You can check how your device's space is being used thanks to the graphic bar that displays, with different colors, the amount of MB occupied by music, applications, films, photos and other files. While it's not a new feature - it's also available in iTunes and other similar applications - this visual interpretation helps you more quickly and easily evaluate your storage space.
