Just been looking at Note 4 in local o2 shop.
I though someone had said Samsung has cut down on crapware. There is chuffing tons of it there- pure total crapware.
I looked at Storage folder and it came up with 11.36 GB needed to run phone- 17+ GB spare
That's nigh on 3 times what my pc needs to run Win 8.1.
WHY doesn't samsung LISTEN ??????? I have sent a good few emails to samsung about this. What do they do, they bring out a great device totally spoiled by unnecessary crud.
And out of 3GB ram, there was 1.29 GB left spare
:banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
 
It's a productivity device of course it will come pre loaded just like my asus windows laptop is full of asus ware.
It's their differentiator.
Can always root. It's not bothered me on the previous notes but my tab s is a lag monster.
Wait for the nexus 6 if you crave clean.
I use a lot of it so no issues here....Note wise at least

My Note 4 came with 25GB. Sounds to me like you were looking at a heavily branded phone. As I type this I have 21GB internal left as I have loaded some media.
 
Yes- you maybe right about heavily branded phone--it was in demo mode in the shop. I will check with Mike, the o2 Guru tomorrow or Sat, and ask him about it. He had only just finished setting it up working before I went in the shop, so he had no time to look at it properly.:)
 
Maybe Verizon comes with 22? Heard that from a sales rep

then again in an online chat with another she clamied that the os does not count against the 32gb total
