128Gb Sd card for s5 (SanDisk)

keithwill838 — Wed, 23 Jul 2014 20:34:38 GMT

I purchased one of these from Amazon(not an individual but Amazon) so hoping it would be ok,i formatted it in my phone then used an adaptor to transfer my music and photo,s,but the Sd card would only work for so long and kept either disconnecting from my computer or asking to be formatted again,the said card was Black in colour and seeing as all my other Sd cards have been red i was wondering if the card itself was snide(it is a SanDisk card),i thought buying it from the Amazon store instead of a shop selling them it would not be snide,maybe i just got a dud one,anyway has anybody else had trouble using the 128gb card in a S5

It has been known to get fakes from amazon.

Have you looked up the item on sandisk website to compare.

The s5 should have no trouble using that capacity of micro sd card.

Try it in another phone.

If no joy ask for a replacement.

It could be a fake although to be honest I've never rated Sandisk much

formatting it may of been the problem and not the card, i have had issues when formating a card.. sometimes they go a bit rouge!

To answer the question they are actually available in Black in colour.

I've mainly used that make too with no issues.

Try in another device and if it still plays up ask for it to be swapped out is my advice.

Most probably the best avenue to take.

Although the s5 is capable of taking the 128 capacity.

Although the Sandisk should work fine I must say I think I would be inclined to get a samsung one if you can afford it

Is the format compatible with your computer and OS ?
