Who builds the Pixel?
 
My mistake.   I should have said "doesn't build *all* Android phones".

I'm glad badgolferman is on the ball here, and that Rudy clarified what he
meant, where Usenet is a one-way-at-a-time medium which is off the cuff.

So omissions of detail happen naturally.
A quick correction is always a good thing.

My main point isn't really about sd cards but about the fact that people
are fooled by the (brilliant) marketing of the likes of Apple/Google.

Apple removes functionality (such as the aux jack) and then tells people
it's good for them - when - in reality - it's a strategy of removing basic
functionality so that the customer has to scramble to purchase it back.

Often from Apple.

Once Apple did that, Samsung & Google followed suit.
So they're not much better. They're just not the pioneers of the strategy
of removing basic functionality so that the customer has to buy it back.

It's even worse with the sd slot since Apple *never* allowed people the
basic functionality of portable storage. Apple is not stupid.

Apple is one of the most profitable companies in the world.
That profit is off the backs of people who believed Apple's marketing.

The fact is if you take two phones (otherwise equal), one with an sd card
and one without, the one with the sd card will *always* be vastly more
functional (and less expensive) than the one with it if you need
functionality.

Of course, if you don't need functionality, then it won't matter.
But even Arno said, in effect, since he didn't buy a phone with an sd slot,
that he had to pay a *lot* to get a phone with more internal storage.

And even then, it's *impossible* to replace what an sd card actually does.

The point is there is no advantage to not having an sd card.
Only disadvantages that need to be overcome (by paying a *lot* of money!)

That's why they remove it.
