Modern phones have a huge range of functionality. Since a certain time, cellular began to be supplied with removable media, which practically equated them with a PDA. However, in order to use a flash drive, you need to decide on the type and capacity for your phone model.
Instructions
Step 1
First, take a note that there are several types of media: TransFlash, MS (MemoryStick), CF (CompactFlash Card), XD Card, MMC (MultiMedia Card), Reduced Size MultiMedia Card, M2 (MS Micro), SD (SecureDigital), Mini SD (Mini SecureDigital), Micro SD (Micro SecureDigital). The latter type is popular and often used in modern phone models, it is the most compact and is not inferior in spaciousness. Mini SD is an obsolete format. Flash cards differ from each other mainly in appearance and connectors.
Step 2
To find out what kind of memory your phone supports, contact your sales consultant when purchasing. Brief information about the phone and its functions, in particular the type of storage, is sometimes reflected on the price tag or the external protective film of the phone. If you got the phone as a gift, you can refer to the user manual that came with the phone. As a last resort, you can go to the official website of the phone manufacturer, indicate the model in the search bar and find full information about it.
Step 3
Sometimes flash drives come with the phone itself. To see if this is the case in your case, look at the phone settings to see if the removable disk is displayed there. You can also unplug your phone and check if the media is in its slot on the device. There is a possibility that the phone has a limit on the maximum memory size. Find information (in the manual or on the website) about which flash card of what size is most optimal for your mobile phone model.
Step 4
If the card is not included, you can buy it at a cell phone store or computer store. It is enough to indicate the desired size and type of flash card. You can also order a flash drive from the online store.
