Why no 1Tb option on Note 10+? - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion

I wonder why no 1Tb option on Note 10+, like on S10+? Also that ceramic option sounds very nice, and yet still missing on Note 10+.

Maybe there will be in the future, even more colors

Were there ever such new "upgraded" models? I don't recall any... Colors maybe, but upgraded storage?

Do they make 1TB UFS 3.0?

They didn't sell many 1tb 10s. So they didn't waste their time.

I think that must be the reason as I think you are right, S10 does feature only UFS 2.1, not 3.0.

It will be in a few months,before christmas, for boosting the sales. It's my bet

You can add 512gb SD card, if you really need 1TB. I have 256gb SD card, where I store all my pics, 4k videos, backups and data , which leaves my phone memory free for programs only and actually I like that arrangement much better than having all 512gb on the phone: one of my previous phones completely locked up and wouldn't boot no matter what, had to hard reset it and lost all the data on it, but most of my important stuff was on SD card, so no big loss. BTW you could backup your phone to cloud, but not the amounts of data requiring 1TB phone, that would be impractical. I also think 1TB model doesn't sell too well, so for now they concentrate production on models that sell most, maybe later.

Well, I got 512 Gb version and added a 512 Gb sd card to it. I was just curious why S10+ had a version of 1Tb and Note10+ did not. UFS 3.0 is it seems the answer.

I've also added a Samsung 512GB Evo microSD to my 512GB 10+...however,
I'm using the internal storage as my primary and the external as a back up.
To confirm the Note 10+ is USF 3.0 correct?
The reason I'm curious is because some yt reviewers claimed that it wasn't 3.0... Which I thought was odd...

Which youtubers said that?

You could have proved it to yourself by running a storage speed benchmark, UFS 2.0 can't go 1.5GB/s like UFS 3.0 does.(read speed)

I agree with this. I use a 256 gb SD card which I have had since my Note 8. Have all my important stuff on the SD card, have all my apps on my internal storage. 256 card and 256 internal is more than enough for me. I have 2/3rds of my SD card full, but probably 80gb of it is MP4 movie rips that I could easily do without. My music and pics and other important documents (I use my phone for all my business purposes) are all on my SD card so I know I can keep that if the phone is fubared for some reason. Never had it happen yet (knock on wood) but will rue the day if SD card option is totally deleted on the Note line.

i bought the 512gb version as thats the biggest i can have , with only 111gb left and a full 256gb sd i need to get a bigger sd card , my phone is full of my fav tv shows from the 70's till today , dr who classics fill up over 160gb for every episode , my wife hogs the tv so my phone is my tv , least i can watch whatever i want.

Looks to me like you're prime candidate for USB OTG, All you need is NTFS file system driver, inexpensive 3 TB hard drive or similar, proper wire and you're set. BTW 160GB for 30-50 min show sounds way too much, even 2hr Blue Ray movie doesn't take more than 25-35 GB.

yup, go with external OTG drive, I've been using 2TB which can be formatted right in the phone, no special cables needed just that little stock USB A to C hooked up to the drive cable:

The more storage the better I always say. I was a little disappointed that there was only the 512gb option. I had to go get a 1TB SD card to compensate. I store everything on the phone. And I mean everything. Movies, shows, music, photos, documents. I always use my phone as my main computer. I use my pc to play games. For absolutely everything else (plus more games) I use whatever my current Android phone is. And it's really hard to use anything other than Samsung phones lately for their performance and storage capacities.

