Hi peeps

I am looking to get the iphone 4 when available again in apple store.

I am debating to get the 16GB or the 32GB version!

I already have 6GB of music on PC which i will be putting on the iphone.

However I won't be storing 100's pictures/video on the iphone.

I am very keen on the Apps though as i already downloaded about 50 apps...and probably more

SO....... which one would you guys recommend to get? As it is an extra £100 to get the 32GB that i might not end up using!

any advice would be appreaciated!
Cheers

well i have the 16 gb 3GS and this is quite good for me and also there is a option to convert higher bitrate songs to 128kb aac files so they take up less space as this is a a smaller file than 128kb mp3's

I have a 16gb iphone 3g. I have 80gb of music on my hard-drive, but find it not too much of an inconvenience to take stuff off and replace it whenever I feel like it.
Unless you're going away for long periods and feel you absolutely MUST have your entire collection with you, go for the 16 gig. I currently have about 80 apps and they take up around 1.5gb (one of those is a games package taking up 256 meg, by far the largest) so the apps don't take up too much room.

I got the 32GB iPhone4 and have already half filled it with songs so glad I did.

Also HD recordings take up alot of room if you plan to use that feature and things like GPS apps take up over 1GB.

It really depends on the person.

When I upgrade I will get the 32GB version for sure. I have a 16GB 3G and I filed that up really easily. Now I have to keep deleting things to make best use of the space I have.

I guess if you store loads of pictures/videos then thats different.. I won't be storing many as i will be transferring them to PC

Most of mine is taken up with music about 9GB and then I have a few gigs of videos and the rest is taken up with apps and pics. I would love to put a lot more videos on there though as I like to download TV shows and movies on itunes and watch them on my phone.

But if you just want it for music then I think you should be ok with 16 GB. It's just a shame that it doesnt have an expandable memory so you wouldnt have to decide when you buy it.

32gb is probably a luxury. But I went for it anyway, as I was always finding it full when I had 16gb. Of course you could be more selective about what you sync across and make do with 16gb.
