tbh SD cards are out and mostly for power users, make them compatible with M2 drives :))
Screw M.2, I want to use my enterprise grade 7TB U.2 Kioxia drive in my 50 bucks Chinese phone, I just can't live without it!
SD cards and M.2 drives are not really comparable, since they are used for different things. It would be cool to have a phone that has main storage a M.2 drive, but i would still want it to have an SD card slot.
M.2 would make phones inordinately thick and un-usable. If you really need more than 1TB of storage on your phone, dump your pictures and Videos every so often to a home NAS PC running TrueNAS Core or Scale. And if you have Music on your phone that you own the files to, consider using your home NAS as a Media Server using Plex and use Plex Amp or some other app to stream the music direct to your phone.
