Any external SDCARD have much less speed compared to the internal one in all the devices I tested because of the crappy controllers the devices uses.
A USB OTG is not a patch, I use it a lot with my phones/tablets when I work and I need to exchange information with my customers, is very useful.
The exSDCARD is used to take down the device's costs, when I had my Galaxy S7 with 128GB (it costed a bit more than a 32GB), and I never had the need to use an external SD (even adding movies) and I'm a person that tweaks a lot my devices, changing kernels, tweaking the rom, etc.

I attached the USB OTG and didn't work with the Note.
In all the devices I had where USB OTG didn't work, was a simple problem in the kernel or something missing in the ROM, for sure something the Onyx engineers are doing something wrong.

I have diverse tablets and each one has its own purpose, I don't believe this device is for watching videos at all and for the case of the maps, I don't know how the Note could be useful without a GPS...
23GB for reading are plenty for doing whatever I like, if I need encrypted information, I use Boxcryptor.
