64 GB SD card or 128 GB card?

[JatinAShah]

Hey all, this is my first post as a member here. I just bought a LG V10 and wow! what a fascinating phone. I absolutely love it!! I've never been too interested in learning how to use my phone to the fullest capacity, but I feel like I have to. I have a Nexus 7 tablet and I might be putting that on the market soon.

Anyway, my question now is whether any one has had issues using a 128 GB card. I saw some posts here and other places where the 128 GB cards weren't all working well in phones. Has that been the experience with this phone?

Any battery issues after install?

I plan on buying directly from Amazon.com and not from a 3rd party retailer on Amazon to cut down on any quality questions. Thanks all!

The phone can hold a 200GB card with no problems

Thanks for the response. Any negative effect on battery performance?

The only time you should see negative battery performance with an SD card is if the card is failing.

I thought the phone could hold a 2TB card with no problem ( if only one exist).

I've never had an issue with any size micro SD card as long as you're getting the genuine article. I love amazon, but buy from them directly. I've got a 128 gb in my v10 now and there are no issues what so ever. No additional power drain. It's a Sandisk class 10.

I use Samsung cards only. I have a 128GB card presently, and I've never had a problem with it. One of the things some people forget to do when removing the card from their phones is to unmount it first. That can cause huge problems and losss of data.

I believe that is true for both the G4 and the V10. Now if anybody made cards larger than 200GB

Here's a link to a company that supposedly makes a 512gb micro sd card - very high asking price! I would say the bigger the better - I use a pny 128gb card w/ no issues in my g3 - I will be rocking the v10 shortly

Although this thread is getting a little old, but if you haven't purchased yet, any size (volume) card should work just fine.

There shouldn't be any noticeable drain on battery between any size or speed card.

Therefore, I would go big ... and go with the highest 'write speed' you can find.

With 64gb internal memory, a 64gb sd card is already enough for me...though i presume the phone should handle a 128gb or more without any problem(s)

PNY is a good brand, as long as the one you bought was genuine. Where did you get it?
