I have a Sandisk class 10 64GB works great

get the fastest and highest capacity your money can buy, on the Note 2 64gb is the limit of external memory.

Im using the 64GB class 10 and its working great. There is an extreme pro available but only comes up to 16GB which is a shame considering transfer speeds are 3 times that of the class 10 one.

64

you know, they with the older phones they always listed 32GB as the maximum, but when 64 came out it worked on many of them. I would bet money that when the 128GB cards hit they will still work with this phone.

16GB SD Card compatible?

I am thinking of getting this SanDisk Ultra® II SDHC 16GB High Performance Card found here:
http://apac.sandisk.com/Products/It...Ultra_II_SDHC_16GB_High_Performance_Card.aspx
How do I know if this is a cat4 or cat6 SD Card. Will I be able to fully utilize the 16GB SD card on the Elfin? Compatibility issues?
Anyway whats the largest capacity SD Card that the Elfin supports?
hi
i have kingston 4GB and is working in my HTC 3452
God please... you know what're writing
you need MICRO SD - no SD !
the biggest capacity of micro SDHC is 8gb and it's working fine
lol
Oh woops! So the Elfin uses microSD card lol...
In that case how does this SanDisk Mobile Ultra microSD card go with the Elfin. Is it a cat4 or cat 6 card?
http://apac.sandisk.com/Products/It...-SanDisk_Mobile_Ultra_microSDHC_8GB_Card.aspx
Or should I go for the Kingston one...,
http://www.ec.kingston.com/ecom/con...ack=http://www.kingston.com&ktcpartno=SD6/8GB
Does anyone know if the Kingston 16GB class4 microSD work with the Elfin?
I heard that the Elf can work with 4GB max, is the Elfin different? Are u sure the 8GB microSD is working correctly??
Yes, it works perfect. I am using 8GB for 6 months without problems. Theoretical, it can works with a 32GB card, but as jackolus said, there is only 8 GB on the market.
From what I've researched before purchasing the phone, it can support up to 32GB in MicroSD, the Elfin, not sure if the Elf does the same.
non-sdhc cards ended with 4gb
i don't know, if there are any special builded cards arround with 6gb or 8gb without sdhc...
up to 4gb there is only sdhc.
it was created to enable sized up to 32gb.
so every mashine, that can read sdch-standart should be enable to handle cards up to 32gb...in theory...
ELF should be enabled as well...
but i think, it's also a kind of politics.
it won't lasst more than 1 year from now on, then there will come a new sdhc2.0 standart or something else, and all the people must bye new mashines, phones and readers if they want to have space that's bigger than 32gb...
...i saw it in my crystal ball
Yeah Elf should support 32 G MicroSDHC cards.
I'm waiting for 16G to come out this month or next.
Running an 8G now in my ELF.
32G regular SDHC, not micro also came out this month.
I know someone using an 8 gig micro sdhc on their touch elf. I seriously considered buying one as I am only using a 4 gig micro sdhc however has recently decided to wiat for the 16 gig to come out. 16 gigs would be so much nicer on my phone then 8 gigs.
yes, 16gb micro sd cards work. http://www.mobymemory.com/micro-SD.asp
64GB

I believe that I have read somewher that 32 gig is the biggest for SDHC. Anything bigger will be a whole new class of card and will not be supported by our devices. By the time 64 gig is released, we will probably not even be using our current devices anyways. It takes to damn long for the bigger cards to come out.
I dont think we will see 64g till 2011
& thats when the new PS4 will be out too
for now enjoy the 16g card out in nov

I have Att Fuze
works great
Took longer then I was told, but it finally came in. Sandisk 16 gig class 2 Micro SDHC - I stuck in in to make sure it was real and sure enough - Just over 15 gig's registered on my device as free space. Now to fill it up. I am a very happy camper and it cost less then $100.00 Canadian - I am the first person in my area to get one - even most of the people at the local shops - "The Source", Almost every computer shop and electronic's store still say you can't get them that big, but I went in and showed them today - they couldn't believe it. Man, what are they doing working / running these shops if they don't / can't even keep up with technology. It's just too bad I had to wait this long. Oh well, I have it now and so far it works great.
Edit: I just uploaded my backup of my original four gig card and loaded it up on my device and guess what. It works great - Actually - Loading times are faster now for movies, Music and programs installed on the card. I am an even happier camper now.

