Nike of the S21 models support microSD. On the bright side the 256 gb upgrade is only about $50 more so not too shabby and there is also a pricier 512 GB option

S21 series supports UFS 3.1 which is far faster than Micro SD by far so even though price might be higher, performance will be better across the board.

No, you can purchase an external drive. Samsung T7 appears to be pretty simple and great if you need more storage. And that's for all models of the S21.

There is a difference between external hard drive that you carry around as a separate device and have to deal with connection issues when you need it to an SD card that's internal to the phone, adding minimal weight, doesn't change the shape of the phone (or case requirement) yet provides the storage space you need for those high size image and video files you are taking with the phone.

that was supposed to read external. The post has been edited. And I don't carry mine around. I only should have to back up every so often. But I have it in case I need it.

When I went to swap out the s21 for the s21 ultra, the guy at the store asked me if I had an SD card in the s21... I assumed it had the slot as a result.

Heh, he was just used to asking that question of people.  No SD card in S21 series.