USB Pen Drive Readers

Has anyone any experience of these. I am about to start a course whereby I will be using lots of different computers and I would like to be able to make my MDAIII completely compatable.
Most of the time I will be able to use a pen drive between my PC and the new computers but if I have worked on the MDA in the meantime it would be brilliant to be able to transfer work immediately.
I have found some SD card readers in the form of Pen Drives which look like they would do the job. Presumably if I kept it with me and wanted to take files from computers (say work I had done in a school/college) or wanted to put stuff to the PC, I would just take out the SD card and pop it in the oen drive reader and hey presto.
I would really like some feedback from anyone using one or anyone that knows about them.
thanks so much
Catherine
I've been using the Iogear mini-SD pen drive reader for about a month now with a SanDisk 2GB mni-SD that I use on my Wizard. It works just like a regular pen drive -- no problems so far.
They do make a SD-friendly version, too; here in the states, they run about $10, so figure on paying about 5 pounds.
thanks
Thanks so much - I feel a little more confident that it may work now. I am so excited ( I know it is sad but it will give me total flexibility).
i have a sandisk cruzer sd read which is kinda as small as a pendrive as you can them
i also have another noname one which does as good a job
why don't you use your mda as a mass store drive, there is a programme that tels the pc you mda is a mass store drive.
maybe because you'd need to carry a disc around with you and install that program to every computer you want to get data from
I might be missing the point here but bare with me.
You have a MDAIII, it has a SD Slot, you are looking for a way to use the MDAIII as mass storage and are talking about a pen drive.
Well as you are carrying the MDAIII, why not put a SD card in it and use that in a USB slot as mass storage.
http://www.sandisk.com/Products/Catalog(1096)-SanDisk_Ultra_II_SD_Plus_Cards.aspx
No need for a SD card reader or the like with this model
Its a thought.
but that would mean getting new sd cards
i use this one it works well

No...there's a utility that you install on the PPC.
Edit: See here: http://www.softick.com/pocket-pc/cardexport2/
Basically what it does is give you an icon to tap which switches the PPC between ActiveSync and Mass Storage. Tap the icon before connecting then it identifies itself to the host PC as you have chosen.

I already use an SD card but my aim is to be able to easily transfer data between my MDAIII and other people's computers - without the need for any leads or cables or installing any software onto their computers. I am not talking about pendrives containing memory - just ones that look like pen drives but are actually card readers with usb bits.
You are right in that one of those would do the job - but as the Pendrive readers cost less than £5.00 (sterling) and give me the flexibility to use any SD card that I own or may own in the future it is a more flexible option. I will keep an eye out for these if I see them though - I hadn't realised they existed. They are a bit expensive at the moment at $70.
This is the kind of thing : http://www.sandisk.com/Products/Item(1220)-SDDR-103-SanDisk_MobileMate_SD_Plus5in1_Reader.aspx and this is the type I am getting

I am probably being a bit dim but my reader /writer has arrived and I can only do half of what I wanted with it. Can you let me know how you use yours?
I think the best solution for you will be high capacity SD card ( 2 maybe 4 GB) + freeware soft to change your MDA II into "The Most Expensive Card Reader". You have to upgrade OS in MDAIII to WM5.0 too.So you need a sync&charge cable.
Actual newest version of the soft is attached here

This won't do anymore for me than the oendrive reader I have just bought? I can now succesfully transfer files from my device to any PC I want with no software. What I can't yet do is save to teh SD via the card reader which I should be able to do (I thought)

Sand Disk 64GB For S3

Hi,
A small question - I have heard of many problems from people trying to work with a 64GB microsd on the S3.
Sould i buy a 32 or a 64 GB card?
A 64GB card may fail (thus burning my money)?
Is there a way to load files greater than 4GB and the S3 will read them properly - such as movies etc.?
Thanks!
32 GBs is plenty of memory and with 64 it will be definitely slower than 32

Me too, I've had a 64GB Sandisk card in my phone since the phone was launched and have never had a problem with it.
Any other comments regarding the speed?
does the card comes boxed with EXFAT format?
Probably yes AS this is the best FAT for 64GB. Speeds will be to the point that you should not put any APP data on it, photos will refresh slow (Due to MediaCollector having to scan whole 64GB).
It shouldnt be a problem in S3 with built memory, so go for it

Sent from my Sprint Samsung Galaxy SIII on TouchWiz 4.4.2 with Conquest: Singularity v2.2, Ktoonsez' latest kernel and the latest Philz Touch Recovery.
I bought the 64gb when it first came out and was priced at $300 lol. I got it on sale for $40. Talk about a total screw you fee for early adopters. Works fine. I have 30gb of music on it. I bought the Sandisk class 10 which seems pretty fast and have never had to wait. They even have a nice sandisk app that helps with moving files around between internal and external sd cards.

Why? If you do such a Statement you should also justify it.
I bought a 64 GB class 10 together with the S3 over 2 years ago. A need a lot of space, because a have a large music library.
So far there have never been problems or lags.

