If everything is on the SD card (as in: it won't work w/o the card inserted), then it will have to come with a card pre-installed. In that case, the average user won't even realize there's a removable card. It's turtles all the way down.

- catlikesshrimp 5y agoSounds alright that people complain about not knowing about external storage. They will be educated at that point. This sounds like something that can only be mandated. It doesn't make much from a business point of view.
- smallerfish 5y agoThe card could come separately from the phone in the same box. Phone boots up off the OS on internal storage, and the intro wizard says "Now insert your SD card, which is where your personal data will be stored." Done.
