Can anyone recommend a good SD card? I was thinking of buying a Sandisk Ultra II 2Gb SD card.
Also, a new format of SD card has appeared. It is called SDHC and is not backwards compatible with 'old' SD devices, despite being physically identical to the standard SD cards. This new technology pushes card capacity to 8Gb!
I know for sure that some digital camera manufacturers have released a firmware upgrade to make some of their models compatible with SDHC. Perhaps this can be done on Prophet as well.
Just got a 4 GB SDHC card and it's useless on my 818 pro. From what i've learned here, the 818 pro only takes the old 4GB SD card. I suggest you try it 1st if the vendor will allow you.
I agreed .
I USED to 2G kingmax SD
what kind of SD
I use a Transcend 150x 4 GO.
I forget all usb key.
I wonder which is the best 8/16gb card for our hd2? My sd card is a 8gb class 4 but is soooo slow. I want a good card, dont care about the price
You didn't search very hard!!
Have a look here...

i wonder if note 4 could support this new kind of sdcard ??
Hi,
yes. The Note 4 supports 200GB MicroSD cards. I have a SanDisk 200GB card in my phone. No issues so far.
Regards
Stephan
I have the same one as well. 10gb partitioned for link2sd and the rest for storage. zero problems
This may sound stupid, but i will go for it and ask. Can you make ext sd + phone sd to work in RAID ?
Hi Sectoras,
no, RAID is not possible. And what RAID should it be? Mirroring, Striping, Raid 5, Raid 6?
You are thinking about a joined memory of internal and external SD card, right? This will be possible with Android 6 / Marshmallow.

I was thinking about RAID0 (Striping i think) to improve performance. If MM support such thing it could be awesome

No, it does not support striping. What it does support is called "Just a bunch of disks" (JBOD) but that's no RAID. JBOD is a storage volume created by joinig disks (here SD cards) of different sizes. JBOD does not improve performance, it just supplies you a single storage using all memory cards (Phone 32GB + ext. SDcard 200GB). There is also no data security (redundancy of data). Therefore RAID 0 (striping) is, technically spoken, not a RAID as well because of the missing data redundancy.
I also expect several issues with the JBOD solution of Android 6. The externa SD card is much slower than the internal memory which might have and according to some reports on the net does have adverse effects on the loading speed of apps and data. Also when the SD card breaks you will probably have to re-install the complete phone as you have no influence on where the apps and data are stored.
I saw a 256GB micro sd card. I'm assuming that will work too?
Yes, should work if the 256GB is an SDXC card.
If a phone supports SDXC cards based on the SDA 3.0 specifications (like the Sandisk 200GB card) it will support every SDXC card following that standard.
SDXC supports 64GB up to 2TB.
If some day there will be for example a 512GB or 1TB SDCX card available it should also work with the Note 4.

256GB Micro SD cards don't exist only 200GB
You either saw a regular 256 GB SD card or a fake 256GB micro SD card which has been reviewed as BS.

There is no such thing as a 256GB microSD card at this time. Biggest one you can find is the 200GB one mentioned.
256gb

ur wrong.. 200gb is not the last high capacity micro sd.. their is one micro sd with 512 gb capacity.. company name is Microdia.. just google about it..
The 512GB card from Microdia doesn't exist yet. At one point they were claiming it would be out 8 months ago (and was going to cost $1000) - but again it does not exist yet (and might never be as it's been almost a year since they maid these claims). I've seen plenty of people scammed and ripped of on these cards - again - THERE IS NOTHING BIGGER THAN THE 200GB for sale at this time.
Interesting I didn't know the Note 4 could support a microSDCard of that size, I thought the largest card that can be used is a 128GB card.

Hey, can you briefly describe how it's partitioned? I didn't know Android phones can take microsd cards that have 2 partitions? Are both exFat?
Thx
Hi,
internal storage on my Moto G4 (16gb) is full, so I need to buy a micro sd card.
What model is best suitable for my smartphone? I've read some great reviews about Samsung Evo Plus 64gb but it is not available on Amazon in my country right now.
In my phone at the moment I have a Samsung Evo 32 gb (normal, not plus version) but I think it's too small.
Thanks
Any micro sd card uhs 1 with read/write better than 60/50 mb/s will be good.
Hello, can anyone test 256 gb sdcard with mi a1, I know the specs said it can only support up to 128gb SD card ,I want to test but I don't have 256gb SD card
Ty
Why would you anyone get a 256GB SD to see if it works? It's useless....
Why, because if it work I want to use it, for storing movie and work stuff
I don't have 256gb sdcard ,that's why I posted here and asked anyone who owned a 256gb sdcard to test it with their device
I use 200gb memory card without any problem.
I also have a 200gb, system says its a 256gb card with 61gb used by system, which makes it have about 180gb free, so exactly what I'd expect, works without problems
Thanks bro, now I can buy the 256gb sdcard without hesitation

Are you using Oreo? The is a bug where cards are reported as being double their actual size so it looks like your card is actually only recognised as a 128GB.

I am using oreo, but I can still copy more than 128gb to the card without problems
So how did the 256 GB card work out for you?
On the subject of testing sd cards: Did anybody test 400 or 500gb?
