best micro sd card for the note 9 - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories

best micro sd card for the note 9 - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories

Hi guys, I'm thinking of getting the Samsung evo + u3 128gb or the sandisk ultra uhs-i 200gb.
Which of these cards would work perfectly for the note 9? I have read from somewhere that the note 9 can't fully utilize the speed of the Samsung evo +.
I would like to store my media on the card and 4k footage recorded should be stored directly into the card.
Thanks for the input.

I'm using the Sandisk 400GB and it's been flawless so far.

Go for a Samsung Evo + class 10 high end card. I have a 65 gig one and transfer speed and durability are excellent. They're only 20 bucks. I've had many problems over the years with other brands.

I have the same Sandisk Ultra 128GB Micro SDXC that I've used since I had my S7 and it works great. Only $27 on Amazon.

Same here, I use the Sandisk Ultra 128GB

I still use the 256gb Samsung that came with the note 7, works like a champ. I am waiting for the Samsung 512gb to come out, so I can have the 1tb total.

Thanks guys for the recommendation. I finally pulled the trigger on the Samsung evo + 128gb. Been using the same sandisk 64gb since my galaxy s3 days ( about 7 years) just need to upgrade the size . 128 + 128 in total seems about right.
However, the Note9 can't achieve the ideal speed of 90mbps write speed for this card.

If you have the extra cash I'd jump on this one right now. I'm using it and it's performing flawlessly.

90mb is about 11MB/s. Read will always be faster. Write takes longer. It is 2018 and I don't understand why people still don't understand this. But there are many people that believe the Earth is flat in 2018.

I guess you all missed the 400GB Sandisk for $99 on Amazon. I was trying to hold out for Samsung or SanDisk to come out with their 512GB micro SD card but realized it will probably be 12-18 months before price comes down to a palatable level so I settle for the 400GB for $100.

Best???? Well the 256GB HyperX Gaming uSD card... But only by a tiny margin (Claimed speeds: 100MB/s read speeds, 80MB/s write speeds):

Yeah that's actually a great deal. I think it's even marked down and it's Black Friday so...

Also have this one and love it

Also, using Samsung Evo 128.

Wish i could have purchased the 512 gb samsung sdcard on their website with my note 9, not fair why we cant get one for that same price for early preorders

Just curious, and to get ideas, guys. What reasons do you have for getting such large SD cards, perhaps lots of photos/videos? Currently still using my old 32Gb SD card from my Note 4 and still works well for backups and photos, plus w/ the Note 9's 128Gb, I've barely reached half. Where do you guys use it for, perhaps I may find some more usefulness for it and get a new, larger one. Thanks.

Exactly that. Videos, photos, music and documents. I rather have it on my device than access through the cloud.

Some people just consume more media and need more space for media than others. Games these days are also quite heavy for storage so they can eat up your internal pretty easily. And just to add to what @DarkManX4lf has said, some users would rather not be at the mercy of data coverage to access cloud storage. Having your media and other files on hand 24/7 regardless of data/WiFi coverage is a valuable option.
If your usage habits currently don't necessitate the use of a large Micro SD card then I don't see the point in replacing the one you have now.

I now use my cell more than my desktop/laptop. I can go an entire week or so without getting on there. So between it being my main computer at home, work, car, etc and also needing extra space for Gear VR games/media, the larger card is well used.

I had read somewhere that there were some 32 GB cards on ebay that were fake, sorry I can't recall the link. Looking at the photo enlarged of the card, the pixels from the "32" look much more clear than the "GB". But that's just my opinion.

...and there is no class rating on the card so if it were for real it'd probably be just a Class 2. Still, for only $17.00 including shipping I'm inclined to get one and run it through some tests just to satisfy my curiosity.
The seller has decent feedback, but it's mostly for jewelry and the like. If I had to guess I would say that they are probably rejects that corrupt data or are really fragile or something that someone pulled out of the garbage at the factory and took home.
Still...

Beware of new 32Gb sd cards!

