I used a Lumia 535 for three weeks and during the course had to buy 2 32GB SD cards and only few minutes after formatting them will i be able to download apps into them before they get corrupted and any app that successfully downloaded after they get corrupted will then appear unavailable. I finally got rid of the memory cards and also went to swap my 535 for a lumia 640XL and also bought another 32GB SD card which now is also behaving the same way as the former cards i had... Please is this an issue with Windows phones and 32GB SD Cards bcos i need it for games as I have to upgrade to device with 1GB RAM so I can download lots of games.

I've had similar issues with two 32gb microSD cards from Lexar that caused random pictures to corrupt in both mine and my wife's 830. These cards were absolute garbage.

Since switching to Samsung 32gb microSD cards we have not had any corruption issues with pictures or videos that were stored on the cards.

Windows Phone does not have any inherent issues with 32 GB cards. I have used a 32 GB card with no issues in a 635, 820, 830...

I believe you may have gotten junk cards.

Thanks all, maybe I should get a 32GB SD Card from Samsung since microsoft doesn't make 'em.... And it kinda feels like I've been buying junk cards .
