And then carry around a separate device?!

 
  I interpreted his "portable storage" as a sneaker-net mechanism,
  copying a bunch of files from device X to device Y, where X and Y
  can be any device which can handle MicroSD cards.
 
  (IM) For *that*, a memory-stick is much more conevenient than
  fiddling with tiny MicroSD cards and tiny 'slots'/'trays'.
 
  But meanwhile he has explained that he uses the MicroSD card to
  move a complete file system from and 'old' phone to a 'new' one. So
  he is not copying files, but moving a complete file system.
 
  That is a very specific use of the MicroSD card feature, not
  something I would have described with a general term like "portable
  storage".
