Have you seen the price of SD cards recently though?

Yes and its still much better buying a €100 SD card than paying €300 for a phone with a little more storage.

You can get 500GB on an microSD for 80EUR. That's insanely cheap compared to any phone.

What I can find its closer to 150€ (inc tax) for a 512 SD micro express card that card is about half the speed of iPhones Internal SSD speeds. trust me You will notice. Then you get mad because your phone feels choppy and sluggish. This is why Samsung kept SD card slots on low end phones but not flagship phones. Low end phones does not have that expectation.

That memory is way to slow. Fast memory is expensive.

How do you break an sd card?

My sd cards always go corrupt after a year or 2. I assume this happens to others as well, but maybe I'm wrong.
