iPhone 6 sytem storage
Discussion
Morning all, my phone contract is due to be upgraded tomorrow as I have now reached the end of my term with it. I have been offered an iPhone 6 16GB for £29 a month, or a 5S 16GB for £25 a month. Both seem pretty reasonable, and I am leaning towards the 6 at the moment.
However I have been informed by a friend that the file size of the software is 6GB which leaves you with only 10GB of usable storage on the phone which seems pretty hopeless especially seeing as they don't have a memory card slot.
Would someone with either a 6 or 5S be able to confirm if this is the case or not? And while we are at it, are you happy with your choice of phone?
Cheers

Hmm, that's disappointing. What about the system storage? Does that really take up 6GB?
To be honest I mainly use it for internet use and music, not many apps besides that. My current HTC One is 15GB full and that's all I seem to need.
Annoyingly the only android phone I like the look of is that Sony Z3 Compact thing and it appears to have some build quality issues. The Samsung's are huge and I won't buy another HTC.

Thanks for the info, glad to hear the Z3 is working out. From what I have read (taken with a pinch of salt of course) the glass on the back / front can crack and the plastic covers over the charging port can break. A few reports of dead pixels too.
I am pretty much off the idea of a 6, looks too big. Will basically come down to wheither I can get a better deal on the Z3C or a 5S 32GB!
Last thing I want is to be stuck with a phone for 2 years and be plagued with memory issues.
