Help concerning Galaxy s21ultra

I'm curious about the external transfer of photos and videos via the OTG connector attachment that came with my s8 and attaching a sd memory card reader.  Is this as good as the internal storage or sd slot on the physical device?  Reason is because the 256 and 512 gb s21ultra are constantly out of stock, however the 128 gb device is available.  I appreciate any help and feedback concerning this issue.  Also when ordering a phone online through the brand company, how does trade in work?  I have a s8 I'm wanting to trade in but I will need it until I receive my new phone.  Sorry for all the questions never done trade ins and the s8 was my first phone.

Re: Help concerning Galaxy s21ultra

I have a S21U. I connect my sandisk 1Tb flash drive to the usb-c jack of the phone and transfer files using the samsung file app on the phone. Works fine. Everyone I know pays for extra cloud space which is silly unless you really need it. Most people dont need to pay for no stinking cloud... For sharing photos i upload to my 15gb free google drive and share a unique link with friends and clients, and tell them how long the pics will be available on line. You can also set up a network drive at home and share links to pics that way, as well as back up the files on your phone via WiFi.

You get your new phone and you have two weeks to send in your old one. Samsung cust svc is pretty good.
