5. The spec of Aurora II claims it has 16GB storage and 1GB RAM. How come I only see about 13GB storage and 800MB RAM available?

The way to caculate the capacity on Flash memory, TF card, U disk and hard disk is same. 1K is equal to 1024 byte; 1M is equal to 1024K while 1G is equal to 1024M. So the standard capacity should be 14.8G. Then it would take 800M to 1G for ROM space. The system of the device will also take some storage space, which is why the storage left 13G only.

Many android games and apps have different data packet, you have to make sure the apk and data packet you download is the right version. Most Chinese brand dual core architectures adopt ARM mali400MP GPU and you must choose GT-I9100 editon data packet when you download .
