they got their Mega so other users can compare deals and shopping experience.

Haven't ordered yet as I'm wary of the version. I'm trying to message the seller to confirm first. There are some 16gb on Amazon UK but they might change the item description today.
Just root and use foldermount until the memory swap is available..
Not a problem..
Or maybe wait until the 16GB is available? Maybe then proper root will be available with custom ROMs too

Got mine it is 8GB not 16GB! have emailed them to see if they are getting 16GB models
Looks like at the moment any genuine uk models are all 8GB, not sure if it is worth waiting.

That sucks Are you planning to return it? How much of the 8GB is usable storage? 8GB will not do for me as the usable space would be much less for my apps.
Games I own at the moment:
NFS Most Wanted(2GB)
Dungeon Hunter 4 (1GB)
Puzzle Quest 2 (250MB)
Fieldrunners 2 (300MB)
Minion Rush (250MB)
+ other game and apps over 2GB
Some sellers from Amazon have 16GB listed but I am not sure if they're really 16GB as one seller told me that only 8GB is for UK release. I'll wait another week or two as they might get the 16GB in stock by then or I might just go for the Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 3G which only comes in 16GB and 32GB versions.

Error from ebay. The Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 LTE I9205 have only 8 GB. The I9200 have 16 GB.
See on www.pdadb.net, search for Galaxy Mega 6.3 and you see all Models.

I am waiting until Monday when they have said they will come back to me, either way i will probably keep as i only really need space for maps for navigation on internal SD (1GB). Available space is about 4.75GB.
I doubt any of the uk well known sellers will have the 16gb version anytime soon

Update us as they might have a date for the shipment of the 16GB versions. I don't mind if it's without LTE (i9200) as long as the internal memory is 16GB.

ok decided to keep, since i wanted LTE and no 16gb version currently appears to support it.
i have installed most of my apps using titanium and used foldermount to move some files to SD card.

After calling several sellers including the Samsung store, I decided to get the 8gb since everybody has no idea when or if the 16 gb will ever be sold in the UK. I got a SIM free one for 374 quid using an eBay voucher. I will do the same and use Foldermount until we get slim custom ROMs or memory swap function.
same as, got the 8gb did not fancy buying it from simply electronics to badly reviewed, comes tommorrow so time to do some custom building stuff as sold my note already lol

Hi thering, thank god you're on board building custom ROM for the Mega I've sold my Note last month and is itching to get a Mega so ordered the 8GB. You can now get the white 8GB version for £370 from eBay (e-cell) and the black one for £401 from eBuyer.

I loved the XtraliteROM for the Note and with the limited storage on the Mega a slim ROM would be great.
You can also claim the title of the longest running ROM for the Mega as well
Yeah true lol camt wait to get started tbh..
Just odd they chose 8gb and 16gb rather than the norm

From what I read, the 3g only version of the Mega 6.3 (i9200) has the 16GB version while the LTE version (i9205) is only 8GB. Maybe this is to make both versions similarly priced in Europe and North America. In Asia, the 16GB i9205 is already available as my friends from the Philippines got their Mega at the Samsung launch there last Saturday for £330.

[Q] 32GB model exists?

So I was under the impression that there was only a 16GB edition of the USA SM-G900T. However, on a certain popular auction site I see 8 sales of a supposed 32GB model since June. Is there really a 32GB model out there, or are those buyers being scammed?
I tried to get info from T-Mobile's site and couldn't find anything that talked about storage in the offered S5 at all.

128gb or 256gb Options For US Verizon Users?

Hi folks,
Long time no activity for me on XDA, but good to be back!
Been doing a lot of research on the device to replace my ancient GS5 Dev Edition and settling on the S9+. My concern is wanting a 256gb version, or at minimum, 128gb. I understand these phones are available in the UK and UAE markets and can be activated and shipped to the US easily. My issue is I am on Verizon and appears these phones don't have LTE Band 13 which is critical to have.
If international devices aren't an option, are folks aware of thoughts/plans for Samsung to offer a bigger internal storage variant in the US post-launch? I'm fine using a big SD card, but understand you can't load all apps to the SD (especially without root) and afraid 64gb will fill up quite quick with the OS and apps.
Thanks!
