Petition for MicroSD slot in Nexus devices

Sure, that's why the biggest selling Android phone has it. Many others still do as well but stay unimformed if you want.

Something that you need to consider. Biggest selling android that is released by an oem. They have control over the hardware. Nexus is released by Google so there won't be an sdcard as already explained by them. Good effort on the petition though but it does have a very slim chance if not none at all. If you must use an sdcard, go for an oem released unit so you can get it.

You don't need to petition, Google has people reading the boards, and they're aware of how you feel. nevertheless, they've made a business decision and you can live with it, or buy a different phone.

I have a GS3 and it is a great phone but i just love the MicroSD card option. A 32GB card is so cheap now. 64GB is getting to be a great price and adding that yourself is imo a great addition to the phone. Some say having one place for memory is better but i dont see why. Anything you click on no matter where it is stored is going to show up on the phone. If you have 2GB dedicated to apps, so what? It is there in the Apps section of your drive. I dont see how it is better to have just one. All they are doing is partitioning the drive/memory but it is still the same drive/memory.

In anycase, some here say it was explained. I saw it and i thought it was a weak explanation.

Stop crying and stick with your gs3 since something that just flat out won't happen you need sooooo much. The nexus isn't for everyone. You aren't one it was meant for, deal with it. Google won't change for you or me and they pay me for my knowledge, not you.
 
EVERY phone should have an sd card slot, period.

That cloud stuff is cool, but with data limits isn't reasonable.

Fcc should make these carriers offer an unlimited un throttled plan for devices with limited storage.

This is one issue where Google is taking a page out of the book of Apple.

Apple always had non removable batteries and no removable storage.

I still am getting the nexus 4, going to decide if I'll be keeping my galaxy s 3 when i get it.

No. They all shouldn't. If that was the case they all would. I think Google knows way more about this than you lol. Apple too for that matter.

Upgradeable anything be it storage or whatever is always better than non upgradeable

Wow, what an impressive rebuttle. So you say they pay you and this is how you talk in the forums? Based on this i wouldnt pay you crap but thanks for such a enlightening post and telling me the Nexus isnt for me. Im sure Google would like to know this is what you say to customers. So if they are paying you,....Bro, you are overpaid!!!

So since they dont pay me, just let me say to you...SHUDDUP! I'll buy whatever the hell i want and dont need somebody like you to tell me what is right or wrong for me.

I guess you just dont get it. And who the hell are you? Embarassing is watching you try to respond to people with no people skills.
 
lol..

Not sure why you guys are trying to discourage him. He's already made up his mind about this. It's his problem now.

Just don't expect many people to waste their time clicking on it.

Im pretty reasonable. I can have a discussion on this. Yes id like a SD slot but when a couple of posters come here and say dumb stuff like "stop crying" i take exception. Who needs to hear that crap? Im just giving my opinion. You want to give something worth while...great. To say stupid things and then say you get paid by Google...lol, what an idiot. Now thats how to be persuasive :confused:

yea but you really should stop crying. if you want a sd card stick with the sg3 or one of the other androind phones that have it. Your freaking out like it a big deal n4 cant have a sd but there ar a bunch of other choices of anroid phones that can have sd. i will be buying the 16gb n4 and i probably wont be filling that up because i will be streaming my music and stuff. why does everything in the world have to be your way?
 
I think any kind of ungrability and ability to quicly swap data is good thing for user,i think if Google thing a little bit harder they would solve there sd card problems,but i bet there demend for could users is stronger to do so :p

I think also it's more useful tablets then mobile phones which is closer to being a workstation

Freaking out? Im not freaking out. I made a post, gave my reason why i like MicroSD slots and wish the Nexus line had them. Or at least give us a choice to have a SD card or 32GB of memory.

I dont prefer to stream to save data which saves a few bucks. Pardon me for liking what i like. Always wanted to get a Nexus phone but they always lacked some things.This one has better specs, just wish it had more memory.

As for the bolded..."everything in the world has to be my way"? A phone isnt "everything in the world" and you dont know me.
 
Does anyone realize u are getting a top notch phone for half the price of other android phones? Let's all make a petition to Samsung so it comes with vanilla android. This is ridiculous to complain about. Obviously they had to save some money somehow and no matter what happened someone would find something to complain about. If u want an SD card slot then go spend the extra $400 and get a phone with one. Google has explained the SD card slot thing and why its not there.

This thread sounds familar.

Is there a petition to have Nexus smartphones and tablets never have SD cards again? I'd sign that.

Ryan, In my view is 100% correct. Everyone should calm down, we have to face it has no SD card and that is life.
To be honest, they can just be pushing a new form of technology, now it maybe seam a little silly but all big things can seam silly at the start. My nanna claims the computers in her day's was a joke, look at them now. Everything requires progress guys and we are getting a really good product for a really low price. Phones are for different people, if its not your thing there is one for you. Maybe we should just back off and leave it at that. If you guys want a real petition all buy LG & Google shares till you guys have enough power for above 50% of control of the company, then make your choices on their investments and business choices.

I will be very proud to make that thread. I found a it not overally but slightly annoying when sd cards wouldnt load, have to download apps to view etc.

Exactly.

If expandable memory via SD card is a high priority for you, there are devices available.

The beauty of Android - you have options.
