32? That's a lot. I hadn't 8gb. Do you need more storage or something!?

You need to take in to account that the OS takes space and all the apps you install, music you may have and pictures you take. The A02 does have the option to use a MicroSD card to increase storage options.

I assume you mean that you now only have 8 GB available space and you are not talking about memory.

If you bought a phone with 32 GB of storage, it's very low storage in the first place - meant for people who only need a phone to be a phone with some extras.  The operating system takes up about 14 GB of storage, so already you are losing almost half your space.  Factor in reserved space for cache and file operations and that leaves you very little room for apps and files.  Your best practice would be to put in an SD card and save all your pictures, screen shots and music to the SD card.  You cannot run apps off the SD card, so pick which apps you really need and keep up with device optimization. Look for a deal on a phone with at least 128 GB of space around Black Friday - one of the newer A Series phones, perhaps.  Still budget, but with more space and features.
