Lets Talk About SDCARDS

[Neurom707]

So what micro sdcards are people using as i need a new one want 32GB at least. Does it support 64? Preferably an amazon link!

link below, you can go 64gb or 128gb if you like. on 4.4.2 you might have to do the KK SDcard fix, which is simply editing a file in permissions and allowing RW access to the sd card. Might be the same for Lollipop, but I'm not there yet on my phone.

One thing I did find is that I get lag if I stick loads of music on there and use the stock app, so I use rocket player as it handles that better.

I haven't tested it, but I read that it worked fine. It's slightly outside my price point at the moment, once they drop a little buy one.

I think I read somewhere that the G3 actually supported up to 3TB SD cards ! (And yes, I know there's no card that big, but it just means it works ! )

Just get any class 10 sd card.

Just as a PSA, Best Buy is having a pretty good sale on Samsung micro sd cards. I got a 64gb "evo" for $25. Steady write rate, according to us file explorer, on 40mbps.
I can finally explore some 4k recording.

Sdcards for LG G3

In most regions the LG G3 comes with a hearty 32GB of internal storage, leaving nearly 25GB for you to use as you wish. As is often the case, one size never fits everyone — and if you need more than 32GB in your mobile device, you'll have to resort to using an external SD card to expand it. The LG G3's MicroSD card slot supports up to 128GB cards, giving you more room than you'd likely ever be able to fill.

I can recommend mymemory.co.uk. they aren't scroungers like Amazon and their prices are much better!

Since I'm newly out of iPhone world, and into LG G3, Android and sdcards ... and I already had a problem with bad 32gb (fake chinese) SunDisk sdcard, which could write to it , but every file wouldd in a day or two get corrupted .. When I inserted the old (and slow) 16gb card , it works as it should...
But, could You refer me or explain, what can / can't I put on the card in my LG D858hk, with 4.4.2. Android. What can I do on stock LG Android, and what with rooting ?

Also, recommend some good quality 32gb at least , preferably 64gb ... since I am a massive hoarder of music etc.

You can put whatever you want on your sd card but id just use it for pictures and music etc. As for root its the equivalent of heartbreaking on ios there is plenty out there id do research before doing anything to do with root or bump. And for sdcard just get one with a good r/w speed and your golden i got a 32gb samsung evo card from amazon for aroung £15 they also go upto 64gb

128gb card

I've been using a Sandisk 128GB card for a couple of months now. Currently about half full with music. Reads / writes fine with no discernible real world difference compared to the 16GB card I had previously.
Can't say how it might work with stock, I am Rooted and booted using Cyanogenmod 12 by Manupse. No complaints.

From what I understand, the Samsung Pro cards are great. The one you posted is the last generation one. The current one is rated at up to 90MBps read and up to 50MBps write, and isn't that much more at $59.99.

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Class-Adapter-MB-MG64DA-AM/dp/B00IVPU88U

This being said, people tend to prefer the Samsung EVO cards for phone use. They're substantially less expensive ($35.79 shipped):

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Class-Adapter-MB-MP64DA-AM/dp/B00IVPU7AO

The reason people tend to prefer the less expensive EVO cards is their faster 4k random read/write speeds, which is arguably the most important aspect for phone use.

Here's the 64GB Samsung EVO micro SD:

Here's the 64GB Samsung Pro micro SD:

If you're using it in a camera, 4k camcorder, or transferring big files, I can see preferring the Pro. Then again, you can get the very similar PNY Turbo 64GB card (up to 90MBps read) for $27.99 shipped right now, which is less than 1/2 the price.
