Well let me know whats up because if its real I'll get one asap.
Same here. Worst case, we are out 35 bucks.

I do as well, but hell, if I am out 35 bucks I'll just do a chargeback or some such, or just eat the cost. It shows I should expect delivery between the 15th and 28th of March, so we shall see.
My gut feeling says it's counterfeit...but the fact the seller is charging such a low price for it makes it easier to 'take the hit' if it is in fact counterfeit.
It's mainly the fact that it's coming from China...and how they're notorious for selling fake memory cards and other merchandise. On top of that, that particular eBay seller doesn't have much total feedback, compared to other China eBayers who typically have many thousands.
Even though the shipment time interval seems to be between 3-5 weeks, who knows...you might end up receiving it much earlier (like in half that estimated time frame).
Keep us posted when you receive the goods.
I thought SD maxes out at 32gb. Anything larger will be SDXC. Does the note even support SDXC?
I also remember reading that counterfeiters will sell fake flash memory that reports itself as the correct size but is programmed to overwrite itself once it goes over the actual physical amount of space on the card. For example you bought a 64gb card and it's really only 16b once you load up over 16bg it will start overwriting itself.
He's also got a 32 GB card for $14
Too good to be true... either stolen or counterfeit is my guess. But for those who are getting it and gets it to work, Grats!

That's my exact card in OP.
I bought a extended battery from amazon (accessoryone I think) for $16 something a few weeks ago. With shipping it was under $27. The increased physical size was noticable, but not uncomfortable.
Performance is AMAZING. I leave everything running (data sync, 100% backlight, everything) and still have half a battery after an 8 hour shift of text and web browsing.
No clue on the sdcard, but now I know what I want next.

Ah, I can't use an extended battery because I have to clip my phone on my belt. I am NOT putting it in my pocket. Would also probably even up leaving it in my car - that's a no-no. Especially in deep south Alabama.
However, I say either way - go ebay. It's pretty much always cheap and most sellers for things like that offer free shipping.
As for it measuring up - well, I can't really say. It's done me good. Class 6 and it averages at... I would say 5.4mb transfer speed (to be safe) on Windows 7. Swap partitioned since say i got it and swap partition is still running smooth and hasn't died out yet. What more do I need from it?
naw you didn't come off condescending. and i have a four gig scan disk class 6 in my g1 right now and paid almost 40 bucks for it about a year ago when i get my in week in a week or two ill run some test and see what i get.
well i got my battery and its awesome!!! it didn't make it that much thicker either. when i get the card ill post some speed test
in case any wanted to know i seem to get about .10 mbs per seconds faster speed from a scan disk verse the top ram for the price difference get the topram.

I think this is a no brainer really. a 64gb micro SD card is like what $200+, to get 96gb on a 32gb model would be quite expensive, but if you get a 64gb model and then add a 32gb card, it would work out less.
and if you have a lot of full hi-def movies on a tablet, to take full advantage of the hi-res screen, you won't fit many films on a 32gb card.
Gobs of media files - music and pdf manuals largely. While wifi coverage grows daily, I'm not in a major metropolitan area so finding coverage can be a challenge. The cloud is great - if you can get at it.

Why do people buy 32gb?
I ordered the 64GB version because I can, I say it's better with to much space then to little. And I don't want to come in that position that I don't have enough space, don't like when I get limited because of the hardware.
videos and music is the main use. I first thought on to buy the 32GB + MicroSD card, but with MicroSD you are limited to 4GB files and that is not good when most of the movies are bigger then 4GB. (can be wrong about this)
And was there something wrong with this thread?

[Q] Why 64GB?
B/C $100 for double the disk space is a good deal.... and I'm not constrained by my budget... so why wouldn't I get it?
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
If you need to have 96 gb or more its better. It depends on what your using it for. Those who are buying 32gb I think have a very specific use in mind and know how much space they need or are just going to use it as a media consumption device.
Those that are buying the 64gb version probably fit in 3 camps:
1) can afford the space so why not?
2) are using it for work and know/need/want to make sure that they have all of their materials at hand if they have no connectivity (I need geo maps, research papers, my own work, and entertainment on the device.) and don't want to lug or power a portable device.
3) Commuters who want to have access to a large selection of media on the device.
I personally would love to have a 128gb chip or a few of them and dump my bulky external drive. Though I think their price is a little high yet. 1tb would give me wet dreams. (my current ext hd)
Though I do amit that even if I didn't think I had the need for 64gb I would have bought it as you can never add more to the device itself. Say if you buy 32gb and need 128 your spending more than if you bought 64gb and 64gb chip. Barring the fact that you carry a collection of chips.
Cheers!
I'm just trying to think of whether I would be able to make use of the extra space. I don't think "why not?" or "because I can" are good reasons
I feel like maybe there are some useful/cool things I could do with the prime if I had extra space, but I'm still not sure what that is. I only have like ~8 gigs of music. I don't feel like I need a large media library on my device, since I'll know the 1 or 2 things I want to watch at any given time.
Using it as a general storage device might be interesting though.

