T-Mobile offered to swap out my $240 LG Optimus F3 for the $400 16GB Nexus 5, with me paying the $160 difference. UPDATE: As you know, the "issue" is that the manufacturers/carriers "imply" that the primary memory is augmentable, when it's actually *not* augmentable with the addition of an sd card: https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7364/...2f3b390c_b.jpg So, I took up the carrier on their offer to buy a replacement phone, with full value being given for the original phone: https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2825/...849b4ff3_h.jpg After I swapped out the $200 0MB LG Optimus F3 for the $400 12GB LG/Google Nexus 5, here are the 100 apps (shown on the left) which took up the first 4GB of primary memory: https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2866/...05818cf3_h.jpg Below are the 60 or so apps which can be considered "typical" for many users, and which take up at least 2GB of additional primary memory on this brand-new Android phone.
