SanDisk has announced a follow-up to their previous eMMC NAND storage at Mobile World Congress Shanghai. The iNAND 7232 parts use SanDisk's 15nm triple-level cell NAND, each with a 500MB to 1GB single-level cell cache to improve performance to SSD-like levels in smartphones. Sequential write performance is increased to 150 MB/s from the 125 MB/s limit of iNAND 7132.

While iNAND 7132 came in 16, 32, and 64 GB capacities, these new units will ship with 32, 64, or 128 GB of flash. It could signal a shift away from 16 GB smartphones and tablets, which have been maligned due to increasing storage demands and ballooning mobile operating systems.
