Anyone tryed 32 Gb SDHC?

i want buy 16gb memory but may be 32gb have unofficial support.......

You may be better off getting a 16GB card as the 32GB cards are extremely rare and extremely expensive.

It's a supported format if it's SDHC so it should work. I'd still go with the 16GB because it's the safer option and you don't need 32GB of space on a phone.

You should never say such things, your needs are different from others needs. My 16GB card has 50mo left

Lol... Well yeah, it's possible to fill any amount of space. Having said that, I'd say anything that isn't used on a fortnightly basis is superfulous and as such, I doubt you've got 16GB of 'vital' data?
On another note... the more data on the storage card the slower the indexing and performance. So, I'd weigh up 'needs' rather than 'wants'. Hell, I'd love a 32Gb SDHC crad for my phone, but I wouldn't need the space and so couldn't justify the expense or the reduced performance or risk incompatability.
Still, good point

very well, but can anyone JUST TRY to check compartibility ?

Well i use my X1a as my music player in my car, so my 16gb is filled up, 32gb would be super nice since i have tons of music i still wanna put on my X1, and a couple of movies i may add!!

Is there such a thing as a 32gb micro sd card? I've never seen it.
Does anyone has a link to where I can get one?

I'm using my 16gb, very satisfied with how much room there is!

A 32GB card ought to work, in my opinion.

I wonder what will be the benchmark for the 32Gb? will it be slower that the 16Gb.. for example for the Class 4... is the 16Gb slower that the 4Gb stock microSD of X1?

the x1 does support cards up to 32gb.
or aleast thats what sony said

32GB Micro SD cards cannot be purchased yet.
The link at the beginning of this thread pointed to SD cards, not micro SD.
As the Micro SD slots are so small, I thought it'd be nice to have two in a phone so you can easily add capacity. Mind you, I've still got an 8gb and it's got a wee bittie of room left on it

[Q] reasons to choose 32gb model over 16gb model + micro sd card?

Hi, sorry if it's a redundant question, just haven't seen any threads on this in the Iconia forum. In UK the 32 gb model of A500 costs 50 pounds more than the 16 gb one, and 16 gb microsd costs less than 20 pounds. So are there some advantages of having 32gb internal storage instead 16gb+16gb? Can the space on sd card used the same as internal storage on A500? Thanks ahead!

You can't yet install applications on an external SD card, for example. It would be squarely for storing media. So I'd still rather suggest just taking the 32Gb one.

Same here, I have the 32G version.
Most apps can't be moved without rooting the tablet, some still crash if their data files aren't on local 'drive'
Navigation apps with huge map files go on local 'drive' - 4G of space each..
External is for movies, some data (ebooks, cbr or cbz comics, etc).

I got the 16gb but kinda wishing I would have spent the extra $50 for the 32gb.

I have the 32Gb and for sure if the 16 Gb have been present in store i will have bought the 16gb instead of 32 Gb (16 is far less expensive), and it's not easy (for me) to use ALL the 32Gb ^^
after one month, still 23 Gb free...on 27Gb

Thanks all for your replies. I'm curious if apps like dropbox can make use of the space on micro sd. Anyone has experience on that?

Any ideas On my Sd Card problem
I just got a PNY 32 GIG SD Card I'm running the Virtuous Thrive 1.0.1.
My card came pre formatted Fat32 It is showing up on my tablet as around 8 gigs. Shows fine on my computer. Any ideas....
Thanks

I use the external_sd for media storage, backups with mybackup pro, and I set the browser download folder to default to there too. Also can access docs there by rooting the tablet and using usb mount all to fool docs to go into reading the external memory. I have over 100 downloaded apps installed on my internal 16gb storage and still have 10gb free there.

I originally had a 32gb a500, but then found the 16gb for $200 cheaper.
I ended up with the 16gb and purchased a 32gb SD card.
I don't use the tab for gaming, primarily browsing, movies, Google music and chatting. I'm not obsessed with apps anyway.

I kind prefer having cheaper 16gb and put 32gb sd where all the backups from the roms will go and for the media I glued the 500gb portable drive.

I personally prefer having the 32Gb version + 32Gb SDHC, meaning I've got huge loads of storage space on it

I have the 16GB LOADED with apps with a 16GB Micro SD card and haven't even scratched the surface on the internal storage. Don't think the 32GB is a must but if you can spare the coin, why not?

Poll: Now that you have your 32GB, do you still want 64?

I've had my 32GB Nexus 6 since 11/19 and am really liking it. I have over 25 GB still after loading all my typical music and apps. At this point, I'm not really sure I want a 64 GB--though I had initially wanted one--even didn't try to buy a 32GB the 1st week looking only at the elusive 64's.
How many of you 32'ers out there still want more memory?

I've always had either a 8GB or 16GB phone, 32GB is already a step up for me. Even with 16GB I never filled the phone up. I'll typically have some pictures and music on my phone, I don't have a need to keep a bunch of stuff on there that I'm not using. If I needed to go over 32GB's there would be a lot of stuff on my phone that I never use.

I was originally pining for the 64GB, but just to have the best of the best.
My Nexus 7 is 32, and I've never come close to filling it. I'm sure that's different for everyone, but with cloud services galore I need very little storage for shot vids and pictures. With all apps installed and 20+GB to spare, I no longer regret my decision or want a 64GB model.

The 64 would just mean 32gb worth of extra crap wasting room.
I don't store much locally other than backups, so I have plenty of room.

I had a 32gb LG G3 with a 64gb Micro SD in it before the Nexus 6. I used approximately 5gb on the card and maybe the same on the phone. More than 32gb is overkill for me since I don't put music on the phone and I don't download tons of games.

