Are you sure about that? I'm still on Gingerbread 2.3.4 and it works but if the current releases don't allow it anymore I wouldn't buy anything with less than 64GB internal storage.

GB still can. I think from ICS or JB onwards no le. Probably it's JB cos after that their Nexus line all no microSD. It's hard to say cos it's open source sia, anyone can do any **** to it as long as they don't change it radically e.g like Samsung now. Anyway when you buy phone you'll know prior the specs if it has microSD slots.

What kind and how many apps you planning to install sia 16GB confirm not enough for Samsung cos of their bloatware cos my Galaxy S2 now is suffering from it and it's 16GB so i think progressively you can buy bigger int. storage phone ba. 32GB should be safe since my N7 is 32GB and it's still loads of free space despite installing a lot of apps :p. Think around 150apps including around 20 games.

Well, a few games are as big as PSP games, about 1.5GB so the storage fills up very quickly. My iPhone 5 32GB is definitely to small, I have to delete apps constantly. :vijayadmin:

Are you sure Samsung doesn't allow to outsource apps to the microSD card anymore? That would be a bummer for me...

Can't confirmed but their S4 has allowed some apps that are movable to be moved to microSD so you are still safe for now, not sure if Note 3 allow or not though since it's 32GB. You do know the reason right? Cos some apps won't work/work properly if it's move to microSD.

From what i remember, even Note 2 no midnight launch, maybe stupid one Q from midnight onwards but that's about it.

So means if I wanna get it on launch day I can't take 7am flight liao la. Was still hoping there'd be midnight launch so I could still take the morn flight...

Samsung Galaxy Note 2 - Moving Apps to External MicroSD Card - Android Forums at AndroidCentral.com

The Galaxy Note 3 still has the 'Move to SD card' option. Of course, not all apps are allowed to do that; in those cases, the option will just be grayed out.

Thanks, that's the answer I was looking for. Sounds like nothing has changed in regards to that since Gingerbread as it seems.

Haha I see, no choice Google wanna push the usage of their Google Drive that's why they trying to remove the MicroSD function, but well we are good to hear that Samsung are listening to people and giving 32GB model, more than enough for me :D

Even the S3 and S4 have been available with 32GB and 64GB already, just not in Singapore. ;)
