Which Memory card?

[neils31]

So ordered the 10+ 512gb 5G (uk) version, was wondering if it would be worth my while to get a new memory card, or use the 64GB one I have had a few years?

What recommendations do you have for a new card, will it be faster etc?
thanks

I think I'll continue to use the one that came with my Note-8.

I'm going to add in the one I got for the note 7 pre-order. High speed sd not that big of a deal to me on a phone. Others may disagree

I use this card: https://amzn.to/300f7NM

Honest question, what would you need a memory card for with the 512gb version?

I agree its a lot of storage, but if the phone locks up and i have to hard reset, i will probaly lose everything. Thats why i prefer a memory card.

Yeah for sure ,, I have admittedly in the past fiddled around with ROMs and mods so it was really an issue then

I've even screwed up and formatted SD cards before lol UGH

But I definitely prefer to try to store things -- photos, documents, etc on an SD card (really hard to get used to not having that when trying/using pixel or OP devices)

Very understandable, I just use Google Photos to back them up. Anything else I have downloaded I just redownload.

Now I do prefer to use a SD card when I root a phone even though my OnePlus 7 Pro doesn't have one.

When I bought my S10+ I took one of the 128gb SD cards I use in my GoPro 7 black and popped it in (I'm 100% sure the speed of it is overkill, SanDisk Extreme PRO). I just checked and have 119.6 available...lol. The only thing on it is two old sms backups, I've since switched to backing them up to my Google Drive.

If you don't mind spending the money it's an amazing card. When I receive my Note 10+ I don't think I'm using a SD and my S10+ will be just my backup phone so the SD card will make it's way back to the GoPro.

Depends if your full or not.
Ive been using a 64gb i got from one of the samsug promo for a while then got a 128gb in another promo. So i use that, but its not even half full.

I've ordered the Samsung 512Gb Evo plus, mainly so I can move the 128Gb in my Note 9 currently to the Tab S6 when it arrives though.

I am maxed on on the 64GB Note 8... Do have a 256GB card in it though which is about 3/4 the way full... Preordered the Note 10+ 512Gb 5G - and SOOO much want to get the 1TB cards that just came out on the market... but smarter to just wait until the insane proces come down.... Guess I'll just have to sit tight and wait... LOL

Because Note 10 plus has UFS 3.0 I need to know if UFS memory cards will work in note 10 +.

I doubt it but it would be so nice if they did!

Did some research. There are UFS Memory cards on the market but the Note 10+ does not support it, it only supports microsd cards up to 1tb.

The ufs storage is MUCH faster and uses less power, and those removable cards are used in Samsung Notebooks (note the one on sale on eBay, check the compatibility part of the description), but they have not caught on yet for widespread use and that is the main issue.

They should have offered a Note 10+ compatible with ufs cards as well!

This article although not very well written and 8 months old, is a somewhat good overview:

Speed ?

 

[mzsquared]

There's not much to be debating about external SD storage. Any higher quality microSD will do. I'm using the same 128GB San Disk Extreme as I had in my previous S10e with all the personal folders saved, like pictures, music etc... The only thing I did was to delete all the system remnants like Android related folders, Amazon music(it's proprietary-protected, it has to be reloaded from Amazon again) and that was it. My new N10+ has accepted that SD from S10s like it's own.

Speed ?

This is my 256GB U3 mSD card, and another of internal UFS3.

That's pretty good.

I'm using the Samsung 512GB Evo Plus micro SD with my unlocked 512GB Note 10 Plus and the transfer rates seems pretty quick.

Not everyone is going to need the 512GB Evo Plus, but for those who might be interested in filming in 4k60fps for long duration it's practically a must. Just remember two years back a 128GB card was "Just plain unnecessary" but as the push for higher resolution in games, movies, and images continues the need for space to store them grows too. I grabbed a 512GB Evo Plus for $85 on Amazon, myself.

Wow nice price. I paid $125 at Best Buy.
