I want to know what kind of micro sd cards are supported by Huawei Media Pad M3. I want to buy a 128GB (or 200GB...why not?) sd card but I didn't find any info about supported sizes or trademarks.
Thanks in advance

Sandisk Ultra 200GB. The SD Insight App says the model is SL200.
I am using a LG branded 200GB SDCard which shows interestingly up as a Sandisk SD on the Huawei Tablet.
Works without issue.
What filesystem are you using for the 128GB card? Can we use exfat or ntfs and use large files like mkv movies larger than 4GB?

Anybody know whether the mediapad M3 supports UHS-II speeds?
I am using a Samsung 256GB card now without any issue.
Do you think the 256 would work with a usa sold model.

its all good. Adoptable storage is where you can configure android to use the SD card as internal storage. EMUI does not support this feature.

Its got Android 7.0 and EMUI 5.0. Thanks for the quick responce.
I'm planning to buy the M3 wifi 32 GB version online from amazon.com & I've also settled on the "SanDisk Ultra 128GB microSDXC UHS-I card" to use for storage. Since I won't be able to return anything after purchase (because I don't live in USA), I'd like to have confirmation about compatibility between this card and the tablet. Thanks in advance.

I had the same questions. I'm using a Sandisk SDXC 128GB microSD card formatted as exFat without any issues. The card came formatted already as exFat; I just popped it in. Storing large (>4GB) .m4v files on it and watching via VLC player. No issues whatsoever.
Which filesystem is best to use?
I got a Sandisk Ultra MicroSDXC UHS-1 card and I put it in my Huawei Mediapad M3. I'm not sure what is that strange file system called "Generic hierarchical". Should I leave it as is or format to NTFS or exFAT?
Note: I'm noticing that Windows 7 takes a weird long time to transfer files from my SSD on my main computer to the SD card. Is that weird file system the reason?
Does the HUAWEI MediaPad M3 8.0 support the UHS-II class micro sdcards?

Class number indicates how fast the read and write is. The larger the number the better.
SDHC is your standard micro sd card up to 32gb. While the SDXC can go up to 2 TB i think? Its format will also be exFat meaning it can read/store single file greater then 4gb. Not sure if SDXC exFat format is supported for S4? since S4 can read up to 64gb i assume it can read the 64gb class 10 SDXC cards. if not then you can convert it to FAT32 but it wont read a file which is greater than 4gb

Yes... unless that type is not supported by S4, i havent researched the S4 side yet. Currently im using a SDXC Class 10 64gb exFat format on my Nokia 808.
I think the packaging has the Green android robot guy with a label of Supports Android or something. I threw away my packaging but im using a Sandisk Ultra if that helps.
I cant vouch for S4 personally since i havent tried inserting it yet. Hope someone here has tried.
Thanks
Is there anyone that know for sure what is the best memory card for the s4 I9500?
I got a samsung 64gb pro class 10 sdxc. Works perfectly in my s4. Formatted the card within the phone and am able to transfer files larger than 4gb in it, so am assuming the phone formatted it to exfat.
Yea it's an option but I think I will take the 32gb, but for the 32gb I didn't find the xc model.
How is sdhc hc-1? Will it work or is there a better one that will work?

As of now i dont think you can move apps to the sd card. Only music, videos, images and other nonapp essential files can be stored in the sd card. Maybe after rooting?

From my understanding, the Galaxy S4 will only read up to 64gb. anything higher, phone won't read it. Also, some say to be careful with the Sandisk cards as they could be difficult to work with on the S4. I have a Samsung 32gb card and it works flawessly.
I have bought this tablet. In spec it writes microsd up to 32 gb. I want to install maximum storage. If i install 64 gb will it see it or not? Thanks,..
All the documents I have seen state it to be an SDXC slot which means it should read upto 2 terabyte cards if such things existed.
If it is however just an SDHC slot (which I doubt but then I have seen weirder things happen) it may either not read the card at all or read just 16gb of it, depends on what drivers and hardware are in use.
If it supports 32GB, it'll take more as well, I'm sure. My phone said it would only support up to 32 but took a 64GB card quite happily. My guess is just that at the time the spec sheet was written, 32GB was the best available. Stupidly short-sighted to write it that way, though; as 6677 points out, the SDXC spec allows for truly massive cards.

I wish to puchase a 128GB micro SD or even a 256GB micro SD for my Note 3, so I can load it with several movies and other stuff.
Does anybody knows if Note 3 support such big storage? Any issues? Has someone already tried to use 128GB Micro SD card?

