I hope this is the right sub-forum, it doesn't look like it has one for all of the sub-models of this phone.
It's the austin_g with the mt6833 chipset, the 4gb/64gb version, not the 6gb/256gb version. All of the other hardware is the same, I think.
I don't know if I'm supposed to post links. Wikipedia says 512gb. It says only the Stylus has 1tb, but it doesn't show the 4gb/64gb version. The MetroPCS page says 1tb. But the REVVL 6, which uses the same chipset, supports 2tb external storage.

Today i received a 64gb Samsung pro micro sd cats i had purchased from amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00KRDHRMO/ref=twister_B00K19DH6E?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 however upon benchmarking it with A1 SD bench app i noticed i got lower numbers than i did with my 64gb evo card which was around half the price and advertised with lower speeds.
I consistently got around 38mb read and 20-21mb write on the evo however with the pro i am getting around 34mb read and 20-21mb write. I have seen others on here get 70+mb read and around 60mb write with the same micro sd benchmarked with the same app.
Anyone got any idea of what's going on?
Need some advice guys, i need to know what's up with the micro sd before i call Amazon and accuse them of sending me a fake or faulty card
I don't know what is going on with your micro SD card. All I can offer you is my story. I bought a Samsung 64 GB Pro microSD from Wal-Mart and it was DOA. Returned it and bought one from Best Buy which worked 100%.
I know sometimes there's just a defective item, but here's what I noticed about the differences in packaging:
1. With the item I bought from Best Buy, the main graphic at the top of the package was in a brilliant blue color. The main image on the Wal-Mart item was greyscale.
2. The blurb on the front of the package stating how fast the read/write speeds on the Wal-Mart package was twice as large as the font on the item I bought from Best Buy.
I don't know if Samsung uses different packaging to differentiate selling through different stores/channels or if Wal-Mart got a batch of counterfeit product. I don't know if this story applies to your situation or not, but I need to buy a new card for a new tablet showing up in a few days & for sure I won't be buying it at Wal-Mart.

My sd card came in Amazon's frustration free packaging so i am unable to check if the packaging matched your micro sd from best buy, it's troubling that there are so many fake micro sd cards around.
Have you ran a benchmark on your phone/tablet using the a1 sd app? It would be interesting to know what you're getting as i can't seem to get higher than 34-35mb read and 21mb write despite it being advertised as 90mb read and 80mb write, i know I'm unlikely to ever reach those numbers but i was expecting more than what I'm currently getting.

I ran the A1 SD app on both my Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 and my Galaxy S5 which both have Samsung Pro SD cards and didn't achieve much higher benchmarks than you did. This is because of the limitations of the SD controller chip in nearly all phones and tablets. These devices don't need those kinds of speeds that are the upper end of these Pro cards. You'll need something like a high-end DSLR camera if you wish to take full advantage of these cards.
I saw some of the posted results on the community page for A1 and a lot of those high results look suspect. I only bought the Pro cards myself because they weren't much more than the Evo ones and I may use them in a high speed device someday. My main attraction to Samsung SD cards was that they are water-proof, X-Ray-proof, and magnetic-proof.
Bottom line, I don't think there's anything wrong with the Pro card you bought, but you didn't gain any speed benefits upgrading from your Evo card due to hardware limitations of your device(s).

Well that sucks, i mainly purchased it for my tablet and will most likely never use it in anything else (other than maybe a phone) but the pro cost me twice the price of the evo.
Is it possible that the benchmark results we are getting with the a1 app are false? I ask because if they are accurate then the cheaper evo card is actually faster, 10 out of 10 times the evo consistently gave me higher results which doesn't really make sense even if the phone/tablet was limiting it, surely it should have been at least the same speed?
If the app and the pro card i received isn't to blame then i think people should know the evo performs better on their phones and tablets.

I'm looking for either a 128gb or 256gb micro sd card and I want to have the same experience as using the internal storage for recording 4k/superslowmo and using apps on sd cards.
But I don't want to overspend either, I don't know up to what speeds/classes the phone can utilize.
There's cards like Samsung evo plus 128gb for 60euro, cards like lexar 1000x 128gb at 95 euro with UHS II Bus all kinds of things I got lost in the sea of classes and speeds.
What cards did you guys get and can anyone recommend me something?
I use sandisk ultra 200 gb and no problem @all with 4k
I got a samsung evo select 128gb and it is pretty damn snappy.

I use that also.. I think... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CO48M36/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Up to 95MB/s Read and 90MB/s Write speed with Class 10 and U3 compatibility
that was the fastest card available when I bought it, nothing was faster with high storage. I see 256gb cards now but haven't really looked into any or the specs
I got Samsung Evo+ 128 GB UHS-I U3 (100 MB/s read, 90 MB/s write) for 55 euros (just google MB-MC128GA/EU - NL Samsung site for this card) . There is also 128 GB Adata Premier One UHS-II with read 275 MB/s, write 155 MB/s for ~150 USD. 256 GB version is for 289 USD (amazon) - dunno why, but in Czech it is for ~210$ ^^. In your case, I would go for Samsung
Got the Samsung one now

I'd recommend the SanDisk Ultra 200 GB MicroSDXC UHS-I Memory Card as a good balance between capability, capacity and cost.

