In my experience, the Samsung cards are better with Samsung devices. I've had several Galaxy devices reject/damage SanDisk cards, but never any problems with their own memory.

I had read recently an article that investigated the transfer speeds between the EVO+ and the other Samsung cards. There is a pro card that is slightly faster than the EVO+ but there's a problem with diminishing returns for your money going with that higher speed...worth it if you're a professional photographer, but otherwise...

I personally use a 64GB EVO+ card in my S7E with no problems.

I use a 128GB Samsung EVO+ in my S7E and used the same for a couple of years in my Note 4. I put the same in my wife's phone. Over on the Note 4 forum the same advice was posted on using Samsung cards as mentioned by Dngrsone. The only uSD card I ever had fail was a SanDisk a few years ago.

Can this evo plus card record 4k videos directly in it using s7 edge?

Faster, perhaps but I can't say from experience. The EVO+ has been more than adequate for me, including copying to the phone over USB.

I've been using the 256g sd card that I received for free from Samsung for buying the Note 7. I've not had any issues. Then again, I'm no expert.

In evo plus how much data copy speed you receiving over data cable?

I copied a 3.03GB folder to it from my laptop's SSD in approx. 3 minutes (it didn't show transfer speed but I think that comes to about 133Mbps). I copied a 2.52GB folder from the card to my laptop in 1 min 15 secs.

The Pro+ is faster than the EVO+ but I don't know if that translates to improved data movement between the phone and computer.

I believe that is true. For large data transfers I have taken the card out and put it in a USB 3.0 card reader (I do the same with the same card in a GoPro Hero 4 silver in which this card works great).

One note I would add - if I were going to use the card for adoptable storage then I would view higher R/W speeds as more critical and would opt for the fastest card I could comfortably afford, e.g. the Samsung Pro Plus.
