When I got the card I right away put it in the phone. I wanted to see if the phone recognized it right away or if I was going to first have to format it. The phone recognized the card immediately. It shows 59.8GB available. I then took out the card and inserted it in my laptop so I can transfer everything that I originally had on my older card. I was afraid after doing that the phone would have difficulty reading the card. Well, the card worked great. All my information was in there and now have a total of 73GB available including my phones memory.
If you have a Galaxy S3 and have been wondering if this will work well with the phone, it does. I would recommend this for anyone who really wants to add a good amount of memory with good speed as well.I ordered this 64gb micro SD card because my music collection is simply too large to fit on the 32gb card I had in my android phone. This new card doesn't disappoint. You lose about 4gb due to the vagaries of the FAT32 format, but that's to be expected. The net result is for $160 I have a phone with 76 gb of space (70 useable after file system reserves), which outdoes almost anything on the market.
What is absolutely great is that the card works in some older android phones, even though the manufacturers have not promised it will. I am using it in my Samsung Galaxy S, which is supposedly limited to handling only a 32gb card, but it works great. When you pop it in, you have to format it, and after that it's treated exactly like any other card, but with more space. I've read elsewhere that the card will work with a number of other older android phones, but I recommend you look into it before buying one.
This is way better than having to buy a $900 phone because I needed more space.
A word about speed: I'm only using this card for music. I believe it is fast, but I haven't tried any situation that demands the speed, so I really don't know.
Overall, if you need the space, I highly recommend this card.I received the item and it works flawlessly in my Galaxy S2. It did however take quite a while to transfer 52gb of music.listing as class 10.
part number not for the class 10 model!
I returned it after I was sent a class 6!
I had to pay return postage
they seem to mismanage their inventory and mix up their listings.
don't trust a company that labels their product "NEW MODEL" for months and has mixed part numbers
you can find the genuine product elsewhere on Amazon for cheaper often sold by and fulfilled by Amazon itself
opinion
I wouldn't be surprised to learn they were shipping counterfeits or factory rejectsThe card is working perfectly in my Galaxy S2. Just format it in the phone and it will show up as 59.46GB total space. Be aware that having a huge SD card with thousands of MP3s will make your phone boot up more slowly, due to the time taken by the media scan.
The included card reader is compact, has caps on both ends, and accepts the micro-SD card directly (no need to use the included adapter).
