Anyone notice how tight the microsd card is with the battery?

[akito77]

Not sure if anyone who is using a micro-sd card has noticed, but mine is really really snug against the battery. Whenever I take the battery out, I'm afraid it'll snap my sd-card in half. The sd-card is definitely pushed all the way in. Looking closely, it seems like the edge of the sd-card is not exactly flush with the plastic around it so it sticks out a tiny tiny bit into the battery area. The battery is definitely pushing against the card as it's harder to insert the battery in with the sd-card also inserted.

Is anyone else seeing this "issue"? (fyi, this is for the moto e4)

yeah, same here! luckily I haven't needed to remove the battery yet.

Mine is very very close to the battery also, but since the battery comes out from the bottom first, you shouldn't have any issue with it damaging the SD card.

not here. it's fine.

By me it's fine also

While mine does seem very tight, I can confirm at least on my unit that the micro SD is not at risk of damage. That's after I put the battery in a few times very carefully to watch where it contacts the SD card. It is very snug, though.

I actually did a few "aggressive" removal and installs of the battery a few times to test this and my SD card still works fine so everything should be good. If it ends up bothering you too much you could actually use a fine grit sandpaper paper and file down the end of the SD card a little bit.

Mine seemed fine when I used an SD card for rooting on the US version (XT1768). Do you have the international version (XT1760)? I've seen reports that they are a bit physically different.

I have the US version. After a couple weeks of using the phone, it now seems like the battery is not as snug against the sd card as when the phone was new. I had taken the battery out and reinserted it several times over the weeks as well. Perhaps things have been "broken in" now.
