Well I have an issue here.

Using my old 4S as my phone is in for service.

So my iPhone is 16gb, when bought new it had about 13gb free after OS' occupancy.

Then now that I've deleted almost everything except for some pictures and some messaging apps that I've added to are only about 3gb.

And my phone shows that I only have 1.5gb. Where have the tremendous 8.5gb went?

Checked. I calculated all the apps from there
Still missing 8gb

Out of the 3gb usage is occupied by pictures the most

My oldie ip4 also on ios7.2.1 which is the maximum. Anyway nowadays all the apps require minimum ios8 to run. So its only got the basic built-in apps and I still use it for my backup phone.

The about page shows you your max storage and other details such as storage used etc.

Lol yes.

13.4gb capacity
12.1gb used
1.3gb available

But I only used about 3gb. The rest are basically gone?
And I took just one picture, it went from 1.5gb available to 1.3gb.
I didn't know iPhone 4S had a Hasselblad quality camera.

This is my last Apple product.
