I haven’t owned a phone with removable storage since the Samsung Galaxy S5 back in 2015. (I miss that phone) Since then I’ve gone from iPhone, to Pixel, to Pixel, to iPhone, to iPhone. None of which had/have removable storage. Personally I don’t require much storage. The largest consumer of storage on my current phone is “Messages” at like 10G. I’m pretty sure the Photos app offloads photos to iCloud regularly so It says only 1G of storage.
If it wasn’t for lossless music, and storing about 75 gigs of drone footage on my phone I don’t use a lot of my storage typically. The 256 default is enough for me. But since I imported this phone I just said fuck it and went for the 1TB model and I’m sure as hell gonna use that storage. Apps bloating to use a shit ton of storage? Fuck it I don’t care.
Also I’ve always hated having the two tier storage for my phone. When 64 gig SD cards were a lot for a phone I had one and I hated it. It was only good for music, and offloading some photos. But it was always a pain getting most photo apps to recognize and treat each folder as one unified library so I’d always have half of my photos “inaccessible”. My last phone with an SD card slot was my galaxy note 3 from about the same time. After that I just started buying phones with enough built in storage.
