Yup
See here.
Ignore the G1 comments, it will work on any phone.
I did a search for 16GB microSD on eBay today and it's very tempting.
http://shop.ebay.com/items/_W0QQ_nkwZ16gbQ20microsdQQ_armrsZ1QQ_fromZR40QQ_mdoZ
The price tag is around USD100.00 with S/H included.

I am going to buy a 2G MicroSD, but I have read quite lots people saying that Sandisk and Kingston 2G are a bit thicker than 1G and they will be stuck in the card slot when u insert them.
But on the other hand, lots of people also saying that they are using Sandisk and Kingston 2G MicroSD without any problem.
That really make me very confused.
In my living area, what I could buy 2G MicroSD are Kingston (Made in Japan/Taiwan and China) , Sandisk (Made in China) , Toshiba (Made in Japan) and Transcend (Made in Taiwan)
Has anyone tried any of them before? Could u tell me how's the performance on X01HT?
Thanks a lot!
Hey man,
i'm currently using a sandisk 2.0gb microsd without any problem what-so-ever. I was under the impression that all microsd cards are of the same form factor and all are the same size. Maybe there is a label of some sort on some of them which makes them thick enough to get caught? My Sandisk does not have a label, just white print on the top of the card.

Thanks mate,
I might go for Sandisk or Kingston, but actually the price go up lately (so I need to wait...) and also some people said sandisk is a bit slower than other brand (except Ultra/II/Extreme Series). Do u think so?
Appreciated!
and,
for anyone who is looking for the best bang-for-buck, a 2gb PNY microsd from tigerdirect.com is only $32.
I used a 2gb PNY full-size SD in my treo for over 2 years, and never once had a problem.

I have just checked price of kingston, 2G MicroSD in my area, now is US$25.5
But it was US$23
I am waiting for price drop....usually it drops every couple months here.
The current 1G Kingston I am using , it was $US10.3.
I purchased a Kingston 32 gb class 6 micro sd card for my phone. I began to copy over the contents of my current card, but im at work and had to step out. I told a coworker that if they also had to leave to please just close the screen of my netbook so that its contents would be secure, hoping that it would have finished copying. It was not finished and the screen was closed putting the netbook into standby. When I returned and turned the comp back on the copy progress screen was blank and just all white as was the window depicting the contents of the card. I had to restart the computer as after 15 min nothing had changed. Now the card is not recognized. I checked it in my phone and computer and it says no disk is present. I put it in the sd adapter and try to format and my computer says there is no disk. I am at a loss?? I just got this freakin card and for a great deal that ill never find again especially for a class 6! Does any one have any ideas for me to try?? I know that its not entirely related to X10's but I can't seem to find any other avenues for help. I would like to not right this card off
Any help is sincerely appreciated
Did ya get it off ebay by any chance? Didn't think class 6 32 gb cards existed yet. I've had 2 off ebay (class not stated) and they both turned out to b hacked 2 gb 1s, they were both "good deals" a bit too good! Got a refund for em both so got 2 2gb cards for free
If it was from ebay at a great deal price... you're screwed... bought one myself only to find out it was a dupe... never got my money back

Transcend , Sandisk makes one, Nokia has one, not sure who makes it. I have had this problem before.. you have to low level format it and it will be fine. any questions just ask.
I am thinking of getting a 32 gb class 6 from ebay as well. Hope I have better luck
I bought one from ebay a couple weeks ago for like 13 dollars and it arrived today. Just popped it in the phone and its saying 31.24 gb.
It's a kingston card. I'll try copying some stuff over and see how it goes.
EDIT. Copying my 11 gb of music over writing at 3.5 MB/s
Class was not stated when I bought mine. I just figured for 13 bucks i'll take the chance.

Yeah I started to transfer things to mine and after about 7 GB it wouldn't allow anymore on the card. Trying to format it, it was taking hours. Knew it was too good to be true.

Kingston has 32gb Sdhc micro cards, they are new.
the estimated price is around 110 dollars.
If you buy a card for 20 bucks at ebay you realy wonder why its a fake?
lets hope the price will fall fast
im gonna buy mine in a store not at ebay. Quality->Price
I think there is no support on the x10 for 32gb sd card yet. You also need an opptinal uppdate from windows update to read 32gb cards. And remeber its not sd carts you need to use its micro sdhc cards ;-)

FWIW, I have a Kingston class 4 32GB, it also works fine on 1.6 I have 5,000 songs with album art on it as well as things like the language modules from Swiftkey, etc and still have 2gb free.
I have had a 32gb micro sd sandisk for about 3 months now, no problems to report (UK) purchased online from Carphone Warehouse. Only issue is whereas android shows roughly 3gb storage free, when using mediascape to transfer music, it only shows 120mb of storage remaining - bummer

