How much real space does the 32 GB Google Pixel offer us?

Google

Manufacturers have the happy mania of advertising the space they offer in their models so that we can make use of it according to our needs without ever discounting the space occupied by the operating system, so we could say that no manufacturer really reports the real space of the device once Maybe we take it out of the box. I can't quite understand why the European Union, which sometimes calls into question some issues that do not affect us users in the least, does not get fully into this issue.

This year Apple has finally decided to eliminate the 16 GB model (11 GB real) offering the 32 GB model as an entry model. With these 32 GB (about 28 real GB) we can already take pictures and record videos in 4k without suffering storage problems (although with this capacity we cannot go overboard either). The new Google models, Pixel and Pixel XL, will hit the market with two capacities: 32 and 128 GB. But like all manufacturers, those 32 GB are not real, since the Android 7.1 operating system that manages the smartphone occupies 5,39 GB, becoming really a terminal that only offers us 24,3 GB of storage, since the space available on the device once formatted is actually 29,7 GB, not 32 GB.

Yes, this space It is practically the same that we can find in all the terminals that reach the market with 32 GB of fictitious storage, since real ones are little more than 24 GB. In this sense, Apple has managed to optimize the space used by its operating system much better, since in the 32 Gb model, it offers us slightly less than 28 GB of storage once we have turned on the phone for the first time and we want to start install applications, take photos, record videos in 4k quality ...
