Bought my 2nd gs3 and it has 12gb of storage and not 16. Should i return?

No.. that's how much they all have out of 16GB that you can use.
Sent from my SGH-T999
It's formatted to be less, and about 1-2 GB is reserved for the system.
But phone says total storage is 12. Kinda dumb

Because the total storage you can use is 12GB. If you want to see 16GB somewhere go look at the box.

San disk is just fine. You can get one on amazon for under 20. If you do a lot of podcasting I would suggest getting the apps2sd hack in development.

san disk is fine. dont even bother with the premium lines, as they are more geared towards cameras. Also I read a few reviews on them in regards to using them for android phones (sgs3 was part of test) and they stated they saw no real optimal improvement compared to the average black san disk micro sds you can buy..
Find one on ebay, preferably in the US and not China, Ive seen 32gb go for like $12 free shipping, sometimes cheaper!

So only 16 gig for US. Are you also in the Verizon forums? Seems like I may have seen you in the 7.7 group. Anyways thanks for the reply.

At that rate, you might as well wait for the Note III. It's technology, a few months after you buy it, something newer and cooler is out. There's already rumor threads forming about a new Exynos 5 phone.
But yeah, more expandable memory is better. Especially if you want to keep FLAC files on your phone.
But still can't install apps on the cards and these games are now larger than 2 gig.

Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
well the ROM is about 835MB
that and 16GB is 16 x 1024MB = 16,384MB,
however they are using 1000MB in a GB when they rate these so they are saying 16,000MB which is actually 15.265GB minus the 865MB for the ROM, down to about 14GB available.
Disk manufactures measure Kb as 10^3 vs the way computers measure Kb as 2^10. As you can see, 1000 <> 1024 so you have a discrepency. Also, the formatting has some overhead.
