    Same as the past 10 or so years, from what I can tell.

      Spotify has a SD card feature that’s completely broken.
      My Samsung camera App can’t record 4k60 to the SD card, no matter the speed.
      At least the Samsung file manager handles it decently :D

        The Spotify feature works for me.

    Uh…fine? I’m still on a perfectly working Note 10+.

    The same as always, why wouldn’t it be? I decide how much capacity I want on my phone, pop it in, format and encrypt, and it amalgamates with the rest of my storage. Perfection.

    That was a good read with some helpful tips, but they didn’t have a conclusion at the end so they never answered their own question!

    It’d be a hell of a lot better if I could put my apps on either an SD or microSD card. Hell, it’d be bliss if JoiPlay had the capability to load shit from my SD card to save space on my phone. The pokemon fangames I really enjoy are by no means getting smaller.

    Works great. I use it in case I need to transfer large files instead of having to carry a dedicated USB drive around.

    SD is fine, has always been fine. But people never replace them as often as they should. That’s why they started trying to keep people from putting apps on them. They’re pushing to make the cards to go away because it saves them from support calls and makes the phones appear to degrade slower.

      could you just have a warning to the user that it appears that their SD card is slow? Feels like that should be doable. We used to get warnings when we’d plug in a USB2.0 device into a USB1.0 port on windows

        Google never cared enough.
        This has been an issue since at least Android 4, granted some SD cards are terrible at random IO.

          Oh google cared. They had interviews where they assured the interviewers that modern phones had plenty of space on board, and they didn’t need sd cards any more. And followed up with comments about os issues.

          Bottom line the decision makers at google are out of touch with reality. Much like their stances on ensuring their apps will work if their is no internet. They live in a world that is always full 5g connected, so obviously everyone does. Trying to use their music apps after “downloading” the music makes me very upset.

        Battery life is good so far. Nothing special. The screen seems sensitive as well, I can’t really attest for anything like mobile gaming though.

        Mind you the phone is 120hz, I think I might notice if the touch sampling rate was low, but again, I can’t attest for gaming much. All I’ve played are rhythm games.

    I store all my music in there from my streaming service so I can have uninterrupted music when driving, cycling etc. Have about half a terabyte in there. My phone has enough memory that I dont need to store my apps on there. Also keep pics and video on SD card
