Mobile devices use a variety of storage types, but the most common are flash memory and eMMC (embedded MultiMediaCard).
- Flash memory is a type of non-volatile memory that can be electronically erased and reprogrammed. It is widely used in mobile devices due to its speed, durability, and small size.
- eMMC is a type of flash memory specifically designed for use in embedded systems, such as mobile devices. It offers a higher level of integration and performance compared to standard SD cards.
Some mobile devices may also use SD cards for additional storage, which are removable memory cards that can be inserted into a dedicated slot.
In addition to these primary storage types, some mobile devices might also use RAM (Random Access Memory) for temporary storage. However, RAM is volatile and loses its data when the device is powered off.
