Nano Memory (NM) is a proprietary memory card format developed by Huawei in 2018. [1]
NM cards are the same size as a nano SIM card, so they can be used in the same slots as nano SIMs. [2] They are smaller than micro SD cards, freeing up space and reducing weight in smartphone designs. [3]
NM cards utilise the eMMC 4.5 protocol [4] and operate with read speeds of 90 MB/second. [2]
As of 2021, the cards were only supported by Huawei phones, however they are also manufactured by Lexar. Available sizes are 64 GB, 128 GB, 256 GB, and 512 GB. [5] They are more expensive than SD cards. [6] [7]

MultiMediaCard, officially abbreviated as MMC, is a memory card standard used for solid-state storage. Unveiled in 1997 by SanDisk and Siemens, MMC is based on a surface-contact low-pin-count serial interface using a single memory stack substrate assembly, and is therefore much smaller than earlier systems based on high-pin-count parallel interfaces using traditional surface-mount assembly such as CompactFlash. Both products were initially introduced using SanDisk NOR-based flash technology.
Lexar International is a brand of flash memory products, formerly American-owned, now manufactured by the Chinese memory company, Longsys.
