I've been a loyal Note owner since the Note2 line. I enjoyed them all.
I accidentally dropped my Note4 and cracked the screen. I filed the standard insurance claim (since I'm paying for it) to receive another Note4.
Since i'm on the Next program through AT&T, i know I needed to replace my Note4 with one that's not damaged so I can get a Note5.
Guess what!
They are sending me a Note5 32gb version to replace my Note4!
My issue is NO SD SLOT! I use my phone a lot to record video and pictures, and I fill up my Note4's SD.
Has anyone knew of a situation that I can pay the different for a 64gb version, and trade in my "un-opened" 32bg Note5?
Am I stuck with the 32gb version since it was a replacement for my 32gb Note4?
Any thoughts?
I would keep it unopened and go to an official AT&T store and try to swap it for a 64GB if you pay the difference, should only be $50

Hey guys i am looking for a good deal on 32gb microsdhc cards. I dont know if i should trust the ones on ebay because i know theres many fakes. Last time i ordered the msproduo cards and they were fake... said 8gb but were only 4gb... so i got a refund on those. Also if anyone knows some good deals on 16gb micro m2.
i recommend to buy at shop
Get a Sandisk card, those are usually authentic and offer great value and performance.
If you're looking for a card to put into your HTC Windows Phone, make sure you get a card with one of the following two model numbers:
SDSDQM-032G-B35
SDSDQM-032G-J35A (will be out for sale sometime this month)
A 32GB microSD card will cost you about 70-90 bucks including shipping. If you see an offer for a lot less, stay away from it.
Yea just bought this to put into my HD7. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rt=nc&nma=true&item=250752727418
SDSDQM-032G-J35A (will be out for sale sometime this month) <--- Thats class 4 and it will not work in HD7 right?

Sandisk told me it's for sale in Japan since January 2011 (this month) but so far I haven't seen it for sale anywhere and noone is importing it from there either. They assure me that card will definitely work, but I have not run a test on it since I can't get one.
Just seen on Android Central. Verizon was holding out it seems, and will now have the gold versions of the phones for pre-order on the first. Now I've gotta go switch up my order with BestBuy...

Thank you for choosing Best Buy, my name is Ellyy. How may I assist you today?

Hello! will the Verizon 128GB Gold Galaxy S6 Edge be available for pre order tomorrow?
How exciting that your interested in getting a new phone! I'd be more than happy to assist you with any questions about the preorder for the Samsung S6 edge. Let me check that for you.
May I please take a 2-3 minutes to look into this for you? I appreciate your patience.
While you wait, any accessories you want me to look up for you?
Thank you so much for waiting. I did check for you. The Samsung S6 Edge 128GB will be available tomorrow for preorder.
will there be official Samsung accessories available tomorrow?
Yes, accessories will be available for preorder tomorrow as well.
i guess i'm just trying to clarify. The Verzion 128gb Gold/Platinum version of the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge will be available for pre order tomorrow. Correct?
Yes, it will be available.
I haven’t received a response from you. Do you still need assistance?
fantastic! Do you by chance have the price options? Off contract and 2 year. Thank you verymuch for your help
With 2 year contract it will be $499.99.
Without contract it will be $1049.99.
That off contract price scares me...

Best Buy always charges more for off-contract devices compared to carriers. Verizon will have the same $499 contract price, but off-contract they'll have the 128GB S6E for $899.

I hope so, or soon, because I need to switch my preorder from black to gold before launch. I tweeted BB Mobile today and they didn't have a date for Sprint gold variant.
I went on the Verizon website to check if gold was available, and it is. But.... when you place the order, it shows a shipping date of May 1st.... sigh...
I might just preorder this one. First time I've ever preordered. Now I just have to decide between black and gold.
Last phone I ever preordered was the HTC Incredible and it arrived a week early. Hoping for the same blunder in the warehouse lol.
Ended up ordering from Verizon for $150 less than Best Buy.
128GB S6 Edge Gold Platinum
Order Date: 4/2/15
Shipping date: 5/1/15
Carrier: Verizon
Shipping Method: 2 day
ETA: Possibly shipping around April 27th per big red employee. I have a feeling i will be looking for emails every single day in the hopes i get a shipment notification!!!!

Same here. Got it with shipping day for 05/01 but I'm thinking it will get shipped a few days short
Samsung is beautiful
I actually posted a bunch online saying I'd use this as an excuse to jump ship if Verizon decided to screw with me one more time by not offering the gold version. I still want it, but I'm pretty peeved that it's coming in May, since that timing is so iffy I might as well wait for the Note 5. I'm still debating, though I'm leaning heavily towards buying it.
've been struggling with whether to go White or Gold. I think I decided on White, but I do wonder about the 32GB vs 64GB vs 128GB. So my mentality is this, I definitely don't want to do 32GB so it's 64GB vs 128GB.
Is 128GB better? YES, of course. But I have a 64GB card and I think with one of those nifty Meenova devices (USB OTG to micro sd adapter), I could easily add any amount of data to the phone on the go.
Anyone else have a big reason for going 128GB? Because the price is insane at that level.