THERE ARE NO TRUE CLASS 6 32G micro SDHC cards.
And as a caution, here's a FAKE card marked Class 6 (and confirmed as fake by Kingston USA). I was lucky and got my money back when the seller was confronted (and is still selling these on eBay). The photo below is a FAKE card. Kingston's 32G is a class 4. Lexar's 32G is a class 10. The Lexar IS faster writing at 8-10mb while the Kingston writes at about 4mb; I have both Kingston and Lexar 32G.
NewEgg is a licensed reseller, you can get a nice 32GB card under $100 with a USB flash reader for it such as Kingston's MRG2+SDC4/32GB. I keep the usb reader on my keychain. You need a reader because these cards are NOT compatible with most older slot readers even when you put them in an adaptor for SD or M-Stick.
NEVER FORMAT IN WINDOWS!!!!! You may ruin the card's usefulness forever.
Windows will add cryptographic junk which is NOT compatible with Android. If you MUST format in windows go to the SD Consortium and get their format software http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter/

Well i got a 32GB Kingston Micro SDHC card from Singapore for about 120 Sing $ (4200 Indian Rupees). In India same card was not available and even the places i inquired they were asking around 10,000 Indian rupees..
Does anyone know if the Prime can use the 16 GB microSDHC Class 10 memory cards? I just got two of them off amazon because they were like 25.00 each with excellent reviews on speed. So I got one for my prime and one for my HTC Amaze. I just dont know if the prime can utilize the speed class and the SDHC standards?
Thanks!
you can use a card adaptor to fit the Micro into a standard SD slot..

Im pretty certain it can, yours is no different then any other 16 gig microsd. The New ones are MicroSDXC, and I believe I read somewhere that the Prime does support those, which currently go up to 64 gigs.

Is there 2tb microsd cards? I was thinking those were the full size sd cards
FYI if you want a 16GB Costco has been selling the sandisk class 6 for between 16 and 24. It is as fast as most others class 10

They don't exist yet, he was referring to the fact that documentation says that this new SDXC technology could theoretically support up to 2TB of data. But we currently aren't anywhere near being able to fit it that small yet, but the format supports it.
There's a memory card sale going on right now at Amazon, including microSD cards (no 64GB ones that I saw, but there are 32GB ones), if anyone is interested.

Was It A Real Sandisk 64 GB?
I have seen lots of complaints from people saying they purchased 64 GB micro sd cards off ebay and they broke really quick or they showed up as 32 gb cards. How does yours seem to be working with your phone? Any problems with it at all?

sandisk is another good memory card
I simply used samsung because I had these cards unused a long time ago...
I have had problems with Sandisk in Samsung phones but not sure if that issue has been fixed... That was a while ago...
Samsung 512gb SD card works well too...
I'm going to reopen this discussion, if folks are willing.
We all want high capacity cards. The Tab S4 is a laptop replacement tablet after all is said and done.
All Amazon prices.... (6/28)
So you have four choices....
SanDisk Extreme, 1TB (now available on Amazon) for $427. 88
SanDisk Extreme 512GB for $169. 99
SanDisk Extreme 400GB for $85.49
Or
And Samsung EVO Select 512GB for $100
According to reviews the SanDisk cards have a higher read speed than the Samsung card, but the same write speed.
Seems to me the 1TB card is just too expensive. The faster read SanDisk 512GB card is more than 50% more expensive the equivalent slower read Samsung card. The SanDisk 400GB card is half the cost of the 512GB card.
So which do you choose and why?
I currently have an older SanDisk 400gb card, am leaning toward the 512GB SanDisk. But salivating over the 1TB card.

Tab S4 is limited to 400gb sd card per spec or has it been tested with 512?
Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk
The SDXC format is good to 2TB. They had a similar low "upper spec" for my Tab S2 of 256GB and 400GB worked fine. Virtually everything I've read says that the upper spec they quote is not based on the reality of the hardware. The way one site explained it was that the upper spec is set by marketing based on the largest available card out at the time the marketing material was generated. If I could afford it, I'd go for the 1TB card without any worries
There are several, other card brands out there now on Amazon for 512GB cards around $100. It is hard to find direct head-to-head reviews of the actual 512gb cards, but it seems like it holds true that they all write at about the same speed, but SanDisk Extreme reads faster - but costs 50% more.
A possibly unrelated aside, I've attached a 1TB hard drive via USB without any issues outside of the pain-in-the-*$$ that NTFS gives. As far as I can tell in the memory manager, USB OTG drives and memory sticks are treated the same as the SD card.

Well, if you read the earlier posts you'd see I use a 512gb sd card...
What you need to remember is that the specs put out are generally what was available at the time...
No company is going to put out that the tablet will support a 2Tb card as that isn't currently available but that is what SDXC is supposed to support, then it will go to the next standard., Heck, most phones available at the moment won't support the 1Tb card according to their specs as these were NOT tested pre-release...
