Looks like we’re one step closer to getting phones with 1TB storage capacities. Samsung has just announced it’s going to begin offering the first 1TB embedded Universal Flash Storage (eUFS) solution for smartphones, allowing 1TB of storage in a single flash memory chip. Mass production of the new storage chips are already on its way. It has the same package size as Samsung’s 512GB unit but has read speeds of up to 1,000 megabytes a second, which Samsung says is 10 times the speed of a typical microSD card. Right now, Samsung’s option of bringing 1TB storage into a phone was with the Galaxy Note9 support a 512GB microSD card, which can be used alongside the 512GB model. With this new chip though, users will have 1TB onboard already. Some are speculating this could make its way into the rumoured high-end model of the S10, which is said to also have 12GB of RAM.