32GB microSDHC - Will it work in TP2?

SanDisk ships 32GB microSDHC card for $200
Just curious what the actual limit is of our Touch Pro 2's SD card slot. Currently i have an 8gig in it, but want a bigger one. Thought about 16gig's but would like to put all my music on it.
Also, how fast can the sd slot go? Does it support class 6+ cards?
I believe the Rhodium can handle class 6 cards. but im not 100% sure.
Its max is 32gb.
I was gonna purchase one. But way back when i got my phone 32gb cards didn't exist lol
I've got a Sandisk Class 2 16GB at the moment and its absolutely fine
Pack full of music

Whats the best Memory card for S3

I just got my S3 (United States) and and tried 3 (YES 3) Lexar 32 GB Class 10 cards and every one of them have failed. I called Lexar, they say to have my firmware upgraded. Went to Sprint and verified everything is fine with the phone. The cards won't work in other phones at Sprint Either. Before buying another card I'd like to know from you guys which one out there will work with no problems, speed, and size is important for me. I know I'll be using more memory than the 32gb in the future. I called Sandisk and they recommended their SDSDQUA-032G Ultra 32 Class 10 and said it would work. Sprint says they know the Class 6 works in the S3.
I'd like more than 32gb. and fast write & Read speeds.
Can I get some great recommendations from you before I buy another piece of crap. Two weeks now and I still don't have a working card. Lucky I have Amazon prime membership.

I use a 32gb Sandisk Class 10 SDHC Card, this thing works. Problem with anything bigger then 32gb is that you have to use sdxc and this is only really compatible in fat32 or exfat, for both you have to format the card before inserting into the phone.
Try the SanDisk 32gb Mobile Ultra UHS-1 because it's cheaper than normal class 10 Mobile Ultra and just as fast, and I've been using it a while with no problems.
I am quite happy with my Sandisk Ultra 64GB SDXC. No issues at all.
What do I need to format

I would like the larger size. What would I need to format the bigger size. I wouldn't have a problem with that if I had some detailed instructions.
Thanks.
Sandisc Ultra 64gb micro sd xc1
Sandisc Ultra 64gb micro sd xc1 was my choice and its worked well over the last 4 years. Its the phone that has bricked after Little use in October 27/2016. Changed the battery it needed it. Now its bricked.
I have a SanDisk but I was told that SanDisk aren't good for Samsung S3's
Hello,
I'd recommend the Toshiba Exceria memory card, either with 16, 32 or 64GB. This card is a class 10 card with UHS 3. Although the S3 can't use the full speed of the micro SD, this is a well working combination.
Has anyone tried 128gb sdcard ?
I plan to buy,

I'm using a 128gb card from lexar on it and works fine..
(mine's the i747m just to clear it up...)
I have the SanDisk 64GB ultra sdxc or whatever it's called. It works very well with no issues and I have 1,000+ pictures stored on it with about 30 videos.
Quick question. Would a SD card and adoptable storage on a ROM be a good solution for the Samsung device?
Yes, a SD card is always good, especially for backups

[Q] Which SD Card to go with out of these 2?

