“Considering 32 gb, help please! I am considering the purchase of a 32gb Galaxy Note 5, but don't really know how much it would store. How many gb are used for the operating system? I plan to use the phone for music, apps and maybe some photos that I might transfer to my laptop. Thanks”

This is about the worst place to save money on the new series of Galaxy S5/6 and Note 4/5 phones as you cannot expand the storage any longer. Compounded with this is the fact that the camera on the S6 and Note5 are 15MP (4K UHD resolution) resulting in each picture taking 3-7MB each. Just get the 64GB version and save yourself a lot of frustration going forward. Also, if you don't have it yet, setup free Google Drive storage since that'll give you 15GB of cloud storage for pictures and such.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I am running the 32GB model with about 60% free memory. I run a *ton* of apps, but don't keep a lot of music, photos, or videos on my phone. It stinks that Samsung took the removable SD card option away, so I understand your dilemma! I would hazard a guess, however, and suggest that even with a fair amount of music and photos, you should be fine with 32GB as long as you don't store a bunch of download movies on your phone. Periodically run a junk file cleaner such as Avast Cleanup and you will be fine.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.32G will store a lot and will accomplish what you looking to use the phone fore. If you feel you need more, you can always upgrade to the 64G memory card and store all of your music, pictures and other data items on the card. This will allow the other apps that makes your phone work, work much quicker and not slow down your phone. Also, you have the option of storing your music, pictures and other things in the cloud which is accessible by you. in short, 32G is more than enough with the cloud service available to you.