32 GB's memory is quite enough,if bigger,there would be more time to scan the whole disk.Would lower the speed.

Well, in my case 32 GBs aren't enough. As already mentioned my music library is about 30 GBs large. Therefore I need at least 64 GB.
And because I'm using a class 10 card, I almost doesn't feel a difference in speed between the internal memory and the sd.
Summary for the threadstarter:
If you really need a lot of space, it doesn't matter which card ist slower or faster. You have to buy at least the 64 GB card.
If you don't need that much and it doesn't look like you're going to need it in the near future, then you should of course buy the 32GB. You safe money and (a little bit) speed.

Best MicroSd Card? Samsung Pro vs Sandisk Ultra.

It's time to ditch my Sandisk at 48mb/s and upgrade. So...I'm wondering what is the best micro sd card I could get for this device? Two options I'm looking at are the Samsung Pro series with 90mb/s and the SanDisk Xtreme at 92mb/s. Is there anything better? Please share your experiences and thoughts.
Also does read/write speed affect how fast a photo is processed and video quality?
First.
Found a Samsung Pro 64gb 90mb/s on ebay for $15 bucks. Not bad when they usually sell between $60-$80 bucks. Hopefully I didn't get screwed. The seller did have a good reputation. I was going to share the link but it seems I've bought the last one.

Sorry I wasn't more clear. The issue is: you take photos and save to the sd card. Upon reviewing the photos you would notice they are corrupt (the grey picture of a mountain icon). They will also not work in a computer after this. The problem had been mentioned on these note forums and the note 3 guess?

I wasn't claiming a certain sd card brand name was corrupting photos, rather that the Note series appears to have an issue where any sd card runs the risk of failing.

I've had the Note 2, 3 & now the Note 4. None of them corrupted my sd cards. The only Galaxy series phone that did corrupt my sd card was the S4. It corrupted 2 of my sd cards. I think I just got lucky with the Galaxy Notes I've had.
Got my new Samsung Pro 64gb card. And I love it! No issues with pictures. Hdr photos used to take a few seconds to process. With new card it's instant. I've done a benchmark. It doesn't seem the Note 4 uses the full capabilities of the sd card speed. But it was a lot better than my Sandisk I've had for years and I found that is a class 1. Anyways its the best $15 bucks I've ever spent.
Samsung Pro 64gb class 10 (90mb/s)
My results for benchmark testing.
Note 4 Write speed ~50mb Read ~30mb
The card maybe a little overkill but at least it's future proof for devices that will take advantage of it. I've notice improved performance with camera and games that store data on the external sd card. The Note 4 internal sd is much faster. 160mb write, 90mb read. I've used A1 benchmark when testing.

Move apps to SD card? Adoptable?

Hi All,
I'm thinking of getting this phone, but I have a question or two.
I saw in a thread here that there may be issues moving apps to the SD Card. adoptable storage was suggested as the solution.
I was under the impression that HTC had disabled adoptable storage...is that not the case?
Also, when I tried it on my Sony device, some apps (GTA, iirc) complained that they needed an SD card to function. Is there a known workaround for this?
Essentially, I am concerned about storage in general. My current phone is rooted so it's not an issue for me right now, but I would not be rooting the HTC if I get one.
Any help / suggestions would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
DF

Oh. You're saying don't put apps on SD at all and just rely on internal?

23 GB of available internal storage must serve your apps...
SD card is anyhow much more vulnerable and intended for storing your DATA..
You might one day need to pull your sd card out..

Got it. Yeah, I guess I'm just a bit disorganised! I always like to have as much room spare as I can.

After formatting your sd card as a part of internal memory - it physically remains ext sd card.. (or you believe in miracles?)
Writing speed into the internal storage is about 160 MB/s when writing speed to your sd card is more likely around 30-40 MB/s...

write speed on your sd card varies 30-40 ... there are write speeds upto 70-80 on sd cards specially with sandisk extreme and samsung pro +
samsung pro+ here...

converting an external sd card to adoptable memory isn't advisable due to many reasons but still kept for users who has pushed their internal memory cap....
1) more chances of your data getting lost
2) you cannot read your card as a standalone sd card once its adoptable storage unless you format it back to external memory
3) speeds would vary still when apps are loaded from an adoptable memory
4) can't switch between phones the sd card unless you format it back to external memory again (this i doubt still)
theres a xposed module I believe that will allow apps to sd support.
my phone gets too hot using adopted storage with my 200gb Samsung pro+ and performance suffered so I quit using it
on a newer cheap phone with only 8gb storage I'm using the adopted and that don't seems to have the issues like the htc 10 of heat/ performance loss