Hi all,
I've currently been using a 16GB Sandisk Class 4 MicroSD in my Note, and that's filling up, and I'm planning to switch to a 32GB card.
BUT, there's 2 I'm stuck against choosing between.
This one is a 32GB Class 4 card by SanDisk:
http://www.play.com/Mobiles/Mobile/...0&searchtype=allproducts&ob=4&urlrefer=search
But this one is a 32GB Class 10 card by Play.com:
http://www.play.com/Mobiles/Mobile/4-/21619964/0/Play-com-32GB-Micro-SD-SDHC-Memory-Card-Class-10/ListingDetails.html?searchtype=allproducts&searchSource=1&searchfilters=ae63{Play.com}+&urlrefer=search
Which should I go for?
If you want more speed: Class 10
If you want more money: Class 4
I used a 32gb class 10 previously and now the 64gb SanDisk class 6.
While I did like the speed and filling up the new one took it's time, I do prefer volume over speed.
The 64gb gives me so few worries over space, and once my "permanent" media was on it I am in gb-heaven.
But then, to me the space was the priority.
If you have the need for speed, a fast 32 may fit you better, or you can wait until 64 gets fast.
Also keep in mind that you can buy a fast 32, a 2 dollar usb otg cable on Amazon and a big thumb drive for less than the price of a 64. But that is a clunky solution.
I prefer the big card.

Why dont yo go for a 32 GB Sandisk Ultra (Class 6) Memory card. It has a good performance.
If in any case you need to buy a class 10 card go for transcend/kingston or even Samsung
i suggest you to buy patriot class 10

[Q] ready to by a sdcard

For day to day use, you will see no difference on Class 6 or 10 ... if you plan to copy/move large files or music files on a regular basis, then maybe a little ... Will definitely not affect any performance like Camera app, etc.
And I still prefer 32GB Class 10 for now.
64gb C10

there's no such thing as too large of a mem card,
if u have the money then go for the 64gb C10
Does the Note come with a card already installed? I just ordered this morning but have 32Gb SanDisk. I was going to get 64Gb SanDisk and leave 32Gb in my Motorola Photon. If Note comes with card already installed, if lesser I will put that in Photon and sell it

hi,
no,i got my note 2 out of box with no sd card.Had to use my own.
good luck
Class 6 and Class 10 write speed in Note 2 won't be a big difference.
I found Note 2's external memory controller write speed capped at around 10-11MB/s
But for read speed, it will be a BIG difference.
I am using Samsung 64GB UHS-I Pro micro SD.
Having like 55MB+/sec read speed.
with my old Lexar 32GB Class 10 only got 13MB/s read speed.
So, if you concern of read speed, get fastest card you can afford.
if your main concern is write speed, get a class 6 or class 10 would be fine.
And don't get SanDisk ultra. it's known to have problem with Note 2.

I bought mine in Hong Kong for USD 95.
It's expensive yeah but it's the fastest 64GB micro SD you can buy.
It's good for you that you don't have problem with SanDisk Ultra but you can search for Note 2 + SanDisk Ultra.
It has a known problem, after awhile of use or the disk capacity reached certain amount.
Sometimes it will unmount the card or even damage the files in the card.
You can only re format the disk to solve the problem.
MANY people reported this problem. I don't know maybe trigger rate is not 100% but still not recommended.
Darkinners, thanks for your responds and suggestions (which I took and did a search, then some research!)
1. All of these complaints on SanDisk were about the 32Gb Card, not the 64Gb card. All the 64Gb comments were good.
2. The people with issues (both 64Gb and 32Gb) had formatted the card at exFAT, not SDXC. Mathamatically, I can pretty much figure out a.) why it will not write files over 4Gb and b.) why the 64Gb exFAT crashes after it fills over 16Gb! (Think about it, SIII is desinged to read/store 32Gb, not 64Gb even though it will format exFAT. And as for the kid whos computer would not read the 64Gb exFAT, i bet he has 32-bit machine?
3. All complaints were from Europe and blamed on a bad batch of cards (it happens). The one happy individual I saw got his card from Amazon, which is a ligit website. Just because the card says SanDisk, does not mean it actually SanDisk. Cheap forgien vendors use this lable to make them look legit?
4. The card you mentioned and the SanDisk are priced about the same, $59.99USD. I will get SanDisk and format either in phone or my laptop as SDXC and play for awhile. If it piss me off, I will return it!
Again, thanks for your input and suggestions!
