$40 for a 64GB micro sd seems pretty good if it works with SG3? I've heard rumors and read some things here about Samsung making it difficult for non-samsung made micro sd cards working on it?

My SanDisk 64gb works fine in my S3.

[funkylogik]

Itl be fine.
Theres just a lot of reports of s3 "frying" SDs and they only replace them if theyr Samsung branded but Sandisk do replace them.
Just keep it backed up mate.

P.s, anyone checked out the Sandisk app? What a waste of a download. Lets you back up to cloud but they dont have their own cloud service lol its gota be dropbox, box, etc. Total crap

Yes it will work fine, i have the same card.

I would highly recommend you format the card to FAT32 when you get it though.

My Sandisk 64 GB Class 10 sdxc card works just fine.

Why is everyone saying format to "FAT32" mate?

Fat32 is just a format tht seems to work well with the S3,

Because the S3 won't recognize the card, that is why. It will read as a damaged sd card by the phone. Use Disk Utility on a Mac or right click to format on a PC and format to FAT32. The sd card will now work perfectly. I have the 64gb sandisk in mine. No issues.

Actually some s3's do recognize the cards without formatting, mine did for a while. But eventually i ran into problems whenmi tried to access the card though cwr.

One of those stupid annoyances i guess lol

I have the same model and I've been using it since I got the GSIII. Didn't format when I popped it in. Been using whatever file system it came with

It comes formatted. Just put it in the phone, and use it.

I just formatted my 32gb class10 in the phone n its fine.
Is it just the 64gb ones that should be fat32?

Wow, that is helpful....lmao

[frekiluv]

Fat32 is good. Exfat is good if 32GB or less. Exfat allows larger than 4g files. I use fat32 with 64kb allocation on uhs1class10 64g.

composed by my imaginary construct for you.

[AxlMyk]

Again, it does not need to be formatted.
But if you must, use a formatter for SD cards, and a reader made for SDXC cards
