>>52857906
This is pretty fucking horrifying to be honest.

We have chips able to hold hundreds of gigabytes of data at a moments notice, giving our phones unbeknownst levels of data storage, and yet, people shit it away because "muh cloud" is so much better.

How long until local storage is phased out? Will future devices have enough storage for the ROM itself, and everything be cloud based?

Do these people not realize how fucking ripped off they're getting? Or do they just not care?

SD cards are slower and prone to read errors and corruption. Substantial on-board flash storage will always be preferred to SD cards.

There will always be a niche for the SD card, but since most things have about 32-64 GBs of built-in storage, along with nearly infinite cloud storage, the need for SD cards for most devices isn't there.

>>52857960
MicroSD is fucking slow in comparison to the storage in the phone though.

It still. Fucking. Works. Never had a problem. What is this read error and corruption stuff? I used link2sd to basically add it to the onboard memory and it functioned fine.

>>52857973

>>52857964
Why the fuck do shills keep spewing this bullshit? I have used sd cards for years and never had a single one fail. And correct me if im wrong newer and top class cards are easily over 100mb/s

>>52858004
Flash storage is still super reliable, but corruption does happen, and it has happened to me actually.

I dropped my old Galaxy S3 once, and had a 32GB card in it. The phone itself was fine except for a chip on the corner. Then I booted and the SD card was corrupted, not only that, the SD card reader no longer functioned. This may not happen all the time to everyone, but it does happen. When has this ever happened to on-board storage? how do you knock that loose?

The more components you add, the more shit there is to break, simple.
64 GBs on-board > 32 GBs on-board + SD card slot

And we're not even accounting for read/write speeds and directory bullshit.

>>52858019
External HDD is too slow when you're dealing in 3TB of data. Takes fucking hours to copy it all at 150MB/s.

You're lucky if you break 30MB/s with MicroSD. I don't really feel like copying 200GB of data at that speed.

>>52857906
Sure ive got 2 tablets and a phone that uses those. You can get a cheap SD adapter to size it up for normal SD slots too

>>52858059
>And correct me if im wrong newer and top class cards are easily over 100mb/s
You're wrong.
For SD cards this is the case, for MicroSD cards it is not.

>>52858059
>anecdotal story
>'I've never had it happen to me, it has never happened to anyone else!"
It has happened to me on two devices, personally. Besides that, it is something that happens. Flash is pretty reliable, but it is still a peripheral component. It is more shit that can break.

>100mb/s
still x6.5 slower than on-board storage

>>52858079
Youre right, just checked and the fastest is the samsung pro at close to 90mb/s. Still pretty fucking good if you ask me and will only get better in the future.

We need to focus more on cheaper, larger, on-board ROM storage, not just slap in a microSD card slot.

It's the manufacturers way of making us buy the next generation of shit. Room for more internal flash? Forget it. Micro SDs getting cheaper? Remove the slot. It took Apple 3 years longer than necessary to release 128GB model devices. And even now costs too much to be a realistic purchase for most.

The oldest rule of manufacturing. Don't make your product -exactly- what they want or they won't want the next one, or the first one might even outlive the cycle to the second one.

I just bought a Cowon Plenue D which has facility for up to 200GB micro SD XC cards so I should finally be able to escape the cycle. If the battery lasts.

Storage doesn't prevent a phone from serving its function, outdated RAM and CPU does though.

Regardless, as we discussed earlier, more ROM is always, always better. The real advancement should be more ROM, made cheaper.

Why do people always want more and more and more components for the sake of it?

>>52858670
some people are unlucky enough that they have to travel a lot. cards with several hundred GB space come useful then. just torrent a few movies and enjoy your travel.
I know i'll never buy a device which doesn't have enough or at least a card to slot to increase that space.
i mean, i have an LG G4 and if they had given it 64GB onboard like v10, i'd have been content without having a card slot.

>>52858019
It is too slow for some things. I had a friend who put all apps on his sd because his phone had almost no internal memory, and it ran horribly till he moved them back, also large libraries of pics, music, videos take a while to index on slower sds. That being said im happy having a 64gb sd in my phone and it is fast enough for most tasks, but more demanding stuff goes on the internal storage which is 2x-6x faster.

