Memory

[mikejkay]

I am aware that asking this question will demonstrate that I'm the newest of noobies but I can't stand it any longer. Will someone put me out of my misery! My Note has 2GB RAM - OK, I know about RAM. It also has 16GB of what most people call internal memory which, I understand, is memory that is "built into" the phone. I have installed a 32GB micro SD card.
Why does the settings page report 9.34GB "Total Space"? Other apps report 9.34 GB internal storage and 9.32GB external storage as well as the 32GB external SD card? The different terminologies is driving me mad.

Welcome to Android Forums. Is that Note, Note 2, or Note 3 that you are using?

OK, I know about RAM.

FYI, I suspect Android will surprise you when it comes to ram. It deals with ram much differently than Windows.

Elucidate - how?

I moved this thread to the forum dedicated to discussing this tablet.

The references to memory sections varies from device to device.
