    Go into settings > storage and then see what is taking up most of the space

    What resolution video recording are you doing? In 1080p a 5 min clip is about 1gb so your phone's internal storage can fill up quite fast.

    Yup.

    You can pick up a 16gb memory card for them from about 20 euro but if your using it for videos I'd suggest picking up one with a class 10. I've not checked prices in a long time but expect about 30+ euro.
    If you really want to splash you could get a 64gb card.

    Just upload all your videos and pictures to dropbox(I think you should have got 50gb free)

    Then delete all content from your phone..

    The Google Galaxy S4 with just pure Android, leaves about double the storage of the Samsung released S4.

    Samsung put way too much **** on their phones, and some of it cannot be removed.
