FAQS
The reason that smartphone manufacturers are ditching micro SD card slots in their devices, especially at the high end, is money. Manufacturers can’t charge a premium for an SD card slot, but they can charge a $100 for a few extra gigabytes of flash storage
SD standards-based memory cards, like most semiconductor cards, store information in flash memory. The current technology along with normal usage typically gives the card a lifespan of 10 years or more, allowing consumers to upgrade their devices for many years and reduce consumer electronic waste.
Most SD cards won’t retain data for more than about five years. The best practice for keeping your data safe is to copy it from your SD card to your computer as soon as you can.
Considering the same parameters as before, a 32GB SD card should be able to hold about 6,300 images shot on a smartphone with a 12MP camera. Similarly, on the GoPro, a 32GB SD card will be good for about 7,620 images.
microSDXC (Secure Digital eXtra Capacity) cards are designed to hold between 32GB and 2TB of data. It’s important to know what version your phone can use. Most modern phones — Android or otherwise — will be able to use a microSDHC card. Many newer phones are capable of using a microSDXC card

Most phones, even with a price of around Rs 10,000 come with 32GB storage. The microSD card is not needed anymore. In fact, microSD card is a technology from a time that no longer exists. It is so old that of all the technologies you can hope to see in a phone, it is the slowest and least reliable by the design.
