Good morning! New owner of a Galaxy Tab E. This appeared to be the closest match for a location to discuss topics. If that is an incorrect deduction, please let me know so that I dont bother people unnecessarily.

I've a few questions. I'm a long time Galaxy S4 user, so I am trying to figure out Tab E differences.

1. Is there a good book or web site to read to learn the differences?
2. I want to use my tab as a media viewer. I'm using My DroidTV, and trying to setup the local cable service app (as long as I'm currently using the service, might as well use the app). I'm also going to use Kindle and Youtube on the device.

I took my 16 MB microSD from my old device and plugged it into the tab. But for instance the Kindle doesn't recognize any of the books which were downloaded to the SD card. On the S4, I moved the app to the SD card, but I can't remember if I had to do something specific to tell the app to store the books on the SD card... or maybe it just never did?

I'm working with support to transfer my Droid TV subscription, so that should be fine.

Any other ideas or suggestions of things that would I should know? I'm thinking I really need to replace my 16GB sd with a bigger card after I figure out how big the Tab E can go and find the best recommended card.

Thank you and thanks for the forum!

Hey @lvirden Warm welcome to AndroidCentral!

I'm thinking I really need to replace my 16GB sd with a bigger card after I figure out how big the Tab E can go and find the best recommended card.

If you are using the Galaxy Tab E (9.6" Inch or 8.0" inch) then the Micro SD card can go up to 128 GB (According to Samsung's Website) So that should greatly improve the 16GB storage you currently have.

With regards to types of Micro SD Cards, I've used Sandisk Cards for many many years and not a single one had died on me so i would recommend them. Specifically the 'Ultra' range. Thats the best value for money.

Hope this helps
