Recommended SD Card? - Galaxy Note II Accessories

I have a 32 GB "class-10" SD card that I got from eBay for 17bucks, shows "HC" on the card, so I guess that's who it's by? It's supposedly class 10but I don't by it. Saving stuff to it doesn't always work, my phone says "Unable to save screenshot. Mass storage may be full".
This doesn't make sense as I have 28gigs left. I have 2gigs internal left. Do you think it's because I have a cheap SD cars or my phone/Rom is messed up? I'm running Beans 6.
Anyways! What class-10 micro SD cars do you guys recommend?

What?... lol jk anyways. HC means high capacity. And from what it sounds like you might have gotten ripped off. Ebay and amazon and basically any online store that isn't a reputable store(not saying they're not but you got more bad eggs than good ones online) is known for selling counterfeit sdcards. Or whatever the term may be. These are cars that are made to look like they're 32 gb when in reality they're 4. But I'd format and check it out on a pc first. And the card I would recommend is a samsung class 10 you can't go wrong with Samsung. The only con might be pricing if thats the case then go for sandisk but beware sandisk has about a 15% chance of being defective judging by the reviews.

Haha, oh! I'm not big on SD Card knowledge. Never really bought them. My OG Droid and Droid 3 had them, but never really used them. And then with my Galaxy Nexus that I had since launch, never had use for them, obviously, lol. But thanks!
I'll check out the Samsung ones.

I recommend the 16gb class 10 hd capable sandisk from best buy. It's $39.99 not they price matched amazon price at only 14.99. Can't beat that price plus you get hd quality card.

Highest capacity memory card

Is the highest capacity 32GB? Or has anyone tried 64GB
Sent from my VS910 4G using Tapatalk
according to the manufacturer 32GB is the highest.
OK great I was going to expand memory and knew it was labeled at 32GB just didn't know if it was hardware or software limited. Anyone maybe try otherwise?
Sent from my VS910 4G using Tapatalk
32GB is the largest micsro SD card I can find at the moment. Have you seen any available that are larger?
Update: Oh, okay some company called KingMax has one out. Couldn't find any larger than 32GB on Amazon though.
Final thought: 80 GB phone baby!!! I've already got about 32 or so movies on my 32GB SD Card. 10GB Music on the internal SD.
Yea I have found them around as large as 64GBs just was curious as to if anyone has made the jump and tried it out.
Whatever you do, don't get a cheapo one from eBay.
I bought a counterfeit 32GB card on eBay. (Google it if you're interested.)

They need to start making 200gb sd cards =). I need enough room to carry my entire music collection of flac albums with me.
Most SSD's are still priced a little higher than the general public is willing to spend, so generally any flash memory card larger than 64GB/128GB isn't really going to sell well enough for the OEM's to justify manufacturing.
Seeing as how no phone supports more than a 64gb card, you could have a 200TB card if you want but your phone will never support it.

What SD card do you recommend?

I am still using the stock 2 gb card that came with my Incredible. I'm looking to get a bigger SD card preferably an 8 or a 16 gb card. What class, size, brand, etc do you guys recommend? Thanks in advance..

They're all pretty much the same. Never heard of a 'bad SD card' company.
I don't think our phones can take advantages of anything above a class 4, so it'd be a waste of money really to spend it on a higher class aka faster card.
This would be my first choice:
http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-micro...H0SC/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1316312237&sr=8-2
It's actually the card I've been using for a year. Works great, quick and still a lot of room left on it.

I'm not sure I ever actually understood the whole speed thing. Is it how fast stuff is read off the card by our phone, or how fast things transfer from my computer into the card?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
speed ratings are how fast data is WRITTEN to the card.
The Incredible only came with a 2GB card? I'm still using the 8GB card that came with my Eris. Unfortunately nandroid backups take up so much room on this phone, I usually can only store 1. I'm not sure I want to invest in one since most phones seem to be coming with 16GB ones now.
Yeah.
I guess to break it down a little more, our phone only uses
- MicroSD
- Class 4 (classes are just speed ratings for the card and I do not believe our phone supports higher than 4 - not to mention there's nothing practical that you would need to go that quick on a phone anyway)
- Up to 32 (HTC says 32) // Verizon says 16.
I don't know of anyone who has used a 32, again I don't think it's very practical unless maybe you have your entire music library of 20,000 songs on your phone.
I have tried 3 different cards, PNY, Kingston, and San-disk. I have had issues with, PNY and Kingston, but never with any issues with San-disk.