It depends on how much you plan on storing into your phone. I have my entire music catalog on my SD Card so i went with the 128GB. I also have a young daughter and i use my phone as my main camera so i wanted the extra memory. If you use streaming sites for music or store your pic/vids on a cloud based service you really do not need anything more than a 64GB. Just my opinion.

Those are valid points. I backup to the cloud but have about 10GB of pictures and video on my phone. I do stream my music mostly. So I think really I should be good. If I want to have movies or other things I could prob do the 64gb card via the dash micro adapter. But then Verizon gives $100 off so I feel like I could get 128GB for 64gb price. Lol
so i got a 32gb white s6 from rent a center yesterday for my wife to try. you know pay to own type of thing, yea its a ripoff what they charge but its short term until i could get one through tmobile or craigslist. i found this deal for an upgrade for me on tmobile today. it says its for a 128gb version for only $285 down and $19.75 per month. kinda a high down payment but my credit isn't perfect. anyways how can this be less than what they want for 32gb version? i wanted to make sure im not just seeing things. if its true ill be getting asap and take the rented one back. maybe the higher storage versions aren't selling well?
i attached a screenshot i just took.
Sales. T-Mobile has been having sales.

The 32GB is $679. That is $759 ($19.75X24+285), and the ad says thats including a $100 web only discount. Seems right to me.
Yes, they have that since memorial day sale I think, I returned my 64gb in the store and bought the 128gb online coz they have the same price.
Quick question.
I had to get a new phone last week and of course am within the promo window for the free SD card/gear. Best Buy was able to redeem the offer for me and I walked out with my 256gb microSD card. Now I knew going to Best Buy that the S7 Edge only supported up to 200gb, but I didn't need the gear so the SD card was the somewhat logical choice.
Obviously I could just list the card on Ebay and turn around, buy a 200gb card and be a happy camper, but the question I have is..
do I have to? Will it not be able to read the card at all? Or will it only use 200 gb and ignore the other 56?
Thanks for any insight you might have.
Nope, it can see and use the entire card.

Are you sure? Have you tested it out yet?
Yes, I have the 256gb card. The phone can use the entire card.
Yes, it can be used. The phone officially supports 256 but you will be good 2 go even with 512GB.

I think you're referring to the Note 7. The S7 Edge officially supports up to 200gb, but I'm surprised it can do 256 from what's being said here then.

Thats great news! I too opted for the 256gb SD card as the promotional item.

No, I'm talking about S7. You can use 512 card.
Btw, if it supports 200 then it supports 256, it's the same.
May be a bit off topic but I purchased my S7 Edge through Verizon and redeemed the promotion online and chose to get the Fit2. Yesterday I received the 256GB SD card. Called Samsung and they said it was "while supplies last" in the fine print somewhere. So evidently they are out of the Fit2 and sending out the 256GB SDs instead. I don't really have the need for the card so going to take a chance with a return to Best Buy and exchange it for the fitness tracker.

when did you buy the phone? i requested the gear fit but havent gotten a tracking id from fedex so im curious if i didnt get the watch
I submitted the info online on Aug 13th and received the SD card on the 18th. Email confirmation said I was getting the Fit2. I took the card to Best Buy and they gave me store credit for the card ($249) so I was able to get an open box Fit2 for $138 and a 64GB SD card for $25 and still have $74 left over
You guys are lucky you're getting stuff. I bought 2 S7 Edges on the 26th but my Best Buy refuses to honor the promotion. They don't believe me that it's real.
At least Samsung seems helpful pretty far. Samsung told me that they will force Best Buy to give me the Micro SDs. Is anyone else having this issue?
I picked my S7 Edge up yesterday at my local Best Buy They are offering the SD Card or Fit only on the Note 7s. I got offered a $150 Best Buy gift card and took it since I didn't need the fit and have plenty of SD cards. I figured it was a good enough deal to not complain about it.

Sorry to bring up a thread that's been dead for 2 weeks but I have a question about the SD card. If Samsung says it works to 200 GB, how's it able to read more? Does anyone know the technical answer?
Hello,
Apparently there are 3 variants of the phone, 32gb 64gb and 128gb.
My wife has a 128gb variant, and she broke her screen. I was wondering if I take another Mi 5 but say 32GB variant, would the connection fit(i.e. it probably has a different board etc.)?
I am not going to do replacement myself, would ask repair shop to do it, i just know that with my parts it is going to be way cheaper
Any info appreciated!
Don't worry... The screen is alright for all versions it doesn't really matter the only difference in the versions is on 128gb there is back made of ceramic and the motherboard has 128gb Flash
