Hi all. I bought an Axon Mini recently, and although I'm very pleased with it (great spec, obscenely good value), I can't actually work out how to open the SD card slot. There's no way of getting a finger nail under it and jamming a sharp point into the very tiny hole at the top of the flap doesn't do anything either. There's no manual with the phone, and as far as I can see nobody on the internet has yet asked this question.
I think the Elite also has a similar slot so perhaps somebody's had some experience with this?
Thanks in advance for any tips!
What do you mean? I own an Elite and I just did what everyone else does, used the SIM ejection tool and the tray popped out, does the Mini have a different design?
I also own a Mini. The SD Card occupies one of the sim slots. When you eject the sim holder the larger slot can take the MicroSD card.
anyone can help me make my zte mini google phone? I bought I in China..

Morning all, I am about to buy an SD card for my (soon to be delivered) Mi Max 2. There are so many different manufacturers and classes etc, what is the best? Cheers!

Actually make that 200GB, the 256GB cards are double the price for not a lot more storage!
Does anyone know if the MI5 has a Hybrid Slot so you can insert 2 nano sims AND one microsd? The second nano sim chip is then on the back of the microsd card, as e.g. with the S7 having a hybrid alot.
Thinking about buying a 32gb version of the MI5 and hoping for storage extension through this.
Nope, pure sim slot
Damn... so why do other Xiaomi's have a hybrid one...

My dear, flagship of xiaomi (mi3, mi4, mi5, mi5s, mi 6 min note, mi note 2, mi mix) never has sd card slot.
There are a lot of conflicting views that this has an sd slot or not.
I've seen about half saying yes and half saying no and don't know what is true? I'm in the UK so not sure if there are different versions?
No, The P20 pro only has 128gb built in storage.
It does support USB storage via a USB-C adapter
It definitely doesn’t. Unfortunately, it seems a lot of retailers and websites are reporting it does. That’s a mistake. 100% mistake.
To back up what ricjuh and gavinfabl have said above, here's a copy of my chat transcript on this issue with Huawei online support:
3:21:25 PM - deebo007 said : Hi Thea, I have a question about the new P20 pro
3:21:44 PM - deebo007 said : Does it have a microSD card slot to expand the memory?
3:22:12 PM - deebo007 said : Many websites say that it does, but your website does not mention it.
3:22:47 PM - Thea said : One moment to check!
3:22:51 PM - deebo007 said : Thanks
3:24:10 PM - Thea said : Thank you for waiting, the P20 Pro does not support a microSD to expand the memory.
3:24:50 PM - deebo007 said : OK, thanks very much. that's a real shame as I was looking to get one. This has unfortunately ruled this option out for me.
3:25:12 PM - Thea said : Ah, very sorry to hear. I can understand why a microSD would be important.
3:27:46 PM - deebo007 said : OK, thanks Thea, please pass on my comment to your design team, this is a major issue when your new P20 Pro does not support it but your Honor View 10 does, seems to be a very strange decision.
3:29:07 PM - Thea said : I agree with you! I will pass this on to my design team in regards to this.
3:29:28 PM - deebo007 said : Thanks. Have a good day.
As stated, 100% it does not. The SIM tray is equal to that of the Mate 10 Pro (they're essentially the same hardware platform - I'm sure the SIM slot lines up perfectly) and has two nano slots in it - nothing more.

this is a very bad news, it pushes to heavy users to search another options, like S9+ plus, with some versions with 256GB internal memory + microsdxc slot up 400GB.
very wrong move of huawei, especially with a 3- camera lens, RAW and HDR format, 4K video and Slow-Mo option
I can not Inderstand... 40 Megapixel Pictures With a karge size per Picture but No way for SD....
Offline navigation. Some Games and a few Photos and storage is empty....i do Not understand IT :/

I guess it depends if you feel like you have to keep everything stored on your phone forever. I backup and remove things as I think phones perform better without bloat and 128GB of storage feels huge to me! Last phone I had with 128GB storage (Nokia 8) I didn't even bother putting an SD in. You can easily plug USB C card readers into modern phones for backup purposes if you don't want to use Google Photos (or the cloud generally).

Pretty pointless having a phone then unless just used the camera!
Very witty
ok ok ok... I have a question... what the hell are they referring to when they say that the Huawei P20 Pro has two nano slots that could be used for expansion?? are they saying that these nano slots are accessable for expansion?? this is so confusing for me and quite possibly for others as well.. I am pretty sure that this is where people are getting confused and saying that the P20 Pro is SD expandable. Someone really needs to do some rewording of the Huawei P20 Pro Description and indicate that its got no Expansion slots.. only reason why I got it was to have the 4 camera feature which the pro camera feature on it has a very high pixel quality to it and is rated highest over all other Cell Phones.

Hey guys,
I just had to clean up a few posts in this thread. Let's keep things civil and on-topic.
Thanks!

Hi all,
Could you confirm me that this phone has the possibility to install 2 sim and a sd card at the same time. Or as usual you have to sacrify the sim slot for the sd card?
Tnx
"Unfortunately, the X2 Pro does not have a slot for micro SD expansion. No dedicated/hybrid slot so you’ll have to live with 128/256GB internal storage."

Like he said.
The X2 non-pro though does have the 2 NanoSim plus additionally an SD-Slot.

Thank you guys... I had this doubt since I knew that the NONPRO version has this feature and I was wondering why the PRO doesn't
