Well, don't bother to look for "Made in Finland" and FCC&CE stamps in first evaluation devices:

* First shipped phones will be manufactured in China.
* Snapdragon 820 version of the phone will get FCC&CE approvals, evaluation version won't.
Edit: And only 128GB version will be available, 16GB and 64GB version have been scrapped according to the article.

Ensimmäisen erän puhelimet on tehty Kiinassa, mutta Chaon mukaan Kiina ei sovi kalliin turvapuhelimen valmistusmaaksi. Sen takia yritys on valinnut Salon valmistuspaikaksi.

a review full of sarcasms.
When I think back several years, I had N9 as my primary mobile device and it had 64GB of storage. (granted, the partitioning scheme was a real waste but that was easy to fix...)
That was top-of-the-line device in 2011, that's five years ago!
When you take Moore's law into account it means that the amount of top-of-the-line devices today should be around 2^(5*12/18) which comes to just under 10 times, namely 640GB!
If the top-of-the-line devices should have around half TB storage about now it stands to reason even the tiniest devices should have at least 128GB, right?
Please check my logic, it is absolutely watertight.

I have a 32GB nexus 5, and the only reason I use half that is because I have 5 ROMS running in multirom for varying reasons, otherwise its just a sliver.
It is absolutely unforgiveable that manufacturers release devices with next to no storage. It is a disgrace!

since someone added the tags here I have been called upon to follow this scam until:
Tags are removed.
This proves to be a scam.
This proves to be real.
Or whichever comes first.
You live in a age with almost unlimited storage and constant network access
don't be so bitter.

In theory you could have all your stuff on a server attached to the network 24/7 (and I do, actually) but I still like to have locally cached storage on the device. The connectivity is way too spurious and slow when you are on the move or camping in the deep woods.

Stuff that is mine and does not change - like my music collection, for example - I find hard to justify accessing from "the cloud", whatever that is.

Audio quality has not evolved much since the compact disk in the 1980's, not because we cannot, but because it wouldn't change a thing to the user.
About storage, for people that don't store videos, 16 or 32GB can fit quite well. Audio and photo files have not grown much in size in the last years, so storage for those don't need to follow a moore law growth.
For videos, it still grows a lot (especially with 4K and/or 60/120 fps modes), and for those use cases 640GB would indeed not be too much.

To further add, Moore's law applies to "the number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit" in the strict sense, and to "computing power" in the looser sense.

Actually thanks for pointing that out.
