You keep switching from Memory to Storage.

Since 7.1 has more included in the OS, you would expect that it would take up more space. Sight unseen, the OS is bigger and has more features than 7.x.x.xxx.

Memory Now, is a list of apps that are open and using resources. Not an amount that is set aside for an app to be installed. I don't use the browser much, but Messages is around 17MB for me. If you feel that you do not have enough memory then close some apps. If you feel you do not have enough storage capacity, then delete unused apps.

7.1.x.xxx also has the Device Analyzer, and using that, you can see if your device's performance is being affected.
