[REVIEW & VIDEO] 64GB micro SDXC cards - working in SGSII, HTC Sensation, SGSI

Although this was already confirmed by 3waygeek and Ghost77 (thanks for trailblazing this one for us guys!) prior to my replicating their results, I thought I would start a separate thread for this news, since you have to wade through pages of speculation in the existing thread before getting to the information you need.
I've already nearly filled the card, oh well... look forward to 128GB cards next year? Better start saving now...
There is lots more detail with benchmarks and so forth at AndroidNZ: Sandisk 64GB Micro SDXC cards confirmed WORKING in Galaxy S II, HTC Sensation, Galaxy S, and of course the original thread here.

once again, great video! You represent all that is good about Android Development in Australasia.

Nice video , here is beauty to compliment video.

Yep, works in my Transformer too. I gave up on my Android tablet being more powerful than my phone a while ago - won't happen while the tablets are running on Tegra 2 SoC's. Bring on the Kal-el though and we'll see!

that is reallay a good one, though i don't know whatto fill it in.

Excellent stuff indeed,where can this be purchased in Europe i will look into getting one in a few months.

Just bought one cant wait for 128gb ones

Only place is Sandisk US online store as far as I'm aware. If you're outside the US you'll need to use a mail forwarding company to get it to you - I used Shipito and they've been fantastic on each of the occasions I've used them.

I bought mine from JMS.. Its a small electronic goods store in the UK. They sell alot of imported stuff. They have a few ps vita's that just came in. They don't release here till November.

Buying anywhere outside of Sandisk right now runs a very high risk of receiving a fake.

This is very good to know esepcially for the earlier models but seriously, I have no need for so much storage on a mobile device.

Maybe you don't, lots do. I could use much more to be perfectly honest.

Miniature MicroSD Reader (Kickstarter project)

Hey guys,
For those of us running custom ROMs that enable USB-OTG, I just saw a really cool kickstarter project yesterday (and am already a backer) for a miniature microsd reader that you can just plug into your phone/tablet. I'm not in any way related to this project, I just really, really want to see it get funded. Here's an excerpt from the project page http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/andyfei/mini-microsd-reader-for-android-smartphones-and-ta
Hello world! You like your Nexus tablet but you hate the fact that it doesn't have a built-in SD card reader for storage expansion? My brother and I felt that way when we first got one in July 2012. So we decided to do something about it -- make one for it. After many months of hard work, finally we have something that we feel good about and we want to share with the world.
What does it do?
Well, it is just like a SD card reader that you use on your computer, except it is for Android tablets and smartphones that have MicroUSB port. You can use it to read/write MicroSD cards, copy files between your phone/tablet and a MicroSD card.
It supports MicroSDHC cards up to 32GB (max capacity by SDHC standard), and MicroSDXC cards up to 64GB (max capacity available on the market). SDXC standard supports cards up to 2TB -- this reader should support future MicroSDXC cards of higher capacity up to that, but we have no way of testing it right now.

This Is Cool
Really cool

Sweet idea, but I'd much prefer an idea like this, but built in to a case - so you can still have it plugged in while it's in your pocket.

Excellent been waiting for something like this.

No actually, those were two separate announcements. They were confirming that it worked on the One, but because they hit their stretch goal, everyone who pledges will get the usb-to-microusb adapter. Epic!

I wish it had more storage, but it beats carrying around an OTG cable and flash drive. It looks like a new product since it's not in stock yet and has no reviews. Onite generally has good reviews.

Check www.meenova.com
I think that's what you really want.

That Meenova is exactly what I want. I have a spare microsd 64gb laying around and I really hate the idea of something two inches long sticking out the bottom of a tablet while I'm holding it. Seems like a recipe for disaster.

Features are nice but why did they put that curve at the bottom instead of rounding it off. It just makes the thing look unbalanced and adds extra footprint for no apparent purpose, other than style, which is questionable.

I have had good luck with this type -

You can charge the device or use it as a TF card reader/writer.

Do you have to be rooted to use this?

Yes. You need to install stick mount app which requires root.

Does the end where you insert the microsd card actually double as a regular USB reader? There seems to be a lot of exposed contacts there and I'm wondering what they are for.

