NIFR: iPhone users

madelyn07

I had an iPhone back when they first came out and wasn't really that impressed. Now I'm due for an upgrade and my contract is tied to DH's department and now that Verizon has the iPhone, that's what I'll be getting.

DH told me to research the 16GB vs 32GB...of course everything I'm finding says the 32 is the absolute only way to go. Is it?

I'll, of course, have a few apps and all but I'll mostly just use it for calling, emailing, texting and web browsing.

I have a Blackberry Curve now (and have for had for quite some time) and really like it.

So...iPhone users, do I absoutely need the 32?

Only if you want to put photos and videos and music on it. I find 16BG gets sucked up pretty fast. My husband doesn't load his up with music. I guess, you know how big your library is. The camera takes decent res pics, and the files add up if you don't plan to move them off. There is a nice image stitch app that makes 360s.

Personally, I think that the phone is the cheap part, the service is what's expensive in the long run.

Enjoy your new phone!

I have the 16 and have not even come close to usig all te memory and i have a decent amount of music on it. Your intended use sounds about like mine so youd probably be fine with the 16

I have the 16 and think it's more than fine. I think the 32 would be too much unless you plan on always having tons of music/photos/video on it. You can always transfer stuff to your computer if need be, but I havent had to yet.

I have the 16 and I haven't had any problems with the amt of space I have. I have some music, photos and a few pgs of apps on it. I hope you like whatever you choose!

I love mine so far. I got the16 but i don't intend on having many apps or music. If you do, get the 32.

I have the 16 GB and have quite a few apps and a bunch of music. I don't keep many pics on it but I have plenty of space left.

I would get the 32GB.  I have a 16GB and can't get all of my music on it.  I have 14GB total on my iTunes.

Plus, if you get iPhone 4, it has a high resolution screen which makes reading books an option.  It is harder on the older phones since the screens are small.  

I have a 3GS and I am waiting for the new phone to come out this summer (late summer are the rumors).  We are due for upgrades this month.

Good luck.

I have the 16, have a good amount of apps and music, and over 300 pics.  I still have plenty of space.

I have the 16 and over 1000 photos and 4 pages of apps and I still have plenty of space. I don't have a lot of music on mine though.
