for some reason I am unable to submit url's. but today amazon is having a deal on memory including micro sd cards. head over to Amazon's deal center under the search bar it says "today's deals". click there. also Lexar has its 128GB micro SD card on sale for $73 from Amazon
hope this helps

Amazon are reputable and easy to deal with if there are problems.
I got a Sandisk Ultra microSDXC UHS-1 card with adapter 128GB
It's the fastest 128GB on the market at present, the 64GB has a faster Ultra Extreme as the poster above linked to, though I wanted the extra storage and have had no issues with the 64GB version of this card recording 4K video previously.
The tech reviews I read seemed to universally state the Lexar did not have the same write speed, which will be important for video storage. And there is not a big difference in price.
The 200GB are only just new to Market and are a stupidly high price at present, definitely not worth it yet.

Find me a major manufacturers website that lists a class 6 32gb microSDHC for sale at any price and I might believe it. Until then, I won't.

Why would you think it's too good to be true? How much do you think a 32gb would go for?
I bought a 32 gb scandisk from ebay for 29.99 and it works on everything EXCEPT my evo don't waste your money trust me
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
i wouldn't bother. it's most probably a scam. i bought two of them in the past. they are usually 2gb cards that are rebadged to make them look like 32gb cards. if you tried to put anything larger than 2gb, you get the corrupt card message.
Only reputable company to make 32gb micro sdhc now is Sandisk and there card is rated at class 2. So I would seriously doubt anyone else would sell them for $15 dollar unless we are in the stage where cards are 1tb and not gb. Just use common sense and you don't be victim of scams as you only empower them by doing so.
PS: ATM I'm shopping for real 32gb c4 or 16gb c6 so let's see if anyone else is welling to produce 32gb cards.
Well looking at the feed backs, almost all the ones regarding the MicroSD card were something like:
PayPal unclaimed - requested repayment. Could not repay via eBay, so cancelled
So yah, I wouldn't bother
Also, the seller claims it's class 6 which screams fake/scam
My question is WTF is Kingston and PNY with there own 32gb cards. At least competition would lower the price. I heard people were picking up Sandisk 32gb c2 for $50 of Verizon by scheming them as they still sell for $100 which is much lower than anyone else ATM.
BuyDOTcom (noob users can't post links) has a 3C pro 32GB microSD card for like $120. It's a class 4.
Other than that, I haven't seen much competition at all in this area.
I'm content to wait until later this year for more people like RiData and so.
this fake
98.9% Positive feedback
i have a question:
how does he get so many positive feedback on ebay ?
(i believe too its fake though ..)
I bought one of these from eBay, not from the same person though. It was a 32Gb Class 4, I got it for about £20.
I works fine in laptop card reader. Put it in my HD2, tried copying a large amount of data, which failed, now I have an 8Mb sd card!!
It may not be the way to go.
Here's an equation that I have calculated to help you out.
MC + E = NO
Where MC = Memory card
E = Ebay
NO = No
And now there's a sale on a class4 16gb microSD card:
http://www.buy.com/pr/product.aspx?sku=216757949
$34 bucks is pretty good. Just ordered one myself!
26€ not bad
Class 10 16 BG are on sale here in the UK

Well, many of the fake memory cards use host for storage, to fake the large capacity and fast access time.
So when you used it on your laptop, it actually stored all the data on your hard disk. Cool, you thought: it's all working.
Then you used it on HD2, which was impossible for the dodge hack, so it revealed its true nature.

Just installed the new card and swapped over my files. For smaller files, data transfer doesn't seem very different, but large movies definitely seem to transfer faster.

64gb micro sd - will it work and which is the best

I am looking to up my memory card to 64gb all data for the note relates to 32gb being compatible will a 64gb card work ?
if it will , can anyone suggest a suitable card I am in the uk so will likely use amazon
thanks in advance
I just ordered the sandisk 64gb from amazon uk. It works so head over to the accessories thread to find out more.
got a 64gb sanddisk it works on my s2,note and tab 7.7 ,wish they have 128gb now
Been using it in my Note for quite a few months now.
I got my SanDisk 64GB class 6 card from Amazon for £75, it seems the price have raised to £79. You have to format the card to FAT32 to work in the Note, the is a method to get NTFS working as well.
Here is a screen shoot, I swapped my internal and external sd around so I now have the 64GB card as internal storage.
Man i want one bad. 100 usd is not too bad. Soon as best buy has another sale I'm getting one. How did uu swap memory?

I second the 64gb Sandisk from Amazon. I paid $110 a few weeks ago but it's gone up to $139 unfortunately. The one thing I did have to do, because for some reason it kept disconnecting the card from my Win7 machine during a heavy copy, was to have it in the phone rather then a card reader during copying. I'm thinking that's due to the inexpensive card reader, but in case it happens to you, that's how I solved it!
just checked and they are 79 euro with free shipping I believe which is around 110 usd...

[Q] which micro SD should I get?

I have a moto g 2nd gen and I want to buy it a 64gb micro SD (formatting it to fat32 for it to work). I have 4 options, a Toshiba, a Kingston, an adata, and a samsung evo. Do you have one of these? Which one do you recommend?
Important is that it is a class 10 card,just because of the faster read/writespeed. I tested several class 10 cards (Samsung,Kingston,Hama,SanDisk) with Crystal DiscMark and the differerences were mostly marginal. I bought myself a Samsung because I could get it as a special offer. In official testings this card is mentioned to be one of the best.
The Samsung SDXC PRO 64GB is a little expensive but fast and therefore a good deal,also the SanDisk SDXC Card Extreme Plus 64GB. But in my opinion a Samsung Evo 64GB is doing a great job too and is a good choice.

