I have had my mobiles all with internal storage since my first smartphone, and so had both the limits of whatever the phone had and also the simplicity of one storage. I'm now getting into the G4P and I had a 64GB and a 128GB microSD card, the 64GB was in a family member's phone and worked fine, the 128GB I found less reliable, I got another G4P and found the SD card was often not being seen by the phone, and taking back cover off and rebooting etc, and if it did work I was getting like 2MB-4MB.

Anyhow, older wiser, I bought a Samsung Evo+ card based on reviews, unlike the daily deal brand I got before, and its night+day different. I can now tell the Moto camera app to write to SD and it doesn't crash, and the card stays visible.

If you're making the journey into the G4P don't skimp on the cheapest SD card it ruins the experience.

Not sure if size makes a difference but I'm currently using a 32gb high speed card in my g4p and it was pretty cheap at Walmart. It also seems to work very well.

32 gb card is enough for me to deal with.

I bought 32 gb sd card along with g4 play from amazon and my friend bought same with 64. He is facing phone storage issue whereas I am not. I think sdhc card is more reliable than sdxc.

I'm currently using a 64 GB MicroSDXC UHS-I Card from the relatively unknown manufacturer 'QUMOX'.
I was pleasantly surprised.Particularly with regard to the comparatively low cost.

In any case is the performance as every bit as good as the from SanDisk based on my experience.

I'm using a 32GB Kingston card, SDHC, that I purchased in November of 2014 for my LG F6. I replaced that phone 2 weeks ago with a Moto G4P, and I have had zero trouble with it. My music collection is on there, and I've been using it every single day since I purchased it.
