Q: how much does the 16gb ipad can hold

16 gbs

16 GB. 

Hi,

If you are thinking it may not be quite enough for your needs...

Then consider the 32 GB... It's not that much more...

Just my opinion...

Cheers, 

Your average movie is 1-2 gig

Average song, 3-4 megs

Average ebook no more than a meg or two

Average app a few megs to a couple hundred. All depends on how complex it is.

If you plan to use a few aps, have a little music (few albums), a movie or two, you should be okay. If you like to put stufff on it and just leave it there 'in case' and you have the extra 100 dollars, go for the 32 gig.

I have a 16 gigabyte iPad 2 and have 11 tv shows, 20 songs, and 55 apps several of which take over 1 gb of space and have a little less than 500 mb. So I think that if you don't mind leaving a couple apps and tv shows off, 16 gb should be enough but if you have the money, go for 32 gb.

When new, a 16GB iPad only has about 13.7Gb of additional space.

16GB vs 32GB vs 64GB: Which new iPad storage capacity should you get?
