It wasnt until we were on a bus leaving neath over a bridge that 4G started kicking in and out. Upon entering Swansea 4G was fine. The Internet was actually so slow in Neath that the Wifi on the bus itself was faster.
So what im saying is it all depends on coverage and network.
I know that parts of the Sandfields in Port Talbot there are complete dead spots for the 3 network. This also includes part of the Beach and Seafront.
The cloud is not going to be reliable until these companies sort their act out and actually give the services they advertise.

4G isn't available all over the UK yet so that shouldn't be an issue.
MY VM mobile isn't the fastest even with HSDPA+ but I can still stream music completely fine around Glasgow. I have about 10 albums saved to the SD card just in case and using wifi I can download music from google to my phone so can still listen when in a tunnel or without a data connection.
All I am saying is no SD card slot on a phone isn't the dead end it used to be. Especially with in built memory being larger now. I remember my first Android device, a HTC Desire. That ran out of space very quickly.