Sounds like you might be better with a 32gb version then. Just think of all you would want to put on it get an estimated size then how close are you to 32gb if you break it I would buy the 64gb if you don't come close a 32 with an sdhc for expansion would be good I think.
I also think because I can can be a valid reason, think of it like this at the price the difference is not much for double the storage. Personally being a dink(double income no kids) the extra cost is nothing but the cost of not buying what I need can be the difference between having a useful device with no extra work to a useful device that I have to manage what sdhc cards have want info, loaded, and hope I don't loose the other cards. Just dont forget the oppurnity cost of the device.
I don't get why people think $100 extra is a fair deal for the 64GB.
An Samsung 32GB Class 10 card is €30 in Holland, while we pay €100 extra for the 64GB version.
Because I need more than 128gb I think a >=96gb chip is more than 100? And 100$ just is not that much to me.
Well future devices will have up to 128GB of flash storage. It was just released a couple weeks back or so that they finally made it possible.

to get 96gb on a 32gb model would be quite expensive as a 64gb card is $200+, but if you get a 64gb model and then add a 32gb card, it would work out less.
and if you have a lot of full hi-def movies on a tablet, to take full advantage of the hi-res screen, you won't fit many films on a 32gb card.
Do you stream or do you store? Storing music, even if you have a large library, doesn't chew up tons of storage. Video, especially high-profile, does. Plex and PlayOn pretty much eliminate the need to store video locally. I only store stuff when I know I'm going to be on long plane flights without Wi-Fi.
I've got about 2K Rhapsody downloads on my 32GB and a couple of local MKV videos and am using less than half the storage. More is always better and once you buy it you can't go back but it's also kind of stupid to piss money away (no matter how much you claim to have) on something you're not going to use. And it looks like January for the 64GB's so that's something to consider too.
I'm the one who created the other thread. I finally decided for the 64GB for the following reasons:
-I can (i mean, it's not a real effort to pay the extra)
-Now i don't see the real need for the 64Gb, but i don't know if i will need them in the time i have it, as it's my first tablet. Having the 64Gb means if in the future i need the extra storage, i will have it. Having the 32Gb would mean the need to buy extra microSD cards.
-I travel a lot, and sometimes for long time. SD cards are fine, but internal storage means faster reads and less problems (like forgetting the sd or having it lost/broken for any reason)
-I plan on using it for a little gaming too, if the games start to need more space, i will already have it and not depend on the sd card. I hate having to watch which apps I can have or not have due to space in my Nexus One.
-I have a dSLR so i'd like to use it too for pic displaying and very basic editing if needed (with the dock + sd cards). This pics are quite huge (10mb each, ~30mb if shot in raw), so moving a few of them to the internal storage (for using without the dock) would be quite space consuming.
-Having a 32gb microsd card means 96gb instead of 64, which further expands this capabilities.
I can't depend either on music/video streaming. Most music I like isn't in cloud services and Google Music isn't available in Spain. My internet connection is pretty bad, and the router is even worse, with ocasional and random wifi disconnections.
With all this in mind, i just prefer spending a few more € on the 64gb and not fall short in some weeks.
Oh, i forgot the main reason. To stand up in the top of the mountain and laugh at the 32gb people

It's fantastic that you both have the resources. It's incredibly ostentatious that, for whatever reason, you feel the need to share it with others that may not be in your position. Between this and the post in the BB thread where someone's order got canceled because of a debit card issue and some schmuck posted "I don't need to worry, my credit card has no limit" I'd say there's a lot of people on this forum who need to validate themselves.

That's way out of the reason i posted it. The OP is asking for reasons to get a 64 gb model over a 32gb one. Pricing is one of the possible reasons so I included it in the list just because it was an issue i considered while asking myself the same question, so it might be relevant to the OP. If i were just to try to show how proud i am of the money i have, i would remove the parenthesis (where i state that if getting the 64gb is an effort the OP should consider the 32Gb instead). The last sentence was a joke that someone posted on my the thread i created for this same reason and i liked and copied it here. You can check it if you want at the link someone posted in this thread.
I would buy the 64gb version due to the fact that on Honeycomb you can not move apps to the sd card and maybe this will change with ICS so with games taking up a lot of space the extra memory would be nice.
Just wanted to know your guys opinion on the following sd card, is it a good deal?

My comment was in reference to the cost/benefit of the steep performance vs. cost slope of investing in higher class cards.
My friend and I bought a Class 10 32 gig for only $39. I personally do not like Sandisk as a brand and was pleased to not buy their product, but that is just my taste.
Class 10 32gig that was rated well cost me about $50.

surprisingly enough, its actually cheaper than the one you provided by like 20 cents after shipping and tax are calculated... yea the "newer" one needs shipping, but still no tax which is good...

