It's not (only) about the storage space; it's the upload too. That time investment will get paid back over multiple deployments.

That said, now I have "good" broadband, I pay a lot less attention to the image size.

Anecdotal, but I've worn my LG Urbane every day since I got it last September. Very happy with it.