Look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2472486. Myself haven't go through in details but i believe 128GB is possible
128 is the biggest available (on amazon, but deeply backordered - I bought mine like a month ago, and still no sign of shipping). The manufacturers appear to be supply constrained.
128GB of flash just barely fits into a microSD package with top-of-the-line process technology. That's the biggest we're going to see until another round of process shrinks (and this is why it's taken until now to bring out a 128gb microsD card).
However you can mod your phone with an sd card to micro sd card adaptor and use a 256gb up to 2 terabyte card - theoretically... People do use 256gb sd cards though. This is proven to work...

So does NOTE 3 fully support 128GB? I mean, if you insert a 128GB will Note 3 see it as 128GB or just 64GB? Or will it sense it as two separate 64GB partitions?
I ask because I see in the specs: "it can be expanded with a up to 64GB external memory"...

Thats because 64gb was all that was available when Note 3 was launched.... The S3 specs only say up to 32gb but I used a 64gb sd card in that as well as the Note 1....
This is the manufacturer covering their A$$ so if for some reason someone did have a problem they point to the specs sheet and say it wasn't covered...
Rest assured it does NOT partition the sd card... I have a 128gb sd card - using the sd card to micro sd card adaptor - on my Note 10.1 2014 ed with no problems... Hell, I use a 128gb sd card on my Note 10.1 1st edition...
Still running out of space though.....:laugh:
I get my adaptors from here, though I have seen cheaper these are just the right size - http://linitx.com/product/sdmicro-to-sd-card-adapter/11922
I have a 64gb flash card its the fastest class ect. and it runs PAINFULLY SLOW! it takes forever to even copy stuff onto it from USB3. its much slower then the note 2 for some reason. i had it tested and its not faulty. its just a PAIN IN ASS. so only use it if you plan to keep it on there a long time. now I just delete/copy the internal memory as its much faster then move all stuff overnight while its on charge to External

If you have a 256gb micro sd card you just plug in where the micro sd card goes, I was referencing an adaptor that has a micro sd plug and you can insert a normal size sd card. If you have a 512gb sd card this would also work...
Hello, I purchased a 200 Gb Lexar microsd.
I was so happy of its capacity, but now I have a file system issue. It made it just readable, so no way to modify it neither format it...
Since my data stand there I cannot give it back in order to get a replacement or refund...so I think no more Lexar at all...

This may sound stupid, but i will go for it and ask. Can you make ext sd + phone sd to work in RAID ?
Hi Sectoras,
no, RAID is not possible. And what RAID should it be? Mirroring, Striping, Raid 5, Raid 6?
You are thinking about a joined memory of internal and external SD card, right? This will be possible with Android 6 / Marshmallow.

No, it does not support striping. What it does support is called "Just a bunch of disks" (JBOD) but that's no RAID. JBOD is a storage volume created by joinig disks (here SD cards) of different sizes. JBOD does not improve performance, it just supplies you a single storage using all memory cards (Phone 32GB + ext. SDcard 200GB). There is also no data security (redundancy of data). Therefore RAID 0 (striping) is, technically spoken, not a RAID as well because of the missing data redundancy.
I also expect several issues with the JBOD solution of Android 6. The externa SD card is much slower than the internal memory which might have and according to some reports on the net does have adverse effects on the loading speed of apps and data. Also when the SD card breaks you will probably have to re-install the complete phone as you have no influence on where the apps and data are stored.
I saw a 256GB micro sd card. I'm assuming that will work too?
Yes, should work if the 256GB is an SDXC card.
If a phone supports SDXC cards based on the SDA 3.0 specifications (like the Sandisk 200GB card) it will support every SDXC card following that standard.
SDXC supports 64GB up to 2TB.
If some day there will be for example a 512GB or 1TB SDCX card available it should also work with the Note 4.

ur wrong.. 200gb is not the last high capacity micro sd.. their is one micro sd with 512 gb capacity.. company name is Microdia.. just google about it..
The 512GB card from Microdia doesn't exist yet. At one point they were claiming it would be out 8 months ago (and was going to cost $1000) - but again it does not exist yet (and might never be as it's been almost a year since they maid these claims). I've seen plenty of people scammed and ripped of on these cards - again - THERE IS NOTHING BIGGER THAN THE 200GB for sale at this time.
Interesting I didn't know the Note 4 could support a microSDCard of that size, I thought the largest card that can be used is a 128GB card.

Why would you anyone get a 256GB SD to see if it works? It's useless....
Why, because if it work I want to use it, for storing movie and work stuff
I don't have 256gb sdcard ,that's why I posted here and asked anyone who owned a 256gb sdcard to test it with their device
I use 200gb memory card without any problem.
I also have a 200gb, system says its a 256gb card with 61gb used by system, which makes it have about 180gb free, so exactly what I'd expect, works without problems
Thanks bro, now I can buy the 256gb sdcard without hesitation
