I have an SGS now and I love it. My contract is up in November and I will be getting a new phone (hopefully), so I am starting to look around and see what is coming up in the next few months.
Looking at GSMArena, I saw 2 phones that I would be interested in, but they are a bit different.
Which smartphone would you prefer?
A)
Dual core 1.8Ghz CPU
2GB ram
12MP camera
Memory card slot
720 x 1280 pixels, 4.6 inches
MicroUSB v2.0 (MHL), USB On-the-go
Secondary Camera - 2 MP
B)
Quad core 2.5Ghz CPU
1GB ram
8 MP camera
No memory card slot
720 x 1280 pixels, 4.5 inches
MicroUSB v2.0
Secondary Camera - 1.3 MP
Everything else is the same.

They both are pretty awesome, but i think i would waite a bit with the Quad core because of software issues/incombabilities etc.
Screens are about the same size - and it has a 12MP kamera
1.8 GHz is very much enough, and with some CFW rom+kernel you can overclock quit a bit
+ it would be a shame and an error you will regret later with no memory card!?
So i would choose A:
Best regards
i think, dual core 1.8 ghz is adequate
I'd choose the dual-core one...
Quad-core with 1 GB of RAM does not sound really good to me, + it's still uncommon, there might be software problems upon syncing with the quad-core
the choice is still in your hands though in the end
i would go for the 1.8ghz one, bcoz it has more ram then the other, and also memory expention...
more memory will help the current apps run smoother, then the quad core one, becose it may have 4 cores but not all apps uses all the cores not even in PC world and less memory...
I don't even want to think what a quadcore running would do to the battery, and what would you use 4 cores for on a phone, dual core is more than enough I think plus you get double the ram which should be good for multitasking.
My thoughts exactly, I would go with A also. I find that if I need computing power, I'll use my desktop. A quad-core CPU is overkill in my book. As I have a 1Ghz CPU in my phone (Galaxy S) now (and I find it fast enough for my needs), a dual-core 1.8Ghz CPU would be more plenty fast for me. I would rather have a better camera and more ram, not to mention the card slot.
By the way, these are the two phones I am talking about...

And the

Now these are not available yet, but I did mention I was looking at phones that will be coming out in the near future.

Take A....
You dont need a Quad Core...
So you have a better Camera and a micro usb slot. Thats important for me.
Gesendet mit meinem SGS mit Tapatalk.
I was looking at these two memory cards online. The evo+ 128gb is around £40 and the ultra 128gb around £33. Out of the two which should I go for putting inside my s7 edge. Which one has better performance and reliability.
both are good, go with scandisk for cheaper price.
check this article
http://www.phonearena.com/news/Thes...our-Galaxy-S7-S7-edge-LG-G5-or-HTC-10_id80277
and you have this post about microsd.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/accessories/suggestions-microsd-t3321569
I recommend to take SanDisk Extreme Plus UHS-I U3
Don't get the Sandisk Extreme Plus 128gb. It's $200-$300 and has almost zero availability.
If you want to save money and get a fast 128GB microsd card, go with the Samsung EVO+ (i use this in my S7e).
If you want to spend $100, get the Samsung Pro+ 128gb card.
Both Samsung and Sandisk are reliable.
As far as performance of the two cards you listed....
Samsung EVO+ -- READ 82, WRITE 26
Sandisk Ultra -- READ 92, WRITE 19
Get the EVO+. Write speeds are more important than the read speeds, especially if they are higher than 70mb/sec (both are).
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't for a phone the random write speed the more important figure vs. the sequential write speed you listed?
Personally id go with the samsung evo.
Only if you elect to use the Adoptable Storage option in Android 6.0. If not, sequential write speed would be the key field.
Whichever is cheapest at the time of purchase. You'll notice no difference once it's in the phone.
I ended up going with the 128 GB Pro + - can be had for $90. Much higher write speeds than the Evo +. The new 256 GB Evo + might match or even outclass the 128 GB Pro +, but at $250... I'll pass.
Hi XDA Users,
One Plus 5 will be launched on June 20th, some are curious about the OPO 5 Specs, but most of them are curious about its price. So your task is simple. Though there are several leaks online nothing is confirmed yet.
Guess the price of One Plus 5 (6 GB RAM/ 64 GB storage only).
Give the price in the $USD/ EUR/ GBP/ INR etc.
Post it in the comment below. Let's see who gets close to the OPO5 price.
Good luck.
My guess is £400 which is about $506
64GB $499
128Gb $549
£499 but think it'll be more, still buying it though.
64GB with 6GB RAM $510
128GB with 8GB RAM $580
Yes I opt for 479-499€ for the 6GB Ram and about 539-569 for 8 GB Ram.
64gb 539€
128gb 579€
$499
360 EUR

