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.

Hello, I am looking to purchase a 64gb micro SD card. I have been keeping my eye on the SanDisk 64gb Micro SDXC card. The retail for this card is $185. I am not paying that. I have found the class 10 (there is a class 6 and 10 version, 10 is better) version on Amazon for $70. Is this the best deal?
Thank you.
yes ,its best deal:angel:
64gb for 70 seems like a fine deal to me, but im sure cheaper is possible.

Yes that was a good deal to go...
Go for it, sounds like a great deal to me, even with shipping its a steal!
I have purchased 2 of these from Amazon and both have failed at about 8 gig and become unusable. When inserting into my PC, it says they need formatted and when trying to format, they fail. I already returned 1. Now returning the other.
Yes, that's a best deal i think.

Yeah, I was browsing the GN2 section and saw the same post... I also picked another one up.
Already have the same card in my Galaxy Note 10.1 and it works great!
i got 64Gb class 10 earlier today morning as well. Hope to get it soon...
Now i need to learn how to move nova3, GTA3, FIFA12, Asphalt7 apps to SD card. I am not rooted, and don't want to root either... hopefully there is a legit way to do this.

Quick question : does samsung offer their 64gb microsd with all the water resitant / ton resistant yet ? I read somewhere that samsung's has higher transfer and read/write is higher even though they are the same class? Also i didnt bite on this because i, too, sent my sandisk back 2 years ago for a warranty.

Asking anyone who ordered a 64 GB (or 32) Sandisk micro SD card from Amazon? Did it come in a standard retail blister pack or just the plastic card holder without a blister pack? Thanks.
EDIT: Never mind. It looks like I ordered the "Frustration Fee Packaging" version of the product by mistake. Don't like it. Seems like a fancy term for selling used merchandise that's missing original packaging.
Seen the 64gb Samsung pro series running at 80mbps read on bestbuy online for $ 264.00 and the 32GB for $99.00. Those prices are outrageous!

I got a 64GB SanDisk that I formatted to FAT32 and it works perfect. If there's a MicroCenter near you then you could get a good deal on a micro sd. The SanDisk I bought was 55 at MicroCenter and 100 at BestBuy.
This one works for me:
http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-microSDXC-Memory-Adapter-SDSDQUA-064G-U46A/dp/B007WTAJTO
most people around here recommend the Samsung... because SanDisk had a bad batch of microSD cards... and even they accepted it... that said I have a SanDisk 64gb and it's working flawlessly so far...

I followed this method when I bought my sandisk ultra 64gb card. Somehow when I format with my PC it only recognizes it at 32gb. Tried with windows xp and windows 7 same result. Using the software below worked perfect.

Bought my sandisk sdcard from amazon also and have not had any issue with it. $50 would be good price for one but its probably more which brand you should get that you should ask.
Thanks guys.

Thankfully you're very wrong. I'm waiting for 128 GB MicroSDXC before I get a card though. GS4 supports exFAT, so any size MicroSDXC should work.

What ^^ he said.
$50-$60 (sub-40 quid if you're british) for a class 10 or UHS-1 64GB uSDXC card is a reasonable price. I still like SanDisk, they did have a bad batch before Christmas (and I unluckily got one) but they replaced very quickly with no fuss so they get my vote. I used amazon for my last one.
64 gig is fine for tonnes of music and photos, only time I'd want more is if I was taking my entire DVD collection everywhere with me.
128 Gig micro sd card on amazon for $130-$150.

I would recommend newegg or adorama.
Amazon's "Warehouse Deals" section usually has open-box/repack Sandisk and Samsung UHS-1 cards for a little over $40 and $50, respectively.

Yeah, I've seen the 128 GB full-size SDXC cards for quite a while now, but no 128 GB micro SDXC. Main reason I need all that space is my full music collection is around 75 GB, and I'd love to finally dump the old iPod classic and just have the whole collection on the phone. :good:

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 see a lot of reports regarding defective SanDisk cards though. Do you own one? If so can you run a speed test and let me know how it performs.

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

I'm running a 32gb SanDisk that's labeled UHS 1 but also says class 10.
I had a 8gb that was the same until black Friday when bestbuy had the 32 GB for under $20 with tax.
I've yet to have a SanDisk fail and I abuse my SD cards.

Yeah I think my new SanDisk is like that too. But I got my card way before the holiday season it was $23. I know I saw it at bestbuy for $17 but its 6 bucks. What I really wanted was a 64gb card. Saw it on Amazon for one of the sales for $34. But 32gb is plenty for me for the moment.
The one you got from BestBuy was the extreme or regular?

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.
