What do you all use, I'm interested to see what is the best for speed & capacity,I don't know if it supports the new UFS standard or if any of those cards exist (or fit) yet.
I got a Lexar UHS-1class card 128 Gb. Pretty sure it's overkill.

Is that fast enough?
See people going for higher specs.
I'm using the SanDisk 200Gb card that came with my LG V10 - didn't want to wait for the 256 Gb from Samsung.
Using the 256gb I got from Samsung. Working great and is a super fast card.

As far as I am aware, the S8 does not have the hardware to support UHS-2 or 3 so there will be no benefit in using UHS-3 cards. They will be compatible but will just operate as UHS-1 cards.

Samsung 256gb Evo+. They have it on Amazon with all the specs. The phone doesn't take advantage of the full speed though.

I currently use the samsung 128gb pro plus UHS-1 U3
It's pretty fast, it's rated for 95MB/s read and 90MB/s write but the s8+ can't fully utilize those speeds.

Right, the s8 doesn't support UHS-II but it does support U3
Which are two separate things.
got 256GB Samsung card for free with N7. Fast enough to play or record 4k video without any issues. Got about 65 MB read, 40MB Write on the phone, it runs faster on computer, I think I got 100MB read if I'm not mistaken.

You are mixing up u3 with uhs3, that card is u3 it's graded for 4k 30fps recording.qnd it's fully supported by s8. I ordered SanDisk 128gb extreme still waiting for it

No I'm not, there is no such thing as UHS-III, it's only UHS-I OR UHS-II at the moment and the s8 only supports UHS-I not UHS-II, the speed class U1 U2 and U3 is completely different and are the minimum speed requirements for that class card, U1 is minimum 10MB/s, the U2 is minimum 20MB/s and the U3 class card is minimum 30MB/s. And the s8 supports U1 U2 and U3 like I said in my original post.

using sd card tester on a Samsung pro UHS-1 microsd card I get 11MB/s write and 30MB/s read so not the full potential but still better than just a class 10 card.

For increasing your read or write speed of your sd cards. You have to ROOT your device. Once you do that Tweak your SD Cache value. Your RD/WR speed will increase considerably.
FYI the sweet spot for my Class 6 SD card is 3072KB.
Good Luck
Yes, t if the phone has an uhs1 compatible slot, it would be much faster..

Had posted a similar query to the Samsung support staff; their reply was that the S4 optimally supports Class 10 microSD card. No point in spending money for a I/O device which doesn't use its full potential.

Smartphones didn't catch up yet with the speeds of the new Sd cards. Perhaps future smartphone models will. Your card is fine.
The i9505 at least doesn't even come close to UHS-1 speeds with my Samsung 64gb uhs-1 microsd.

That's disappointing - I bought a 16GB UHS-1 card which does about 90MB/sec in my USB 3.0 reader... on the S4 I get 10-20MB/sec. Alright for storage, but not good for app data.

Exactly, at this time those high speeds can only be achieved with a dedicated card reader. AFAIK there is no smartphone yet to support UHS-1 high speed. Even so, comparing the Sd card speed test results from your phone with other cards on the market, you're good. Most important is in my opinion is to have a reliable, error free Sd card.
Can anyone confirm what is the maximum capacity SD card that can use with Note 3, planing to upgrade my 64Gb to higher capacity.
64gb is the reported max however i have heard that some have used 128gb card with success... not sure on anything else though (like 256gb card)
is there any links or sharing from users to confirm this ?
I tested a 128 GB in a store here and it mounted, but if I'm able to go beyond 64 GB of storage with that card I don't know, if not I suppose I could divide it into two 64 GB cards.

You say there was a 128GB microSD card and you tested with that in your Note3? What card/brand was that microSD?

linitx.com/product/sdmicro-to-sd-card-adapter/11922
Here is an adaptor to fit a standard sd card. You can theoretically go up to 2Tb but I have a 128gb card working in my Note 3 and older SG note 10.1...
SDXC spec is up to 2TB and all modern phones should be able to handle that no problem. The reason they advertise 64GB is that is the maximum size actually available in microSD format at release, but when larger ones come around or you use a full size SD with adapter as long as it is SDXC it will work. My guess would also be that theoretically a new SD protocol could be added at the kernel level but this phone won't be receiving that update as SDXC has many years left to go until we reach 2TB SD cards.

The Note 3 can recognize up to 2TB. All the new storage technology has so far been backward compatible, so the since released 128, 200 & 264GB SD cards should work fine. 2013+SD Drivers will all be backward compatible till 2TB.
64gb, anything else may work, for awhile but then it will start showing that the files on it are gone. If you use a card bigger than 64gb don't save anything to it that you use or want to save. Shame because the note 3 is definitely one of Samsung better phones!
I learned the hard way, with 2 sdcards from 2 different manufacturers, 64gb sdcard, maximum.

Either something wrong with your phone, rom or sd card.....
I use 128gb sd cards in all of my phones with no problems, and they are pretty much full too. Everything works and no problems.
Have backups of roms, APK's I don't wish to hunt for again (they update after install so no problem running old APK files), music and video files. Pictures, both from camera and stuff I've got elsewhere, text files, both for work and play. All works fine.
I even dabbled with a 200gb Sandisk but put that in another newer device...

Samsung 64GB very fast microSD

These are advertised speeds, I don't know about reliability and actual speeds. Somehow I'm more inclined buying the Samsung one, somehow it makes me feel it's more compatible. Just my opinion.

There are numerous people on here, and on other forums, that also has had issues with the Samsung cards. SD cards are a hit and miss these days.
I personally went for the latest Samsung pro 64GB one that was released today on Amazon. Hoping it can last for a long time, but we'll see.
Just wondering if anyone could agreed some light on this issue. I bought my Moto X Force yesterday and decided to use my 64gb Sansisk Class 10 UHS-1 card as internal storage. However for some reason the phone did not recommend this stating the card was slow. It's speed is what is recommended from Motorola so not sure why it said this. Thanks.

You should use a Class 10 - U3 card. U1 cards have reasonable read speeds but generally inconsistent poor write speeds. It's why they are so cheap these days.
For internal storage use and especially maintaining performance and no hiccuping with 4k recording etc, you should stick to U3 variants which have far greater and consistent write speeds.
Essentially not all Class 10 cards are fast, and you do get what you pay for ...

hey everyone,
does anybody know which sd card standards are supported by the s7 edge? UHS-I, UHS-II ..... I can't find any informations about this.
This leads to the question if it's just "burning money" to buy a hight quality sd card with UHS-II standard because the S7 can't utilize the performance the card offers or if it can utilize it and it would be a performance win to have such a good sd card.

S7 tops out at a little under 80mb/s read and about 60mb/s write. So fast uhs 1 cards are enough.
If you buy a sandisk extreme pro (uhs 1 rated 95 MB read), DON'T format it. It will slow down the write speed a lot. The sd formatter Programm helped a little but still about 5-8mb/s slow than before at write speed in a1 sd bench. Androbench didn't change much.

The BGR link is recommending that "...if you’re looking for flagship performance from your memory for these particualr [sic] smartphones, this is the best card to purchase right now"
Considering that everything we know right now indicates that UHS-II is not implemented (note the distinction between implemented and supported) it would appear that their opinion is about as good as their proof-reading.
