Found this really nice deal on Amazon.
Just ordered one
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B007WTAJTO/ref=redir_mdp_mobile?redirect=true
I'd say be careful. If you check some reviews, I heard when they sell out, they replace it with Class 6.

You don't have to worry if you buy from Amazon. If you buy from a third party make sure it says "fulfilled by Amazon", you'll get super saver shipping and it will be exactly as described.
It's Sold by Amazon and
Fulfilled by Amazon,
so I'm not too worried about it.
If they ship something other than what I ordered, I'll just return the item
I've always had good experiences with Amazon, as long as the Items are Sold by Amazon directly, or if the Seller's Return Policy is the same as Amazon's.
I read through All 12 pages of Amazon reviews.
This Is a Class 10 Card.
The 4th reviewer was only stating his opinion. Every Reviewer (111 of 112) received a Class 10.
And the 4th reviewer most likely also received a Class 10.
I'm actually using this card right now. Ordered it Saturday, got it Wednesday. Works like a champ.
From Amazon, of course. The price was cheaper than ebay, with none of the risk.
Bought this card last night...hope it works in a 16 GB verizon s3...
I would live to get one of these but I'm in Canada. Anyone want to order one for me?

I can't see pics at work if you uploaded a pic with that, but does your computer read it? Does your phone say its corrupt? If everything says it's corrupt you can probably go to control panel -> hardware and do a full format (25/30 minutes). If nothing recognizes it at all, it's bad and you should request a replacement/refund.
had a hard time formatting the very first time. I am going to do a full format now, if that doesnt work, its going back. Thanks for the help.
Tried everything i know how...i am sending it back...thanks
Just received mine, and installed it in my S3.
Working Perfectly
This is what I did:
- I removed my SanDisk 32GB Class 6 card from my S3 after 'Unmounting' it.
- I saved All data on the card to a Folder on my pc
*the 32GB card is FAT32
- I installed the 64GB card into my S3, Formatted it, and Removed it after 'Unmounting' the card.
I transferrerd All data onto my New 64GB Card via my pc
- I installed the 64GB card into my S3 and Everything is Working Fine
*the 64GB card is exFAT
The 64GB card had 59.47GB Usable memory beforing transferring my folders over to it.

Your card arrived in the cardboard/blister packaging?
Don't know what the odds are of getting a defective card, taking into consideration the Seller, packaging, etc. But hopefully your replacement card will have no issue.
Have you tried to install the card into another device, if one is available?

You can but you can't format it using the Windows formatter. I used easeus software to format mine so that the card would be visible in clockwork recovery. exFAT is not supported there. Had a bit of a scare after formatting with the HP utility. Repartitioned in easeus but it would only read on the computer and it would FC system apps on my phone. Figured out that the partition needs to be primary not logical (what easus defaults to for new partitions) to work on the phone. All you have to do is pop the card in the computer, open easeus and format fat32. Don't mess with partitions

I didn't realize that Clockwork didn't read exFAT.
I just did a backup to my Internal storage cause as you say, CWM didn't see the ext. SD card.
I'm gonna reformat the card now.
Thanks.
Is this what I need to use to convert to FAT32?
http://en.kioskea.net/download/download-380-easeus-partition-master
I'm going to do the following:
- format 64GB card in my S3, which will delete all data
- install Easeus onto my pc
- put 64GB card into my pc
- open Easeus Utility, and format 64GB card to FAT32.
- reinstall Folders previously saved on my pc from my 32GB FAT32 card to the newly formatted 64GB card
- install card into my S3, and I should be good to go?
UPDATE:
- Formatted 64GB card to FAT32
- CWM recognizes card
All is well in the neighborhood

So I bought a 64gb sandisk microSD card but when I tried to format it using GUI format it only formatted to 32gb. I formatted it on an old vista laptop since I don't have an sd card reader. Any idea why it wouldn't show as 64gb?
Where did you buy it from? There are a lot of counterfeit cards for sale.

That looks like the right one...but wasn't Amazon as well as Ebay, rumored to be selling fakes?
So it's a SanDisk? It should work just fine.
Our phones unofficially support 64GB cards as do most phones. I remember even asking the question when 64GB cards just started to come it whether I could use them. You may need to format the card into another format then your phone will recognize every GB of it.
You will not be able to do this with your phone but formatting it on your computer. I'll try finding that form link for you which has a tutorial.

