Hi,
This may be a silly question for some but i've searched around and i still cannot find a definitive answer anywhere with regards to micro sdhc cards being used in the samsung galaxy s. If i was to purchase a micro sdhc card am i going to need some form of adapter? I only ask because most places i shop around only sell micro sdhc cards.
It was my understanding that the galaxy s only had a micro sd slot which is what is currently confusing me.
Thanks.
it supports up to 32 GB of microSD
anything larger than 4 GB = SDHC support
Galaxy S supports Micro SDHC.
(Allgamer basically said that, just in a slightly roundabout manner).
I'd like to know (please), whether the device can perform all functionality such as record hd and playback 720p movies over dlna from a class 2 card? I want to order a sandisk 16gb card, but would save the pennies on a class 4, if a class 2 performs well.
you could still get a class 6 16GB cheaper than getting a Class 2 16GB Sandisk, if you buy from other brands like Transcend (excellent), Adata, OCZ, Kingston, etc....
If it helps, I'm using an old class 6 Transcend 8GB. Bought for a micro DVcam (hence the need for class 6) last year and think it was around £10 then - possibly cheaper now?
You can get a 8 GB SDHC from DealExtreme.com for < $20 any day of the week.
Lexar Secure Digital 16GB class 10, 133X
How about this one?
Lexar Secure Digital 16GB class 10, 133X
Tip: SDHC
Size (MB): 16384
Rate (MB/s): 20MB/s
Class 10
Is Lexar a good name for memories?
I am currently using 4 GB Micro SDHC card with SGS.It is my old phones (HTC HD Mini) Micro SDHC card and it is working great.
I just bought this Wintec 16GB class 10 from Newegg.com... now whether it's an actual class 10 that's to be determined cause it's in the mail. But for $30 you at least get 16GB.
anyone try a-data 32gb class 10?
I'm curious if anyone try a-data 32gb class 10?
half the price of other 32gb cards.
the reason I ask is many folks report issues with hd cams.

not that i know of, so far all the confirmed legit SanDisk 32Gb has been Class 2
some places advertise they have Class 4 SanDisk 32Gb microSD but.... the picture and the price listed are those of a Class 2
some people have confirmed the Class 2 SanDisk 32Gb microSD can write 4Mb/s but that was on a new empty disk test
i would like to see some test done on 60% full 32Gb Class 2 SanDisk microSD to see if it can sustain a Class 4 write after half full, being a Class 2
check this review link http://www.testfreaks.com/blog/review/review-of-kingston-class-4-32gb-microsdhc-card/
should buy Kingston or Sandisk 32GB MicroSD for my Samsung GT-i9000 Galaxy S
or any other brand?

How ?? A 720p video at maximum quality usually takes around 1.5 ~ 1.8MBps, so a Class 2 (2MBps guaranteed write speed) in theory should be quite sufficient, at least with my Class 2 cards I haven’t had any trouble recording 720p video.The Sandisk 16GB Class 2 I have can be written to at a minimum constant speed of 8MBps (has around 4Gigs of Data on it already). And the Nokia branded (not sure about the actual brand) 8GB Class 2 which I got with my previous Nokia phone can be written to at 4MBps + (has 7Gigs of Data already). So IMO as long as you go with a name brand you should be able to get more than 2MBps writing speed which should be enough for 720p video.
You might get better speeds when transferring large files to your phone, but how often do you do that ?? And if you do that over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth like I mostly do, it won't matter at all. Spending on anything above class 6 (e.g Class 10) IMO is a total waste of money. I use a class 6 on my DSLR to record 1080p video, haven't had any issues with it so far. So I hardly think Galaxy S can exhaust a Class 6 card, or even a branded Class 2.
video is a secondary use
i use it mainly for applications and data transfer (portable hard drive), the faster the better, the less noticeable lag, and speeds up Titanium Backup quite considerably