That's really convenient.
Please update on how it works out.
I think the meenova is better for someone wanting to extend storage but this device is more useful for people wanting to transfer large files fast between PC and tablet. MTP mode is just slower on many PCs and wireless takes some setup which is ok on your own machine but more of a pain when you want to grab some files from someone else quickly.

Keep us posted on these and let us know how they are. I'm very interested

wonderful. It almost compatible with all my device, such as tablet, cellphone, computer.......
I will upload my pictures some days later.
Some regret is that it is not 16G or more. I hope to keep some movie in it.

Couldn't you just get a USB OTG cable and then use whatever flash drive/card reader/etc you want? The micro usb end of the stick in the OP probably is just that anyways, hard wired to the flash chip.

Sure you could, but products like these are about convenience.
I think I may either go with this
http://dx.com/p/otg-usb-micro-sd-tf-card-reader-w-3-5mm-dustproof-plug-white-silver-215617
or meenova.com
Since they support adding your own card rather than being limited to what they manfucturer includes.

All of these do not work. I purchased the meenova, the i link, and that one other micro SD card reader, and they are junk. Not even worth the $5 I spent on each of them.

Are you sure it isn't something you are doing different? What are you doing to test?
meenova specifically tested on Nexus 7 2013 and I think even made a video.

Not sure of the speeds of this but probably sufficient for viewing on tablets.
Can't find any detail on the weight of it, hoping it wouldn't be too heavy and place stress on the connector in landscape mode.
Only USB 2.0 though.
For those that want USB 3.0, there's the Patriot stellar
Then for those that want to use their own microsd, there's the Patriot Cosmos

Anyone have experiences with these?

The Imation looks pretty cool. I like the little swivel that makes it one piece. I ordered the Meenova and got it a few weeks back. This is my first experience with any OTG, so I really have nothing to compare it to. It took me a little bit to get it working correctly, but that was my own fault for not having a compatible rom/kernel. After I flashed SlimKat, and downloaded Nexus File Manager from the Play Store, it works perfectly. So far, I am really happy that I purchased the Meenova. I'd be interested to hear about someone who has used any of the products linked in the OP.

I'm sure you have seen the Meenova, but in case you haven't, here is a picture.
NEXUS 5

Anyone own any of these?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I've have a Meenova for about a month and can't recommend it enough. Price and functionality make it a huge winner in my books. Here is a link to my initial experiences with a Meenova. It includes pictures with my N5 and Spiegel Ultra Hybrid case. Also with the announcement of 128GB micoSD cards there has been many sales on all sizes of cards including 64GB which the Meenova supports. So far I have not seen whether the Meenova can handle the 128GB cards but their Web site had an in brackets comment beside the 64GB stating "largest available" and the reader supports the same standard as required by the 128GB cards.

Meenova works for sure since I've used it several times... Can't say for other brands but I don't see the reason why it wouldn't work :/

I think this might be one I'd be interested in, given the small size. USB 2.0 doesn't bother me that much, as long as it does max out the write speed at 30MB/sec or so, and not the typical slow speed of kingston datatravellers at 3-5MB/sec

Anyone Received The $50 Credit?

Sooo, I didn't think I was getting this, but I got an email saying I was eligible last week. Anyway, this week will be 4 weeks since I received my phone. I'm hoping to get it by next week in case Google has any black friday/cyber Monday deals.
Anyone gotten the credit yet?

Lucky you, I preowned and I am not eligible for a stupid reason. I can't even find the deal anymore to see why. Big disappointment in that.

I takes a few weeks dude. They wait until the return period is over so you don't get a free $50. Last year with the home mini, it was right at 4 weeks if I remember right. So, it should come any day now.

I wouldn't be surprised if they wait the full six weeks in order to get past the Black Friday deals.

Yeah! But buy what though?
But what are you all planning to buy with it? So far my options are the Pixel Stand or Skullcandy Riff. Leaning more towards the Riff, good reviews for $50, wireless & assistant too. As for the stand, they aren't that special, just another wireless stand. I see soon more certified and Made for Google wireless chargers coming in the future which could be cheaper than the Pixel stand.
Also, expires this Dec 31. So have to use it before that! So might just go for that Riff.
