I have an 8gb iPhone 4 but only 6gb in storage?
On the box it says 8GB but when I look on the settings it says 6 GB. My brother and I share the same plan. And my mom told me that we have 6GB to share. So I have 3 and he has 3GB. I'm confused because I'm using more storage than him. Mine says I have 5.4 GB left but my brothers says he has 5.7 GB left? Do we have 8GB on the phone plus the 6GB or do we both have to share 3GB? By the way we use AT&T.
When apple installs ios on it, it takes up tons of space. That's a way they get you. They say 8GB, but with the operating system it really only has around 6.
- Why have I paid for 8gb but only got 6? I've recently bought an iPhone 4 with 8gb but when I synced it on iTunes it says I only actually have 6gb. This is with "other" which I know how to reduce. Also on my iPhone itself on settings it says I only have 6gb. This memory is very valuable because I only have 8gb and if I'm honest I think I should have bought at least 16gb. Can you help me by answering with an easy answer baring in mind I'm only 15 and you'll probably confuse me?
- Why does my Iphone 4 only have 6.3 GB of storage when it's supposed to have 8GB? I looked in the "usage" section and it says that I have: 4.6 GB used and 1.7 GB available Shouldn't I have 3.4 more GB available because I have 8gb of storage? I'm kind of confused.
- Is it worth updating to iOS 7 if I have an iphone 4 with only 8GB of memory? What I want to know is… Does it require 2.9GB of my 8GB allowance of space or does it simply require some spare room for the download and then I will still have loads of memory again after the update?
- IPhone storage full but iCloud storage not? I'm in the Navy and I'm going on deployment soon so, I'm racking up on stuff like movies and music so I won't be bored during deployment… I'm 3 seasons in on downloading stuff on Netflix and it says my storage is full… I deleted a lot of useless apps and music already and I downloaded a few more then it happened again… I see my iCloud storage is very empty but my phone storage is too full… How can I fix this.
