How get storage capacity of wiped iPhone

I reset iPhone 5c and SE to factory specs, but forgot to note storage capacities. How do I get this info without going through the whole setup procedure?

IMAC (RETINA 5K, 27-INCH, LATE 2015), macOS High Sierra (10.13.3), Airport extreme

Look on the box of the phone. It will state what the "empty" capacity is. Empty in this case means the OS is not loaded in and nothing is on the phone.


But you will not be getting that storage reported back, because the OS is loaded onto the phone either during new setups or restored setups. The OS will take up some of that space. What's left is what you can use.


If you don't have the box, then set it up and do the math.
