Don't forget the SD card slot missing, S20 was the last one that had it. I still don't know what to get after that, just because of the missing SD.

mine can take an sd card, but only if i take out one of my sim cards, of course

Internal storage on phones is over 200gb by now. I havent needed an SD for years. What the fuck do you store on your phone that could still need an SD? lmao

I have a young son and it was getting very irritating having to be selective recording my videos of him. I finally just paid $90 and added a 1TB premium sd card, and now I won't have to worry about it at all & download all the videos I want for us.

Upgrading the internal storage to 1TB on a new phone costs several hundred dollars.

Because I like to store stuff on my phone

4k video files will fill your phone up mighty quick. especially if you use it for youtube videos or similar. or film your family/pets a lot

I am 12 and this is deep, what a moronic take

[–] Eheran@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Record 1 minute video, how big is that file? 200 MB, 0.2 GB. 5 minutes and 1 GB is full. When something interesting happens, 5 minutes are recorded easy, obviously. 200 GB, nothing for apps, maps, downloads,... are enough to record 15 hours of video. Then that is it. How many moments can I capture with that? Enough for maybe 2 years? I don't throw my memories away when I get a new phone. Instead, I just buy a new SD every few years and compress the video files every once in a while.

I got an A52 just for that reason. Still using it. I wanted a S20 but they were sold out and I was told they stopped making it.

That pisses me off the most
