Note 4 ... SD Card ... what to choose

[mhunter6378]

Can anyone help out here???

For the most part, the difference is in transfer speed. I have the EVO it's plenty fast enough. Here's a link that gives good info on the cards Consumer Memory Card | Samsung Semiconductor Global Website

AnandTech | Samsung Releases Standard, EVO and PRO SD Cards

Price match anything you buy at best buy to Amazon.

Yes difference is transfer speed. If you go through best buy I know they are on sale. Price match with amazon though. It is even cheaper that way.

I'm using the SanDisk 128GB and so far it is working like a charm!

Just picked up this beast from best buy. They priced matched amazon so I got this for 37 bucks. 55 on amazon minus a $20 best buy rewards coupon plus tax. Sweeeeeet

FYI guys..I bought a Samsung 64gb evo. It was a dud. Returning to amazon. I went to a vzw store and they pit an sdcard in and it worked.
So for sure it was the card and not the phone.

Very good points/info.

A lot of people think because they moved part of, or maybe one app to the sd card, that all apps can be moved to the sd card.. IMO, no way. I use my sd card storage for movies, personal vids, pictures and music..I heard the Notes can't read but 30something so that 90 or higher, IMO, can't be utilized. I have been using the Sandisk 64gb Ultra, no problems whatsoever. I think people that have problems, could have one of those fakes, don't format the card in the phone, and/or disconnect when writiing...

I got the 128, that is overdamkill to be truthful. That $31.99 deal for 64gb sd class 10 is the best deal going IMO. I paid 3 times and more for the 128, and I don't have 3 times space or 3 times the performance of the 64gb. However, I do have 128gb BRAGGING RIGHTS!!

I don't know why everyone thinks 128gb is too much. If you carry lossless music and shoot high-def photos and vids, it's not nearly enough.

SanDisk is complete garbage. Get anything but SanDisk, they're the worst.

Hmmm... My SanDisk Extreme worked great in my Note 3 and continues to work great in my Note 4. My SanDisk Ultra works great in this S5. Perhaps I'm just lucky?

As a pro photographer, I trust Sandisk. I have never had any issues.

I bought a 32gb Sandisk for my Note 2 a few years ago. It quit working after 3 months, and trying to get it replaced through Sandisk, they never sent me the replacement.

Soooo, I am trying out the Samsung cards this time. Ordered this View attachment 140574

I think you made a very good choice. I've never had a problem with Samsung cards.

I have Samsung EVO 64GB too. And I am getting 40MB/s read and 20MB/s write speeds with it. Which is more than enough for Note 4.

Have a note4 have bought every 128gb sd card an none of the function right. My samsung 64gb card works GREAT. But I need 128...I've already filled the 64 I NEED MORE SPACE Y WONT THEY WORK ON MY PHONE

Purchase many movies from google play a intend on filling up my128gb micro sd card but it won't register the sd card forces onto my internal memory.I've even set my settings to store on external sd card

 

[Haalcyon]

From what I've read I wondered if the 128GB cards were really compatible with the Notes. I guess some are using them without trouble.

Does it work fine with Note 4 N910C?

The 64GB Samsung PRO? Yes, I have two of them...and they work great.

The 64GB EVO is also great, but you will see the difference between the PRO and the EVO if you are transferring a large number of files or large files. I just copied 50 GB of video to one of my two 64GB PRO cards and it was far quicker than with older cards that I have. Granted, I had the card out of the phone and was using a USB 3.0 card reader. I can also skip through a 20 GB MKV video file on the card with almost no apparent delay using VLC. Of course, most of my video files will be smaller, but I wanted a larger one for test purposes...and for eye candy.

I wish they had a 128GB version of the PRO, but they do not. They have a 128GB version of the EVO, but many reviewers claim it is noticeably slower than the 64GB EVO. 64GB appears to be the sweet spot at the moment...and the EVO is a bargain that will work well for most folks. Of course, if you don't mind the added expense, the PRO is even better.

BTW, I went with this card because I have had terrible luck with Sandisk cards and the reviews for the Samsung were so stellar. So far so good.

That is MICRO!!

That is NOT a Micro. See last bullet point of the description.

These two (2) is what I have:

Samsung PRO 32GB microSDHC and the Samsung PRO 64GB microSDXC, both Class 10.

That's all for now.
