In the 5G era, cellphones don’t need a microSD slot


Jakarta

Moment Galaxy S21 series was released, the absence of a microSD slot is one that many loyal Samsung users have asked about. They worry how to back up data if the phone does not include a slot for an external memory card.

According to gadget observers Lucky SebastianNowadays, memory cards are not of much use in smartphones. More applications and data are stored internally because of the loading speed.

Most of what is stored on the external memory card are documents, photos and videos. It’s just that with the ability of the Galaxy S21 camera that can record 8K, it will be difficult to follow the speed of the memory card.

“If you look at the data on the internal storage speed of UFS 3.1 which is supported by the Galaxy S21, then the speed is 10-20 times faster than a memory card. (That) will only make the memory card into a bottle neck which makes the smartphone’s fast performance disturbed because the memory card speed is already can’t keep up, “explained Lucky.

He added, actually when the 5G network is already running, we don’t need a microSD slot. Because it stores more data in the cloud.

“The transfer speed can match or approach the speed of internal storage,” said the man who lives in Bandung.

Because 5G is not yet available in Indonesia, in the meantime we can use the USB port to be directly connected to a flash or portable SSD which is faster than a memory card.

“Because already using USB-C 3.2, the transfer process both from and to smartphone can take place very quickly, without the need for a computer or intermediary device, “explained Lucky.

What is 5G for in Galaxy S21 Series?

Related 5GMany also asked what the feature was presented for, yet this 4G successor network is not yet available in Indonesia.

Lucky confirmed that currently our country is still planning to implement 5G which may only be realized at the end of 2021 or even next year. Even so, the support for fifth-generation cellular networks on flagship smartphones will still be useful later.

“Flagship smartphones generally have a long usage duration, on average 2-3 years. So when 5G is available in Indonesia, the Galaxy S21 series is ready,” said the man who is often called Kang Lucky.