I'm using a 32 GB SanDisk with no problems. I just didn't want to go through the hassle of buying a 16 GB only to replace it with a 32 GB later. I'm only using 12 GB and most of that is nandroid backups that I could probably get rid of.
The sweet spot price wise is probably the $15 16 GB instead of the $60+ 32 GB. But if you want/need 32 GB, it does work.
i have a 32gig scan disk and have had no problems with it.
Be careful when purchasing SD cards on eBay or 3rd party retailers on Amazon because there are a TON of counterfeit cards out there.

You're right on that. Basically, if the deal looks to good to be true, then it probably is.

I would get the largest size card you can afford...then you can keep as many apps on it, music, pics, etc on it, and save the internal space for cache and not have the phone go crazy if you forget to clear it in awhile.
I personally have an 8GB and I'm considering getting a 16 or above, but 8 is a great size if you have a DECENT music and video collection along with games otherwise I would get a 12GB-32GB if you have tons of media. Click thanks if this helped!

I actually read up on what sd cards perform well as they have benchmark scores on the Toms Hardware site. The Kingston 8gb class 10 is really good. I got around 16 mb/s write speed and 19 mb/s read speed. Not too shaby for $9 on Amazon, and they have the 16gb for $16. Also, if I remember correctly the 16gb performed a little better than the 8gb, but both are perform well.

This right here. While physical stores can also get hit with fake cards, the big dumping ground for cheap chinese knock-offs is ebay and third-party Amazon sellers. Buy one, and you're likely to get a much slower card, the wrong capacity, or just a lump of SD-shaped plastic. you're better off going to wally-world, beastbuys, or a reputable e-tailer like new-egg.
That all said, SD cards are pretty much a commodity item, meaning they're more or less all the same. The Dinc itself I believe can only read around Class 4 speeds, but that's no reason not to go ahead and get a nice fast Class 10 card. Sooner or later you'll probably want to use it in another device or in your PC and it's nice to have the breathing room. I usually buy Sandisk when I buy them, but they're essentially indistinguishable.
And on a tangentially related topic. I see that the Galaxynote 2 is going to be one of the first devices to use SDXC cards... who else is ready to dump 2 terabyte SD cards into their phones to keep their whole lives on? :highfive:

I would have rather had a 32 GB than my 16. Once I load music and a couple movies its full.
I don't like having to watch the storage that close.

looks great finally google solved the storage issue only issue is that most people already have bought the 16gb varient and if this releases they are stuck with 16 gig unless they sell the 16gb and buy a 32gb version
I saw this like an hour ago and I would jump on this as soon as it is released. I got the 8 GB and after about a week I regretted not getting the 16 GB because 5 GB definitely isn't enough for backups and a lot of high definition games.
Oh my god, PLEASE be real!
They are real, some shops in my country are offering them for 30€ more than the 16gb version

Another website explained the Carphone Warehouse refers to the Samsung Nexus S as the "Samsung Nexus 2", I assume because it came after the Nexus One.
Personally, I would rather they made one model...an 8GB model at $199 with an SD Card... If these things sold as good as one would believe, that simple change would have made this thing sell twice as good (in my opinion).
Yea that would make sense but I read an article a week or so ago that explained why the Nexus devices don't have SD slots: its not because they're forcing us to use cloud storage its because they're trying to get rid of the two different locations for storage. There weren't chips big enough to add a crap load of storage until now (I believe Samsung just released their 64 GB chips). I wouldn't mind not having removable storage as long as there's like 32 or 64 GB worth.
Most likely this wont happen but it be pretty awesome if Google made it an option that you could send in your N7 to them and then they could update it for you for an extra 10-15 dollars to 32GB. I would be first in line to do this.

The memory is built-in right? Then theres no way that can happen because they would have to replace your whole motherboard.

Actually you could do this yourself if the only design change is the increased RAM.
The display is the most expensive part of the Nexus. If the form follows function of the 32GB, you'd simply purchase a repair MB for the 32GB model to put into your 8 or 16GB model.

