Only iPhone users will be using LTE in the next few weeks, now that is a solution to a problem that does exist, android users do not have that option in the UK.

Screen size is not a feature, it's a choice.

Ok, there is no Memory Card Slot but how do card slots promote innovation such as Cloud storage Solutions.
I wonder what would happen if the Cloud Servers are down for a couple of days lets say and what about if the phone is damage beyond replair and the contingency plan Sd Card.
Or maybe your memory card fails!!!!!!

Cloud storage isn't innovation, it's a way for them to charge you every month forever for storage you could have permanently on your own.

Your point flawed. Phones with SD cards store data internal OR external so this is not a DR solution. SD cards make the whole process more complicated for average users because you can tend to have media of the same type in multiple locations. This not only makes backing up confusing but duplicates folders on the device.

I work with an IT professional who loves his SD storage for much the same reasons as I am sure you do. It didn't help him much when he needed to send in his phone for repair and lost a whole holiday of photo's because he thought it was backed up and on his SD card. It turns out neither we're the case.

I am not saying it is not a good idea but it has as many down sides as not having it at all.
