The only advantage of an SD card slot is, that you can expand the memory
if needed - but since even main stream devices come with at least 64 or
128 GB of memory I personally never missed SD cards any longer.

 
Please don't spread nonsense, Arno.

Which nonsense?

Currently I use a Pixel 6a - a mainstream "entry level" device which
already has 128 GB memory. And it has still around 38 GB free. The app
list tells me, that there are 228 apps installed. I also use OsmAnd with
many offline maps on the device, have many pictures and a lot of music
on it, K9 mail with 5 IMAP accounts connected and so on.

Maybe when you install a lot of games memory may be an issue - but for
gaming you may want to get a more powerful device anyway and these often
come with 256 or 512 GB memory.
