Hi guys,
I currently have an S3 and I have a buyer for it, I will be buying the Grey Note II very soon. However, due to the large number of games I have and the increasing file sizes for game data (in particular gameloft games) I would like to go for the 32GB or 64GB version. It is very inconvenient to always run out of space and have to move game data to the SD card. With the size of phone games these days, 32GB really should be the new standard imo.
I already have a 64GB memory card so please don't tell me where I can purchase one of these. I want the Note 2 in Grey with 32GB or 64GB internal memory. Do they exist? Will they ever appear or am I likely to be waiting indefinitely?
Now the buyer for my S3 is getting impatient and he wants it ASAP. I could sell it and buy the 16GB grey Note 2 now, but if there is any news regarding the 32 or 64GB version I will hold out for a bit longer.
Any information would be most helpful.
iphone users will be really jealous.

~i have almost the same case here...but as far as i have heard...the 64 and 32 GIG versions are not gonna be out till after 2012 ends...
Samsung are just about to start releasing an S3 64gb. Doesn't bode well for seeing a Note II anytime soon.
They seem to use the extra memory to even out their sales further into the phone's life, rather than maximize them at launch. Bloody annoying really.

Same boat except in Aus do I'll no doubt be waiting longer! so tempted to get 16gb but know I'll hate it later! Also don't you need a 'micro SD' card? Might do a search and see if there is a 'confirmed to work' 64gb card thread...

I ordered this: KINGSTON SECURE DIGITAL CLASS 10 SDXC 64 GB
I will update this thread once I pick it up at the post office today
I was in the same boat. I wanted the 64GB with 64GB microSD, but it is really unnecessary. To use that space you would need A LOT of movies on the phone. Movies etc can be streamed from your home computer via the Emit app. You can also use dropbox, so even 16+64GB is moooooooore then enough space.
Im one hoping for the release of the 64gb variant soon.
I think samsung have dropped the ball here.
Least the fruity phone manufacturer makes all memory size variants available from zero day

You guys confirmed what I already thought, I can see it being quite a wait until we see the 32GB and 64GB versions.
I've gone ahead and ordered the 16GB Grey Note II today. For those interested in the UK, this is the deal I got:
Grey Note II (FREE HANDSET)
300 Minutes
Unlimited Texts
1.5GB Internet
£27 Cashback.
£31 per month (T-Mobile)
24 Month Contract.
I ordered it today, it should be with me tomorrow.

No, the one I ordered is 3G.
Thing is, I do not intend to use 4G at all yet especially since we can be sure it will cost a fair bit on top of our contracts. I have also heard reports that the battery life takes quite a hit on 4G. By the time 4G is standard across the UK and we have coverage everywhere, I reckon I may have the Note 3 by then...
farfromovin - I agree with you, I think 128GB micro sd cards are literally just a few weeks away now.
If your thinking for waiting before buying the consensus is that is too long to wait for most. We are greedy. But it might still be a good idea as next week ee launch the lte version, this may affect the prices but come November network prices will definitely be affected. Combined you might save £50 in 30 days. This is all skeptical I know so let's say the EV is around £25 allowing for a fall in hype too.

It's funny you say that. I was thinking the same thing. I sure hope so. If this is the case I'd be willing to go that route. Not only is it more storage it's a more future proof solution. In fact the difference between a 16GB and 64GB note will probably be roughly equal to the difference between a 64GB card and a 128 GB card.
... here's hoping.
Got my Note II today, what a beast of a phone. Takes the best things from the Note I and the S3 and combines them, and improves it some. :good:
not sure note 2 would take 128gb sdcard as specs state upto 64gb?

The XC standard is supposed to be fixed regardless of memory size (up to a limit I forget) where the HC standard was different for each capacity. Wouldn't guarantee it but if 64 works then 128 (256, 512...) should be fine.

Can anybody confirm if Samsung is selling the Note 3 with 64Gig of internal memory in their country or was that just false publicity ???
They did the same stunt with other models before !!!
There is a petition you can sign if, like me, you think it is important that the phone's internal memory get increased in the future.
Hopefully without sacrificing the MicroSD port witch is worth mentioning in you comment !!!

Yes it does de job, but the best would be to have 64Gb internal (or more) and 64Gb Sd (or more).
The internal memory is a lot faster then Sd.
But the Sd slot is practical because it is removable and you can have more then one
Let's face it, these are not just phones anymore !
They do more and more, using higher quality files.
So these files takes more room!!!
By the way,
SanDisk Extreme® microSDHC™/microSDXC™ UHS-I Card 64GB
Item # SDSDQX-064G
is a tiny bit faster then the Samsung Sd Pro in write speed.

And If they are going to do everything to piss us (their faithfull customers) off,
Then I'll be sure not to go out of my way to give them more business.
Actually, from now on and until they change their attitude,
I'll be making detours to buy and promote other brands !!!
If everybody does the same, they might actually wake up.
But I wouldn't hold my breath lol

I went to the same elimination process.
I'm pissed about the region lock and the lack of 64Gig models,
but I have to admit that the Note 3 is still the closest thing to my dream phone out there right now.
It's impressive how out of touch the companies are with what their customer's wants !!!
I'm looking for a tool to make a massive survey about that.
If I manage to collect enough data and send it to all the companies,
One of them might actually use the info to make something really great !
So if you know of such a tool, that could reach a maximum number of people, please let me know !
In the mean time, I think our best hope for the future is http://phoneblocks.com/

You were just misinformed companies want you to think there's a limit but when your on a site like xda there's no fooling us lol, even though at that time 64 gb microsd was the biggest external microsd option there were ways to get around the limit via regular sdcards. I have a 256gb sdcard I use on my note 3 from a tf cable that uses the microsd card slot on the note 3 so I can insert my sdcard and store massive amounts of data on it. I'm planning on buying the 128gb microsd also tho just to support sandisk and Thank them for finally making this happen, we're sure to see 128gb internal phones in the near future now.

