You should be able to perform a smart switch even with the SD card.
Smart Switch gives you an option on what you would like to upload and what can be opted out. This should include files on an SD card, phone settings, contacts etc.
Alternatively, like that other comment said you can upload all the files to Google Drive, Quick Share and many more options.
Yes, you can upload your saved folders photos from your SD card to a phone without a memory card via Smart Switch. Be sure you transfer all (when I did mine it asked to include SD card or had a little drawing of a SD card in upper right corner to include same sorry it has been over a year since I last did this). I had labeled all my folders as SD (ie SD Notification tones) so I knew those came over from the SD card vs the internal Notifications on internal device storage tones. When the transfer completes, you can delete the duplicate files created on new internal device storage. Hope this helps.
