I have the SanDisk Ultra 64 and its been nothing but problems. It will randomly corrupt files on my card, deletes all pics and videos and randomly unmounts. Have no idea what the issue is. The only way to get it to work again is copy what I can to my external hdd. Then reformat the card. it works for a couple weeks, then it does it again.
Unfortunately Amazon had no return policy on this card. I've been thinking of just ordering another or trying a Samsung card. But I thought SanDisk was the company to go with the memory card game. Who knew.
Anybody have issues with the Samsung card??

I have the Samsung MicroSD Pro 64GB card and it has worked flawless. Superfast transfers, no random unmounts or corruptions. It well worth the price.

ive had a 64gb sandisk since they came out and BB did the first 79.99$ sale. No issue's at all. Maybe you guys got a bad batch?
Yeah seems you guys got a bad batch got mine when amazon had "new - open box" for 18 bucks.
I have 3 sandisk 64gb card. One in my phone,galaxy tab 2, and in my galaxy player. I haven't had no problem.
I was one of the lucky folks who grabbed the 64gb from verizon when they had a typo (24.99) / I was fixed in less than 2 hours / I just happened to be snooping around XDA and found the tip (posted about 2 minutes before I got there). / No issues / However, I moved the card to my Nook HD for movies and stuff and have a 32GB in the S3. I will probably take the advice I see here and go with Sammy. Most likely, it's gonna be more compatible. Damn! This phone is getting more expensive every day, and I don't even have it yet [650 phone, 40 case, 60 memory, ugggh]

I got my 64GB SanDisk micro SD card on Monday, and it's been fine so far, granted it's only been a few days. The 16GB card I had in my SII worked flawlessly for nearly 18 months. Bad cards do happen, though...
I have used the 32 and 64 GB SanDisk Ultra microSDXC cards on my S2, Note, S3, S4 with no issues.

2. SanDisk Ultra 64GB $49

3. Sansung 64GB $65
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Electronics-microSDXC-MB-MGCGB-AM/dp/B009SK57ZQ/
I bought the Samsung card because it was said that it is the most reliable. So far no problems.
I have the Sandisk Ultra, no complaints.
i have the 2nd and 3rd cards you listed. both work very well for me. if you look around you can get good deals on the samsung card. i got one on ebay for $23. you do have to look out for counterfeits. luckily mine was legit.
I have the SanDisk Ultra 64GB in my S4 right now.
It works, but I'm getting sporadic "unexpected SD card removal" message followed by "preparing SD card". It seems like the card got unmounted and remounted by itself!
This usually happens whenever I open my Gallery. (I have set my camera to auto save images to the external SD card)
I'm not sure if it's hardware or software issue...
I bought the Samsung. It's very quick and so far has worked without any issues. Even formatted as exFAT.
Writes really are 20MB/s, though I topped out at 40 for reads.
I got this card reader to go with it: http://www.amazon.com/Anker®-Uspeed-Reader-Support-Warranty/dp/B006T9B6R2/
I used the samsung sd card at first, until it completely died! I lost all my backups etc. Now i use a kingston one. Just 8gb. Im still nervous this one will die too.

that's why you always have a backup on your computer :good: then you never have to worry again. redundancy can be a good thing

Best of both worlds:
- Samsung NAND
- Great price
I've used it w/both FAT32 and exFAT formats, and performs beautifully.
I have the Ultra, works great in my phone. Have all my music on it.
I have the SanDisk Ultra 64 GB. It's okay, but I had to RMA it with SanDisk a few months ago.

I ran across this article which tested the Sandisk Extreme card on a PC with USB 3.0, and also in a Samsung Galaxy S4 phone.
http://www.legitreviews.com/article/2232/3/
It turns out, the S4 does not take advantage of the increased speed of the Extreme card. Thus, it does not seem worth paying the premium dollars for this card.
Samsung 32gb
I have the 32gb version of the Samsung mini sd card and it works perfectly!
Finally, received mine. Check out the review @ 64GB SanDisk Extreme microSDXC UHS-I Card Review

Sure, Samsung cards have 10 years warranty.
I got a Samsung 32GB plus (UHS-i) in HK ( price 179HKD), the read/write speed from SD tools is about 19.8MB/12.6MB (my S4 is i-9505)
For your reference
First off, let me say that I have done a lot of searching, and I'm aware that the Samsung Galaxy S 4 has problems with some micro SD cards. What I couldn't find (and please forgive me if I overlooked something obvious) was a well tested micro SD card that is compatible. Mine stopped working and, as far as I could find, there was no solution.
Does anybody know of a cheap micro SD card that is at least 16GB and less than $20 that works with the S 4?
I use an 8GB PNY or Kensington (can't remember which) micro SD in my sgh-i337 Galaxy S4 with no issues. I also have one of the same micro SD brands above in my At&t Galaxy S3 and Galaxy S2.
I use a Microcenter's generic MicroSD Card in mine and have no problems, it's probably the cheapest card you can get since they are sold without packaging. If you have a microcenter near you they sell them at the cashier, I got a 32gb card class 10 for $14 (16gb for $8) and I have had no problems with it over the last year.
http://tinyurl.com/mfls87d
If you need fast transfer speeds I use a Samsung sdcard for my DSLR which gets around 80mb/s transfer speeds as advertised and they sell a microsd that gets 48mb/s for not much more than the microcenter one. You'll only ever need this if you transfer extremely large files. (I can't say whether or not this works with the s4, but since it's a Samsung brand can only assume)

Thanks everyone.
In my personal experience, I've had the best success with SanDisk brand MicroSD cards. I've been using a 64GB SDXC card (reformatted FAT32) since the day I got my S4 (at launch), and it hasn't faltered on me one bit (meaning 18 months and counting). I've also had success with them in a variety of previous phones. They're also reasonably priced and available just about anywhere that matters.
Got one of these ... http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00J2BSW9O?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00 ... works fine. Left it formatted as it came as the phone sees it as 64GB but Windows (XP Pro) would only see it as 32GB. If I plug it into a card reader that's a problem but if I browse/copy files via wifi it makes no difference.
So far very quick!

