If you can afford it always go with Samsung. SanDisk has an unforgettable fail rate.

That's not true by any means, I have owned many SanDisk products none have which failed. And to be honest the Samsung micro SD's are the ones that have failed more compared SanDisk.

it's true - amazon reviews recommended. also write speed on sandisks is painful-slow for 64gb card (10MB/s), where samsung is 20MB/s - still sucks but twice as fast

Maybe in the phone it might be slow but a micro SD card is not just meant for phone it can go into other things. When I use it in the PC through the adapter I get class 10 speeds if not faster.
Plus I'm not all about the fastest speed I'm more about reliability same thing when it comes to my SSD in my computer.

No joke. I have had 3 32gb class 10 microsd from Sandisk fail in under 1 year. 2 in my Note 2 & 1 just the other day in my Note 10.1 I think there is a known issue with Samsung Galaxy phones & Sandisk cards. Seems mainly like the 32gb ones, but 3 in under a year is seriously redonkulous. I actually had the csr admit there was an issue, & they issued an rma. Supposedly the newer batches of cards are fixed.
Running a 64gb Samsung class 10 & haven't had any problems in almost 6 months.
I guess I just have super magic lucky powers. Then again after getting an eBay dud I learned my lesson.
I think a lot of people buy cheap ebay crap and blame Sandisk.

Sounds like you were lucky enough to get 3 cards from the bad batch that was mentioned 2 or 3 years ago. I haven't read any legitimate articles on a specific incompatibility between Samsung and SanDisk, but rather SanDisk letting a bad batch get cut loose into the wild and now they're fighting mis-information years later.
Sorta like Hitachi fighting their infamous "DeathStar" hard drives or Toyota combating rumors that all of their cars have brake issues.
Sandisk 64gb micro sdcard class 10 I've had it for over a year now no issues at all.

I have 2 64gb sd cards. Both bought on ebay. One SanDisk and another a generic brand. Sad to say my generic brand lasted longer than my SanDisk and still running strong in my Note 2. Both were class 10. Generic one cost me $20 free shipping and SanDisk was $70.

I think the numerous reports of scandisc failures are enough to keep me away, as I haven't seen anything official about a "bad batch" a year ago. There seems to be a lot of speculation on the why, but one thing is clear they are failing all over the place. Best buy something else.

I had a few different micro cards but in my experience SanDisk hqs worked the best. Been having for several months a SanDisk 64gb class 10 and working great.before I had a Kingston 32gb and failed and before dad I had a 16gb SanDisk from the hd2 days and still have it working good. So I guess my best bet has been SanDisk.

I'm chiming in based on my first hand experience. For the record, I find Sandisk memory substandard. The company fails to stand by its product by deliberately being difficult. If you like playing russian roulette with your data, go ahead. Sooner or later your number will come up! To be fair, this can happen to any storage media manufacturer. But for some reason it seems to be more prevalent with sandik. I've read nothing but great reviews with Samsung memory but I guess that's to be expected.
Currently testing and using a class10 32GB microsd semi-no name brand "A-Data". So far, I'm impressed as one of the best value for the buck. I have a small batch of adata cards and when it passes all my durability tests I will deploy them throughout all my devices.

In my opinion samsung and sandisk are both the best, but samsung is little more better but cost also little more money, then in conclusion sandisk is the most used and i suggest to buy this (i also i've sandisk) but if you want the top then buy samsung.

Yes, the higher the class the faster the data read and write speed. but regardless, class 6 is plenty fast enough for anything you do on the phone. But since the price is so close to each other, I would suggest just getting the class 10. You can always use it on your digital camera (newer ones that support it) if you don't use it on the phone. fyi, make sure you format the drive in FAT32 (let the phone recognize the card first before putting it into your computer).

update
Received my Sandisk 64gb Micro SDXC card today and it was a complete FAIL. Tried to format it in the note, it did not work. Kept saying sd card is blank or is in unreadable format. I tried to format it in FAT32 via CMD on my PC, did not work. I tried to format with other programs did not work. Spent the last 4 hours trying to get this to work to come to the conclusion that I must've received one that was part of the bad batch that was released to the public. I will be returning this one and exchange it. *sigh I'll likley have to wait until next week to try out the new one since its a holiday weekend.
My note wouldn't read it out of the box. I put it on my S2 and formatted it under settings. Then my note started reading it. So you can prob try a different Android phone and format it from the phone... I thought I had one from a bad batch too at first but that fixed it. now it works like a charm.

nope. i never use ebay. I don't trust it. I got it from amazon. I will say this though...amazon was just the middle man when I first bought it. I returned it already and will be getting a full refund while my new card will arrive tomorrow, but it was purchased from amazon directly this time.
Update. I got the new card and it wouldn't format on the note,but it formatted easily on my pc and works like a charm now. Only issue IM having is that it won't transfer.files above 8Mb/s. Not exactly the 30mb/s that it's rated it. Could be a number of other things causing this, but I'll update once I figure out why it's so slow.

64gb seem to be the most popular, thus making it look like more complaints are being given. I just formatted my 64gb card to fat32 as the exfat file system seems to be problematic on our devices.

There was a problem with the chipset used, it has been rectified now.
So what is the real problem exactly? If it is the chip set problem, wouldn't those cards affected still be in circulation?
I'm contemplating getting one myself but I'm leaning towards Samsung ones as well just to be on the safe side.

it's because it was formatted on a non sdxc reader, if you goto the sd association site, it will state it.
