Very little since you can easily use any external drive, including 
relatively dirt cheap, high capacity hard drives. At worst, you'll need 
to add an adaptor to the price.

But of course, as the usual anti-Apple know-nothing troll, you don't 
realise that actual fact nor the fact that most people simply don't 
give a crap about increasing their device's storage capacity, whether 
that is Apple or Android.
