They are, but mostly in budget phones. If you want a flagship camera or processor as well, you're sadly out of luck. And god forbid you want a folding phone.
Which is pretty stupid because you'd think that it would be really logical to have a way to have plenty of storage for those flagship cameras which would fill that lame ass basic storage... I mean do those flagships have more than a TB of storage? I'd think not most models.
I would bet money that phone makers such as Google keep storage low to steer people towards their cloud storage options.
They aren't really even in budget phones anymore. When you don't want a notch and want a headphone jack there is almost nothing to choose from: https://www.gsmarena.com/results.php3?nYearMin=2023&chk35mm=selected&sFormFactors=1&sOSes=2&idDisplayNotch=1 :/
