All Microsoft Lumias have microsd!

[swedishdude]

Just noticed this...Nokia didn't always put a microsd slot in their phones, which was a huge mistake, especially if you like to shoot video, or use your phone as a portable media player. So far Microsoft have only released phones with microsd slots, hope they keep it up for the high end phones!

all three phones have Micro SD slot... fun fact: All previous versions of the same phone had them as well

Good spot!
Personally, I've never needed/wanted an SD slot. Not only are they an entry point for dust/water, they introduce unreliability, slowness and have a tendency to go missing. Cloud storage is the way to go.​

I think it's fantastic sd slots are included. There are many situations where cloud storage is not an option. Choice is key here.

Also not everyone has unlimited data plans; not to mention most carriers are transitioning away from such plans. Simply for profits as the data connectivity is a perpetual diamond mine, the need for data connectivity will just grow as the world becomes dependent on mobility and always-on connectivity.

Lastly to presume people will always have a blanket coverage of high speed mobile internet to access their files. Well... got nothing to say about that other than, empty your cup, it's far too full.

Calling SD cards slow and naming Cloud storage as way to go is funny

I hope this trend continues to the high-end phones too.

Not ALL Lumia's have SD Card slot.

I know that my 920 didn't have one (and I know a couple others didn't). Granted, it has 32GB of storage, but an SD Card slot would have been nice. With my 32GB 1520 and 128GB SD Card, I never worry about storage.

Read it clearly. He mentioned 'Microsoft' Lumias. 920 is not by Microsoft, its Nokia Lumia.

Ooops, this is what I get for replying to posts before I have my first cup of coffee...

Yeah, that was my point. When I go on vacation and shoot video, I have to bring my laptop to offload stuff, because my phone doesn't have microsd. And of course, WP doesn't support usb thumbdrives...
