On Android, you can usually plug flash drives into the phone's USB port (either USB-C drives or using the correct dongles/adapters). They might insist you format them first so make sure you start by plugging them in and formatting on the phone before adding media. I think there's some apps that can read, for instance, NTFS (although I remember it being a little flakey)

This allows storage, peripherals (wired headphones!) to connect to the USB-C port: <https://www.minitool.com/news/what-is-otg.html https://www.minitool.com/news/what-is-otg.html> <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_On-The-Go https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_On-The-Go>