Guide viewed: 2228 times Tags: Sd | card | sdhc | 32gb | 32 gb
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Most SD Cards on Ebay with a capacity of 32Gb that cost under USD $60 is almost surely fake. The biggest problem is that the card looks like the capacity is 32Gb and works properly until more than 2, 4 or 8GB are used.
This cards are programmed to look like their capacity is of 32GB, however after the user passes the 2,4 or 8GB that the card really is the data starts to become corrupt, as data is overwritten.
HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF:
Firstly, check the verification numbers that the sd cards have, such as Very flash from kingston. If the card does not pass the test it is surely fake. In this case ask the seller for a refund ASAP.
Sometimes the only way to verify if the card is real is using a specific software. The software is called H2TESTW and it writes data on the card and verify if the data is not overwritten as the card fills up. Another important thing to notice is the writing speed that can also be fake, as some class 2 cards are sold as class 10.
Summing up, when buying a 32Gb sd card cheap almost always means fake. Try to look the price that well established sellers are selling, and try to understand the minimum price. If good sellers sell it for $100 and some new sellers sold hundreds of cards for $25, be sure that hundreds of people been scammed with fake capacity cards.
Even good suppliers can sometimes receive fake cards mixed with good cards, especially if their distributors are located in Shenzhen, the center of electronics in China, that also happens to be the center of fake electronics.
Good luck and remember to always use paypal when buying the sd cards for increased safety in case they turn out to be fake. Happy shopping!

I just got burned on a 32GB card on ebay, after a couple 100 MB the format would get corrupted. I placed an order with newegg for Class 10 Patroit mcro SDHC card for $99. I disputed the payment with paypal today and sent an email to the seller that he had 24 hour to refund my money before I would give him negative feedback. Beware in buying anything from prasath200 on ebay

The auction I linked to has ended...i think before it was supposed to end. Maybe they made them take it down...
Anyway, that Patriot card looks like a good investment. I watch a lot of video on my phone...how much smoother would file loading and playback be if I went from the stock 16GB class 2 card to that 32GB Patriot class 10?

I've been running the Patriot 32gb Class 10 micro sd card for the past 2 or 3 weeks, and i'm loving it... Yeah $100 for a card is alot, but if you need the space it is well worth it for the space, and speed... blazing fast night and day difference between even a class 6. Newegg usually sells out QUICK, even within an hour of showing in stock on their site. Best bang for your buck in a 32gb class 10 micro sd I've seen..

Out of curiosity - What do you use the space for?

I use my phone as an mp3 player too. So I have alot of music on it, back ups, and roms take up a lot of space also. No such thing as too much space.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App

I never use that much space

I use an application called audio galaxy. Now I never have to go through the hassle of transfering music to my phone/mp3 player. Leave my desktop on like always and stream, stream, and stream. Now I have lots of room for other stuff

LOL I am going to stick with my 16 GB considering I didn't even cap the 2 GB that came with my hero

Speaking of HTC (in the Mesmerize forum, I know)... my friend missed out on the free Mesmerize deal that I got so he ended up with an HTC Desire. That model hadn't been on the market THAT much longer than the Mesmerize, but it only came with a 2GB card. Granted, I had a 2GB card in my Motorola Rokr and it held a surprising amount of music... but it wasn't a smart phone and a 2GB card seems pretty skimpy... especially since the onboard RAM in the Desire in much less than the Mez in the first place.

I think we should sticky this thread.

32GB MicroSD Reviews

So i recently bought this microSD card:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...NaB1JX0%3D&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK:MEWNX:IT
I was really excited that 32GB cards had gotten this cheap and for a class 10 one I was ecstatic!
Turns out it was a dupe and the drive is not only slow as a turtle, it doesn't really hold anything. (put 10GB of stuff on it and after the transfer was complete I went to the phone and only ~5GB of stuff was on there)
Also the adapter that came with it doesn't even work with it, it only responded to my phone (whereas my trusty 16GB from Dane Elec worked fine in the adapter).
Here's the comparison of my badass Class 2 16GB and the ****ty "Class 10 32GB"

Basically avoid any microSD sales from a user named: soundguyzbb
and I'd say it's safe to say that any microSD from the manufacturer titled "memorette" is bogus as well. I will attempt some of the other 32GB cards in this price range to see if there are any real ones.
This one will be going back for a refund tomorrow morning, I'll update if I find anything good or bad with my further market study

Excellent. Just plain excellent.
You. Just saved me $30
Bravo.

