I got the 64 GB model as the OS itself takes up ~23 GB, which wouldn’t have left a whole lot for the cache and other stuff.
The size of the display is a nice fit for me: not too large and not too big. I do have trouble with the onscreen keyboard but I have trouble with that feature everywhere. I just never got the hang of typing on a screen, is all.
No Bixby on this one. The A7 Lite is actually a pretty bare-bones unit, just has Knox. No bloatware, either. The 23 GB is for the operating system alone. They never should have made a 32 GB model of the A7 Lite due to the storage limitations.
Looks like the CPU is much weaker and includes a much weaker GPU, which would probably explain why it’s a tad slow on images. 😛
Also, browsing images tends to drain the battery life faster. Battery life isn’t bad but it does tend to have to be recharged more often when I’m using it for actual work as opposed to browsing, which is probably the result of an inefficient chipset.
That said, it’s not a bad unit at all. The issues are minor annoyances, really. It’s also really durable: I’ve dropped it a few times and the screen still shows not a scratch! Still a bit early to look for a replacement, though. Maybe in another year or two 🙂
