External limit to a 16gb S 3??

[theugleeman]

Hey All, I recently got a 16gb S3 from a local R**io Sh**k and the salesperson there said it would only support a 16gb sd card. I really want to get a 64gb card, but I was told 32 or 64 would make the phone lag. Can anyone tell me if this is true or not? Because in that case I'd only be able to max out at 32 (16 internal and 16 external).

I have an AT&T S3 (if that matters, as compared to Verizon, Sprint S3s, etc..) and I plan to get a Class 10.

Thanks in advance,
Ugly

False. Its supposed to support up to a 64gb micro sd.

When purchasing a microSD card, pay attention to the Class number. Higher numbers mean faster write speeds, which may translate to faster performance. I think Class 10 is the highest; cheaper cards are often Class 4.

Just make sure to get a class 10 card and you'll be fine with 64gb.

It always boggles my mind how clueless sales reps can be. All they have to do is do a web search:
