The waiting is killing me? Anyone have contacts on this inside of ATT?
The links I have been following have dried up. Disappointing to say the least. Will not buy the 16gb model. The new LG has my attn atm--not quite the S4, but more than satisfactory for my needs. It may cost Samsung sales.
I wanna know the same thing
IM DYING HERE! so over my apple iphone, its sickening me!
It's a huge BS blame game. AT&T's people claim that Samsung isn't providing the 32GB yet and Samsung claims AT&T hasn't asked for it yet. Of course, there are no "official" releases from either yet, just Twitter, Facebook, and forum replies from people that claim to know. It seams as though AT&T is the only US carrier that said they would carry the 32GB but only "soon" has been hinted as to when. And no one (AND I MEAN NO ONE) at AT&T is willing to talk about it. I'm sure it's like all of the rest of AT&T's screw-ups, they hope it will go away if enough time goes by and people will forget about it.
I work for an indirect third party, in our system they've already been shipped. We're getting them on the 5th. But not allowed to sell until the 19th.

I hope this is true & hopefully AT&T doesn't have an exclusive on the 32gb models but I read that AT&T does have an exclusive on 64gb though.

Take this for what it is worth, but a rep told yesterday that 32gb model had been postponed indefinitely. She did not know why, but I told I would not buy a 16gb model with only half available for storage. So looking at the optimus G Pro now...

As 24 year retired military myself--checked your bio--I am taking your word for it--
However, as indirect third, does that mean you may get them and att stores may not?
I don't trust any in-store rep. They have their own agenda--
Don't disappoint me--
My one son wants the s4 to pair with new game controller coming out for it. But, I may go LG if they don't show soon.
Anyway, thanks for tip--

WHY must you ALL need more than 16GB of storage..... Samsung devices have freaking SD Card slots, and in which you can stick a 64GB card in or even a 128GB if you can afford it....

Because apps cant install to SD card simple as that. This is a bs Google move so what good does an sd card give me if my apps can't use it and with games being 2gb in size now it goes away quick. I have a 64gb card and only few apps installed and I am down to 6gb free space and my SD card hasn't been touched. Piss poor programming by Google by doing this with the OS.

I agree. Even though I went ahead and got a 16 gb, I think its BS that google changed that. Does anyone know why exactly?
I really wish these carriers would pull their heads out of their a** and start being able to offer multiple storage sizes. Even with an SD slot, they can release the fruit phone with multiple choices, why can't we have that same luxury with samsung?
Just my 2 cents.
This is why these android manufacturers can't compete with iPhone. The reason Google did this is for greed. They want you to store all your stuff on their servers so they can mine it for data and deliver you targeted ads. This is their sole business and money maker. Why do you think they made android free in first place.

My dad was sad when I chose the Navy over the Air Force. He's retired AF.
As an indirect we have almost the same phones as AT&T, we use the same system they use. Just we charge less for the phone. We have the S4 for 149.99. The htc one for 149.99 and the 32gb one for 189.99. The s4 32gb is 189.99 as well when we start to sell it.
The indirect I work for, we don't pad or hop the accounts were not paid on the phone or activation the same way as most third parties . I also used to work for AT&T.

To me this day in age, I stream nearly everything. I use spotify for music and even with several roms and others things saved on my internal SD, instill usually have 6+ GB available out of 16 so I don't find a need for 31 personally.

This is why. And reality is. Everyone wanting all this storage is a minority. Average users. (And yes after the success of the s3 Samsung is totally in the business of average users.) Don't need a lot of space. I never filled my 8 GB n4.

There not defective. The 32gb S3 has been out for about 6 months which is average for a smartphone life span. It could also be that the 32gb version is not selling as good as the 16gb version. Who knows!!

We'll at least they didn't drop it to a penny one week after I paid retail. That would really hurt my feelings. Not sure where they going with this "bigger is not better" path they are taking. I didn't like the DNA as it didn't have an SD Card slot and worried about having only 16GB with this new internal SD card scheme. Loved the Razr Maxx HD but it only had 1GB RAM.
Love my S3 now that I am getting used to it other than it being slipperier than a bar of soap. Finally got it into a Seidio Convert but it might be overkill.
Maybe because the s4 is coming and orally also because the 16gb sells more

It's almost certainly because it wasn't selling as well as the 16 gig version. Most people wouldn't pay the extra hundred dollars when you can get a 64gb sdcard for $40.

Yes, but you can't put apps on external SD's anymore (yes with iffy apps and hacks) plus I'm guessing the internal memory is faster.
Ya, I JUST purchased a Verizon S3 32gb/Pebble blue because I have the Note 2 but I wanted something a tad smaller that I knew had GREAT development! The 32gb model is def where it's at!! :good: That gives you ample space to actually install huge games AND all of your favorite apps... I got it for a cool $325 off contract! I installed a few of the latest roms and they are VERY smooth compared to when I had it 5 months ago. I guaranty they were barely selling them...
The 32GB version probably wasn't selling as well because non Verizon stores didn't stock it. Not all verizon stores stocked it. People don't like to wait.

