Do you have any data to back up your claim? Or is this your personal observation, if so where and how did you base your observation?
I have had no problems with SanDisk sdcards; in fact, from what I understand, SanDisk is the industry standard. I have had more than a few sdcards and SanDisk has been the most reliable over the years. Just my observation.
I've had the same scan disc ultra class 10 since I got my note 1 and it's held up great. I also have a Samsung class 10 and it's held up great too.

I can back this up... my SanDisk 64GB UHS-1 MicroSDXC died right at about 3 months. Writing to it/formatting it even on a PC caused it to get so hot it was painful to the touch. The good news is that SanDisk has excellent customer service and my new replacement is arriving UPS today.
Because of this, I've also bought a 64GB Samsung class 10 UHS-1 MicroSDXC and will be using it in my phone as my daily driver. I'll put the SanDisk in my GoPro or something else.
** EDIT ** I just wanted to add that I own a LOT of SanDisk microSD cards 32GB and smaller, and they have never given me a bit of problem. It's only the 64GB specifically that lots of people seem to have trouble with (based on my experience and Amazon reviews).
I just bought a SanDisk MicroSDXC 64gb and I've used it for a few days. It seems to be working fine at the moment, but if anything changes or if a issue arises, I'll post it here.
I formatted it to FAT32, instead of just leaving it as EXTFAT (look for a Fat32 converter on google). I've also transferred around 10gb or data to it on one go, and it seems to be holding up.
I very much hope that it doesn't die on me, but I have also read that people may have issues. Best thing to do is to back up your stuff every now and then.

If you haven't bought a card yet, buy the Samsung Class 10 card. It seems the speed is almost twice as fast as the SanDisk Class 10. I am using the SanDisk 64gb class 10 now and I wish I would have gotten the Samsung instead because of the huge speed difference.

You guys do all know that sandisk buys there memory from samsung there using last years technology while Samsung sd sds are this year thus why the Samsungs are twice as fast

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

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.

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.

Post a screen shot of the write test from your phone .
I currently have an old 6gb SanDisk sdcard I got a few years ago which works well for me.
Although I've been wanting to upgrade to a 32 or 64gb sdcard. I've noticed people having issues with sdcards like the phone won't recognize or it unmounts rapidly.
I was wondering what you guys use that's most stable for you. Do you guys use SanDisk, Samsung, etc memory cards? Post model or anything that works.
Thanks in advance.

Do you guys see speed difference using a class 4 & a class 10 on a daily activity?
How can you see the speed of a memory card? Is it by downloading things? Or how responsive things in the memory card are when they're being used?

I know there are numerous issues with 4.1.2 with the Note 2 and the S3 concerning the micro SD card. Right now I have a 2GB (no idea what the class is) SanDisk card in my note 2. I bought a 16GB class 10 lexar, and one day later I got the mounting issues where the phone would keep mounting and unmounting the card. Couple of days later, the card was totally unreadable by the phone. So I decided to take it out and thankfully it was still readable on the computer, so I gave it to a friend, where the card works flawlessly on her BB. Anyway, I've read around that the samsung cards have been solving this issue... Is this true? I am definelty staying away from SanDisk and Lexar as those are the two clear brands with problems. Anyway thanks for any help in advance!
I've been running a 32gb PNY SD card for months. Bought when I had my S2 then used it in my S3, did have an isuue with it on my S3 when I made a backup of the rom I was using but was able to completely restore it. Put it in my Note 2 when I got it back in April all has been good so far.

The red/grey sandisk cards in 8, 16, 32 and 64 gig capacities run fine. Rocking the 64 at the moment.
I had read somewhere a few months back that the Sandisk cards had issues with getting hot and failing but if I remember right it was the black class 10 onesthat where 16gb and higher. Something about them not being able to handle the faster read/write speeds in the S3 and probaly in the Note 2. I'm very happy with my class 10 32gb PNY.

Hey guys I have a note 2 and I was wondering I had a 32gb SanDisk class 4 card that I used for over a year on my HTC evo v and it worked well but after I put it in my note 2 after a while it started unmounting and the card died can't be read from cmouter or phone.read that Samsung cards were good so I bought one of of eBay 32 GB after a while again the phone kills the card.right now I have a pny 8gb because I heard those cards were good and so far it has been good for at least 8-9 months. I'm really itching for storage now as I never get to save my nandroids on my phone and have to save it to a USB using otg.
Anyway I bought a 32gb pnybsd card but I'm pretty hesitant to put it in I really don't want to burn cash on another SD card.which brands works the best for you guys ? I know samnsung is just bad with sandisk so is it just sandisk or 32gb cards in general ? I'm getting an lg gpad soon so I could but the 32 GB in their and maybe get a 16 GB for the note 2. What do you guys think ?
