Enjoy it. It's a great card to use in your Android device.
Plus, the included adaptor is very handy.

Yes, I have a couple of them. I had an El-Cheapo 16GB one but it died, so I'm currently using an 8GB card like some sort of wild animal. It's awful!!

Was just about to buy when I saw this on Amazon.co.uk

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-UHS-1-Class-MicroSD-Memory/dp/B00K75UYHW/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1402311026&sr=8-4&keywords=64gb+micro+sd

Specs are the same, I have a 32GB samsung card for about 10 months in my phone without issues. So this one comes in at ~31 euro. Worth considering, I understand that the it's not the same brand, so some may have a preference for SanDisk.

Goodness gracious... You're vile!

The Sandisks are very reliable though, and I have found them to perform very well. Bloody handy to have.

Checks out. Samsung are apparently very good also, as the reviews say.

Yes, I saw that but they don't deliver to the RoI. You get a lot of that on UK Amazon, for some reason. So that's another €3.50 for Parcel Motel. Six of one... :pac:

Good stuff, I'm heading stateside in a few weeks so will get some of these delivered to the villa management co and they'll hold onto them for me...

Hmm. Dunno what's going on there, chief - it wouldn't hear of it with me until I changed the delivery address to PM in Norn Iron.

StaticNoise · 09-06-2014 11:41AM

Don't mind that, it'll work fine.

That's class 1, OPs is 10.

300mb compared to a relatively measly 30mb speed.

The image is Class 1 but spec says Class 10.

Where did you get 300mb?

andersat2 · 09-06-2014 02:48PM

just keep in mind, that those SanDisk cards are fake ones.
Real SanDisk 64GB will never (well,.. never say never, but not sooner than in 3 years time) cost 29USD or below 30 Euro.
Those selling on amazon and Ebay are cheap Chineese replicas.
In addition to that, you'll get those cards in bulk packaging (not a retail one).
Most of them will work fine, but it's 50/50 chance that they could fail.

Ebay, possibly. The ones on Amazon are not cheap Chinese replicas.

There are now more than one scale of speed class. The above being equal (or better) than Class 10 of old.

Some good prices on this. I hate import costs tho

deadanonymau5 · 09-06-2014 04:42PM

Sandisk cards are known to cause issues with some Android devices (Samsung Galaxys atleast). A quick google search before you buy one for your device would let you know!

So why do they say they are UHS class 1 then?

i'd just like to second this. people thinking they know what they're talking about when they clearly don't and it just confuses people.

i have two of these exact 64gb sandisk cards (one in my phone, one in my dashcam) as well as two 32gb ones, all bought directly from amazon.co.uk and they are 100% authentic as tested by myself with H2testw when i purchased them.

they ARE UHS1 cards which is equal to or better than Class 10, with speeds *up to* 50MB/s, but no less than 10MB/s as per the UHS1 standard.

Stupid question maybe, but how and ever - will the Samsung SD card work in electronics other than just Samsung brands ? E.G. Sumvison media player which supports SD cards. Or even Sandisks own media player?

Raging I missed this, wanted to bump up the space on my 3ds!
