Default 64 SDXC card compatible?

I think i've seen a few people with a 64GB SDXC microSD card. Does this work or not? I haven't seen any place that confirms what type of microSD cards work (normal, HC, XC) yet.
i don't want to waste the money on it if it doesn't actually work.

I was told by AT&T that i could use a 32gb microSD, as the max. Maybe a store like BestBuy would let you try it out first. Good luck.

I work at AT&T and everything says 32GB max and that's what I relay to my customers. I've used a 32GB HC card, I've thought of trying a 64GB card, but didn't want to waste the money on it if it ended up not working. I have to go to Best Buy tomorrow, so I'll ask if I can test one out.

Dont think it will work well for devices using the FAT32 format for their media. There are ways to read and possibly write to 64GB sd cards, but mostly involve formatting the card using you PC.

Havent held a 64GB sd card in my hands, but if it can work it would probably be the last sd card I ever own

No luck with Best Buy. They didn't let me try it out. But if what Omnimax is saying is true, there's no use buying one.

Yes it will work. When you first pop it in it will say that is corrupt, but after reformatting it within Android Storage settings you will have 64 GB's. I had one for my Inspire but I thought it wasn't worth it so I sold it on eBay and got a 32 GB microSD, a case, an extended battery, and a screen protector instead.

Maybe I just might pick one up then. Any specific card or will any work?

I got the SanDisk one, but I'm sure others will work as well.

Default Hmmmm

I wouldn't mind one myself but they are rather pricey at 220.00 a pop!

Hopefully the price will come down soon. I can get an SDHC 32g locally from Fry's for about a dollar a g unless its on sale then its even cheaper!!
