Nigerians are always resistance to change until that tin becomes obsolete b4 we finally embrace it...who still uses ad card in 2017. Cloud storage is he best way to keep it data for years to come and its auto backup, means for instance I capture a photo it is already saved a d you don't have to worry even if I loose it phone. Yes it uses data and data is expensive but for the services they offer I think it's totally worth it.

2 simple reasons I stopped using an sd card

Sd card (aka "memory card) also known as external memory, of course is a common possession among Nigerians but such is not the same with other countries as they use modern features such as "Cloud storage" it's like..unfortunately Nigeria is still a bit far from adapting this trend.
So in this post, I'm gonna explain to you the bads of using an sd card and hopefully convince you in using other easy storage option such as Cloud storage
so first I'm gonna start with the disadvantages of an sd card.

1. It makes your phone lag..
Have you ever notice or have ever tried comparing your phone startup speed? (that is the time it takes to power on or off??)
..well if you have ever tried it, you'll notice that you phone boots(startup) faster without sd card especially those with bigger memory size such as 64,128,256GB..that's why flagship such as the Xiaomi mi6 and even the upcoming Essential PH-1 are been released without sd card slot.. so the whole point here is to tell you that, an sd card could cause your phone to lag or probably hang..also take note that it might not be noticeable in some phones with advance and the latest processors such as those with "snapdragon SoC" or recent "mediatek chipsets series".

2. virus attacks
Of course almost everyone is aware of this ugly fact..sd card are very prone to virus and the only solution is to format it and in the process you tend to lose all your valuable data such as music,videos,pictures, e. t. c

so, yeah..that's all for now I hope you were a bit convinced
p. s :I'm not saying you shouldn't buy a memory card, all I'm trying to say is that..next time when getting a new device, go for those with big internal memory so that you can avoid the stress of buying an sd card and also the consequences that comes with it.

i reckon with you. of recent i lost my phone. and was full of regrets of the document and memories on it.

It takes literally a few seconds to upload your photos to the Cloud. There are so many options. Google drive and Dropbox are probably one of the best.

The question is not how long it takes. The question he ask is if he gonna use his precious data to upload the files

Gptech:

grin, don't be angry, technology is moving in a fast pace, and I can't remember any company including a class 10 memory card in a phone, what they have was within class 6, and with small capacity, like 8 gig, don't think that is considered a good offer today. It will be a welcome development if they can add a decent memory card and add it to the price of the phone.
They actually know what they'r doing for not including external memory to the phones anymore. they realized your phone is safer with external memory: any virus coming in would only affect the sd card, and u may not buy another phone any time soon. but with internal memory, they can easily introduce viruses through different apps and resetting the phone won't solve it, so you'll be forced to buy another. It's All About Markettin!

What about uploading all my 6000 + 1000 videos, that are already backed up on my sd card, would that take seconds?
Re: Why I'll Never Use A Memory Card In My Life Again by femarse: 9:10am On Jun 18, 2017
the OP is a little deluded and brainwashed
of course I use both mmc and cloud Google drive and OneDrive and I have tons of things on them ranging from my certificates to photos to apps to document thousands of PDF files etc and they are completely different thing mmc if for things u will be needing almost every now and then cloud is majorly for backup simple anytime I am using someone laptop or phone and I need to get a doc I simply log on to my Google drive and bring it out this always make me happy but I don't think it's in the right other of mind every time I want to show my friend something on my phone I should be assessing the internet just to get them
well u are one of those people that was fool into thinking u don't need a memory card and the same set of people that told u that will now tell u to buy external cloud storage again ... I think they first told u that u don't need external memory while cloud storage is good the motive behind it is purely profit and nothing more just so u don't know the cloud u are making noise about is also a physical hard drive that can be attack by a virus just like ur PC drive
same people that told u that u don't need a radio on your phone to listen to music which is free later tell u to stream the music which of course have a cost attached to it
every idea they selling to u is to make sure all your hard earned money drop from your pocket
or u really think the streaming music is on the cloud ? no it's on a physical hard drive and what's stopping you from having your own personal hard drive ? if they can protect their own from been attack by virus u too can

Re: Why I'll Never Use A Memory Card In My Life Again by kennyhydee(m): 9:17am On Jun 18, 2017
What an ignorant post!!!
FYI, naija is a third world country, data isn't cheap!!!!

Cloud storage consumes data, lots of it, to back up ur data/files, u need data, to access it, u need data as well, except for the new trend of offline availability, even that is stored locally as cache. So what are u saying

Get a quality external storage, and constantly back it up on a computer (if u have one).

Don't just come here trying to sound smart while playing yourself in the process.

Even some flagships still offer expandable storage, heck!!! The newest offerings​ from Samsung, LG, HTC and Sony have expandable storage. Apple's decision not to is simply greed.

As for ur point about virus attacks, I don't even know what to say!!!

Ask urself y audio streaming services/apps are still unpopular in naija, DATA
