    Samsung. Before I get dunked on let me explain. The Galaxy XCover 6 Pro is an industrial phone so it lacks a bunch of the standard bloat that comes with consumer grade equipment. It comes with 128GB onboard memory, 6GB RAM, SIM card slot, SD card slot, headphone jack, and even a removable battery! It definitely meets my need to carry around almost a TB of music and videos without needing to resort to streaming services.

      Hell yes brother! Same. It’s always nice when I’m on the bus or an airplane and I can just break out wired headphones. No worries about charging them, they just work!

      the xcover is a great phone. not the fastest or with the best camera, but the other features make it fantastic. it’s also pseudo-ruggedized, I carry it without a case and it’s held up great to a few typical drops and such

        Thanks for the tip! Gonna have to try it out one day. My problem is I have to go work in places with very spotty service without WiFi so it helps to just have everything on board.

          I see. I do too. Some apps (Tempo, Dsub, Ultrasonic, ecc) let you download songs/albums locally from your server. I have a 300gb music library; but my devices have only 256gb, so I just rotate the albums I have sometimes.
