This is exactly what laptop/smartphone producers are doing for last 4-5 years.
Worst part is that majority of the consumers are fine with it, because they DONT use this items for their functionality but to brag with them.
This is the legacy of apple marketing, they turned tech devices from gadgets to bragging toys.

Companies have gradually diverted from increasing quality to reducing expenses. Modern laptops come with soldered parts and plastic anywhere possible. Microsoft with Windows 10 also became an insolent and disrespectful software provider. Gone are the times when companies regarded customers. That's why I made a decision: I will never buy a modern laptop. Recently I became a happy owner of a Lenovo T530 with Windows 7 and I found inside an engineering and design masterpiece.
Quote from: LHPSU on December 01, 2019, 10:55:06That's Microsoft's issue, MicroSD is easily compatible with SD through an adapter, not the other way around.
Maybe NotebookCheck should put less emphasis on the camera and more on connectivity in its ratings? You know, don't be part of the problem?
My Gigabyte Aero 15 has RJ45, HDMI and full-sized SD (though I would actually have preferred a MicroSD one for easy transfer to my Surface Pro, or at least a spring-loaded slot), and most parts are replaceable.
