It’s more of having the photos with me. Had made backups online too. The trouble was when those online storage closes or starts charging for lots more and I had to download them all over again, which is no joke. Which is why even with unlimited storage offered by Google, still rather hesitant.

Just thinking when will unlimited storage cease for Google.

2022 for pixel 3

says my phone

Just make use of the free unlimited storage while still available now.

Worry in future if they cease. I'm sure Google will give ample warning for you to act.

So if keep getting Pixel, the unlimited storage will not end?

In a way you're right but that means upgrading every year or 2 years. Another way would be to have the OG pixel, that one like no expiration :s13:

Google will stop unlimited photo storage if they are as big as Apple.

At the moment, Google is still catching up far behind.

Don't understand what's there to worry about. Any android devices that using Google Photos will automatically upload to the cloud without having u to press any button.

Should u reach the the end of free of original resolution period. They will automatically convert it to HQ for u.

Having SD card to do backup for ur precious photos is so 2010 practice.

Cloud storage is the way to go.

Hahah I'm guessing it's the issue of using a phone that has both Google photos and the in built gallery bah. First thought that comes to mind would be the gallery so maybe some people haven't realise the perks of using Google photos :)

I'm using Google Photos and really like the cloud backups, but having said that I think there is no need to say having local SD backups is 'backward' or 'so 2010s'. Different strokes for different folks.

the reliability of the SD card has gotten worst in today context. even photographers are using wifi SD card, when the photo is taken from their DSLR its immediately pump to their laptops.

it's good to educate people that, there are such "options" available. do you know how many people make mistake then they learn that, "they should have adopt this way rather than the traditional way"

SD card is not suitable for any form of backup. Cloud storage is.

The resiliency, availability, scalability are there.

It will take time to adapt but yeah, cloud is the way to go.

You see even Apple and Google which are the 2 top tech companies are moving away from external memory slot.

Cheapest in Shopee is $609.

Maybe pay someone $30 to buy for you also still cheaper with Google.
