How good would a 32g sd work??

Ok so im thinking of buying a 32g sd for this phone cuz i really wanna put all my music on my phone and i have like 10g of music, wondering how well it would work, Ive bought an 8g and 16g sandisk at walmart and both have worked great, anybody using a 32g on their s2?? What kind? Thanks

I'm using one... the speed isn't great but for music and videos and also for nandroid backups and such, speed isn't so much of an issue. I got it on sale from Newegg (I think the brand was A-Data or something like that) for $40, but I got it a while ago.

I have a Samsung class 4 32gb and I only have like 3gbs left on it. I have used it for the last few months in my T989 with zero issues

Just bought an 32gb Class 10 Samsung micro SD from Amazon for $50. Swapped it into my phone this morning. No problems, speeds are class 10 or better (see pic using SD tools app).

i have both the 32 GB and currently using the 64 GB as my daily driver
they both runs great
the speed of the SD is not determined by size, but by its quality and Write Speed
there is a sticky with benchmarks you can see which cards performs better

I also use a 32gb sandisk class 4. It works fine. I put my spotify offline cache on it and rom and titanium app backups.

I don't know I'm using a 64gb

No problem with my 32GB Sandisk. About to jump onto the 64GB train

32gb all the way!
I bought 2 x 32GB cards (1for my GS2 and 1 for my gf's GS2) 28 each on ebay... Class 4 though, but works awesome. Great for titanium backups/music...going on vacation prob buy a 64GB for vid and pics.

I'm looking forward to the upcoming 128 GB microSD later this year
hope the prices are not insane, the price for the 64 GB i paid last year was pretty crazy already, if the 128 GB cost more than $300 i think i'll pass

I have a Samsung 32GB class 10 that I bought at frys for like a total of 35$ and havent filled it up. I put all my apps like mc3 asphalt 6 and all those big games on my sd card. And then I have like 16GB of music on my ext card and the rest I just use it for like nandroids, roms and theme back ups and and place for some video recording.

That's only a class 4. There were a couple deals with higher classes for around the same price. I would suggest going at least class 6. I think the max that our phone writes is 8? Not sure on that one.. I have a class 10 but i normally use a usb adapter to transfer files which is blazing fast compared to the data cable way.

Meh, That's a lot of dough for one card.
I got my 32gx10 from Amazon for around 30$.
My 16gx10 backup card from Amazon for around 20$.
My 8gx10 SOL backup was 25$ but that was awhile ago.
None of mine are SDXC, anybody have a reasonable grasp on what kind of improvement SDXC would offer?
I sure do love memory.
I don't really need anything that fast. I'm thinking about stocking up on a couple these:

You should look into the samsung ones they claim that its waterproof and shock proof. I bought my 32gb 10x for 28.99 to go along with a new pentax so far so good

SDXC allows for much faster data transfer when used with the appropriate devices. For our phones and anything that cannot handle them yet, they will just be much higher capacity and have about the same class 10 speeds of a normal micro sd card.

Thats good to know. I was told my pentax should be capable of being upgraded via firmware for compatibility for those cards. Just too hard to mess around with a cameras firmware especially since I got it for so cheap at fry's $299 with dual lens kit!

Yeah, it looks like SanDisk has switched over to labeling their Class 2 cards (which always performed at Class 4+ level) as Class 4, and also their Class 6 cards as Class 10 now. There still are only two tiers of SanDisk cards.
So now SanDisk cards are rated approximately correctly according to the standards, combating the Class inflation in advertising which has seemed to occur in other manufacturer's cards, while still cashing in on the general consensus that up to this point, SanDisk cards have always performed above spec. Better than buying a Class 4 which performs at Class 2 levels, but not as good as the little thrill of buying a SanDisk Class 2 and finding that it smokes the Class 6 from another manufacturer you already had.

Thanks for the clarification
I'm telling everyone everywhere I go these next two things:
Double your 4g speeds without installing anything, will post how if anyone wants to know...
And...
Ever have to factory reset due to a "whoops!"? Hijack the Sprint Installer and fill it with your must have apps so you never have to do a tedious apps reinstall again!
The preloader has 300M of space.. and I just tested a factory reset. Sure enough my apps are loaded in.
Why waste?

My Note II is super happy with the Samsung Class 10 32GB I have in there.
Had the SDCard in my last phone, but it seems really "at home" in the Sammy

Is there a noticeable benefit of a class 10 card over a class 6 one on this phablet?

If your not switching your sdcard with your internal one then I doubt you will notice a difference between the 6 and 10 since all apps are stored on the phone.

There is an extremely noticeable difference if you are copying files from your computer. I am always copying a lot of video to and from my card and a 66% increase in write speed saves me a lot of time.

im using a sandisk ultra 64gb sdxc class 10($50) reformatted to fat 32(for TWRP) in 1 note2 and a sandisk 32gb class 2($20) in the other and the write speed when copying videos from my PC is virtually identical......(fast)...is this due to the reformatting?

I have the Sandisk which is fine for me. Still don't understand that my old Nokia N97 already had 32gb whereas the superduper quadcore hype devices of today are still stuck at 16gb internal memory. These should have been at 64gb stock. Ah well...

I have a sandisk one as well (class 10 sdxc). It's rated at about 30mbps vs the normal 10mbps. Works great so far.

Try to find ones that labeled UHS-1 (or UHS-I). If you want use torrents or others extremely high IO operations buy only ones with >40MB read/write specification (actual speed will be lower), otherwise stick with those with >20MB read/write.
ADATA has UHS-1 series 45MB Read/Write
SanDisk has UHS-1 "Mobile Ultra" 20MB Read/Write and UHS-1 "Extreme" 90MB Read/Write
List of course is incomplete, and all of UHS-1 labeled card also have Class10 label (because there is no higher Class)
Other that SanDisk "Mobile Ultra" will be expensive at 64GB and hard to find..

I've read somewhere Samsung micro SD 64gb is slightly faster than Sandisk one by a few mb/s transfer speed.

Ty for your answers peep.

I recently bought a 'SanDisk microSDXC Ultra Class 10 64 GB' and am very happy with it. I even managed to watch a 1080p movie with lossless DTS sound with it recently without even the slightest problem.

I also went with the Sandisk 64gb one, I formatted it in exfat with windows 7 and its been great for movies.

Great! Do u guys have an idea where i can get 1

Best 32gig Class 10 Micro SD

Can anyone recommend me a 32gig micro sd card? I recently purchase this POS http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA26X0PJ1516 from newegg and I'm pissed off at how bad it is. It is advertised with amazing write and read speeds but is nothing near that! It maxes out around 6.6 MB write and 10MB Read speed, WTF. I'm in the process right now for getting a refund and want to get a reliable SD that does not lie about it's speeds. Thanks

Go for the sandisk one. Or if speed is what you want go for there extreme 16 or 32 GB more expensive but boss overall

I ended up buying this card by GSkill. It has a lifetime warranty which works awesome even if your card doesn't. Google searches found that they have the best replacement turn around and processing.

Does it really matter on the class, I have always been confused by that.

Yeah as each class gets higher, it means the read and write speeds get faster. Class 2 is the lowest. Class 10 is the fastest. And there's
UHS 1 which is faster then class 10

Yeah it has to do with something relating to 32gb. anything above 32gb has to be formatted diffrrently? I can't remember the exact details about it.
64gb is crazy amounts of space. I only use about 15-20gb. But I've seen some of these apps in the play store go up to 1gb now which crazy for an app.
