Yes, it works. I have two micro SDXC 64gb cards (class 6 and 10) that both work well on the phone.

How much did you guys pay for those?

Class 6 I got late last year for $79 and Class 10 I got from Amazon when it was on sale for $50

Im clueless about the classes but the higher the class the faster or better quality the card is?

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.

Ill try that but i doubt it will work. My pc doesnt even recognize it. It shows it as a drive but it cant do anything with it. Format it, copy files to it...etc etc

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.

Seller is amazon. returning it and waiting for another one. *sigh. what format do you have your card in?

I just popped it in my s2 first then under settings i hit format right off the phone.. I originally put it in my note but it wouldn't read it. Wouldnt even load.. After i did the format on my s2 it worked. I uploaded movies, music and used about 70%of it and it runs smooth with no lags... Its a speed 10 btw not the six one idk if that makes a difference or not

which sandisk breaks in note 2?

I bought a 64gig sandisk ultra uhs speed class 1 xc i or whatever.. i heard of some of these being corrupted by the note 2? is it this specific one?

So far it looks like only the 32gb Sandisk ultra u1 are affected.
I would skip SanDisk and get a Samsung as no one has posted any issues about them.

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.

Can you elaborate? Chips on the card or the phone? Was this fixed/will it be fixed? I'm having issues now and have just formatted my card to fat32 to see if that corrects the problem with random dismounting and denied access to the sd card.

How can we tell if our cards have the new chip? Where did you find out about this?

you can't tell, if your card has something wrong just use the warranty.
source is from a local sandisk authorised dealer that I know.

If the card is manufactured on or after December 2012, then it will work perfectly fine. Check on the pack for that. Cheers!!

My Samsung 32GB has been rock solid. But I want to get 64GB and the Sammy card is 100-250 depending on where you go!
I think I'll let the stock run through a bit before picking up a SanDisk 64GB

Been usng a 64gb sandisk for the past two weeks..so far no dismounting or whatever problem..my only problem is that i havent got the thing to fill it up with...LOL..
..sent from my Behemoth N7100..

I got the SanDisk 64GB back in mid-November. No problems whatsoever.

No issues with my 64gb sandisk. Popped it in and did a format and its good to go.
I never had any issues with any sandisk products.

i can confirm that my friends sandisk got messed up pretty bad, ended up only having a total space of 27.4gb in a 64gb sandisk sdxc class 10. but after reformated with sandisks program and it was back to 59gb. not sure why that happens

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

missing storage space? 7 gb in "other"

how do i access this i only have access to 26gb out of my 32gb
in storage settings it says there is 7gb in other but i cant access this??

That 7gb you're missing is the stock Rom and pre-installed apps I believe.

If like mine, you will have a pre installed film in there too, I got Thor that took up over a Gb. This is easily deleted by clicking 'free up space' or whatever it's called in settings

Could you give us a screenshot? So do you mean the 6gb is not really the system partition but a chunk of data?

No, I'm saying that some of the used space will be stuff you can remove, like 1.27 Gb of film I don't want to watch. There is a huge chunk that is the system partition don't get me wrong!

A HUGE chunk. Can't see the reason for it being so large.

im not sure what the other storage is its about 7gb

Yes out of the box only 25gb left. This space matters since the phone doesn't have memory expansion.
HTC shouldn't advertise it's 32gb. It's 25gb

isn't it possible to delete those bloatware-apps now, as we have the system-partition made r/w?

[Q] Reason for wake and lock lag?

Hello there guys, my note 3 is having serious lag with waking and when I lock the phone.. I'm not sure if it's because I downloaded the new family guy game.. But wouldn't that be ridiculous on a phone with 3gb ram? Anyone have an idea?

Mine did that. I took my SD card out and it's back to normal. I don't know why but it works.

How much usable space for app itself on sony Z1S? The 32GB model

How much usable space in the Phone memory portion of this Sony xpeira Z1S 32GB model.

24-25gb is usable, still plenty since there is still an external SD card to store pictures movies music etc

thanks for reply.
Actually , i meant the portion that can install APP, not the totaly space left. I have other sony 16GB model, i always run out of space to install app, since they are all 16GB only. So try to find out how many this 32GB model has for APP only.
Or actually can I have the whole 32GB for app ?

On this phone the space can be used for whatever,, so you can use it for all apps if you want.

Good to know, other sony xperia has 2 partitions, one for app which used quickly, the rest like 20 plus GB are used for anything else.
