I just paid extra to have a phone with 265GB. I know it's a scam (SD cards are gigantic and practically free now? Who's gonna pay for a cloud subscription? Just remove the slot!).
But not using clouds outside my job means a lot to me.
If they ever hack my cloud, it's just a lot of photos of spines, livers, and very, very gross closeups of skin diseases. Be my guest.

@Soulshine @dgar Are there any modern phones which have SD card slots?

@donkeyblam @Soulshine @dgar I ordered a batch of new Samsung phones for my workplace. (A55 5G) and they still have SD slots. Pretty durables phones too, and if you get them off-network most of the samsung bloatware can be uninstalled which is decent. They are completely unrepairable though. If you can afford a Fairphone, then I'd hands down, absolutely go for that first and foremost. Sadly, we're locked into state govt procurement in my workplace and can't go to our own vendors directly, so we're stuck with a handful of big brands, as otherwise I'd definitely speak to my boss abt migrating our org to them.
