I use most of my i9000 features. Due to RAM and processing limitations using custom roms with Jelly Bean powered, against with my apps I decided to buy a new phone.
I was originally aiming for the Galaxy S2 i9100P version, which comes with NFC technology and the same stunning i9100 hardware as well. But is extremely RARE to find in mint or great overall condition.
Then, i was looking for the Google's Galaxy X. Great mobile but with a "defective" non "100% black" and non "100% white" screen.
On this mid-range another mobile is the Sony Xperia P with great specs but lacks on the screen resolution and AMOLED.
SAMS finally released the Galaxy S3 Mini.
SAMOLED, NFC, GLONASS, great design, perfect for single-hand use and the button layout follows the same of Galaxy family.
My question is: Is SGSIII mini worth the price for its hardware? Or i9100 still a great option instead?
As the title states, now I know that our devices say that they support up to 64GB but I have seen other phones (a long time ago, Desire HD and the like) using memory cards they were never designed to be used with, just wanted to know if anyone had tried it and if so how did it go? Did it work did it make the phone any slower?
Sandisk has said that it's compatible but i'd just like to hear what people have experienced.
Cheers.

Would anybody seriously spend £100 on an sd card, you'd be better putting that £100 into the 32GB or 64GB versions

I highly doubt that it'll stay that price for long once it becomes mainstream, with 4K video set to become the standard over the next few years i'd expect people to be picking this sized memory card up soon so yea if you want to get in there early then 100 quid isn't that bad.
Bare in mind that the jump between iphone memory sets is £100 when a new one is released check the prices, 16GB 32GB and 64GB all £100 difference between them.
So not only would people pay this but they do already.
Not to mention that if you roll back time a little the 64GB card wasn't exactly cheap when it came on the scene.
Also this thread is a question, not a general discussion.
There's a huge difference between buying a 16GB-64GB phone, than buying a 16GB phone then buying a 128GB sd card, especially with kitkats limitations with sd cards

I don't know m8, i've been using foldermount for the really big apps and it's been superb up until now.
There isn't an app out there that I can't mount onto the SD with foldermount, not to mention the sheer amount of media that could be put on a 128GB sd card.
Plus if you've not used one then youre not answering my question either

I tested FolderMount and I agree with you, very good app! ..but I still prefer "Native" expandable storage.

I am so attempted to buy that card, and soon or later I will.
I have the card and is working fine. All I can say is that isn't fast. Max speed you will have is about 15/20 Mb/s writing(Rarely) as the Mobile Ultra. Honestly I prefer my 16 Gb Extreme Pro(I have had 104 Mb/s writing files).

Thats what I was after, thanks m8.
Do you happen to use the app folder mount? Have you noticed anything problematic whilst in use?
Cheers.

Haven't used that app. I don't know if you are rooted but I use sdfix and I haven't had any problems.
PD: I could try the app for you and tell what happens tomorrow. It's 3 am here...

I'm not disagreeing with you, I'm merely saying that for the average user, anything more than a 32GB or 64GB is too expensive, and yes the price will come down, but then they'll develop 256GB, how long before we have terabyte cards? They already do terabyte pen drives but they're not affordable to the average user

Samsung Micro SDXC 64Go Classe 10 UHS-1 Grade 1 70MB/s 35€ here, no that's not expensive.
If you re-read what I wrote I said anything MORE than 32GB or 64GB, A decent 64GB can be picked up for under £40,

Lol get some sleep mate, try it when you've got a few zzZZZzz's
I'll look into SDFix, it appears to be a very clean looking app, but as for the modification that it does, does it extend the usage of your internal memory or simply put the rules of the SD card back to the way that it was on 4.3 and previous versions? That's kind of what it says on their play store page.
If thats the case then it is different to folder mount which literally enables you to grab a folder from within your internal stoage and move it to the ext card then the previous folder can be deleted, 100% space back.

Yea you're right i'm not disputing that mate, i've already got a 64GB myself. Picked it up for £38 when they were just becoming mainstream.
All I wanted to know was what people experience was with them, I honestly don't care about the price or whether or not it's too big for some people, everyone's different.
Also I don't need to re-read your post, I read your statement, which was no answer to what I had asked, it was simply your opinion and of no help to me, sorry.
128GB SD-Card speed issue on 4.4.4
I bought my 128gb-card yesterday and I noticed a HUGE speed difference between android 4.3 and 4.4.4. On 4.4.4 it's EXTREMELY slow, but the speed is good on 4.3. Anyone else facing this issue? My Roms are: 4.4.4 - slimkat AMD (evo 9) and 4.3 - romaur 1.2.
Try installing pimp my z1 and change some SD card read ahead and some different I/o schedulers

Hi everyone!
I am trying to help my wife upgrade her Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 mini. She would prefer it to be small, and about $60. I purchased a 4 mini which was an improvement, but was open to suggestions for another Verizon smartphone. Thanks in advance!

you can search for the Xperia XZ1 Compact it's similar (in size), and you get a good processor
Hi, I started smartphones with Nokia 6680, N95, N97.
Then with Galaxy S2, S3, S4, Note 4.
Very happy by my Note 4 and its IR blaster !
Unfortunately, I had to change my Note 4 because it was blocked to Android 6.01 and I needed Android 7 to control my French electric car.
I bought a Galaxy Note 20, by desappointed because no IR blaster.
Now I would like to convert my Note 4 and Galaxy Tab S to new Androids...
