Can we have a dedicated general discussion on tech related topics thread? Supposedly I want to share something like this.

It feels inappropriate posting it just anywhere.

Instead of asking you could have posted it yourself if needed. Anyway new thread formed now. Hoping to see some interesting posts.

A gentle reminder before the thread goes haywire. Please post variety of interesting information rather than just a series of YouTube videos. And when sharing news/post/videos from any social sites, make sure they are from official/verified/reputed accounts. Don't share anything from any unknown individual accounts. Thank you.

A lot of phones nowadays are lacking a microSD card slot. Although many people find expandable storage useful, some OEMs neglect to include the feature because it takes up precious space that could be filled by “more important” components. Xiaomi, though, might have a solution for this.

Every smartphone is going to need a SIM card slot, so why not have a SIM card that is also a microSD card? That way you don’t need a separate microSD card slot taking up that extra space in your phone.

Xiaomi could release a SIM card that's also a microSD card, which is brilliant
