Well because most graphical intense games are usually about 2GB in size now which would fill up in no time it did on my S3 anyways (16gb). Oh and the note 2 comes with about 11 to 12GB of user available storage not 16GB as advertised....... I think storage is a big concern for almost everyone especially as apps are becoming more advanced and more detailed which means there going to take up more space... I didn't get a powerful phone to play angry birds on....and why include a micro-SD card slot if your limited to what you can put on it?! Makes no sense to me if I'm honest.
