Bwahahaha 256 GB storage. So perhaps 200 GB left for the user. [so I have searched for 5 minutes now and can not find the bitrate of the video recording. Fucking trash articles everywhere] So let's assume 200 Mbit/s and those 200 GB are enough for about 200 minutes of video recording. Laughable. Record a single 5 minute video and boom 2.5 % of your storage are full.

Want to get more storage? Well you gotta pay several 100 $. While a 1 TB micro SD costs not even 100 $.

I personally do not buy smartphones without MicroSD support. Thankfully options are still available for this feature.

Options that are high end too? Specifically the camera, I need a really good one. I am afraid of the day my S20 needs to be replaced. This is one of the main reasons I have no other phone so far and they STILL ship super-mega-top-end phones with absurdly little storage.

I've stopped buying high-end smartphone in the last ~7 years, unfortunately cameras are one of the few remaining areas where there is an actual difference between flagships and mid-range devices. Although I think in the next few years this difference will evaporate.

No. The only high end phone with sdcard is the Xperia 1 VI and Sony decides not to release it in the USA.
