[Q] micro sd card

is micro sd card sandisk 8 gb class 4 good for apps?
if it be like the internal memory of the phone?

Hmm. i guess its ok. today i ordered Team 16GB class 06 micro sd for my SGS

I've read sandisk is not fully compatible with the sgs so it would be better to buy a different one.. kingston should do the work!

Is that so?
But what i heard was sandisk working like a charm with SGS. don't know for sure because i didn't use it

I've never used 'em too, but according to can't-remember-which forum sandisks work well at the beginning... sooner or later, however, they give some problems, like difficulties on reading/writing... after your reply I went to the forum again and read that probably you can encounter this problem only with android 2.1 or lesser so if you've got froyo you should be ok... sorry for causing confusion, just tried to help making things clear ^^
ps sorry 4 my english, but I haven't practised it very much lately

So what brand currently are you using ?

I have always used SanDisk cards in all my gear, have about a dozen of them. Never had any trouble.
In fact the very card the OP mentions (SanDisk MicroSD 8GB Class 4) is in my i9000 right now.

Samsung Accessories
I am using my data cable to transfer file from phone to PC. The transfer rate is low and was in search of card reader i can used it with my samsung phone card or will i have to purchase some other samsung accessories.

Maxflash micro sd rox

i use 8GB transcend class 2. works fine.. i stored all my videos included HD videos. works too good.. with stock froyo 2.2

Recently bought sandisk 32gb class 4micro sd card, no problems as of now noticed using froyo 2.2.1.

I've always used Sandisk, usually when I read about problems its non-Sandisk brands. I've had my Class 2 32GB card since a couple of days after they came out, more than a year now, no problems whatsoever.
You don't really need more than Class 2 in your phone, its fast enough for decoding and encoding 720P video, and I don't know of anything that would need quicker read/write speeds than that. If you can afford faster you'll notice a difference when loading stuff onto the card from your computer, but in the phone there won't be any particular difference in performance. I've benchmarked a non-Sandisk Class 4 32GB card (mymemory brand) in crystaldisk and its performance was better for reading (although again, the Sandisk was fast enough for anything you'd need to do in the phone), but its write performance was worse across the board, particularly when doing smaller or random writes (which for the most part is probably a better mimic for in-phone use than large sequential R/W activities). Whenever I've seen non-Sandisk ones benchmarked Vs Sandisk ones the Sandisk ones are always better within the same Class, and even above their Class, as I've seen in the benchmarks I did.

I definitely agree. The cost to performance of the higher class cards is not worth it.

Can somebody offer me a relatively cheap 32gb micro sd card? I bought one on Ebay, but it was fake (luckily i got my money back).

Kingston su**** my kingston microsd card (8gb 04) don't work anymore . . . i dunno why .

I'm using a SanDisk 4GB Class2 card and hard to reformat it twice in the last 5 weeks (somehow corrupted after reboot).
unfortunately I cannot tell you my exact rom version since I upgraded, but it was 2.2.1 on some doc rom with speedmod kernel.

Exactly the same card. Sandisk 32gb microSDHC
This is the listing on Amazon: "SanDisk 32 GB SD HC micro SDHC Class 4 Flash Memory Card with Everything But Stromboli (tm) Card Reader" 23.99+Free shipping. However it doesn't come with the regular adapter and I'm not sure if it comes with the "Jewel case." Whatever that is.

Ah ok, I couldn't find it in my initial skim search. But seems like a good deal as well. So it's about a buck difference. And the jewel case is just a clear case, nothing special.

Technically your title is right if you'd purchase two 64gb SD cards here is the 128 gb incase we all get extra Christmas cash http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00P3NMVVU/ref=mp_s_a_1_8?qid=1418130321&sr=8-8&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70

my link is fine, just chose the 128 from the size selection tab.
I updated OP , sorry for the confusion

Purchased
Bought it! Thanks man. I have a Samsung Pro 64GB (their top tier MicroSD) and I can't wait for this bigger size. Besides, I don't need that fast speed or durability that their Pro provides (it uses MLC). Besides, the EVO should last me longer than I would use it for anyways.

Does Samsung make the pro version of this?

I haven't been able to find out, I think this is their first 128gb

I think I'm gonna have to get one of these!

lol. 2 weeks after I bought the 64 GB and it still haven't arrived. I really should wait to buy something in future.
Hopefully the price will gradually down so I can get it later with great price

Other than the fact that its Samsung brand how does it compare to the Lexar 128gb micro SD card here:

Anyone knows how does this compares performance wise to the Lexar 128GB microSDXC card?
If anyone here has this Samsung 128GB EVO microSDXC card, can you run the CrystalDiskMark benchmark on PC, and also the A1 Benchmark on Android?

Mate 9 and UHS-1 micro SD card

Hi there. I've been using my Mate 9 with Samsung Evo 64Gb card without any issues. I ordered 256Gb UHS-1 version and it arrived today. Although it's Class 10 card, and UHS-1 require special hardware, but should work fine but at slightly lower speeds, I have a notification that says that it's a low speed SD card. I formated it, to no avail. Warning is still there.
Has someone else had this issue? If so, how did you resolve it? Thanks!

Did you get a genuine SD Card?

Everything I've read says you can add up to a 512GB SD card. What isn't clear, is that because that's the max size it will accept, or is that because at the time 512GB was the biggest SD card available.

Just did a quick Google Search. Granted that you didn't see the fact that the page only mentions a "SD Card" and not a "Micro SD Card", I did see this video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gv2j0KIzLLw
So, it looks like it IS a reality, yet this was dated back in Sept 20118. So it's just a matter of when it'll be released. But, it was probably inevitable, anyways.
Keep in mind, I didn't watch the whole video, just paused it when I saw the 1TB MicroSD Card on the screen at 0:07.

Dfwfreaks .. BS

I've always wondered what the problem could be with supporting more storage via sd cards. I mean it is just more storage after all, right? Like if you put a 2TB flash drive in your old PC which was made when the max was 512GB, it should still work fine lol

I'm no expert....
With that said, I'd say it'll work.
The same scenario has played out the same on past phones, exceeding the stated spec when the phone was released.
The 1TB Micro SD Card wasn't on the market when the Note 9 was released, 512 GB Cards were tops at the time, so, I'm guessing that's why 512 GB is the stated maximum external storage capacity.
I understand the hesitation on buying a 1TB Card w/o 100% certainty, as the current pricing on the cards from SanDisk & Lexar are north of $400.

There is a possibility that the Note 9 might support the use of a 1TB microSDCard. As when the Note 9 was release it was said to be able to support microSDCard up to 2TB.

@Arobase40 I didn't know there is a 1TB micro sd card other than Lexar wtf :d