Be very careful of the cheap eBay fakes SD cards..... buy Local and help your Local retailer(s) - o.k it may be 2x as expensive, but shop around and you can find deals

How many gb is your storage card and where did you get it from + price

I got this one a couple months ago for like 24 on a gold box deal. These things just keep dropping in price.
64gb samsung non-pro card for $27.88 from best buy because I wanted it immediately. Going to put the 32gb LG promo card in my wife's tablet.
I had a couple class 10 micro SD cards and just popped a 32gb one I had in. I think its a Sony card I got when they were on a flash sale on Amazon. They were pretty cheap though.

Kingston 128gb UHS-I I got it for 79 bucks from amazon themselves.
I use aTorrent, and it won't allow me to save my downloads directly to my SD card. I have tried formatting on my phone & on my linux computer. I have tried pulling the folders off of the SD Card, setting the permissions and putting them back on. I also have Root Explorer, but even root explorer fails to write permissions on the SD card. I tried term as root with a chmod 777 for the folders on my SD but that also didn't work... Any ideas? I'm getting a bit frustrated.

I currently have a good 64gb ultra from sandisk that recently died on me, can backup to pc but not write to it.
Just ordered Samsung 128 GB from amazon and hope it will live a long life like the sandisk did.
Never had a card die on me like the sandisk coz it was usually upgrading from a smaller size to a bigger one.

128GB Sandisk for $37 from Adorama when they had a sale
I looked at my needs for a micro SD for my phone.
Do I need Super Speed? No
Do I need a name brand? No
Do I need a LOT of space? Yes
Max space the LG G4 will recognize? 1TB <<< XDA Specs state only 128Gb (which is incorrect)
So I searched for about an hour to find the most space for my money with the highest customer ratings.
With this information, I found on ebay this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/252079496841?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
512 GB's for UNDER $20
A friend of mine told me that it wouldn't work as these SD Cards may come from the same factories that make them for PNY & Kingston BUT don't go thru the testing process. I thought... For $20, I can take my chances. It works.
I have ready every post in here, and no one is even close to what I've got.
The 1TB SD Cards were not as cheap, and they may need more time in production for all the issues to get smoothed out, but 512 GB's will do for now.
I travel a LOT to India, and as a Senior Tech Agent, I need to transfer Large files back and forth, keep large presentations with me at all times, and plus 512 gigs is awesome.

Best Micro SD Card for Note8

Hello guyz,
Can you please recommend me the best microSD card for our phone in 128GB or 256GB?
I am leaning towards Samsung Pro Plus 128GB or EVO Plus 256GB. Should I go for speed or size?
Also there is Sandisk Extreme with similar speeds and Lexar Professional with read speeds @ 150mb/s, but I'm note sure if these speeds are overkill for a Note8..
I would also like to know cause eBay has so many fake ones.
I honestly have had issues with every sdhc I've used except for the EVO's. I don't know about other Samsung classes but I personally would stick with genuine Samsung memory cards.
Sent from my SM-G955U using XDA Free mobile app
I've been using the 256GB EVO that Samsung was giving out for the Note7 promo. Been working great.
I lost my $32 for useless SD card
I wouldn't worry too much about speed, as you can install apps on the SD card (correct me if I'm wrong). I would go for size over speed.
Never had issues with the Samsung or Sandisk memory cards for mobile devices, I have used everything from 2gb cards to 256gb cards and I will be looking at the 400gb card as soon as Sandisk gets it to retailers.
Samsung EVO Plus Grade 3, Class 10 128GB MicroSDXC thats one i have in my Note8 and as i don't shot lot of 4k videos that speed is enough
400gb for the win chuck
sandisk 400gb. Note8 ready. get it ONLY from "ships and sold by amazon". never 3rd party.

Fastest is probably:
Lexar Professional 1000x microSDXC (up to 256GB)
Biggest size is probably:
SanDisk Ultra 400GB microSDXC UHS-I
Best price/size/performance? Probably Samsung Evo+ line of cards, based on the following (it's a guess, I have not benchmarked them myself):
https://www.pidramble.com/wiki/benchmarks/microsd-cards
Do not rely on only the manufacturers' ratings, they can be way off and sometimes read is fast, but write is slow (or vice versa). The most expensive is not always the fastest either. Further, some excel in big sequantial reads, others are a tad better in random read/write IOPS. Even further, Note8 card interface probably is NOT able to use the maximum speed out of the latest UHS-II cards.
And yes, do NOT buy on eBay, unless you are willing to gamble or really know what you are doing.
My experience with SanDisk
Hi,
I just bough an Sandisk microSdhc Extreme 128 GB, Class 10, U3 UHS-2.
I emailed Samsung about my Note 8 and they told me that it supports UHS-2 cards.
When running tests on phone I get MAX 60write 60read
Only on DiskSeed Test App I got 287 MB/S read and 37 MB/S write.
Any input?
I've had my 64gb SD card in my s5 before putting it in my note 8. I might be lucky, but I figured Samsung cards work best in Samsung devices, idk. But yeah, it's been about 3 years and the SD card is going strong.
Andddddd...itll probably break after this post.
Galaxy Note 8 has many options for microSD Card for it. Here I found much different Note 8 Memory Card.
Never had an issue with any Sandisk microSDCard. I have had a bunch of them and they all work fine.
I'm another using the Samsung 256 EVO that came with the Note 7 promo. It also worked fine in an S7Edge for a while before I got the Note 8.

Anyone know where to get this one at a better deal? When it comes to device storage I'm not as much concerned with speed as I am with size and having 400GB at your fingertips, on the go, is just pretty freakin' awesome.
Btw...for those looking for more speed, I happened to catch this video on YouTube the other day that explains what the different speed markings on the sd cards actually mean if anyone's interested. I found it to be fairly informative.
