Misc.

The official specs page & backside of packaging claims up to 32 GB (micro)SD cards can be used.[1] With only KaiOS on this device a 128 GB card by Kingston (SDCS2/128GB) got recognized with 116.45 GB usable space by KaiOS after a msdos (MBR) partition table and a single FAT32 partition was put on via gparted. A similarly prepared 512 GB card by SanDisk (SDSQUAC-512G-GN6MA) lead to a bootloop; rebooting after the Nokia logo.