Hi guys,
Could someone please suggest a decent 128gb micro sd card for me to buy?
There seems to be a lot of fakes on EBAY.
I brought recently one but as soon as I save around 11gb of data, it starts going funny as in not displaying videos or photos. I get black icons instead of images and nothing loads.
Thanks.
The one you bought it's a fake. I bought one off Amazon when they first came out. It's a SanDisk. Buy it from someone you can trust. And if the price seems be too good to be true, then it probably is.

At Amazon UK the real 128GB cards are about £80-90.
When I bought mine I got it for $119. That was last year. But I tested it and it is a real 128GB card. Here is where I got it.
SanDisk Ultra 128GB MicroSDXC Class 10 UHS Memory Card Speed With Adapter (SDSDQUA-128G-G46A) [Old Version]
But they have updated it to a newer version for less $$
SanDisk Ultra 128GB UHS-I/Class 10 Micro SDXC Memory Card Up To 48MB/s With Adapter- SDSDQUAN-128G-G4A [Newest Version]

That one is pretty slow for a big card. I would consider a different card or a sandisk exptreme pro
When I bought mine, it was the only 128GB card on the market
They also sell the Samsung Evo 128Gb micro sd's on amazon. This is the one im buying for Christmas. This is the link: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-128GB...419061745&sr=1-3&keywords=128gb+micro+sd+card
Either or!!! Can't justify spending $100+ to gain a little speed over my Old Version 128GB SanDIsk. Not sure if I can benefit from the speed upgrade. Probably could go to a smaller faster card, I am only using 30GB of this one.
Appreciate all your replies guys! Thank you.
I will order one of the SanDisk cards from Amazon.
Hey guys,
I was thinking of buying a micro SD for my Edge, but I don't know which one to buy.
I have narrowed it down to two:
Samsung Pro 64GB
Samsung Evo 128GB
Unfortunately, I could not find a Samsung Pro 128GB. I guess they don't make it.
Since I'm using a Samsung phone, I'll like to strictly stick with Samsung.
Is the extra speed on the Pro 64GB worth it, or is it better in the long run to have double the capacity but less speed?
What are you opinions about this?
How do you all feel about more memory less speed, or less memory more speed.
Thank you.
Personally, I would go with speed over size. If I could, I'd trade my SanDisk 128 in for a pair of fast 64gb disk.

I was just at my local Best Buy and they had them in stock. I picked one up for $100.00 bucks. I had a really nice 64 gb card that I bought when they had them mislabeled, i got it for $50 bucks but they are retailing them for $199.00 I needed more memory. I also looked on SanDisk site and they now have a 200 gb micro sd card.
Yea theres 256GBs now...I got one already and it works great. I had the 128GB and the 64GB before...Samsung is now taking this option away as well as removablw battery. And they put a smaller battery in the Note 5 as well as didnt put out a 128GB model as promised..
Just 32 and 64 with no SD slot...they screwed up bad...Im heartbroken
The largest card ive seen on the Sandisk site is a 200GB.
After doing some research, I stumbled upon this card - which, as far as I can tell, is the fastest card on the market. I can't find anything else that claims to have read speeds of 150MB/sec, and it isn't that much more expensive than other 64GB cards out there.
I'll be receiving it on Monday. If there's interest, I'd be happy to run some tests and post the results here. A 128GB version will eventually be available, but it took months to get this card in stock - hard to say if BHP's September 10th estimate is going to be accurate or not.
Yeah please run the test
I might buy the 128gb if it is good
I got a Samsung Galaxy s5 gold. My old 32gb card is full. I purchased a Samsung evo 64g card off eBay but it turned out to be a Pos. Is there another brand out there that is trustworthy and works great that's fast etc...?

You do realize that this is faker than Milli Vanilli, right? Apart from saying "Ultra" on the packaging but "Extreme" on the card, the cheap price is a dead give-away. A Sandisk 128gb microSD card will be $85-90 minimum, more for higher data transfer speeds.

Go with Amazon, unless Wal*Mart's prices are the same. Amazon usually has the best prices, and they can definitely be trusted as long as you're buying directly from them or the purchase is "fulfilled" by them.
Went to Best Buy and got a Samsung Evo 64 gigabyte $30 I'm still having problems... I took my old SD card copied it all to my desktop in a folder. Then plug in phone with new card format using phone and then drag and drop but the folder DCIM with all my pics and videos transfers half way and than an error pops up saying the phone disconnected or something. I have tried using the ten different card readers I have and many times Windows Vista or Xp says Windows cannot read card w/o formatting which does NOT work.
Got it working. Using the adapter that came with the microSD card
I'm of the opinion that eBay is not a good place to go for SD cards. I'm using a Samsung Evo 32 GB card (purchased in-person from MicroCenter) in my Avant and it's been trouble-free.
One thing to watch out for if you're using a card reader on a PC: make sure it can handle MicroSDXC cards.
