How much space does IOS 6 use vs IOS 5.1.1

I upgraded my iPhone 4S to IOS 6 yesterday. Today, I was telling a friend about it and she said she doesn't have enough free space to install it on her 8GB iPhone 4. This got me thinking that with all the upgrades, how much more space does IOS6 require vs IOS5.X.X. Does anyone know?
Thanks
Mike

Bit of a strange one, the file itself was 650-something MB, but when it came to install, it required me to have at least 2.5GB free space. When it was installed though, there was no change in the free space on my iphone. So, its a mystery.

How much space does iOS 6 or iOS 7 require?

On a 8 GB iphone how much space does iOS 6 or iOS 7 take up?

No one can tell you specifically, as it will vary by device and user and according to your personal data on the device etc. But, you can expect anywhere roughly around 175-195MB.

How much space does iOS takes?

Dear Apple Support Community,
I want to know how much space does the iOS takes (installed) on a default iPhone 4 for all it's versions (eg. latest iOS 3, latest iOS 4 and iOS 5).
Watching the 2011 WWDC keynote on iOS 5, you will see a handful of new functionalities being added that will take the user experience even further, which is great!
But if you have minimum technical background, you know that more features means more lines of code, and this WILL take some extra space on your device. Also, iOS is an ever-changing product distributed over the web, but the iPhones have always the same hard-fixed ammount of storage space (only changes if you buy a new device).
This is what I'm looking for:
iOS 3.5.1 -> 1,2 Gb
iOS 4.3.3 -> 2,1 Gb
iOS 5.0.0 -> 2,9 Gb
** those are fictitious values, most probably not the actual ones **
Important: I'm just curious about it, I don't find this being a big issue as 16 or 32 gb of space is pretty much. Even if the OS takes 2~3 gigs out of it, there's still plenty space for everything you need on the go.
Thank you very much!!

Something like 660MB, apparently:

How much space does MacBook Air OS and software take up?

Greetings,
I am looking to replace my aging 2008 MacBook with a new MacBook Air. I want to get the 11 inch model most likely with the 128GB of storage. I will use it mostly for email, web surfing and other light duty work.
While I don't intend to load it up with various software, I will probably put a half dozen peices of software on it, over and above the Apple software it comes with. But, no biggies like PhotoShop. My question is this:
About how much space does the Apple OS and the assorted Apple software that comes standard take up?
I cannot spend a lot and would like to avoid buying the bigger drive if possible.
Thanks.

new from box it will have 121 GB available.
I cannot spend a lot and would like to avoid buying the bigger drive if possible.
Thats a bad working premise, no computer is a data storage device. You dont need a huge SSD, just an external HD for data backups and for putting tons of big media files on.
128GB is plenty for almost everyone, IF they know very very simple rules of drive management.

But I do not have enaugh disk capacity at the moment. So I ned to order it
You donot have to perform the client copy actually . You have to just run the test, it will not consume any disk, probably some archive files will be generated

How much space does OS X Mountain Lion take?

I am considering a MacBook Air 128 GB for my next laptop, but I'm not sure if that's enough. How much space does the OS take up?

OS X Mountain Lion, without any third-party app, takes about 9 GB of hard disk. The minimum requirement is 8 GB of hard drive space, so if you have to store a lot of data, you may have to buy an external drive to store all the files you want

How much space does tiger take up & how to make it take up less

i recently read a post by someone claiming that tiger took 18.5gb on there ibook, and some one replied saying that apple claims you can install tiger in to 3gb.
: is this true?
: if so, how do you "compress" it?
: iff not so, how much space does it take up on avarage?

hi Axl....
I've got tiger in ok, running fine - bought family pack and have done 3 installs without problem, so that's the good news ....
I did a major reshuffle and toss-out of files before I installed - bought 80gb mobile external hard drive - and did install with 5+gb free, so after it had about 3gb free, then all of a sudden I went down to less than 1gb
I've been in a hunt for more files to throw out (a nice find were the old ipod updaters that were eating 500mb) ....
If I want to throw out most of the language files (for instance) ... where are they ? (I did search for danois and found nothing, so .... buried ?)
any other suggestions for things to throw away .... I've pretty much eliminated 90% of all things classic, for instance ....
and - do you have ideas for why space seems to disappear so fast .... I'm not doing anything special, but wham, 2gb flies away to ???
thanks

PROBLEMS WITH HOW MUCH SPACE IS ACTUALLY BEING USED

Hello,
I've just recently purchased a Toshiba Dual Core laptop (225 gigs + 3 gig memory.) It works pretty well, but I've had to reload the windows and programs again. The reason is that after reloading I have about 203 gigs of space, but then I install flash CS3 (550 mgs and photoshop 200+) After I've installed all the doc files and everything I end up with about 200 gigs of space which is great. However, I've unistalled norton and installed AVG Professional. My space amount has gone down from 200 to about 193 gigs. I don't get it; it doesn't make sense because this is isn't how much space I've actually used. I've deleted temp files and all the install files of these other programs and what's even more crazy is that when I go ahead and run scan disk to deleted unecessary files, my space goes down in size and it shows that I have even less space! Has anyone else run into this problem? Let me know, perhaps there's a solution.
Thanks,
Tseyigai

Maybe that part number is PSLE8U-02P01D? If so, you have this model: Satellite L355D-S7901
How much space would be reasonable for me to cut back on?
I've set the shadow storage on the computers around here to 10 GB. Suit yourself.
You can save quite a bit of hard drive space by turning hibernation off. Check the size of that file. It's c:\hiberfil.sys.
And look through the stuff Disk Cleanup cites for more savings.
But if you really can't get along without more space, you should add external drives or upgrade this one.
