Choosing the correct Micro SD?

AcidVenus · 15-12-2012, 17:40

With so many different types and sizes out there I don't want to spend money on a card that won't work.
Is there any way to know which class/size will work with my phone?
I have a Nokia Lumia 820, it says on the specs I can add up to 32GB but I know not all micro SD cards of this size will work.

Also, I saw on another forum someone mentioned they put a 64GB in their Lumia 820 and it works fine, so if I can get this storage that would be fantastic as I would be able to fit all my music on the card.

I've gone off amazon reviews on specific cards for my phone.

I've always just typed 'XXGB MicroSD memory card' and never had a problem.

I wouldn't of thought there to be problems but I read some issues about some cards not working or some freezing the phone when using content from the card.

I might give amazon a try.