I used the GUI format which is a version of FAT32 format for windows to format the card. When I formatted it I ended up with 32gb instead of 64gb and wondering if it is just a problem with the laptop or the card. If the laptop micro sd card reader didn't support 64gb would it see the card as 32 or just not see it at all?
EDIT: I had my friend format my card with his stock S3 and it recognized all 64gb (although its in exFAT so my phone won't read it DOH) so it appears the laptop I used doesn't support SDXC and that was the issue. Gonna buy a media card reader for my pc to format the card. Thanks for the replys.
Glad you got it going. Here's the thread I started about it, if you're still interested http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-accessories/384806-64gb-micro-sdxc-card.html

Thanks for the link, but for me the issue was my microSD --> USB dongle converter which wasn't compatible with the SDXC. Not sure how the converter could limit this but obviously it did. Will try to find another usb dongle since its more convenient to have that than a SD card. i dont have a SD reader in my big PC either.
Next time you need to Format an SD Card, and want to do it on the PC / Laptop. Use SD Formatter. It has never failed me once. It has even saved a few SD Cards that were allegedly done. I've used the program on several older PC's and Laptops. With nothing more than the SD Card Adapter. But it does require the card to be out of the Device. So not having an SD Card Reader port on the PC /Laptop is an issue .
i had the same but solved

try using some other card reader or leptop with in built card reader and this time use "MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition" google and download
and just run it then unmount ur card and then mount manually u will see 2 partitions on ur SD card reader just delete 2nd partition and click apply and then after format it to exfat by using stock windows tool built in windows ....
Think used Mac or other os format it .???
I have a SanDisk ultra 64 gig micro sd card from walmart I bought for 59 dollars and everything I use it with see 64 gigs. Don't buy the cards online there cons and if you can get a refund. I paid 100 for a 32 gig micro sd card a few years ago, so 59 for 64 gig is a steal. I have the sprint gs3 also.

Which 32 gb 10 class for ZL? Samsung , sandisk , sony, transcend or which? Need to buy one soon.
samsung or sandisk both are good. Just so you know the 64gb sandisk works in our ZL's
i know 64 gb works but it's too costly for me so i am going with 32gb.
juct check my sig, im using 32GB UHS1 from sandisk and work well.
Me too. Iam abt to buy a card. But im scared that the card might get corrupted. Is dat corruption problem common in ZL too?? or only in Z?

Thanks

When I got the phone, I just reformatted it using the phone. I never even looked in to what extension it's using. This was on 4.1.2, and it read it as 64GB then, though I believe the new update says it NOW allows 64GB. I just copied the card onto my computer, reformatted the card, and then put everything back on it. No problems up to this point, though I've only been using 4.2.2 for a few days.
I just picked up a 32gb Sandisk Ultra UHS-1 for it. (64gb was pretty spendy and far more than I really needed) I hope this was a good choice on my part, but judging by the comments it should be fine. I should have my Xperia ZL on Wednesday and will report back how it works out. (Just ordered it, got free overnight shipping)
I am using SanDisk 32 GB UHS-1. Just reformatted it with phone to see, what file system is used with new firmware. It is formatted in FAT32 by default. No problems so far.

Bought Sandisk 32GB 10 class 1-2weeks ago and it's working without any problem. :good:
Whatever you do, be wary of corrupt/mislabeled SD cards!
When you get your SD Card, always first check it out with a tool like H2testw or Check Flash and make sure that the reported size (32GB, 64GB) is indeed the actual storage capacity.
I once bought a 16GB flash drive that could only store 8GB of data; exceeding this 8GB would corrupt the data on the drive. H2testw proved that cheap deals online usually come with a price...
Hi there.
I'm having problems with the SD card, is always unmounting with no apparent reason...
When I'm on the Album (or gallery) and I scroll trough the photos (I've got a few) the card is unmounted and I need to take it of, and put it back in...
While I'm copying files from the PC to the card (trough the phone) the same thing happens...
The card is a sandisk class 10 32Gb... it was used on my SGS2 and never had any problem...
Does it worth to buy another card, or someone else is having the same problems?
I think this is a problem with your sd card. I don't have any problem like that.
Can you please tell me what card do you have?
I have already formatted the card on the pc and on the phone, the result is the same...
Weird problem, I own a Goodram 32 GB Class 10 micro sd card and I haven't got any problems with it. You say that you have tried formatting the card. What format have you chosen? Have you tried reset to factory reset your device? Are you on some custom rom or the stock one? Do you have a possibility to check wheter the problem exists with other micro sd card? Perhaps you can borrow it from someone for a moment or you have another one somewhere. Worst case scenario the card port could be damaged.

I have a Kingston microSDHC 32GB, Class 4 :good:
Hi,
I'm sure that's an issue with your sd card. I've had the same issue with my old SGS3 and an SanDisk 64GB sd card. Then I bought a new Kingston 64GB sd card and it works.
I formated in FAT and in FAT32, same result in both.
Im in the stock ROM, totally unchanged.
I already get a new card and I'm testing it now, if it stills get me troubles I will try the factory reset.
Yeah... that is my fear... that the port is defective or something like that
Ok, updating from the previous post.
I've bought another SD Card and although that on the first time that I used it on the phone, it gave me the same behavior, after formatted it on the phone itself, so far so good.
I've tried the old SD Card with an adapter on the pc, and it works fine, no problem at all... so it must be something specific to the phone, I've read that some Samsung are a SD card eaters, so I believe that the problem is related to that (my previous phone was a SGS2).
Thank you all for the tips.

Not necessarily.
Card of class 4 may be good enough for your computer, specially if it is older too, but may be too weak for newest modern phone.
