[Q] Which SD Card would be compatible for the Note 2

Hallo!
I am expecting my preorderd Note2 in a couple of days. It is the 32GB version.
Now I am thinking about a SD Card to get some more space.
But what card would be compatible? Does anybody know the specification for compatible cards?

For day to day use, you will see no difference on Class 6 or 10 ... if you plan to copy/move large files or music files on a regular basis, then maybe a little ... Will definitely not affect any performance like Camera app, etc.
And I still prefer 32GB Class 10 for now.

64gb C10

there's no such thing as too large of a mem card,
if u have the money then go for the 64gb C10

Does the Note come with a card already installed? I just ordered this morning but have 32Gb SanDisk. I was going to get 64Gb SanDisk and leave 32Gb in my Motorola Photon. If Note comes with card already installed, if lesser I will put that in Photon and sell it

hi,
no,i got my note 2 out of box with no sd card.Had to use my own.
good luck

Class 6 and Class 10 write speed in Note 2 won't be a big difference.
I found Note 2's external memory controller write speed capped at around 10-11MB/s
But for read speed, it will be a BIG difference.
I am using Samsung 64GB UHS-I Pro micro SD.
Having like 55MB+/sec read speed.
with my old Lexar 32GB Class 10 only got 13MB/s read speed.
So, if you concern of read speed, get fastest card you can afford.
if your main concern is write speed, get a class 6 or class 10 would be fine.
And don't get SanDisk ultra. it's known to have problem with Note 2.

How much for that card? and I have NEVER had issues with SanDisk Cards? I can get the Ultra for $59.00 on Amazon!

I bought mine in Hong Kong for USD 95.
It's expensive yeah but it's the fastest 64GB micro SD you can buy.
It's good for you that you don't have problem with SanDisk Ultra but you can search for Note 2 + SanDisk Ultra.
It has a known problem, after awhile of use or the disk capacity reached certain amount.
Sometimes it will unmount the card or even damage the files in the card.
You can only re format the disk to solve the problem.
MANY people reported this problem. I don't know maybe trigger rate is not 100% but still not recommended.

Darkinners, thanks for your responds and suggestions (which I took and did a search, then some research!)
1. All of these complaints on SanDisk were about the 32Gb Card, not the 64Gb card. All the 64Gb comments were good.
2. The people with issues (both 64Gb and 32Gb) had formatted the card at exFAT, not SDXC. Mathamatically, I can pretty much figure out a.) why it will not write files over 4Gb and b.) why the 64Gb exFAT crashes after it fills over 16Gb! (Think about it, SIII is desinged to read/store 32Gb, not 64Gb even though it will format exFAT. And as for the kid whos computer would not read the 64Gb exFAT, i bet he has 32-bit machine?
3. All complaints were from Europe and blamed on a bad batch of cards (it happens). The one happy individual I saw got his card from Amazon, which is a ligit website. Just because the card says SanDisk, does not mean it actually SanDisk. Cheap forgien vendors use this lable to make them look legit?
4. The card you mentioned and the SanDisk are priced about the same, $59.99USD. I will get SanDisk and format either in phone or my laptop as SDXC and play for awhile. If it piss me off, I will return it!
Again, thanks for your input and suggestions!

What 64bit SD card do you recommend?

I am in the midst of buying one and was curious which ones you guys are using, and confirmed are working on our Note, thanks.:good:

Samsung 64GB Class 10 Micro SD SDXC UHS-1 Grade 1 Pro Memory Card 70MB/s.
Expensive but worth every single cent.
The 64GB UHS-1 from Samsung is the best memory card I have every had.
Greetings from Germany

I purchased a Sandisk Ultra Class 10 on Amazon. It works great - no problems at all.
(seems I'm a "can't post links yet" noob still) The item number is B007WTAJTO
I would recommend purchasing from a reputable vendor, as in "Ships from and sold by Amazon.com". I had a Amazon seller send me a Class 2 unbranded card with a SD reader when I ordered a Class 4 Sandisk card with microSD reader. Very annoying and I suspect intentional.
Ernthelfer, have you done any speed testing on your Samsung card?

Thanks for the suggestions fellas appreciate that. :good:

I also have the Sandisk 64GB. I'm wondering HOW to test the speed and for bad blocks using my unrooted GN 10.1.(Can't use my PC for testing.)

Thanks. I tried this already. It didn't work; I can't remember the reason. Also tried the SD Tools app with no luck.
Has anyone with an unrooted GN 10.1 had any luck with these apps? Thanks.

for some reason you can't buy this micro sd card in the uk that is why i will have to buy a sandisk 64gb instead which is not ideal but it's the best i am gonna get, i can get a samsung 32gb class 6 though i might go for that as i like samsung micro sd cards.

Sandisk MicroSD EXTREME

Does anyone have to use the device Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini - Card Sandisk MicroSD EXTREME?
The fact that my answer came from a corporation that Sandisk EXTREME cards are not suitable for the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini:
We have checked and found out that your device Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini phone is compatible with the card 64GB Ultra micro SD, but not with the card SanDisk 64GB 80MB / s UHS-1 Extreme micro SD, for which you asked.

There have been reports that some users had issues with power consumption when using certain 64GB microSD cards.
I'm not sure if the line of cards are those you have specified but I doubt the device will be able to hit 80MB/s anyway so you would be purchasing an over-speced card for the phone.

card
its not the 64gb card version but i am using the 32gb extreme by sandisk without any problems?

The users were fine with the 32 but had issues with the 64. Not sure what's up

micro SD card class compatibility

Hey everyone,
could someone tell me which class of micro SD card the Moto Z2 force supports?
In all the recommendation blog posts they offer UHS-I class 1 or class 3 cards. I even saw a UHS-II class 3 card recommended once.
As usual you can't (easily) find information on these specific specs.
Does somebody know up to which class is supported?
Kind regards

UHS-II are not used at their max speed, so I would go with fastest UHS-I Samsung or Sandisk. With Lexar I had a lot of issues with my old Griffin (which should have same specs...)

Thanks for the info.
I asked a Motorola rep online when I bought the Moto Z and he told me that it doesn't support UHS-I cards.
But now it should be able to use UHS-I class 3 cards I hope.
