If i swap sd cards on phones does the gigabytes on the phone change.

[Android Central Question]

If I have a phone with 16 gigabytes and I change the sd card to a phone with 64 gigabytes does it take away the 64 gigabytes and make it 16?

the sd card will simply add to the amount that's there already

If I am understanding your question correctly, your phone has 16 GB on the internal storage. This you cannot change.

The external storage of your phone is controlled by the SD card you insert. This is separate from the internal storage.

Some phones will let you "adopt" the SD card as adopted storage where the phone treats the SD card as more internal storage. If you do this, you cannot "swap" the SD card for another in most cases.