Doing some digging around I found Memorette looks to be a good company but if you notice their highest capacity on their own website is 8GB
The ebay ones all look generic and certainly different then the real deal, scammers gonna scam!

Idk but I just won a Class 2 ADATA 32GB card, I know they are a good company (I run an 8GB Class 6 SDHC in my camera from them and it's great) and am crossing my fingers I'll get another surprisingly fast card like the DaneElec 16GB.
Only cost me $40.03 with an auction, I saw some other brand name ones for $44, maybe slightly less. I'll be sure to make a review of the ADATA when I receive it. Ebay says it will be here between the 14th or 15th

82$ for 32gig card is crazy!

Ebay put out an article to watch out for fake sd cards. Too bad you missed it.
I went with the 32gig class 10 lexar on amazon. Works great, amazingly fast transfer speeds!

i'm not complaining at that price, considering i have about 4 of the 16gb cards that the phone ships with

I had the same issue. Got one from ebay, real junk. Gonna wait till Best Buy has them on the shelf a couple months before I dive in again. Right now they still don't stock them. They keep saying "coming soon"

I paid $99 for my 32GB class 2 SanDisk microSDHC from Verizon when they first became available about a year ago. It's easily as fast as my 8GB class 6 ADATA which I bought from Newegg. I did some benches on it when I first got it and was really impressed. I'm sure I posted them here...
Anyway, I never buy memory cards on ebay. It's too easy for people to fake capacity and lie about speeds. Plus a high quality card with a low class rating in my experience is much better/faster than a low quality card with a high class rating.

Cheap 32GB SD Card

It's a Class 4, but thought I'd post it anyway in case someone wanted it. $18 is a damned good price.

Amazon also has cards for real cheap. Around the same price as frys. Their 64 gbs got real cheap too (70 bucks now). Might try to pick them up soon.

Yes. I always go with the statement "the class is about the speed of the card". So you want the highest class possible. I suggest, in a mobile phone, so you don't really experience any lag when playing music stored on the card, you'll want to have a class 6 or higher. I always go for a class 10, if I can.

I've had 2 cheap sd cards die on me...
Exact same symptoms both times... First notice that some of my installed (on SD) apps are showing up with a shadow icon after a re-boot, fixable with a dismount and remount of the card, then it happens to more of the apps, then within a week or 2 the sd card reports itself as "blank or unformatted" Once it got to that point they couldn't be formatted by any device I have...
From first symptom to dead card was about 3 weeks or so total both times.
I'll cough up the extra for a decent card this time.

From what I understand, the phone hardware and/or rom may limit how high a class can be used. On my old HTC Aria running CM7 there was no point buying anything higher than class 6 (I used a 4 with no problems). I don't know if the skyrocket or ICS have the same issue. Still, you're not likely to notice much of a difference at class 6 or higher (depending on how you use it).

I've had a Class 2, 4, and 6 (w/UMS-1) micro SDXC cards. They were all retail packaged Sandisk. On 4 different Galaxy phones (Galaxy U, S, SII, SII Skyrocket) and one external usb reader, the transfer speed was 3.8MB-4.5MB when transferring large files. Classes didn't seem to matter on the Galaxy phones or the usb reader I had. Looking at the results of my test, I'm glad I didn't buy a 64GB micro sdxc Class 10 for double the price as it is telling me that I probably won't be seeing any speed improvements with it. I think part of the reason why it is so slow is that I'm transferring from a USB external to my USB plugged in device. But that is almost always going to be the case with me.
It would be nice to see UMS-1 compatible Galaxy phones in the future.

Tempted to get a 32gb one. I keep having to delete image backups when testing out 5 different ROMs at the same time :silly:

I had an issue with my Skyrocket and SD Cards a month or so back. The phone would take 4-5 seconds to wake up when I pressed the power key. I had a class 4 16GB Wintec MicroSD in there. When I took the MicroSD out, the phone jumped right back to normal.
Has anyone else had this problem, and more importantly, has anyone else using a Class 6+ MicroSD noticed lag time between waking the device and the display coming on? I might have to go get myself a Class 6 (if not Class 10) MicroSD if everyone's had good luck thus far.

Yeah the USB Adapter benchmark was giving 20/11 so I was surprised when my bro sent me his benchmarks and it was higher (I was thinking it was the benchmark itself) but I guess I overlooked the internal SD.