The recent batch of SanDisk microSDHC cards (seen here in Brussels in Media Markt and Fnac) has Class 2 marking changed to Class 4 (8, 16 and 32GB). They have exactly the same packaging down to part numbers. That's mine for example: http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e62/ping_ling/android/microsdhc.jpg
And here's something on it http://forums.sandisk.com/t5/Mobile...ught-new-card-is-this-fake/td-p/189102/page/2
Hi, does anyone have one of these?
http://www.sandisk.sg/products/memory-cards/microsd/extremepro-uhs-i/?capacity=16GB
It offers up to 95 MB/s (633X) read speed; write speed up to 90 MB/s (600X) which is about twice the speed of the normal one. And also twice the price
If anyone has this can you do some speed tests and post here?
Thanks.
I'd love an SDXC 64gb version but it's probably cost as much as a 120 gb SSD
AFAIK, our phones don't support UHS-1 format. So I believe it's capped at class 10 for us. I don't think these will benefit us very much.
Micro SD
I dong think the extreme sandisk worth it. Besides it only support 16 gb no more than that. I suggest take the Sandisk Ultra microsdxc or micor sdhc. Its working and fast but worth it
Guys check this strontium 32gb UHS-1 card http://youtu.be/PuHfmuJ8pf0... should I go for it.
says to be faster than sandisk ultra and samsung pro series microsd cards, with life time warranty....
please suggest....
today I have reached the micro SD 32gb samsung...48 mb /s
Personally, I find the Sandisk Ultra to be the best cost versus speed with storage in mind. I've had the 64GB since I bought my GS3 last year and it has worked great with holding nandroid backups and anything else that is bulky.

I have done some reading :cyclops: & find out their are user which are having problem with sandisk ultra series cards, and i am glad that you guys don't have any those kind of issue.
but i think "Strontium 32GB UHS-1 400X" will be better choice for me. this card is showing some promising results in this video review http://youtu.be/PuHfmuJ8pf0 they compared it with sandisk ultra and samsung pro series. and also here they giving away 4gb pen derive:victory:
Ive got the Galaxy S4 I337 16GB version running San Disk Ultra 64GB SDXC just fine no complaints!

I've been wondering the same thing - thanks for posting this thread.
I was wondering if what BRAND, TYPE, AND CLASS will be useful for the Galaxy S5? I heard that the 64GB Sandisk Ultra microSDXC UHS-1 chip is good but doesnt have the full 70mbps reading speed and 20mbps writing speed support on a galaxy s4. It would really help me decide if you suggest what kind of sd card will be fit for the GS5. Thanks!

I have a samsung 64GB. As for the class, it's always class 10, any lower and your giving away performance. As for the type, not sure what that is, for me the type is MicroSD, and all class 10 64gb microsds are UHS-1. I have never had any performance issues with my card but i know sandisk released a gold edition version of their 64gb card that gives an extra 10mb boost, but not sure if its worth it for double the price of any other 64gb, if not, 70mb/s is more than enough

What's the story behind those 3 SD Cards from Sandisk? Because that's what I'm planning to buy.
I got my card today. Samsung micro SDXC UHS-I Pro Class 10 64GB. Read up to 70MB/s Write up to 20 MB/s.
The S5 is compatible with 128GB cards, but way expensive.
I've used a SanDisk 64GB card for over a year with no issues. Before that a 32GB, which was the same. SanDisk have the largest market share in the UK by some margin (which aggrieves Samsung). I never did see intrinsically higher return rates on SanDisk cards or Samsung cards. Both brands are good, both make there own flash memory (Samsung would tell you they make ALOT of flash memory).
You however get lots of fake SanDisk cards (better brand equity), I've even seen reputable retailers get duped, which tends to happen less with Samsung.
Buy from a reputable retailer and which ever brand you choose you will be fine. I personally prefer SanDisk but I don't have a rational reason for it. 128GB will drop in price over the next 6 months (obvious really). So I'd save your money. Faster cards are better and for the small difference in cost it's worth it. Although be aware that you are not paying for better quality "memory" as per se but a faster controller.

Agreed. The new release by Samsung from the EVO/PRO line would probably be best.
I'll probably pick one of those up when they drop a bit in price.
Can anyone confirm that you can still set the micro sd as your main storage source?

Here your link i see 64 gb. That's good capacity range for S4..:silly:
I have a class 10 64gb Sandisk I paid £30 for about 6 months back. I have never had any issues with it in my S4 and the speed is fine. I will be swapping it over to my S5 on Friday and expect pretty much the same.
I am interested to see what speed I will get via the USB3.0 feature though.

Is it true that you cannot move your apps to the micro sd card?
Hey guys, My wife and I will be getting the Note4, what SD card is recommended? I don't know if we're going with a 64 or a 128 just wondering about quality and SD vs SDXC. thanks..

My Thoughts
I was contemplating the 128 but i don't think i'll ever use it, and im a music and movie junkie, but i don't keep movies (or tv shows) on my phone after i watched them, so i went with a 64gig sandisk mobile ultra. I also don't believe the phones can take full use of the higher transfer rates of some cards (48mb/s+ cards) so i went with this guy here:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JAKH0F4
its Amazon Prime Eligible and comes with the adapter and usb reader.
I'm sure others will post their thoughts as well
Goodluck

These phones won't take advantage of the higher speeds of the Extremes and Pros unless you're removing the card from your phone and plugging it into a USB 3.0 card reader each time. So The 48MB/s Ultras and Evos are good enough.

