I was going to get the S4 (as my very 1st smartphone BTW) but didn`t want the 16G version. So I waited until the carrier I had chosen offered the 32 gig version...it never came, and now the S5 is here and the same damn problem exists.
I guess I`ll have to forego the 32 and just get the damn 16 and buy an SD card.
