This is impressive, but... what is so terrible about a Micro SD slot? Knowing, of course, that Apple products don't have one as a rule but my current (cheap) Android phone still does, and storage expansion is a matter of spending $30 at Costco.
- Terretta 2y agoIf you rely on one for anything professional you know what's so terrible about a Micro SD slot. Even pro DSLR camera bodies using top of the line Micro SD tend to fail, that's why they come with two slots that you write to in parallel. // Also, iPhones since getting rid of SIM tray work after days to weeks under fresh or even salt water. That's harder to pull off with slots. More people need their phone to keep working after dropped in water than really need a MicroSD slot.

- MarkusWandel 2y agoThat's why I do pay $30 at Costco, where it is exceedingly likely that the Sandisk memory card actually is one.