Just picked up one of these
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Elect...412429044&sr=1-6&keywords=64+gb+micro+sd+card
Got good reviews and has the bandwidth for 4K. The Note 4 will be my first 4K device so I wanted to make sure I had a good card to go with it. Dont need 128 GB (yet) personally as I stream pandora for my music. I am sure the sandisk cards would have been just fine as well.
I have the 128GB microSD card and it's great! Super fast, and stupid high capacity. But with picture and video file sizes getting bigger and bigger, and phones doing more and more, I believe that the space will come in handy. I've currently got LOTS of HD movies on it in the Note 3... but if I need the space on the Note 4 I can easily delete them.
hi,
I need to ask what you thin about this SD : SanDisk 64GB Mobile Ultra Micro SD (SDXC) Card - Class 10 UHS-1
I had this about a year and would be good for note 4 and QHD video? or which speed is good for note 4 to be great for video camera?
thanks

Really makes no difference since the phone does not support the UHS-I speeds. The SanDisk Ultra would be as good as a more expensive ones.
sanddisk and Samsung are both highly rated as very good quality. You can't go wrong with either. I suggest which ever one on sale or cheaper that's the way to go.
great guys thanks, I was scared to buy new one card.
Im getting this..
Samsung Electronics 64GB PRO Micro SDXC with Adapter Upto 90MB/s Class 10 Memory Card (MB-MG64DA/AM) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IVPU88U/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_kLSmub1MQDR6P
Grabbed this one for $80 during the sale in the morning.
http://www.amazon.com/Lexar-High-Performance-microSDHC-Memory-LSDMI128BBNL633R/dp/B00O1M21H8
Decided to go with it since Lexar (micron/crucial) makes the best chips and the warranty is better than the one provided by Samsung and SanDisk. But most importantly, it's faster than the current SanDisk.
I wish there was an option to up the voltage to the SD card readers in Samsung phones. I get that they lower the power for battery life and heat, buy I also want to get decent transfer speeds with my phone. No real point in getting an SD card above 48MB/s for phone use only as the required voltage for UHS-1 is not available. I do believe that all Snapdragons since the 600 support UHS-1 though. Too bad.
i'm curious about the 128 gb max storage on specification, does that mean phone+ micro sd = 128 max or 128gb micro sd+ phone internal storage?

128gb max is the microsdxc alone (but that's only because there aren't any 256GB microsdxc cards on the market)
it's 128gb + 32gb
Running SanDisk ultra sdxc 128GB in my GN3 and mt Go Pro Hero3 black .
Like computers, our devices tested/rated for what memory is currently available when the device is released.
For example GN3 is rated for 64GB sdxc, but 128GB works fine.
For what was initially stated in the OP.
The variants of "sd" are based on capacity. With few exceptions to some 4gb mSD cards, sdhc is 4gb-32gb , and sdxc is 64+GB for meow. Until something greater than 128GB is released, which may or may not be sdxc or variant of.
Whats the max speed can the note 4 read on sd card? Same as note 3 and other recents samsung phones?

THIS IS THE BEST CARD OUT PERIOD.
If you want the best, here you go:
Samsung Electronics 64GB PRO Micro SDXC with Adapter Upto 90MB/s Class 10 Memory Card (MB-MG64DA/AM)
For the cost of your kidney you can also opt for: Lexar High-Performance microSDHC 633x 128GB UHS-I Flash Memory Card LSDMI128BBNL633R
(However, I'd wait for Samsung's 128GB PRO ....one things for sure, you can count on it in every way.)
SanDisk is garbage...never again. The integrity of the cards have tanked over the years.
Go Samsung....

Lexar is every bit as good as Samsung if not better. they're owned by Micron/Crucial and are known in the photography and computer sphere for making the best chips out there, but I guess their stuff is marketed as more high brow so the average consumer isn't acquainted with the brand. Note that the Lexar cards have lifetime warranties for a reason.

The speeds posted are appear to be sequential read/write speeds. Which important when your transferring large files to and from your computer using a usb 3.0 card reader. But for android applications which usually create lots of tiny files random read/write performance means much more.

Worth noting I had to mod this to fit under they hyperion battery cover, it's too large as-is.
I have the SanDisk 128gb and it works absolutely fine. I have the 4k video recording onto it with no problems.