Personally, I'm using a 32GB and it's doing me just fine. I wanted to get a 64GB after seeing that deal, but couldn't justify it at that price. Whenever 64GB cards normalize down to about $40 or less, I might upgrade, but for now a 32GB card is fine for me. I only paid $20 for my 32GB card and it works quite well.
I had a 32 gig that I was using in my Note 1, but I ran out of space, so bought the 64 gig a couple of weeks ago. When you have a few different ROMs, titanium backups, nandroid backups, movies and mp3s on there, it adds up pretty quickly.

a class 2 card will do just fine for 99% users...it's gonna suck if someone is putting tons of data on it at one time but the acutal functionality of it will be juuuuuust fine...
i, ordered this thing http://dx.com/p/sd-to-microsd-transflash-card-converter-module-27001 and will attempt to use a 128GB SD card in my Note II...i performed a rather crude experiment to see if it could fit under the battery cover...it buldges a tiny bit but it's hardly noticeable...
worst case scenario i'll have a 128 gig sd card laying around...LOL

Well, the risk depends on how much your data is worth to you.
I don't see the point in trying to save money by getting "cheap" memory.
If it fails, you're f&cked.
There's always a chance of memory failing, but the chance is higher if it's a cheap copy.
Cheap batteries, cases, adaptors etc. are a "try it, and if it breaks, has a short life span, or doesn't work properly, I'll buy another one" situation.
If your SD card fails and you haven't copied your photos, or whatever, to another location, buying another SD card won't be much use.

I agree with everyone so far. There are a lot of fakes being sold..ultimately it's your decision. If u do decide though..if it's legit u can check the serial number with sandisk..if that's good then ur lucky..and that seller probably is selling stolen goods..

If you could afford SGN2 I suppose you can afford an OEM Micro SDXC
I recommend getting a class 10 64 gigabyte microSD card and partitioning it into 2 partitions, one for your files and one for your apps. Then use Link2SD and you can automatically install apps on the second partition. This way you will worry less about filling up your 16 gigabyte internal storage. This is what I was doing on my Galaxy S3.

I would buy a cheap memory card. I have mines in sync for dropbox so at worse I would lose the pictures from that past hour. Mines is a cheap Microcenter 32GB class 10. They offered me same day replacement if it fails.
I would never even consider getting a cheap battery. If it breaks or doesn't work properly it could take my phone with it. I had some cheap batteries before for the old epic 4g. Both of the batteries started to develop cracks around the body despite not being damage. That could have caused problems if I hadn't notice. Cheap cases could scratch your phone and sometimes the expensive one could too but I don't hear about it as often as I do with the cheap ones.
Adapters really depends on what they are for. I heard, don't know for a fact, that some of the off brand MHL adapters for our device don't always work and when they do they aren't as good as doing 1 to 1 as the Samsung adapter are. I would love to see someone test out the different ones to see if there is actually a difference. With monster HDMI and normal HDMI there might actually be a difference but as long as there is enough data it will form the same signal which means they both should work the same despite the difference in the amount of data transferred. But with audio, cables can make a world of a difference.

Thanks on the Link, wasn't a 100% on all the class speeds and what not and this helped. I just popped in my old 8gb card from my previous phone and was looking to grab a 64Gb card and it looks that it will be a class10.
Just got my Sandisk 64GB Ultra. Got it from newegg and works great so far. Tested it with H2W to make sure it was really 60GB

I guarantee you will get screwed. You will not get the full space and the speed of class 4 is practically useless

Space you always get "screwed" on due to manufacturers using 1000mb=1gb instead of the ACTUAL measurement of 1024kb=1mb or 1024mb=1gb
But the class is something I agree with. class 4 is a bit slow. the other thing you have to look out for is if the class seems to be awesome for a small price, youre probably getting a class 2 instead of the higherclass advertised. been burned by this one often sadly. I no longer buy SD cards on amazon that arent US based lol.

I want one of the new Samsung Evo cards.
Meant to be very fast but expensive.
With a Class 4 card, you will not be able to take Zoe's. The device will tell you the card is too slow. Saving pics and videos will also be slow, and you might get stuttering playing saved video, although music should be fine. Get a class 10 if you can afford it.

I had a cheap no name 64gb sd card and that was awful. Matters with video and music reading. Now I have a transcend premium one and it is wonderful.
best, check ebay for decent prices
Thanks for the info.. Going to pick up a class 10 64 GB card

Unfortunately, eBay is awash with counterfeit SD cards. No name brands doctored to look like well known brands, and higher capacities (why the above reply mentioned getting "screwed" on the capacity). Folks on XDA have literally gotten SD cards where they peeled off the label (which said major brand, 64 GB, etc.) and found a label for a no-name 16 GB card underneath.
eBay is a great place to get deals, for sure. But unless you have a definitive reason to believe the seller and the product is legit, you really have no way of knowing if you are going to get counterfeit trash.
For this reason, I prefer to stick with reputable sellers like Newegg for certain things like SD cards.
