I do not think this statement is true. If we are talking about the 8GB model, then certainly the OS itself will eat about 4GB. If we are talking about the 16GB model, then... oh dear, did Samsung really eat 8GB out of the whole lot? I can't imagine the bloatware it this is true.
Come on. Please be more realistic in reporting storage space. 8GB models are really getting unbearable and manufacturers need to take serious note. After you install apps, you may only have around 1.5GB left which will soon be taken by media files sent from Whatsapp, BBM, etc. (not everyone can/will do housekeeping on their phones). I have suffered because of this, and I don't even install big games. At one point I had around <400mb free space left and some apps then refused to update - claiming lack of space.
If no one is telling them that it's not enough, we'll still get good phones with 8GB config. For example the M4 Aqua is quite good, but come on, 8GB should not be there at all. The same case for others (or I should say, Shame!!).

You're absolutely right. That was a bit too much of a shortcut there. I just assumed without really considering it was completely obviuos.
But again, you're right about how we should point it out. I've edited the text and will pay attention to this from now on :)
Cheers!
