Android devices (almost all, but certainly the famous ones like Samsung Galaxy Tab, Lenovo Tab, Asus...) have expandable memory where you can transfer files from and to in many ways and across all operating systems that your PC might have, but most notably this standard way:
1. Connect the tablet/smartphone to PC.
2. In the tablet/smartphone, press Allow or Accept (to the PC's attempt to access your tablet/smartphone).
3. On PC, automatic recognition of a new volume follows. Open the file browser to see the volume and perform any operation there you like.
4. If the tablet/smartphone has internal memory+expansion card like microSD, both will show up in PC.

There are lightning / USB sticks for Apple products that can used for backup. Stick the lightning end in the i-device, copy files to it, stick the USB end into a PC, read or copy files off.
I've never been an apple fan. But one thing is making me more interested now. I've been disgusted with the lack of security updates that most Android devices get. Apple is far better at timely and continuing updates. I still use Android for entertainment and reading. But I got an iPhone SE to use just as a phone and run my banking app.