Don't you think the onboard flash controller would be a limiting factor in the performance of that card? If a Class 4/6's performance on the Nook Tablet is near equal to the performance of a Class 10 on the Nook Tablet then wouldn't you think that the top end performance of the onboard flash controller is 6MB/s?
Just saying, a faster card may not be better, no matter how fast, or how much it cost if the onboard technology simply can't keep up it'll just work like a slower card.
Look at Micro Center's prices. They are a good gauge. Be careful buying ones off ebay, there are folks selling counterfeit ones.

I like to think that I'm thinking ahead. these were designed specifically with tablets and phones in mind. Right now I'm running a class 6 8gb I bought for my G1 originally. My phone is a shift, and I have a nook tablet in the way also. Once the tablet is fully and completely rooted and running cm9, it will be my primary android device for my work. The 8gb class 6 will go back to being my phones storage. As a side note, I have a 16gb class 4 card also. I could clearly see a difference running it. My phone would choke and sometimes corrupt the images when transferring numerous pictures at once via USB cable to my PC. Never had this problem before or after with the 8gb c6 card.
And, if nothing else ... I spent 30 bucks for a cool ass blue stripe! Lol.

It's called 'fixing' a SD card. There's a way to format the card where it fools the system into thinking that it's 32gb or 64gb, so that's what it will show up as 32gb or 64gb on the phone or computer, but in reality it's only 4gb. Long time scam, nothing new here.
Yeah... this is really strange. Get a suggestion and buy it from Amazon - real stuff & real price!
I get the feeling it's not actually 64gb. Not to mention that the card may have a high failure rate.
Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk
Acttualy if you check in alixpress.com you will find that 64GB card is 8 USD.
And that is a partly true. The other part is that 64 GB is written on the card but that capacity is 2 GB.
Once you max out the actual capacity your files get screwed beyond repair.
Worst gag gift ever!
I don't feel good on this one...
Are people seriously falling for these scams?
You honestly want class 10 high speed cards anyway as the Note 3 has USB 3.0... I sometimes like to take the card out the phone and plug it into my 3.0 adapter to get even higher transfer speeds on my 64gb card. (curious that the Note 3 slows the transfer rate down but whatever)
Just saw the thread title... Honestly, how stupid would you have to be?
Just don't do it. I learned my lesson with cheap SD cards. I had serious home button lag when waking the phone. Long story short switched to a class 10 Samsung 64gb and all lag is gone.

Never buy big cards except from top notch sellers like Amazon. Every single time I go for a cheap one on ebay it's a rip off. Every. Single. Time.

Alight yall.... so which one did you order?
I went with the 128GB - Black Sapphire, because of my music library collection, HD videos, Movies, and massive amount of pictures..... I actually need all the space that I can get..... let alone all my cloud storage's....
Plus don't we get 115GB FREE CLOUD STORAGE TOO? + 1 Year of NETFLIX FREE....
.
Very interesting so far....
I had a hunch that the 64GB variant would be the most popular. Two TM reps that I've spoke with even said that the 64GB's are flying off the shelves like hot cakes. Makes sense...
This comes to show...aside to the price difference, 64GB is plenty to have on board especially with Cloud Storage's nowadays. Now on the flip side IMO 32GB is too small for most users with a device of this caliber. However, some people just don't need that much space....
Mine should be arriving any moment now!
There's a lot more 128GB's ordered than I thought....nice...

There is going to be bias here too since most people on xda are devs or power users.

Pretty much this.
I would expect that the eventual spread, overall, will end up with 50-60% of users going with the 64GB variant (Edge or Standard), with the 128GB and 32GB variants splitting the remaining percentage, likely skewed somewhat in the favor of the 32GB variant because plenty of people are going to want the design/new phone smell without the super premium cost of the 128GB variant. Forums like this one though will see similar, though the skew would be in favor of the 128GB variant.

I would agree...I think in general, within and outside of XDA, that there is a ~50% split between the 32GB and 64GB variants. It's good that people are buying the 128GB too, because that will pretty much confirm the standard going into the future. I think it already is. For any premium phone today to not have 128GB as an option is not very smart. Soon 128GB will be the lowest offered I'd imagine, especially with the new design language and its unibody frame....imagine 512GB of storage option in the future LOL...at some point it'll become overboard, but as our cameras get better, video recording gets better, games get better and bigger..... 512GB is not a stretch by any means.
Very exciting stuff....:laugh:
128Gb, Gold. Verizon
I got the 32 gig sprint. I ordered mine on Amazon. I wonder if I get any free stuff with it.

You know.....the more I look at the Gold S6(E), I'm really wanting it now LOL! I actually like it a lot...over the black sapphire which is nice too, but dang that Gold looks so Classy!
Hmmmm.....I'm this "" close..... someone just push me to do it ROLF.
Good stuff ..:highfive:
I just went with 32GB Black. I keep my photos on the cloud, watch movies when I'm home and stream it. The only thing that takes up most of my room is my music but I don't have nearly enough music to fill 32GB as I buy my music still aha.

Do it. A T-mobile store near my house had the gold on display, man that thing looks sexy. It is soft gold, not like the Gs5 last year. I can't wait until May 1... Or by the way, May 1 is my anniversary too... Very special day hahahaha
