Just wondering what 64gb micro sd cards people are using? I've seen the cheap ones which you can get say 2 for £10 but are they even any good? Or is it worth spending the money on a sandisk or Samsung 1? Any ideas please

I did some tests on mircoSD cards a little while ago. SanDisk and transcend were the top in performance with Samsung closely behind.
I'll try and find the post i made, but XDA search is not working at the moment.
Its also worth while to note that lifetime warranty is important. or at least 10 years as faster tech will come out.
No that's understandable. I no about the lifetime warranty with sandisk. It's just there about 40 pound lol.

Hmmm... you should be able to pickup a cheaper SanDisk off ebay. International warantee.. I got my 64Gb ultra for $80 NZD
so... 32 pounds !?
IMHO, the cheap ones are just plain awful IF they work, and cheaper mainstream ones like Samsung and SanDisk off eBay are almost always fakes also.
It's worth spending a little to get the good brands from a reputable dealer, faster speeds, better reliability. The mainstream 64gb ones are around 50p per gb.

good point. anything really cheap is probably fake..
I went with the Sony 64 gig micro sd card. I just got my phone yesterday so I haven't really tested the card yet, but the reviews were amazing so I figured I couldn't go wrong. It was pricy, but oh well.
Sandisk 64GB Pro 30 MB/s for my Z1 and Sandisk 64GB Extreme 80 MB/s for my Z Ultra.
I'm using the Sandisk Ultra Class 10 which does the job, watching Blurays, playing FLACs without a hitch.
It was cheap too, about €40.
Gonna just go for a 32 or 64 sandisk I reckon

Comes with standard free shipping, so far so good for me, have had no issues, exactly as described. Figured I would share so you guys could take advantage of this deal also. Like I said its a Class 4 32GB SanDisk.

good find. its also on amazon.
I'm using that one and it works great
I actually just got this and must say it's wonderful to have so much space. Great price for a 32GB MicroSD card. Now, lets hope 64GB cards become cheaper!
Yea I checked on some higher class 32GB cards and the prices were outrageous, I run a Class 4 8GB from sandisk now so it will be a huge leap! Do our phones support 64GB?

You know, I never really checked out the compatibility of our phones with the 64GB cards, though I'm pretty certain they'll work.

And it sees the full amount? Just checked a few sites on specs and they say only up to 32GB, then again you can never know what is true or not. Most sites just say supports microSD card.

That's probably because they did not have 64g cards to test with when they started making the phone
I have one of these. Their awesome and super dependent. I sold my old iPod Touch 32gb , bought one of these and use my GSII as my music player and I made $100 so it realllllllly helps

Yeah, I read that since the 64GB were primarily exFAT formatted, they wouldn't work initially but after a format to FAT32 it worked perfectly. So after the price goes down (or when the 128GB cards come [we need em now XD]) I'll definitely get one.
Well thats good to know for future reference, really I only need this card for movies. All my music streams from the cloud, and I am not a huge picture taker, this will be my main card for quite awhile =D will wind up using it on my note or note 2 (or whatever they will call it) whenever I get that, well 64GB get to this price then maybe I will upgrade =P Still baffles me that you can fit 32GB on a fingernail size piece of plastic =P

16gb micro sd card for only $2.99 + s&h. Not a bad deal at all
http://1saleaday.com/
at 2.99 its a great deal no matter what..
but just FYI, for those going to pick up 1 or 2 of these, they are class 4 cards
but regardles, thats some good storage for the cheap!
I had no idea Kobe Bryant was so nerdy... wow. Ya learn something everyday.
I think the shipping is overkill since they add so much just for an extra card. They weigh nothing. Lol. Still buying 3, thanks for the post

Yea man that's a steal! Was just about to post this and saw you beat me to it! Highly recommend these for anyone thinking about it!
P.S. Class 4 has a 4mb/s minimum supported write speed.
They will occasionally post 32gb cards on the same site for $15-20. I bought mine from there a few months ago.
ya i feel ripped off now since i paid 20 bucks for my 16gb still prob buy a few for spares
thanks OP!
picked up 2 for 15.96
*it seems to be $8/pcs, i tried multiple items..
they charge $5 for s&h, but still not bad
Just a heads up guys. Amazon has the same card for $4. I'm pretty sure all class 4 cards are pretty much dirt cheap anymore

This is why i'm envious of Continental US folk. I'd probably have to pay $8billion in shipping and handling to get that SD card here to Hawaii.
Received and Tested
Received one today, and tested it,
results are:
Writing speed: 5.50 MByte/s
Reading speed: 17.4 MByte/s
Not bad, close to class 6.
Even with the $4.99 fee for s&h it is certainly cheap and worth it!
thx OP!
got my 2x16 in the mail today. $8/pcs
w/ the SD adapters.

Looking around I found a relatively cheap class 4 16gb sandisk micro SDHC Card.

You can't go wrong with SanDisk. Class 10 is their latest/fastest speed.
If you want to save money, find yourself a Class 6 which is the next one down. I purchased a Class 6 64GB micro-card from a Best Buy sale for $49. I'm sure there are similar sales online though I don't think Best Buy is doing it anymore.
Search for them on Amazon, lots of results!
Make sure the phone can handle a 64gb card before shelling out for it. I don't know the microsd slot spec on the GS3.

Whatever you buy, buy from a reputable seller (thousands of reviews not a few hundred) and not just on price. There are a lot of fake cards being sold. I bought a 32g SanDisk that was a fake, and it was only 8gb no matter what the card read as. The size can be fooled.
That said, I have not tried the latest SanDisk cards, but I have a SanDisk 32 class 6, and a Lexmark 32gb class 10. The Lexmark comes with a much nicer and more substantial usb adapter, the SanDisk came with the smallest utilitarian usb adapter. Both can be put on a key chain. I use the faster Lexmark in the phone. I find the usb adapter better than a sd card adapter which I tend to misplace, as well as being useful in computers without a sd card slot.

SanDisk 64GB Ultra MicroSDCX
I've heard nothing but good things about this card. It's pretty much top of the line too.
It's class 10 and UHC class 1. It's advertised as class 6 just because they haven't updated the web page, I emailed the seller.
It handles the 1080p video recording due to the fast read/write speeds.
shock resistant, water resistant (I think, go to sandisks website to view all the awesome details).
Anyways, this is definitely the card I'm getting. They offer a 32GB version as well, but that may be only class 6 (still probably plenty of speed).
Hi guys, i am planning to buy a 32 gb memory card for samsung galaxy s2.
Just need your opinion which brand is best suited , and also which class.

Anything that's class 10 is fast enough, eg for 1080p video. Transcend do a good one but if you don't mind paying a bit more then the SanDisk Extreme is excellent.

Sandisk Ultra Class 10.
I use class 4 16 gb instead of 32 gb class 10, feels better for me. Just look at the prices, there are these very cheap ones and expensive ones, try to buy one with a price that makes sense, in sd cards, generally pricey means durability, so focus on prices and get something your budget likes.

Hmm....currently using class 4 16gb sandisk with no problems. Thinking of expanding to 32 gb.
Price is secondary, i dont want to end up paying on a sd card which stops working after a few days of usage.

If yes, which one??

I have a class 10 32gb Lexar. It's read speed is brilliant - like all decent class 10 cards. It's write speed is quite low.
As a result I use my lexar sd for the storing of music, videos, apks etc. But I tend not to 'write' onto it with camera and video stuff. It will probably be fine but the write speed isn't that high so I don't want to risk errors or anything.
Thanks for ur advice guys
