Very strange that it is unclear as to whether it accepts 32GB MicroSDHC or actually up to 64GB MicroSDXC cards?
It shouldn't be a mystery which card type it accepts.
MicroSDXC ONLY comes in 64GB.
at 32GB, they are only MicroSDHC.
This has been very unclear at most retailers' sites and even a bit unclear on SanDisk's site, leading to confusing among almost everyone!
If you were to try to research what the differences are between the 32GB MicroSDHC versus the 64GB MicroSDXC, i.e. their actual read AND write speeds, whether or not they are UHS-1 compatible or not, etc, you'd find yourself scratching your head as none of the websites and product pages are consistent! Even Sandisk's own site, as well as all the mainstream retailer's sites, are very wishy washy and inconsistent in the information they list for these 2 products!
Wonder what's up with that?
May I ask if any good folks here on this site/thread knows?
Thanks in advance.
It accepts xc. Im using one of the 64gb cards right now.

i was just wondering what the best class 6 microsd card available in the uk is. i know people are saying a-data is very good but i cant seem to find one on the uk. i have tried a google search but the websites are american and prices are in dollars. help would be much apreciated. thanks in advance
edit: i currently have a kingston 8gb class 4 sd card but i dont think tis good enough to run the latest hero builds. also does using an adapter to transfer files effect the speed and is it better to use a usb adapter instead of a card adapter?
This site seems to have some good prices: http://www.7dayshop.com/catalog/def...rwords=microsd&go=SEARCH&comp=&page=1&sort=3d . They are apparently not the quickest shop.
One guy on that site claims the transcend class 6 is slower than his Kingston class 4, but gave it 4/5 and bought a second... I think the Kingston is quite quick for a class 4 anyway, the rating system is a little wacky and no-one verifies it.
ok thanks. does anyone have a transcend 8gb card that can comment on the quality/speed?
http://www.amazon.co.uk/SANDISK-MOB...1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1251474559&sr=8-1
I thought this was quite cheap for a well known brand.

I was in the exact same situation as you, live in the UK and couldn't find an adata card that everyone was raving about. I settled on a Transcend 8GB Class 6, and I have no complaints. I have *never* had the card show up as damaged, and have never had any issues with apps2sd and swap. The speed is decent too, never had a write speed bellow 6mb/s. I'd go for a transcend if I was you.
I bought two 8 GB class 6 microSD cards on eBay that are being sold as "FOR NOKIA E90 N95" and so far they're both working great (one is in my G1 and the other in friend's BB Storm).
I did read/write tests and they are not fake as far as I can tell and the price is really good, compared to branded products.
ok thanks guys. i seem to have found a website that sells adata memory card in the UK but im not sure if if they are reliable or not so i might stick to the transcend and sandisk ones.
This is a pretty darn good price for a 32GB micro sdhc! Also being Sandisk brand, they usually go for more. It doesn't specify what class it is, but its probably class 4? Anyways, its only $56 and eligible for Prime shipping! The msrp is $138 on the official website. Sweet!
Here's the official link on Sandisk's page...http://www.sandisk.com/products/mobile-memory-products/sandisk-microsdhc
EDIT: I guess this card is a Class 2, according to one of the reviewers at Amazon. They also said it performed very well though.

I use one of those for my evo, it works fine. Then again the evo came with a class 2 card so theres no reason why it wouldn't, its just initially putting stuff on there takes more time, read speeds are totally adequate for a phone.
I think the quality of the sandisk cards are great, I have a three year old 8gb in my tablet right now and it works flawlessly. That is a great price,but it seems kind of slow given current options out there. I'm probably going to buy a 16gb class 10. This patriot one seems like a good deal.
That patriot card is great. I actually have it in my tf right now. I've done speed tests on it that came out pretty high. There is an app you can use called 'sd tools' in the market. Good card for the price!

