There has been some discussion on XDA about 64GB microSD cards on the Galaxy Tab 7.0+. The threads I've seen are older (April 2012) and state that the cards work. That's encouraging. The cards to which they refer are the Class 6 cards which were out early this year.
However, it's now September, and Class 10 cards are out, and they DO NOT work. The GT 7.7 people discovered (and I just "accidentally confirmed" on my stock ICS P6210) that Class 10 64GB cards get irreparably damaged when used on our Tabs. I have Class 10 cards in my S3 and Galaxy Note 5.3, and they're working just fine in there, but my P6210 just ate one on the first large file write - as has been seen on the 7.7 tabs as well!.
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1460201&page=7 and other posts for reference.
After "bricking" one of my brand new class 10 cards, I've just ordered a Class 6 64GB card from Amazon, and expect no problems with it - but be warned that many people are having problems with the Class 10 cards, on the 7.7 and (now, for me at least) the 7.0+ tabs.
FWIW, YMMV...
Thanks for taking your time to post useful info. Was about to purchase the new class 10 - u1 card
So I read many posts about the GT7+ and 7.7 with a lot of talk about problems with 64gb cards, sandisk class 10 cards,etc. Just curious about people's experiences with getting 32gb cards for this tab? Do other brands of non sandisk 32gb class 10 cards work (read and write) for this tab? Or should I try to find a class 4/6 to be safe?
Thx
The problem with SD cards is that the controller for reading/writing them is not on the card but on the device to save costs on the card side.
This means that your device is limited in SD capacity by its controller. As far as I know, the tab+ lists SD sizes up to 32GB as compatible, so a 64GB card will probably fail (or only show 32GB).
Most 32GB cards should not cause any problem.
Class 10 is always better the limitation with the 64gb must be because your ROM needs to read ExFAT instead of FAT32, i have not try the 64gb and don't know about a specific ROM with ExFAT support but i'm willing to try.
I have been using a class 6 Sandisk 64 card in my 6210 for the past 18 months or so. Before the class 6 card, i tried two class 10 Sandisk 64 cards and they were both unable to be read by the 6210. I tried to reformat them and they were completely unusable afterwards. I then got two Transcend 64 class 10 cards from amazon and they worked fine. I've got those cards in both of my samsung galaxy players (4.0 & 5.0)

I have heard that folks are running (rooted?) Note 3's and Galaxy S5s with a 128GB micro SD card. Samsung marketing says 64GB micro SD for the Note 4 and Edge - but WILL they run the 128GB micro SDs?
My 128GB micro sd card worked fine in my Note 3 before I rooted it.
Has anyone got a 128GB Samsung SD card to work on their device?
Seems like the talk is that only max 64GB. Maybe a fix is available for rooted devices.
Anyone ???

I am using 128GB card with my note edge [unrooted official] & used the same card previously with Xperia Z1 too.. no issues.
Samsung put only what is guaranteed to work, not sure why they didn't say the 128gb was compatible as theoretically you should be able to use up to a 2Tb micro sd card, if they went up that high, as that is the SDXC standard( or so I read somewhere)....
Thanks guys for letting me know. Yeah their explanation could have been a lot better.
I believe I had read that the Snapdragon variants supported 128GB, while Exynos only supports 64GB. Sorry I can't confirm that
I'm using my 128 gig card out of my rooted note 3 I'm my verizon unrooted edge and is working just fine.
I'm looking for a rock solid reliable card for this device. I was thinking a 32gb samsung evo or sandisk ultra (I'd prefer 64gb size if these work). I read some people have been able to use 64gb+ SD cards with success. However, on the previous model people were having problems with various cards including the samsung evo and sandisk ultra. Some people suggesting class 6 works better than class 10. I don't know. I'm just confused now and want a fast reliable SD card for my phone with 32/64gb storage.
I've read about a lot of problems with previous moto g's and microsd issues. I currently have 2 lexar class 10 32gb SD cards and both work for a few weeks and then tell me the SD card is damaged. I notice when I check the card on my mac some of the files on the SD card appear corrupted and are 0kb in size. I had this problem with these cards with my old ZTE skate so assumed it was the SD card at fault but I'm not sure.
Are the microSD card issues of previous devices fixed now or is it still very much an issue?
Could we perhaps make a list of tried and tested cards what work perfectly in Moto G 4G LTE 2nd Gen XT1072?
Thanks!
i use team group micro sd card and it's good because there is no fake right now !!!
if you access to buy original try sandisk or patriot
I do not have any problems with the sd on my moto g 4g, I have 32 GB micro SD and everything works.

Hi guys, i am looking forward to purchase a Memory Card for My Note 4 N910C, that supports Up to 128gb as mentioned on GSMArena.com, So my query is about to Memory cards, So please suggest me which company memory card i should buy. as there are lots of options available on internet.
The best microSD Cards on the market are those made by Sandisk and Samsung. Either of those brand will work perfectly with the N910C. I have a N910C with a 32GB Sandisk Ultra MicroSD Card, which I will be upgrading to a 128GB card when I find one in my local high street retailer.
I would highly recommend sticking to Samsung cards in a Samsung device. I know there is a lot of debate about this, but from my personal experience, I have had no less than 4 Sandisk 64Gb cards fail in various Samsung devices (phones and tablets), but I have never had a Samsung card fail. Currently I am using a Samsung 64Gb PRO, but the EVO should be fine too. Hoping to get a 128Gb PRO once the prices come down a little more.
Tested to Sandisk 200gb SD card on my Note 4 910A.

Samsung 128GB micro SD EVO UHS-I Class 10 48MB/s
I've been using this one pretty heavily in my N910C ever since I own it. Never have a problem whatsoever. Ultra reliable. Samsung storage yields the highest MTBFs in the field. Probably removed planned obsolence from the equation entirely, since they know that when 4 billion humans will want to buy their storage that will be more than enough to break-even and keep in business..

Thnaks jult !
thanks for the opinion.
Buy samsung ones. I had a 32GB Sandisk Extreme, and it died within 1 month in Note 4.
I have sandisk ultra 64gb before, it's work perfectly on my s4.. but after a few month (almost full) it's became slow n sometimes stuck when transferring file from internal to external card, now I'm using galaxy note 4 SM-N910H and I'm using Samsung EVO+ 128GB, write speed always stable on 20mbps.. expect if I copying a lot of small file (like game data) it will be slow, but until now I have no problem with my card, so if u have samsung device why didn't you use the same brand with your device?
for me.. take the 128GB EVO+
(I wanna have the 256GB EVO+ but the price too high for now, so I'm choosing the 128gb for now)
i use a 64gb strontium and works well still

I love sandisk. have never had a problem with them. I bought a 128 gb from bb for 30 bucks. not bad . hopefully you find something as good
I have a "SanDisk 128GB microSDXC Memory Card Ultra Class 10"(80mbps read), it works great but I feel like it is tougher on the battery life every since I have my samsung 64gb replaced.
I've installed a Samsung 128GB Evo+ (faster than Evo, slower than Pro) in my N910V. When on Marshmallow, I looked at integrating it as a part of built-in memory, and the OS (CM13) complained that it was a bit too slow for that. I decided not to integrate. not so much for speed as I wanted to be able to switch ROMs and wasn't sure how that'd be with an integrated SD card. It's been fine (using it to store music, audiobooks, videos, ebooks, CoPilot maps, TiBackup backups and Nandroid backups)