I have the 32GB pebble blue, so glad I got mine when I did ! For the $50 extra it was worth it.
Its not available in the stores,but it is available online to order. I am actually ordering one to replace my GN2 I sold. Verizon retail tole me it doesn't sell as well, but I don't buy that. $50 for twice the memory compared to Apple who charges $100+ for each memory upgrade option.
BTW, Best Buy doesn't stock the 32GB either but Amazon Wireless does.
got my 32gig pebble on preorder thru BBuy last july - thought it was kinda dumb to even offer a 16 gig model... who the carp wants less??? I'm sure the 16 giger only existed to offer the $199 price point they thought they needed.

This makes me feel good about GS4 purchase about 6 months after release... I can certainly pay $400 or less for it to keep my unlimited data
ugh..
Hmm.. that's weird. I hope it is not because of the S4. I don't want to see the awesome development for our phones slowly start to disappear...
I put up the extra fifty bucks for it and had to have it ordered because no stores had it in stock. Fine, no biggie to wait 3 days for double the internal memory.
Also went and dropped a 64 gig microsd in it - If I could have got a 64 gig internal version I still would have put a 64 external.
It doesn't matter how much space is available, I always need more.
You ever seen how much space a dev project takes up?
When I bought my S3 from the Verizon store I was told that the 32gb version was just a 16gb model with a 16gb sdcard installed. Obviously I just bought the 16gb model and threw in my old sdcard. Is there actually a 32gb internal storage version?

So I can pre-order at the actual AT&T store? Not online? Or both? And will pre order get me the phone faster than waiting for the store release? These are the questions I had.... I am on a spread out family share plan where we live in different areas of the country, will it be shipped to the main account holder address, or can I put my own address in for the pre-sale? I need an AT&T rep to answer these I think...
Im gonna call at&t tomorrow to confirm.
call att
ask them
I will be either going into a store to get it once available. I remember when the S2 came out I was able to get it the day after release but quite a few that pre ordered it didn't get it until a week after I got mine (or close to that at least). But I will be going in to check it out in person as soon as the stores have them.

Why on Earth would you pay $50 for 16 gb of additional space?
16 gb of space is currently going for $15 on Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-MicroSDHC-Memory-Adapter-SDSDQU-032G-AFFP-A/dp/B009QZH7BU). If you feel the need to spend the $50, then get the 64 gb card for $54.

So dig this, I had some questions that I posted towards the beginning of this thread about pre-order and nobody seemed to have any valuable response, so I just happened to be next door to an AT&T corp store just now getting coffe and I popped in and asked... here are my answers from the clerk that talked to her manager.
-Yes, presale begins tomorrow (duh)
-Yes, pricing is $200 and $250
-You can pre-order as soon as your store opens tomorroe (4-16)
-Yo can have it shipped to any address once pre-ordered
Here is the odd part of her responses.....
-As far as how soon I would be getting said S4 if I preorder tomorrow, she initially said it would ship in 3 to 5 working days... I thought GREAT, I am days away from having my new toy in the palm of my sweaty arizona hand...
Then the stab in the gut came, she dissapeared to the back for a moment to confirm this info and spoke to her manager, who coached her that she was wrong to quote me 3 to 5 working days. She proceded to inform me (according to her manager) the phone would ship the day it is released in the store in May.... My heart dropped and I said "May?" and she said "Well we don't know or can't say when it is being released yet..." So I said, "Well why did you say may then?" she said "well, whenever it does come out..." as if she slipped and was not supposed to disclose that...That was the end of the conversation.
I wanted to ask her "well what the hell is the point of pre-order then if It does not even ship until the day it releases in store?" but I didn't have the nerve and I guess I was hoping this was all a bad dream lol.....
So heres to hoping her and her manager were completly wrong or were just trying to be vague....
This guy here is on pins and needles waiting for his S4 and ready to give my trusty Infuse 4G a viking funeral

Well I sold off an iPad mini 64GB LTE that I got through a rewards program, thought I could live with it, but the screen is, well CRAP. So I sold it and those funds will pay for my GN10.1 tablet.
I have been holding out for a new phone for a while, okay a few weeks since I returned my GS4 (still have funds in the GS4 bounty to help others out) and as for the GG, yeah its a novelty, a pricey one at that, but I have 14 days to play with it and if I don't like it I return it to Verizon and get a full refund, no harm, no foul, no issues.
BUT, if I do like it I got it and off to the races I go.

It's funny that no one mentioned apps2sd during their reviews, but then again no one ever mentions usable storage space either, go figure and they call themselves reviewers.
I do suspect apps2sd will be on the GN3, its on the GS4 and that will only serve to add value and benefits for Samsung. I just wish it could move app data as well for the large games.
I'm looking for the international version (off contract) anyone know where to find this on the 25th? I'm guessing amazon will have sellers up???

Not a super fan of best bu y but the final price that I pay will be the same as Att sells it for or amazon. 799 is just the estimate. Card gets charged when I pick up phone.

