Apple Faces Class Action Lawsuit For Shrinking Storage Space In iOS 8

An anonymous reader notes that Apple is being sued over claims that iOS 8 uses too much storage space on the company's devices. "Ever wonder why there never is enough space on your iPhone or iPad? A lawsuit filed this week against Apple Inc. alleges that upgrades to the iOS 8 operating system are to blame, and that the company has misled customers about it. In the legal complaint filed in California, Miami residents Paul Orshan and Christopher Endara accuse Apple of "storage capacity misrepresentations and omissions" relating to Apple's 8 GB and 16GB iPhones, iPads and iPods. Orshan has two iPhone 5 and two iPads while Endara had purchased an iPhone 6. They contend the upgrades to the operating system end up taking up as much as 23 percent of the storage space on their devices."

My iMac has 8GB of memory, and 4 TB of storage.
My iPad has 1 GB of memory and 16 GB of storage

Apple doesn't sell laptops with more than 16 GB of memory.

And Apple doesn't sell iPhones with 4TB of "storage". But you know exactly what I'm talking about, so why be a pedant about it and avoid an intelligent response?

In any case, these two people are simply shills for these lawyers, who will be the only people making any money off this.

As for me? I'm quite happy with my iPhone, but to each, their own...