With him.
Me too now thinking $479 for base 64gb /6gb RAM variant
479 usd 64gb 6gb ram
549€ for 6gb/64gb
599€ for 8gb/128gb model (if there will be even 8gb model..)
Sent from my Xiaomi MI MIX using XDA Labs
£449 (about $570 USD)
I'll wager $450 USD for the base model.
$500
64gb 479$
128gb 499$
479€ for the 6GB RAM/64GB Storage
$511 for 64 GB..
449$/449€/469£
Anybody have any idea on this. I can't seem to find it out there , also can't seem to find a bundle with the note 9 and the 512gb micro sd card.
Thanks!
There is no bundle with a 512GB SD Card. Samsung is expected to release a 512 GB Micro SD Card, most likely when the Note 9 officially releases in 2 weeks

That's going to have a price tag more absurd than this phone I bet! Maybe... $350? $400?

Haha, well the 256GB is about $150 now, but was $250 or $300 when released. So maybe the 512 will be in line with those prices.
Really wish they bundled that instead of headphones.

My thoughts exactly, I got the 256gb with the Note 7 , was hoping to get the 512gb with the 9. Really dont need another set of headphones.

The only current 512gb micro SD cards on the market are the Integral (a UK brand), which just dropped from $399 to $350, the PNY, which just came out at $350, and the TeamGroup, a lesser know Korean brand that retails around $300, but can be found for $290 if you are lucky. The PNY and TeamGroup are both out of stock in the US right now, and the Integral is hard to find for the $350 price tag.
I wonder how the speed of the 512gb will be. card size is important but speed I can transfer files matters too if I'm moving such large files.
and the SanDisk/Samsung micro SD card naming scheme is so confusion..
I'm sure the speed is great as I have the 256gb microsd I received with the Note 7, the 512 should be faster. I move a lot of my apps to the sd and it runs just fine. I'll be using this 256 with the Note 9 when it arrives. Can't wait!
Who really needs this though, honestly...? I mean, if you need massive storage, it's cheaper to get the internal memory ($250, basically). I have a really hard time imagining someone needing 1TB of space on a phone right now, haha.
Personally, I ordered the 512gb phone and will be using my 256GB card I got from the Galaxy "Fireball". I think I'll get by with 768GB. ?
It started to pop up in Samsung stores around the world. At least Germany and US.
warning, high capacity samsung sd cards have slower write and read speeds in samsung phones. and samsung phones alredy have a reduced ext sd performance by default... so you do the math.
dont think the note 9 even has a UHS rating and poor performance backs it up.
save some money and get a cheaper card instead. if this sounds like Chinese and you have money, then why not.

Really? I find that hard to believe as the read and write speed is stated on the packaging. If it is not true then Samsung could be sued for false advertising.

in any uhs usb 3 cars reader speeds are on pare.
as stated earlier, in a phone, you will never get those speeds.
my samsung evo plus 256 performs like a cheap class 10.
so i can only imagine a 512gb.
ive made a thread about this....
a smaller 64 gb outperforms the bigger cards that have the exact same ratings.
Its 512gb micro sdxc compatible with my samsung s7 edge?
400 GB sandisk card $99 on Amazon
If you do a lot of 4k and slomo photography the sdx comes in handy to save wanted media, 4k is like 10mb'sec

Hhhh
I bought a Lexar 200gb with a crazy price: 30 USD.
Price off Samsung 256gb card in Morocco is 85 USD.
I'm going to be ditching my Samsung S7 Edge for a Moto G6 shortly. I can pick up the 32Gb / 3Gb version for $200, or get the 64Gb/4Gb from Amazon for $300. 32 G isn't enough storage, but I can pick up a 64 Gb or 128 Gb SD card for much less than the $100 difference in price. Is the jump from 3G -> 4G in RAM worth it? I'd also be getting all the Amazon apps preloaded - whether I want them or not. I'm thinking I'd be better off with the standard version, and just adding storage myself, but thought I'd see if there are reasons to go the other route.