I'm agreeing with droidlife and that there is no solid rumor of a 2 battery version. Unless it was going to go through the FCC in the past 2 weeks and now it can't. There could be 2 storage versions but who knows.

No I don't think there will be a 16gb version. It'll be 32gb as the base.

What makes you think that? The FCC documents, as well as the leaked service manual have both mentioned 16gb.

In that case, I'll take back my word. That just sucks.
My 3 years old Vibrant have 16gb for godsakes (not to mention the microSD slot).

I don't really see why people need more than 16GB, I have a 32GB sd card in my phone and I haven't put anything on it.
don't see the need for more than 16 GB either...esp with otg cable...
but I would pay extra for a bigger battery if that rumor is true

Nexus 4 didn't have OTG support (without custom kernel and external power, which defeats the purpose). I'm still waiting for confirmation for the Nexus 5. OTG drains alot of battery and not the most convenient either, but it is one of the key feature I'm looking for.
The Nexus 4 launch was a failure because Google didn't expect this much demand from the Nexus 4, but Google has learned their lesson and has told LG to make a lot more Nexus 5s for the launch than last years Nexus 4.

I have a 64 gig sd card with 15 gigs left and 16 internal gigs on phone. Hd videos ,hd games take a lot of space plus if you have a little one you tend to take alot of pictures. 16 internal with no sd slot for most people won't cut it. I could fill that up in a weekend.

It really bothers me when people try to make this argument...it's so self-centered, and besides, it's a fallacy. Your argument is this: Because you won't fill up 16gb of storage, it must be true that no one can have any possible reason to fill up 16gb of storage.
Everyone's usage patterns are different. Here's some logic that's not a fallacy: Because there are many people hoping and asking for a 32gb or 64gb option, it must be true that many people need more than 16gb.
Now, here's the part that really angers me. Why don't they just offer the user a choice? 16gb for $299, 32gb for $349, 64gb for $429. How hard can that really be?

I think the reason is that they don't want you to have that storage, they don't think you need it. With the cloud and all that jazz.

You're right, and that makes me mad too. Do they think we all have unlimited data? I certainly don't. Besides, there are plenty of places I go where I don't have the best signal...I'm not going to be watching movies on my phone in my house, or in the middle of the city! I'm going to do it when I'm on a road trip, or on an airplane, when streaming is not an option. Not to mention storing nandroid backups, where cloud storage is never an option.

That was by far the ****tiest launch of a phone, and lets hope Google makes sure they have enough to go around for a bit longer than 20 mins.

I was at best but checking out the note 5 and I saw this. I'm really not buying this now. They are pretty much forcing you to buy the 64gb version for $80 more dollars. 11gb free GTFO!
how many times are you going to post the same thread? This isnt a true Tmo device as this was from best buy which is said to take up more storage space than one that you would buy from TMO. This thread should be deleted.

Here you go. I've had mine since this morning. Although I purchased the 64GB version, roughly 11GB is being used including bloat ware. You can relax now.
I have the 32 with 113 apps installed and I have 21 gigs left

20gb free after installing 80+ apps and syncing all my email accounts.
I keep seeing your post everywhere, it is sensationalist garbage.

Meh I have a gs6 and don't really miss the storage - i can always use otg to compensate if need be
150 apps, 32GB version......
Pointless thread...
Everyone is going to have to get use to the idea of no SD card... really, unless you save everything, delete nothing, store all your music on your phone, never delete pictures and take 10 minute videos in 4K frequently... 32GB with cloud services is plenty.... I was going to buy the 64GB but really thought about it and glad I did not. Paying for the 64GB is like asking samsung to kick you in the privates and take your money at the same time, 128gb even more so. $200+ premium for memory that only cost maybe $15 to $25 in real life is just dumb... Apple pulls the same crap too... Yes, it takes a little more management of your device but honestly well worth it to save $100 to $200... plus with unlimited high speed data with TMO and the fact that it's my Jump On Demand Device that I will probably get rid of in a few months... just not worth it.
:good:
Would it be a nice bonus if it did, yes... it also be nice if it went to work for me, cooked my dinner and washed my car... however, i live with the fact that it can't do those things for me, so too I live with it not having SD Slot....
21gb free on my 32gb Note 5, with plenty of apps installed.
Just finished setting mine up.

Theres mine with about 120 apps installed. Though I wanted the 64 gig, it wasn't avail in store and after having a 64gig Nexus 6 and not using half of it, I decided to save some money. I have unlimited LTE on TMobile so cloud usage for me is just fine.
Op, you know those phones at stores have a crap load of demo software on them, right?

I do now thanks for everyone who posted. Even though most have a lot of apps installed, it's the videos and photos that will eat up the memory.

No, you are wrong. You don't have to get USE to it. Stand up tell Samsung to **** off by not upgrading to this POS and email them about it.

Then dont buy it. i for one am happy with my Note 5, thank you samsung especially for the 4gb of memory now!!
Now that I got the crick out of my neck from that sideways picture, you also need to note (pun totally intended) that there has been ~5GB of files added to the phone. I had 51GB free on my 64GB Note 5, and still have 20-some after copying my music over.
