UNDERSTAND THAT THERE ARE THINGS YOU CAN’T CHANGE

The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 comes three types of memory namely the RAM, internal flash, and finally memory card slot. The RAM is the storehouse for your apps when they are running; with the internal flash memory storage, you store your files, apps and data; with the memory card slot, you simply put in your MicroSD card. Galaxy note 4 comes with 3MB RAM, 32GB internal memory and a space for micro SD. The RAM can’t be increased or decreased, so also the internal flash memory. The only memory you can work on is the external memory as you can chose which to insert in the card slot.

COST OF INCREASING THE INTERNAL MEMORY OF SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 4

Galaxy Note 4 has the capacity to maintain microSD card that is up to 128 GB of storage space. You can get a SanDisk Ultra with 128 GB for $79.99 and a Samsung EVO with 128 GB for $72.99. You should be smart in selecting the microSD card as there are fakes in the market. If you are on low budget, then go for 64 GB of space is currently $22.99. You will be saving $27 if you buy two 64GB compared to the cost of a single 128 GB card. So it’s up to you, and depends on what you intend to store and your budget plan.

THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT MICRO SD CARD

Always have it at the back of your mind that memory cards are not created equal, they are different in shapes and sizes, speeds, and conform to different standards. To know the difference, here are things you need to understand:

• microSD is a tiny memory card that is strategically designed for mobile devices. The ‘SD’ stands for Secure Digital. miniSD is another small standard, but it’s bigger than microSD and won’t fit in your Note .
• MicroSD adapter is needed if you want to fix your memory card into another device such as a laptop.
• In terms of capacity, there are different types of SD cards which are SDSC, SDHC and SDXC. The SD always stands for Secure Digital, and the last two letters stands for Standard Capacity, High Capacity and Extended Capacity respectively. The SDXC cards have the most storage. A new standard Ultra High Speed (UHS) is available but isn’t supported by Samsung galaxy Note 4.
• Another factor to look into is speed. How do you know the speed of a MicroSD card? Well, this can be determined by a class rating. To elaborate, a class 2 SD card writes data up to 2 MB/s while a Class 10 is five times faster at 10 MB/s. speed matters, because 2MB/s is only just fast enough for standard definition video recording. But you’ll need at least a   Class 6 If you want to shoot full HD and a class 10 if you want to take stills while shooting full HD.

HOW TO DETECT FAKE SD CARD

Sadly to say, everything produced in the market has a fake, including memory cards. One funny part about fake memory cards is that they can’t be differentiated easily by their looks because some that looks nice might not read at all on your device. You might also be sold a low capacity SD card as a high capacity one, also, if you are not lucky, slower cards will be sold as high speed ones. Most people are scammed into buying fake ones because they judge them by their looks alone. One of the surest ways to avoid scammers is to buy from reputable sellers and read their reviews.

That’s it for now. If you have ever bought a fake memory card or one that is too slow for your Samsung Galaxy Note 4, let us know by using the comment box.
