That's unfortunate. Sony phones still have SD card slots, but they aren't available in Canada or the USA.Canada
How much storage are you using? If you get a good deal plenty of phones at 512 GB especially when they do early promotions. There are also some really good flash drives.
Not just convenient but an absolute necessity when travelling round areas with a patchy data connection as I often do when working.It's ideal to make use of the cloud (of your choice -- Google Drive, OneDrive, etc.) for things like music, photos, documents, etc. Although it may be convenient to have data like that saved locally,
If 512 was not so much money, I would be OK with all of this lolNot just convenient but an absolute necessity when travelling round areas with a patchy data connection as I often do when working.
I could just about get away with 256GB of local storage but ideally would be much more comfortable with 512GB based on the traditional 50% free rule.
It sucks but is what it is. Only way that will change is if the EU mandated them which they won't.If 512 was not so much money, I would be OK with all of this lol
256 is closed to my SD card
Just a trap they have you in that I don't agree with
You would start getting warnings as you approach full. The system always needs a certain amount of buffer space, which varies depending on the total storage of a phone. I don't know the exact buffer needed on a 256 GB phone, but I'm guessing in the range of 5-10 GB. Once you reach the limit of what the system will allow you to use, you simply won't be able to save more data nor install any more apps unless you start deleting files or uninstalling apps to make room.So, no one knows what you do if it gets full?
Mostly, I fear it would happen quick.
I got a big SD card, just to put my own music on. (And to take pictures, if I needed space.)
I am not buying space and pay monthly for google.
I guess when they change everything.. not much you can do.