My Raspberry Pi was left plugged in for a week or so while I waited for a new keyboard to be shipped (the left shift and enter keys were starting to become unresponsive), and I must've moved it somehow, because the power switch I threw together in a few minutes to control it shorted out. Tried to boot it up, but it was stuck on a black screen. Turns out the SD card fried. I had ordered that thing three weeks prior. And it wasn't a shit card or anything.

(i may be an old fag). i have been swapping my collection with flac for a few weeks now, so that septuples the file sizes. like i posted above, all my drives are red but thankfully my PC is is 2009 era and i think this is the time build a new one. come spring, i'll have a new build with nothing less than a 2TB drive which, i'll double next year or straight buy 8GB new drive.

You just can't compare the two storage mediums. You might get higher capacity out of a MicroSD but the phones flash storage is much faster.

But new phones do still have SD card slots.

I have my onboard storage and a microSD card inserted. Is my device special or something? Why would you buy a device with no slot if you wanted expandable storage?

What's the deal with Laptops which have SD card slots, but when you insert one it just stick out rather than fit in flush?
It just seems completely nonsensical to me

>>52860151
Speed of the cloud is 0 when you, for any myriad of reasons, aren't connected to the internet.

>>52864059
The idea's that you're using the SD card like a flash drive, you just plug it in to transfer data and are done; not using it to expand your laptop's storage

retailer replaced it ("fuck it, it's christmas") under warranty and i haven't had a problem since.

>>52864107
But why not just make it a full size slot instead? Doesn't seem like it'd be very difficult or hamper anything.

It looks ok on paper, but then you realise you're probably only going to get a fraction of those mobile data speeds if you live anywhere relatively busy, so the SD card ends up being tens, possibly hundreds of times faster in pretty much all cases.

>>52860487
I personally have this fear that all that is waiting for cloud to take over is a company that starts to give out displays with gsm/wifi capabilities for a subscription on their cloud services. If they are able to provide users with same or even better experience than having hardware locally then I dont see how cloud doesnt become the next thing

I'm still on the N7000 Note 1, I just have to fix the USB port as it died.

>>52864347
This is happening already in a business environment, thin-clients very small and compact has netcard, low powered CPU/GPU SOC and a O/S that connects to a Cloud Server (AKA a server running virtualization) that does all the intense shit or just Remotes into a Full Windows VPC on said server.

>>52864533

Yeah business environments have control on network capabilities. Internet capabilities have to drastically improve outside for cloud to become mainstream. Though I can see it starting a decade from now

My Note 3 does. 32GB Internal + 64GB external on Marshmallow. Feels good.
Also the LG G4 and LG V10 have microSD up to 128GB and 200GB, respectively.

My new chink tablet does
It comes with a 32gb win 10 sad
I ran out of space in less than 24 hours, so an 64gb will be really handy

>>52857906

Pretty sure if it supports 128 it'll support 200. It's just that the 200 cards weren't available when they wrote up the G4's spec sheet.

If you need more storage in your car or at home use a OTG cable and a external drive. 32gb internal is enough for doing everyday tasks. I got a bunch of FLAC files and I record a lot of 4k and I have yet to fill up my 32gb's.

No because it's not profitable if you can just go from a 16gb device to a 100000GB device for $30 instead of $300, without even paying for cloud service or letting someone sell your data

>>52858065
This is wrong because it doesn't consider what I see as most important in regards to sd cards; security. Many accidents and mishaps can occur over which you have no control, such spillage, moist/hot weather, corrosion, etc. Sd cards can be retrieved after such events and the data it holds will be safe and sound. Replacing phones will also benefit from sd cards since you can transfer all your data, whether 32gb or 128gb, instantly. Also you can share your data with others, again instantaneously with the use of sd card readers/adapters, and it can function in many settings (radios, pc, laptop). Sd cards are sufficiently fast for storage i.e. storing music, videos, book, etc.

Consumers should have the choice. Manufacturers coerce users into moving to "faster, more efficient" storage systems when they can simply replace a card with a better/faster one. They also charge ridiculous prices for storage upgrades (e.g. an additional $100 for a mere 32gb, which would cost about $15 for an sd card, $100 which could be used to buy a 128gb sd card).

I am abstaining from buying the note 5 because of this. I'd probably get an LG phone with a stylus once they become good enough.