C'mon, this is very simple, until couple days ago the largest micro sd card was 64GB and that's how far they could test it and that's what they wrote in the specs. If the 128GB card follows the specs, it has to work, but I do remember in the past some cards didn't work with all devices and I have no idea why, something about particular controller being not compatible, so it would be foolish for Samsung to post specifications which can't be tested. I had same thing with my old camera, specs listed 32 GB max, largest size at the time of release but it worked with 64GB fine when those came out. So when do we get 256GB, 128GB seems so yesterday.

Almost certainly it will work. However the manufacturer suggested price (200$) is just "marketing" similar to what is routinely done on overpriced jewelry, the initial launch price seems to be closer to 120$ and I would be quite surprised if the price will not get towards 70-80 US$ once the competition really heats-up.
Amazon has it for $119 but it is out of stock.
No idea when they will actually have it.
It's been over 1 year so it's probably time to confirm that the SanDisk 128GB Ultra Micro SDXC Class 10 UHS-1 card works flawlessly on a Samsung Note 3 SM-N900T (running either KItKat or Lollipop). For best performance it doesn't hurt to adjust the read-ahead cache higher than the default 128K (I use 1024K).
Beware of the many "fakes" found online. As of this writing, anything under $50 is probably not a genuine 128GB card, but you can find legitimate ones for as little as $65 if you search around.
I'm in Australia and they don't sell the 64GB version of the Note 3 here.
I've been trying to find an online seller but all I ever see is N9005 with a 64GB card.
Currently I have an N7000 16GB + 64GB which is way too resrrictive. N7100 is a screen downgrade. And 32GB is not enough of a jump to warrant the money.
My N9005 will be matched with ZeroLemon battery and 128GB SD (or maybe 256GB full size with adapter if battery permits?)
But I can't find the 64GB phones! Help please

Only was on the Exynos octacore (non-LTE) version as far as I can tell.
Would adding a 128gb SD card do the job for you?
The 64GB version of the N9005 is a myth and doesn't really exist.
Or if it does (Samsung says so), nobody has managed to locate one. I'm not even sure they were ever actually build to begin with.
So ordered the 10+ 512gb 5G (uk) version, was wondering if it would be worth my while to get a new memory card, or use the 64GB one I have had a few years?
What recommendations do you have for a new card, will it be faster etc?
thanks
I think I'll continue to use the one that came with my Note-8.
I'm going to add in the one I got for the note 7 pre-order. High speed sd not that big of a deal to me on a phone. Others may disagree

Honest question, what would you need a memory card for with the 512gb version?
I agree its a lot of storage, but if the phone locks up and i have to hard reset, i will probaly lose everything. Thats why i prefer a memory card.

Yeah for sure ,, I have admittedly in the past fiddled around with ROMs and mods so it was really an issue then
I've even screwed up and formatted SD cards before lol UGH
But I definitely prefer to try to store things -- photos, documents, etc on an SD card (really hard to get used to not having that when trying/using pixel or OP devices)

Very understandable, I just use Google Photos to back them up. Anything else I have downloaded I just redownload.
Now I do prefer to use a SD card when I root a phone even though my OnePlus 7 Pro doesn't have one.
When I bought my S10+ I took one of the 128gb SD cards I use in my GoPro 7 black and popped it in (I'm 100% sure the speed of it is overkill, SanDisk Extreme PRO). I just checked and have 119.6 available...lol. The only thing on it is two old sms backups, I've since switched to backing them up to my Google Drive.
If you don't mind spending the money it's an amazing card. When I receive my Note 10+ I don't think I'm using a SD and my S10+ will be just my backup phone so the SD card will make it's way back to the GoPro.

Depends if your full or not.
Ive been using a 64gb i got from one of the samsug promo for a while then got a 128gb in another promo. So i use that, but its not even half full.
I've ordered the Samsung 512Gb Evo plus, mainly so I can move the 128Gb in my Note 9 currently to the Tab S6 when it arrives though.
I am maxed on on the 64GB Note 8... Do have a 256GB card in it though which is about 3/4 the way full... Preordered the Note 10+ 512Gb 5G - and SOOO much want to get the 1TB cards that just came out on the market... but smarter to just wait until the insane proces come down.... Guess I'll just have to sit tight and wait... LOL

Did some research. There are UFS Memory cards on the market but the Note 10+ does not support it, it only supports microsd cards up to 1tb.
The ufs storage is MUCH faster and uses less power, and those removable cards are used in Samsung Notebooks (note the one on sale on eBay, check the compatibility part of the description), but they have not caught on yet for widespread use and that is the main issue.
They should have offered a Note 10+ compatible with ufs cards as well!

There's not much to be debating about external SD storage. Any higher quality microSD will do. I'm using the same 128GB San Disk Extreme as I had in my previous S10e with all the personal folders saved, like pictures, music etc... The only thing I did was to delete all the system remnants like Android related folders, Amazon music(it's proprietary-protected, it has to be reloaded from Amazon again) and that was it. My new N10+ has accepted that SD from S10s like it's own.

Not everyone is going to need the 512GB Evo Plus, but for those who might be interested in filming in 4k60fps for long duration it's practically a must. Just remember two years back a 128GB card was "Just plain unnecessary" but as the push for higher resolution in games, movies, and images continues the need for space to store them grows too. I grabbed a 512GB Evo Plus for $85 on Amazon, myself.
