The new Samsung UHS-1 card are coming in two weeks which still be much more faster than the SanDisk ones. They will also cost double the price.

Where can I buy one online

sandisk flash memory is very reliable. i would take a wait and see on samsung memory card. not that samsung memory is bad, but it will cost a lot when it first hits the shelves. i have the 64 sandisk and it works very well so far.

Hi!
Yerterday I bought a SAMSUNG MICRO SDXC PRO 64GB (class 10) and i had lots of problem.
On next Monday will return to shop.

What sort of problems did you have

Amazon.com had it on sale yesterday for about $41, SanDisk version and its still listed at that price so act quickly.

That made no difference..

$42 is still a good deal. it is usually around $60. there was a big commotion when it was goldbox deal @ $50 a few months ago. @$42 is still a good price to snatch it up.

Ebay has the sandisk 64gb class 10 for 50-65 dollars...

I'm wondering if we will need to format the 64GB to FAT32 before using?

It did for me

Nope. Note II work with exFat just fine.

My writing speed is only 8.5mb/s on that memory card
Accidentally sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note 2

I'm using a 64gb Sandisk. I formated it using fat32 so I could try out aosp custom roms, it works just fine. Will work with exfat just fine but you wont be able to use it in CWM and CM10 won't see the data.

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.

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:
for backups and stuff

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?

Is this the best deal?

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.

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!

Stay away from SanDisk. They make good cards, but for some reason the GN2 just hates all classes of 32GB from them. I'd recommend the Samsung. They cost a little more but I've not heard of any issues with them.

Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
I have a SanDisk 32GB in my Note II and have had no problems with them. I also had it in a HTC Android phone for quite some time with no issues either.
You already paid Samung for the phone, what's a few more dollars their way. I personally trust the Samsung brand even though Sandisk is just as amazing. Also, good luck on not getting a fake through eBay. Even if the seller looks legit, be weary.

No issues with 64 gig other than the exfat 32 requirement with some Kernels. Does create some "envy" with some roms!
I'm using 64GB SanDisk SDXC. No problems across multiple phones, Note, GS3, G1, Note 2, GS2. Best bet is to not shop eBay for memory products and go with www.newegg.com
If you don't have an amazon card ans sign up for one they will give you a $30 credit. I used one on their 64gb sdxc directly from sandisk and payed like $32 total. Called the day after I received the CC and cancelled it with no penalties.
