How would you manage your 16gb?

OK all of us have been fallowing this phone skipping other great phones(Rezound,Razr)and then bam we are hit with official news saying 16gb of storage.Now we need to ask our self's is this phone worth it? if the razr or rezound had 16gb of internal memory we would all point and laugh.There has been no official price but we are all assuming $299.99 ON A TWO YEAR CONTRACT wtf! I have posted that i would be retard for paying that but i just found out im getting lots of credit from verizon and other discounts so i will be getting this phone for $150.00 so im going to deal with the 16gb

So with all that said if you are still getting this how are you going to manage your 16gb?

this is what im going to do

1.Netflix no more videos saved to SD

2.Cloud for Music

3.? not sure what im going to do with my PS1 games there like a gig each play one game at a time.also PS1 app may not work at launch darn menu button.
 
No idea what I would do! Not really going to worry about it until the Nexus comes out and I truley have to make a decision. I REALLY want this phone but things are starting to rub me the wrong way! Makes me sad because I have been sitting on an up grade for ~ 10 months because nothing has peaked my interest until the Nexus! I was hoping to pass my TBolt on to my daughter and snatch up the Nexus but now I am debating on grabbing her a cheaper phone and hold out until next year! I am all twisted right now!

Not getting this phone. Just got a RAZR. But I'd suggest people look at Dropbox -- up to 10 GBs of free cloud storage (with many useful features that have nothing to do with phones per se -- synching files across multiple computers, etc.).
 
I have a 160GB iPod for music, plus 20,000 songs in Google's Cloud - with 4G the need to store videos is a thing of the past, 16 or 32GB - I am ready :)
 
Well looks like I'll be using clounds as well as a mini USB dongle if that proves to work. Still getting this phone no matter what. I've been waiting to long not to.

I wouldn't, 16 gigs with no sd card is a deal breaker for sure.

Yes there is cloud based options but I wouldn't want to rely on it.

That is simply not enough room.

That's kind of frustrating to hear as I've been sitting on a relatively weak music collection but planned to make quite a few purchases when I get a new phone to have a wide variety for all the driving I do lately (so don't want to rely on streaming) so having only 16gb for music AND all the other stuff on the phone would be tight.
 
Sad part is, if the 16gb is true, you are going to be totally dependent on an internet connection. Say what you want but that just blows. Not to mention anyone on a tiered plan that's not even an option. Hell I usually have a gig worth of roms on card for when I feel like a new phone. Test driving the Rezound and if I like it, that's going to be my new phone. I just want the speculation and rumors to end so I can make up my mind already lol.
 
Well I was trying to hold out, but I couldn't justify the wait considering the good reviews the Rezound got. Plus I was able to play with it already in store.

I am now happy i got the Rezound, especially if I new hear old 16 gigs of memory. Even my Droid 1 had more. I understand there is the google cloud, but people shouldn't be forced into it by google limiting memory. Pretty sad considering the cost of a decent 16-32 gig card these days. As long as I can keep my Rezound from wasting away on its battery too quick, I'll know I made the right decision.
 
Yeah I feel you...I almost feel bad saying it but I'm considering going with a 4s. A lot of friends and family have them, so FaceTime / iMessage would be handy, iTunes integration for music would be nice, and my girlfriends iPhone 4 is very smooth and the apps mostly seem much nicer than android. But man would I miss playing with custom ROMs and all the other customization android offers! Such tough decisions for a phone lol, feel so geeky :)

That's not a bad option either. Flash was a major selling point for the android and now that its gone.. More of a level playing field for my choices. 16gb only and they can keep it. There is going to be a lot of people complaining about no space next year. I hate to have to go with HTC but options are limited. Rezound or iPhone. Great season? Sad choices for me...

I can manage the 16gb and probably will but it's going to drive me away from this phone I know it. I live in NE PA there's very little 4g but decent 3g. A lot of valleys and buildings here where service sucks or is non existent and that's why I am so against cloud only storage. Clouds are awesome for backup just not for primary storage. I'll be using zumocast more than any cloud service.
