Yes, it's compatible.

Make sure it is formatted fat32 by the phone.

Even I used the sandisk class 10 128gb on the first day without any problem. But you must formatted to fat32. I used guiformat to format it.

The only Disadvantage of fat32 filesystem is you cannot transfer a "single file" more than 4 GB.
And yes Xiaomi Rn3 supports upto 128GB memory cards On fat32 filesystem.

Memory Card

Just thought you might like to know i just put a 128gb Sandisk MicroSd in the slot and it worked straight out of the packaging with no special formatting
FAT32 or exFAT?

Sd card
I tested Samsung evo with stock fat32
My Sandisk 32gb class 10 seems to be insufficient. I'm gonna try a 64gb and maybe partition it to give more space on cm13?

Will a 128GB MicroSD card like this work?: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Real..._1&btsid=e8ae3442-763d-4f6b-92af-742983463db1
I'm about to get a Redmi Note 3 Pro (ordered from Top One on Aliexpress, will arrive next week) and I'm wondering which MicroSD to buy. I saw that one, it has 22.000 reviews, 4.9 Stars average, I was wondering if the 128GB version would work with the Redmi Note 3 Pro.

Thanks Wazzim,
If possible can you share your experience too.ex how is the performance after inserting SD card and format(FAT32 or NTFS) and any other observations.
Regards,
Sarvesh
FAT32 (never had NTFS)
has anyone tried with an exfat formatted card? I need mine on exfat, since I carry movies bigger than 4GB on it. Can anyone try if it works?
I'm pretty sure I had exfat but it asked me to format the card.

Afaik all MicroSD (also SDHC and SDXC) are supported up to 128GB. Maybe also above that, but thats what official supported.

I have accessed the SD Card with a SD Card reader in my windows computer. Then I deleted the exiting partition. Then I created a new one using FAT32. After this my Redmi 3 pro could access the sd card.
Hope this help you.

Exfat can work only on custom ROM along with custom kernel which has a built in support for this.'
Otherwise you will have to live with FAT32 on 64GB or above (just like I am)

Format the micro SD card to far32 if you are using stock kernel. Otherwise it will work fine on custom kernel.

sadly miui only supports fat32. tried exfat and it doesn't recognize the format.
use cm13 rom and custom kernel will get ntfs and exfat support!

You have tested a ext2/3/4 filesystem and it worked in the device w/MIUI ? I doubt xfs Or f2fs would work....
I might try ext3 later and report back

It can support upto 2TB Micro sd card, figures doesnt matter at all, Only Class matters. Redmi Note 3 supports SDXC class which has range of 64 GB to 2TB. Companies dont advertise it because of licensing issues.
It's officially 32gb......There are 3 types of SD cards in micro SD family. SD,SDHC,SDXC....... formatting like Fat 16, fat32, exfat owned by Microsoft. All OEMs pay royality charges for using its patients.
SD, format: fat16, range:128mb to 2gb (I don't know)
SDHC, format:fat32, range:4gb to 32gb(file limit:4gb
SDXC, format:exfat, range:64gb to 2Tb. (No limit)
Fat32 support maximum file size of 4gb per file. Try coping a file which is bigger than 4gb, SD card with fat 32 fails to copy.....exfat doesn't have this limitation.
Redmi note 3 or any phone that is labelled as 32gb supported can support SDXC upto 2Tb micro SD card,if you format that card to fat32. Ya you have 4gb file limitation...low and mid range phones avoid exfat license fee with Microsoft.
Also remember windows default format tool won't give option like fat32 when formatting 64gb or above. You only get exfat and NTFS. You need to use third-party formatting tools and format 64+GB card as fat32 to use it in officially labelled as 32gb supported phones. So thats why top range htc, Samsung, Sony with SD support labels upto 2tb, bcz they pay exfat formart support royality to Microsoft..
Hope this sd card doubts are cleared
format it to ext4 via twrp and when offered to format via android system just ignore.

(Redmi Note 3 Snapdragon Edition) Question Regarding 128gb Memory Card Support...

Hi...
I recently purchased Redmi Note 3 (Snapdragon edition).
And I am thinking of buying 128gb Memory Card for the same.
And want it support files larger then 4gb (single file size)
But after searching on internet, i didn't found any fixed information regarding the 128gb Memory Card support.
So can my phone support it?
I tried connecting the ntfs (memory card and pendrive both) on the phone but it shows error...
So i don't think it support 128gb due to fat32 size limitations..
Is there any way to solve the problems...
Note: Please i want to avoid use Paragon Mount and other similar software's
So i want to know:
Will my phone support 128gb Memory Card?
Can any changes such as rooting and custom ROM solve problem? (Although i would prefer avoiding this)
I also found out that some users after inserting memory cards of higher size (>32gb) reported 'Motherboard Damage' >>> is this possible?
Can higher capacity memory cards damage the phones motherboard ?
My Phone Info:
Snapdragon 650; 3gb RAM; 32gb Internal
Android version :5.1.1
MIUI 8.0.6.0
Thanks...
Ntfs is supported by cyanogenmod so u can flash that and your problem is fixed and yes it supports 128gb but do u actually need 150 gb in your phone.

MIUI supports 128gb formatted as FAT32. Limited to under 4gb file size.
If you need to connect usb sticks to your device get "Stickmount" app, but you wanted to avoid that?
FAT32 (Large) works fine. 128GB works.
I'm on RR 5.8.0. Using 128 gb sd card as adoptable storage, and it's fine.

Slow TWRP backup external SD ?

Hi, does anyone know a microSD card that works at high speed for TWRP backups? when I take the backup in the internal memory TWRP declared 60Mb / s approximately R / W and 5 Mb / s for the external one, it takes a full ROM backup in 30 minutes in the external one.
I have a Sandisk Class 10 64GB MicroSD (red gray).
Something better? 128GB. I would appreciate your help to buy another one.
Is there any chance that your microSD card is fake?
I use a Samsung one and i get almost the same speeds as internal storage.

I formated it from pc to fat32, try it. I get the same speeds with miui and RR.
Also which version of TWRP are you using?
I have the same problem on my Samsung note 8 using a 128gb EVO pro sd card from the same manufacturer and TWRP 3.2.1 but the write speed when backing up to external sd is awful and the card was ready formatted vfat
Did anyone find the cause and maybe a solution?