I haven't pulled the trigger on the N6 yet, awaiting to see how VZ will screw me over...
On the side though, currently using a GNex, I never filled it up either, have about 10Gb free, however that said, I haven't loaded games or a lot of apps onto it, only what I need, and if not used often I uninstall basically to not have to deal with any background processes that may run due to an app being installed.
But given the choice, and I hope I am, I'll likely settle on the 64Gb, because I typically only have one phone at a time, and keep it longer then what most of us here would consider normal, I mean, I'm hitting three years on the GNex, and figure I'll be doing the same if it is an N6, so for a few bucks more grab the extra storage, easier than wishing I had it IF I fill up a 32Gb ...

Got my 32 blue today and it is more than enough. I don't store movies or play games and i only store about 2-4 gigs of music and it gives me enough space to do a ROM backup, etc.

I'm just glad I have a Nexus 6, 32GB is enough for me.

I have had a Nexus 5 with 32 GB for about a year, and it almost always has > 20GB free. I figured if I never used all the memory on the N5 I sure didn't need twice as much on the N6, so I went with the 32. I'm sure it will be more than enough.

Would I have loved getting a 64GB? Yes but the 32GB will do just fine for me. Coming from a Note 2 I barely used any space on the internal storage and I really only used about 15GB on my 64GB micro sd card. I mostly stream my music so I won't have to worry about that. I also don't keep numerous roms on my device storage either. Worst case scenario I'll just by an OTG flash drive if I really need the space.

Well I was going to wait for the 64 version from ATT.....then my local store received a big shipment of one last night...so I impulse bought it lol. I didn't have an issue with my N5 16GB, so I think I'll just stick with it.

I have more than 21 GB available, so I'm sure I'll be just fine with the 32 GB.

external storage, no problem
now that I found that you can use an external micro usb sitck as external storage... I connect the usb stick, when on the wireless charging pad for additional power draw of the stick, and use it just for nandroid backups and tibu dump site. then remove it, relieving the 32gb onboard just to do phone stuff. plenty of room now.:good:

I ordered a blue 32gb, expect Sensei Kernel on this beast

I just received my 32 GB from Moto. I am really liking it though I still want my 64GB from T-mo that is in back order purgatory.

On the 32gb model, how much storage is available after initial setup? Thinking of picking up a N6 once it comes back in stock and was trying to decide if 32gb would suffice.

24-25GB

It depends how you use your phone... personally i have no issue what so ever with 32GB... in fact i had 8 GB free on my 16GB Nexus 5 , so 25GB ( usable ) is a **** tonne for me
I use Spotify for music and plex for movies , so a lot of streaming on my end

I returned my 32gb and ordered a 64gb... But I'm getting tired of waiting and may just cancel my order and say screw it and just use my iPhone 6.. T-mobile's order process sucks.!

Any reason to buy the 64gb model?

I know sd cards are slower than internal RAM, but anything above 20GB or so is probably going to be media files anyway, so is there any real advantage to having 64gb onboard RAM instead of just getting the 32gb version and adding an sdcard?

I did. I think for the value and resale its worth it. I have a 64gb card, but things are just more snappy with onboard memory.

You won't run out of internal space for apps and their databases.
If you are spending $450, go the extra and get 64GB. YMMV.

It's not about the money. Amazon has 32gb models in stock right now but Moto is telling me I can't get a 64gb model until Oct. 2. If the ONLY difference is RAM capacity I may pull the trigger on the Amazon model.

32GB and 64GB models have the same amount of RAM, I don't know what you're blabbing about. You probably mean onboard storage and yes the only difference is more onboard storage, nothing more.

Got the 16gb with a 128gb scandisk card. When M gets released and we able to use the micro card without root to use the micro card as storage for apps,.... Awesome!

Do you plan on taking 4k video? Yes or no, there's your answer.

With this phone being unlocked, we could very well see dual booting. Roms will run better on internal memory.
And videos. My kids are 2 and 4 so we take a lot of videos.
And downloads in general (roms, etc). Most everything goes to internal storage.

This is exactly what I did I got the 128gb (SanDisk Ultra 128GB Ultra Micro SDXC UHS-I) from amazon and the 16gb from moto maker. I have the card, but not the phone yet .

Seems like it's a personal choice. If you want to 'get it now' go with the 32GB from Amazon. If you can wait (and want to) then it's another matter. I normally wait to see and don't jump at the first opportunity but to each their own.

Been taking 4K videos straight to my scandisk ultra plus card. No problem whatsoever.

What size storage did you go with?

I went with 16 cuz I'm cheap, don't have much on my phone, basic social media stuff. and can always expand for cheaper... oh btw, random question if we wanted to install apps to SD does that feature exist in this device?

I probably could have gone with 16 but got the 32 ... Can never have too much storage ?

i personally have had 16gb devices forever and cant even fill 2-3gb of it, i dont use my smart phone for pictures, or games, i mainly text, web, social media etc.. so i figured 16gb good enough again this time around, ha.

16gb and got a 64gb microSD

I went a splurged on the 64gb model and slapped in a Samsung performance 64gb MicroSD card that amazon had on special. after burning through space on 32gb phones even after putting in 64gb cards i wanted as much space as i could get. those HD movies for trips add up fast along with those big premium games (Im looking at you San Andres and Vain glory!) plus music, pics and 4K/Full HD video will catch up before you know it.

I was going to go with 16GBs but after reading how that is not ideal for current/future apps I went with the 32GB model. I plan to put a 128GB SDCard for games, music, and photos. I did originally think if I went with 32GBs I would surely order the white/champagne model but ultimately I ordered black/grey.

32GB.. then slapped in a 128GB microSD...

Yep. I'm hardcore with my .flac files.