I purchased Sony 128GB UHS-I Class 10 SDXC Memory Card (SR-G1UY3A). Performance is simply awesome. It cost me Rs 5k.
I'm disappointed with XZP's sdcard access speeds, especially when the sdcard encryption is enabled. With my Samsung Evo+ 256Gb I got the following speeds:
About 7Mb/s read/write (with enabled encryption)
And about 70/40Mb/s (read/write) with disabled encryption.
What real speeds have you got?

Is this still a problem? I prefer to always have my stuff encrypted and had this same issue, so slow it's almost unusable. Wondering if any of the updates or anything have fixed this issue or not.

Yes, it's still a problem in Oreo. I have up to 10mb/s with enabled encryption.

Have you tried any other micro SDs or just the Samsung Evo+? I was thinking about getting the 2017 one, Samsung Evo Plus 256GB, but it seems like it will probably be the same, I think the only difference between that 2016 version is 10MB/s on Read speed. Would be interesting to see if certain cards do better than others, I would like to know if a A1 rated card also has this problem.
Hey guys. Thanks for all the helpful input. What would you say is the primary benefit of the additional storage of a 128GB to 256GB SD Card? I feel like on other phones without expandable memory, I never really reach capacity on 64GB models. So I probably used more cloud storage out of necessity and just got used to it. What are you guys using all this glorious storage for?

4k por... Oops I mean scientific ebooks etc.
All jokes aside... Having that bit of extra storage can give you the freedom to record, capture and download as you please!
Especially for people like me who hardly use online storage. I have the Samsung Evo Plus 256gb (2017 version) and I have so many 4k HDR10 movies and documentaries stored on it. I also dont have to worry about running out of space by constantly shooting 4k videos.
Having higher storage takes away all the limitations of having to transfer your files whenever you need to download new material.
I'm getting 72mb/read and 40mb/write even though the Micro SD card is capable of achieving higher speeds. This is due to the phone and I hope that android will find a way around this with upcoming updates, unless it's a hardware issue of course.
These speeds are more than enough for regular everyday use as I haven't faced any issues with reading/writing colossal files.
Hope this helps

You had me at 4k por... LOL. But seriously, I have never even seen 4K video let alone shot in 4K, so I am looking forward to checking it out on this glorious screen. Still think I may only opt for 200GB unless I find a really good deal (I will check the model you listed above). Doubt I will be able to even fill that but who knows. LOL. Thanks again.

Do you know the reason why?
It seems to meet the minimum spec requirement.
sorry I do not know the actual reason, just that it does not work.
I suspect it has to do with testing and QA. Usually software editors only support installing software on tested platforms and it is possible that they have elected not to do that on our tablet after a cost benefit analysis.
Huawei Tablets sales volumes are not as high as the units supported by fortnite.

I bought the 32GB/3GB ram model which arrived today, annoyingly doesn't work as you said.
But the 64GB model with 4GB of ram and OS 8 meets the requirement for fortnite. According to epic that is the min requirements. So although it may not be on the list, it should work. Assume you only tried 32GB/3GB ram model? or is it confirmed the 64GB/4GB ram model doesn't work either?

Thanks buddy.
Very strange indeed.
I see conflicting information. According to Sony the max SD card is 512Gb however almost every site that shows specs for the Xperia 1 lists 1Tb as the max size. For example GSM Arena, which is generally pretty good for that sort of info.
I know for example that my Z Ultra will take 128Gb even though the max size stated by Sony is 64Gb. I just got a 200Gb card for my Z5 Premium and I kind of wish I had tried something bigger, although 200Gb is a lot. I have had the Xperia 1 for a couple months now, and while I do appreciate the 128Gb storage built in, I am getting to the point where I really need some more.
1Tb cards are considerably more pricey than 512Gb cards so it's not something I want to just try and see what happens. That being said I'm not really sure if a 1Tb card fits my budget right now anyway.
Sony website shows 512GB as the max SDcard size.
However in my experience, SD cards larger than the max size stated by the manufacturer have worked just fine. Haven't tried personally on my X1 though.

I'd love to have another TB on the phone but I may end up sticking with 512GB for now just because of cost.
I'm also curious if there is a benefit of getting the A2 speed card over the A1 speed. I've used only A1 speed cards thus far in my phones and cameras, however I imagine that the Xperia 1 may actually be able to make use of the higher speed card.
Any thoughts on that?

I have an A1 card in my X1 right now, and I'm satisfied with the speed, and to be quite honest, I can't see any point in spending extra to get an A2 card since I don't do frequent transfers of data between Internal Storage and SD, nor do I do a lot of 4K video recording to external storage, where I can imagine that faster external storage would be beneficial.
I can assure you that a 1TB micro SD card works on my Xperia 1 flawlessly.
1tb SanDisk A2 micro SD card works flawlessly. Using Xperia 1 9110 firmware 55.1.A.0.748.
Haven't seen this discussed but there is a feature to add 3gb of RAM to the device. I've got the 8gb ram model with 256gb storage. Now I have 11gb of RAM.
I was told it was only for the 256gb models.
If it's pure Swap like in Linux/Windows it's next to worthless. If its ZSWAP it's better but even it was seemingly dropped in favour of ZRAM later.
In the meantime, a new, cheaper 8GB version of Mi Pad 5 Pro without a cellular just launched.
