I'm looking to buy a new phone, and I'm just wondering about internal memory on phones, and what it is used for. I currently have a phone with 1GB built in/internal memory, and I've added a 16GB memory card to it. When I add music and videos to the phone from the computer, I put them on the 16GB card... so what is internal memory for?
The only things I can thing of are: pictures/videos taken with the phones camera, contacts, sms/mms/email messages. Is that all that a phones internal memory is used for, or is there something that I'm missing?
One phone I'm looking at says:
Internal Phone Memory: 2GB
Memory Card Type: MicroSD (up to 16GB) (I know what this part is, lol).
another phone I'm looking at says:
Internal Phone Memory: 256MB
Memory Card Type: MicroSD (up to 16GB) (again, I know what this is).
So... other than the price of the phone, what benefits/drawbacks are there of have 256MB built in memory instead of 2GB built in memory?
What exactly do phones use the internal memory for, if all of my music, pictures, videos that I've put on it are stored on the memory card that I put in?
Of the things used by the built in phone memory, could I change the settings to store them on the memory card?