I bought the Sandisk 32GB Class 4 version from Amazon for the price. It works great and when I watch 1080p movies there is no stuttering
Transcend make good cards too, for cheaper. I've been using a 16GB Class 10 SD with my camera for 5 months and haven't had a problem.
Although I haven't put it in a Transformer yet, I have the SanDisk 32GB microSD and through my SD card reader on a mac it tests at 5.1mb/s write, 13.9mb/s read.
Sandisk speeds
If the card is really slow, and it was cheap, it could be a fake, but don't jump to conclusions quite yet. I once bought a 16gb Class 10 SDHC card, and when I couldn't achieve the 30mb/s read (or anywhere near it) I contacted Sandisk.
I then spent the next week or so sending them pictures, serial numbers and other details such as where I bought it from and it took them a surprising amount of time to confirm whether it was genuine.
Once confirmed it was genuine, although I had a new sandisk multi-card reader, I had to get a specific sandisk sdhc only reader to achieve the fabled 30mb/s. Sandisk allowed me to send my current one to them and they sent me out one that would work to it's maximum capacity.
All this, just to say you can't trust the speed tests you get from windows or osx, as even when you have genuine cards and genuine readers, sometimes there's more to it than that. When I contacted Sandisk I mentioned that they should make it more clear, as nowhere do they say that you need specialist readers to get the best speeds!

I Just ordered this one, then I started to read some of the negative feedback concerning android devices (some sort of compatibility issue?)
...Should I be worried?
I just bought one for my tf 32+32=64
So I understand the current limit for the phone is 32gb, what's the cause of that limit though? An android limitation or hardware?
I'm curious as to if the new SanDisk Extreme Pro 64gb cards would work in our phones..
http://www.engadget.com/2011/09/14/sandisk-outs-extreme-pro-64gb-sdxc-mobile-ultra-microsdxc-new/
Well, if I'm reading things right then there's no hardware compatibility issues between SDHC and SDXC.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital#SDHC_and_SDXC_compatibility_issues
So theoretically SDXC cards should work with our phones. But at $219 for a 64GB microSDXC card, I'd hold off for now. If nothing else, this could help drive the price of 32GB microSDHC cards down.
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.

not in microsd format
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.
I just got my 128gb sd card, real one from SanDisk, popped it in and it works perfectly.
Get the real thing and you will love it. Get something generic off eBay and you will get ripped off.

I haven't tried it on my soon to arrive 12.2, but it works fine in my Galaxy Note 1 and plays 1.5 GB+ HD movies fine...on my computer running through a USB port.

Hello, which SanDisk 128GB card works for the PRO 12.2 and 10.1 2014? Could you please let us know the model number? Thanks.
SanDisk Ultra microSDHC and microSDXC UHS-I Cards SanDisk Ultra microSDHC and microSDXC UHS-I Cards
128GB 30MB/s microSDXC 10 Yes
SanDisk Ultra microSDXC UHS-I card for cameras SanDisk Ultra microSDXC UHS-I card for cameras
I can confirm that it does work in the Galaxy Note 12.2 as well as the Note 10.1 2014 Ed. and the Note 3.
Still ? 128gb card
Which is better? Which will work? Samsung technical support claims SDXC w/n work. I naive as I am, turn to experts here and ask... SDHC or SDXC? Teach me.

MicroSDHC and MicroSDXC will both work.
MicroSDHC was originally made to have cards over 8GB (not 100% sure on this number). MicroSDXC was created to break the 64GB limit and the speed limitations with Class 10 cards.
MicroSDHC is an older standard and should work fine. MicroSDXC is newer, but was created well before this tablet was created and should also work fine.

The most important question to ask is "how much space do you need?"
For me, 64GB is too little. I have several seasons of several shows and films on it. Between the extended LOTR trilogy in 1080p, 3 seasons of Sherlock in 720p, 4 seasons of Waking the Dead in Divx, 2 concerts in DVD and a music folder of 20GB, I'm well out of space.
Now, if you don't bring that much videos, or you have no problems bringing an exFAT drive with you, 64GB is more than enough. 4.4 no longer supports apps to write to the SD, so using it for app files has become redundant. (Unless you root)
You're probably off cheaper buying two 64GB cards, keeping one in your wallet and swapping them around.
If like me you need that much space (And swapping cards on a train is hell), the 128GB might be worth the money.
As for quality, both are fine.

Yes, well worth getting a quality sd card. Samsungs cards are super high quality. The cheap cards wont run videos.
