[WP7.5] What's the maximum of space used on mobiles ?

[minimaxpower]

Hi.

I want to buy a nokia lumia 710 but they have only 8go of space disk.

What's the maximum of space used on mobiles when you synchonised to the limit ?

Hey 🙂 

I am not 100% sure however it is possible to calculate roughly. 

Assuming you are syncing at normal quality, which is 96kbps and each song is approx 4 minutes long: 

1 song = 96kbps * 240s / 8 = 2880KB = 2.8125MB

Therefore 3,333 songs = 3333 * 2.8125MB = 9374MB = 9.15GB.

Thank you for this quick answer !

Hmm as i thought 8go won't be enought and mainly because i'll have to use other app :s

Need to find a lumia with a better space disk and not too expensive x_x

If I'm being brutally honest, if you are looking for a phone to use mainly for spotify I would stay away from the lumias.

The spotify application for windows phone 7 is riddled with bugs, with no news of updates in over a year and there is currently no application for windows phone 8 on the new lumias.

You will probably be able to pick up a better phone for less and have a more functional spotify application on he android platform. Of course, if you have your heart set on a lumia, don't let me put you off! However I just feel obliged to let you know my opinion.

Oh, I didn't know that there's a lot of bugs on it. :s

Is there any chance to see a fix about this bugs on windows 7.5 ? (if i'm right lumia 800 is on windows 7.5 so it will works right?)

Too bad, I didn't know that. Now I really don't know what to do, it's been a year since I have no mp3 player, I'm going crazy !

I have Lumia 710 and I would be super surprised if an update came. The offline works fine but online the software is super buggy so if you don't want to use offline mode then I suggest not using Spotify with a WP7 phone. There is Rdio (the idea is practically identical with Spotify) for WP7 if you want that Lumia 710 which is a good phone considering the price tag imo.

Spotify for Android is best now. I used Lumia and WP, take a look at all those bugs here http://community.spotify.com/t5/Mobile-Windows-Phones-Blackberry/WP-7-5-All-Windows-Phone-bugs-in-on...
