You represent the minority of people (us) that look for expandable storage. As others have stated, most people like the way it looks and cool functions it may have. The microSD was a factor for you, not everyone.
And just how do you know that I represent the minority and those who don't care about expandable storage represent the majority? Is this another of your "guesses?"
You know the GS3's expandable storage wasn't marketed right? Storage is not the reason it sold so well.
I certainly didn't maintain it was the ONLY reason it sold so well, but it was certainly A reason, and I've definitely seen ads where it was mentioned in the list of differences between it and iPhone, for instance.
Like I said just a guess, but until you show me where it says there is no physical difference in the PCB, size of memory chip, and pin set, you are taking the same shot in the dark that I am.
As I said before, I happen to be an electrical engineer who has designed computer circuitry in the past, and am familiar with PCB layout. And I'll guarantee you that the physical packaged size of the chips are identical for 16g, 32g or 64g of memory. The difference, as I stated previously, is that there is an additional address line pinned out on the package for each doubling of memory size. The PCB will take any of the three chips with NO modifications, and the phone upon boot will determine how much memory is present. Its not a guess, its professional experience and expertise, ok?