Lexar 128GB MicroSDXC Memory Card - Quick Look

Here is a quick look at the new Lexar 633x 128GB MicroSDXC Card which was announced by Lexar. There is finally an alternative for people who still have a sour taste in their mouths from previous experiences with SanDisk cards. It even comes with a USB 3.0 MicroSDXC reader. As of this moment, Amazon.com LLC, Adorama, and B&H Photo are the only authorized retailers for this card in the US.
Card is Made in Korea

Product Highlights from the manufacturer:
• Premium memory solution for sports camcorders, tablets, and smartphones
• Quickly captures, stores, plays back, and transfers media files, including 1080p full-HD, 3D, and 4K video
• Leverages UHS-I technology for a transfer speed up to 633x (95MB/s)*
• Stores more than 15 hours of HD video; 33,000 photos; or 28,000 songs**
• Includes high-speed, Class 10 card and USB 3.0 reader
• Limited lifetime warranty for card and one-year limited warranty for USB 3.0 reader
I saw it on sale a few weeks ago on Amazon and decided to pick it up. It arrived today and I ran some benchmarks for your viewing pleasure. Do note that you will not see these speeds while it is inside of your Note 4 as none of these phones are capable of these high read and write speeds. I've included the A1 Benchmark (in phone).
As you can see, the read speed inside the Note 4 is only half of what you'd get with a UHS-I compatible USB 3.0 Card reader.
I would certainly consider this the better card for only $10 more than the SanDisk Ultra, especially if you consider that the Lexar has superior speeds, a free USB 3.0 card reader, and a better warranty. It's not fast enough for 4k on the GoPro 4 Black (due to the lower write speeds), but it's definitely fast enough for 4k on the Note 4.
There's not much to say so feel free to ask questions.

Thanks for sharing l wonder If its available where I am located and hopefully at a decent price point
Sent from my SM-N910F (Note 4)

Thanks, I plan to get one

I would say yes. It has a better warranty, faster read speeds, and Lexar is better than SanDisk in terms of reliability, especially when used in Samsung phones.

Of Course, better Datarates and no thermal Issues.
best regards

I've always had nothing but great experiences with Lexar! I purchased the 128 GB 633x from Amazon and love it! Can't go wrong with their products. That warranty is great to have as well.

Was there a price or did I miss it

That is definitely better than the ultra. And it does matter in the phone. I have a lot of Micro Sd cards because I have a GoPro so I tested the transfer speed in the phone of most of them. First I took a 1 gig video at 4K and saved it to the internal storage. Then timed how long it would take to copy it the the sd card from the phone. First the Sandisk Ultra took 83 seconds, then the lexar 600x took 57 seconds, third the Samsung Pro took 41 seconds. So there are real life scenarios that the speed matters. Also, since I have a GoPro, I hate that I have an Ultra card because it can't be used in it.

The US amazon currently has it $119.99US. On a side note, the Scandisk Ulta 128GB is $119.49 on the site.
Personally, not that I couldn't find a way to use the space, I'm just more waiting for the price to lower to around $50US. There will be some kind of sale. Till then, I'll torture myself with the 64GB Scandisk Ulta I've been using for over two years and the 32GB on internal storage

Anyone have any insider info if or when Samsung will release a 128gb of their pro card?

It's gonna take a while. They don't even have a slow version of the 128GB. They're gonna release the Evo before they do the Pro.

hmmm where did you buy from OP?

He said in his post. I pulled it up on Amazon

Yes,Lexar is also of a better performance on my GN4 as I add an external one with 64GB,and that's enough so far..

I still have not fill up my 64gb but if this goes on sale on Black Friday then I will really jump on it. Thanks for the info

Thermal Issues Exist
I received my 128 * 633 yesterday and loaded DivX files at about 21 mps and mp3's at between 11 MBps and 16 MBps using the enclosed USB 3 adapter. I was able to load between 3GB and 20GB at a time before the device experienced thermal shutdown. Device was too hot to touch upon shutdown and had to cool down before the computer would see it again. Do I have a problem unit or is this the unavoidable nature of the beast? I intend to run it in my LG G3 so I would be tasking it more gently than with my uploading.

did anybody have the chance to compare the lexar directly to sandisk or the new samsung 128gb sd cards in a phone?