Question Recommendations for direct transfer to microsd

Anyone have any first hand recommendations for a set up to transfer from the P6P directly to a micro SD? It's not something I've ever needed before so I'm a total babe in the woods regarding what would be best for this.
I plan on trying to use the phone to record a lot of footage away from any PC and would like to dump it to SD cards as I go to have a backup copy. I have a lot of 128gb microSD cards I use in my GoPros and drone.
Strong preference on "it just works" and is durable and not prone to user issues. It'll be attached to the phone and bouncing around in a running vest.
I'll be doing this during ultra marathons and will have no access to a PC for up to 30 hours (and some day up to 112 hours I hope as I want to try the Tahoe 200 or Big Foot 240) at a time. And it would help that it's braindead simple to do as toward the end of a race my mental acuity is a "tiny" bit less than it is sitting at my desk at home.
Anyway, my appreciation in advance for your time and guidance.
Just a thought here, and I'm not even sure it would work. But could you use your USB C to USB adapter and simply add maybe a flash drive? I'm not sure if you could map it to record directly to it though, but maybe you could transfer all your recordings?
I got a USB-C multi-port dongle for free off of Amazon years ago, reimbursed in exchange for an honest review. Has 2x USB-A 3.x, one full-size HDMI, and full-size and Micro SD slots. The particular one I got isn't on Amazon any longer. This kind of thing is similar although has even much more ports than mine. I used mine yesterday to transfer 200 GB+ of music and other files to the 6 Pro's internal storage.
My MicroSD card from my previous phone was in ExFAT format, so I had to buy Paragon's file system app from the Play Store in order to be able to read it on a Pixel (Google would have to pay Microsoft a royalty to add ExFAT support). Then I used the file manager of my choice, X-plore File Manager.

plug your microSD into this:

then that assembly into either this:

or this:

...of course the microSD needs to be formatted to work with the phone, or just reformat it once connected to the phone
OTG flashstick. Plug and play.
I use a .5tb to do "dirty" backups of my onboard SD card. Primary backup is always hdds.
Only issue is if it takes a hard hit it may take out the port...
Wow, thank you everyone for all the great information. I really appreciate it!
Just wanted to say that I ended up getting the below item. It's made of metal which isn't obvious from the images on amazon and has a surprising amount of heft to it given it's size. Feels solid with no wiggle to the usb c male plug on it. Comes with one of those thin string key chain connectors as well which didn't come apart when I tugged the crap out of it.
Plugged it into my Pixel 2XL and it 'just worked' which honestly surprised me, having never needed something like this I was expecting it to be a chore to set up. I was easily able to copy files, media specifically, directly to my microsD cards without any problems.
The one gripe I have is the SD card doesn't 'lock' in. It's not at any danger of falling out but it does not have that press in *click*, press again *click* to pop it out that my GP's and drone has. It sticks out of the device about 3/16" of an inch to give you enough room to pull it back out. Just out of paranoia I would likely put the phone in a ziplock bag during a run when it's in my vest just to make sure if it somehow did get knocked out I wouldn't have to dig in the bottom of the vest trying to find it.

Thanks again everyone.
This is what I have and use all the time direct USB C to MicroSD card reader. No extra dongles or long cables: C352 Type-C MicroSD Card Reader... https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07YGXR8N3
Really great to use when on vacation and downloading GoPro video to the phone, quicker than going wireless.
In 2014 I bought a Corsair 64 GB Flash Voyager OTG flash drive with Micro USB connector on one end (with a cap on it, which came with something to tie it to the main body), and a USB-A 3.0 connector on the other end. Looks like below. If I were going to buy a modern one I'd probably prefer one with a built-in cap again.
Edit 1: Actually, here's one with a cap and USB-A on the other end (second image), although I'd be torn which end to keep the cap on.
Edit 2: And now I see one with a cap for each end (third image).

Nice, that's a first world problem I have, I have both PC and Mac so I'm always having to throw adapter's on things to move stuff between them. A double ended one would be really useful that works with both.
