micro SD

Phone storage wafer

Micro SD is a tiny flash memory card format, roughly the size of a fingernail, used in smartphones, tablets, cameras, and other portable devices.

The SD stands for Secure Digital.

Micro SD cards provide expandable storage: My phone only has 64 gigs, but I added a 256-gig micro SD.

Also written microSD.
