Hisense Sero 7 Pro micro SD card type?

[tpd15]

My Sero 7 Pro is on it's way to me, I'll hopefully have it for the weekend. I want to buy a memory card for it, but am unsure what exactly will work. The specs say it accepts up to a 32 GB microSD card.

I see another post here saying it'll accept higher capacity cards so long as you format them as FAT32, which is great.

However, I don't know if the device will accept SDHC cards, or better yet SDXC cards. Plain SD cards don't seem very common these days, with SDHC being the norm. I know SDHC isn't supposed to be backwards compatible into SD devices.

Does anyone know if the 7 Pro will accept SDHC or SDXC cards?

Thanks,
Toby.

Pretty much every new device will accept SDHC--this is confirmed by the manual (pg. 11): http://hisense-usa.com/support/manuals/Sero7 Pro_us_m_en_man.pdf

In this thread, users say that 64 GB microSDXC cards do work, as long as they are formatted in FAT32: http://forums.androidcentral.com/ot...ed-64gb-microsd-their-hisense-sero-7-pro.html

Thanks for the pointer to the owner's manual.

I had previously seen that thread on the card you provided, that's where I got the info that larger cards work so long as they're FAT32. However, nowhere in that thread does it actually say that they have SDXC cards working in a 7 Pro. Instead, she's just about to buy an SDXC card (but she never actually does in the end).

I'll go ahead and get a 64 GB card, thanks

Interestingly, SDHC tops out at 32 GB, so if a card is 64 GB then it is SDXC. That thread does say they got a 64 GB "SD" card working, so that must be an SDXC. And all the 64 GB cards I can see on Amazon are SDXC.

The manual just says SDHC, so SDXC might still be a lottery...

OK, here's a post where someone says specifically that they're using a 64 GB SDXC card:

I'm gonna buy that card.

Yes, sorry, I should have mentioned that 64 GB cards are by definition SDXC.
