WP8, Android and iOS 6 memory footprint

[Dysphoria]

Does anyone here know what is the memory footprint on each of these OSes?

I was trying to find the exact number for how much space each of these Phone OSes takes on the internal memory.

So Windows Phone 8, Android 4.1.2 and iOS6

Thanks!

From what I found WP8 takes up more than twice more space than iOS6..

That is actually difficult to say for one major reason, On Android at least the System partition is not the exact size of the data within it. Also depending on which rom it is the system files can be huge or smaller. Like CyanogenMod is only 160Mb for my phone however, the stock TouchWiz is over 1Gb in size.

That is interesting.

I am more interested in the stock installation though. The way the store sells it, without any mods.

Like i was saying each Rom is different, For instance like stated the Stock rom for the GS3 is over 1GB in size however, the stock rom for say the Thunderbolt is only 400MB, each manufacturer is different due to what all they put into it. Sadly its different on every single phone.

I see.... How about the WP8? I assume that they all come with same installation, since MS have a larger control over it's OS, just as Apple...

Looks like the Windows Phone 8 Rom (at least on the Lumia 822) is 382Mb in size.
