Hate this, put hybrid sim slot from worse to worst, bad move Huawei.
Old hybrid slot is bad but still able to mod microsd with sim
NM card is no way for 2 sim + sd at all.

You guys (comment section) have to look at it this way: we have phone companies SUPER adamant about microSD cards (OnePlus, Google Pixel, Apple, and Asus come to mind) but they all (except MAYBE Google) support Dual Sim. Wouldn't it be nice for those companies to offer this as an alternative so we finally get expandable memory for their phones? I know it's not ideal (especially for us consumers) but since they strongly believe microSD cards kill the spacing of the phones, this could be a win-win for the companies to offer expandable memory by allowing this format onto their 2nd SIM slots and it doesn't cost them jack while we FINALLY get this option.
I don't like it but this could finally be a way for Pixel devices, the next ASUS ROG, and OnePlus phones to finally offer expandable memory and I'd reluctantly accept that.

No thanks. i have like 10 microSD cards and they work fine across literally any modern devices that has expandable memory. The last thing we need is a new proprietaly form factor to replace the thing that already works just as expected. Don't fix it if its not broken.

Inferior to micro SD card in 4 major areas:
1) Speed (high end micro SD cards 270 GB/s R)
2) Capacity (currently 400 and 512 GB for micro SD cards top dogs)
3) Availability of devices supporting this new standard.
4) Availability of the cards themselves (go to any local shop in your area and ask for them - be ready to deal with the stares, stay firm, don't lose it now).

I would like to see a journalist do an article and try asking Samsung where are the UFS cards they announced in 2016.

It's great to see HUAWEI pushing a new memory card standard, but isn't it a little too early? Besides, since it performs like a MicroSD Card, you're basically paying more for what's more or less the same, except the fact that it's smaller, like your SIM Card
