Help I want to buy new memory card for Lumia 720?

[Arpit Mittal]

I want to buy new memory card for Lumia 720. I want to buy 32GB memory card & class 10. Now I am on wp8.0 & waiting for wp8.1 official update OTA. I am from India.
So my question is Lumia 720 compatible with 32GB memory card class 10. How much will it cost in India in ₹. Which company's card is better?

I'm using sandisk 32GB Ultra class 10 and have no problem with it
I think sandisk is the best for sdcard
the price will be different but it will cost about $30 - $50

All Lumia's should be able to handle 32 GB minimum. There are reports of 128 GB cards working fine.

Class does not affect compatibility, it merely affects the top speed of the card, which does matter in certain situations, but not as much in others.
Class 2, Class 10, a good rule of thumb is you get what you pay for. Installing apps on a Class 2 card is asking for performance trouble.

I can't say which brand is better, but I'd avoid too-good-to-be-true, Chinese sketch cards.

I am currently using a class 4 memory card on my 520. I read that there was a class 6 minimum requirement, but I wanted to make sure that class 4 wouldn't work before buying a higher class memory card. The only apps I have transferred to my card are the games, and so far, all of them have been performing normally. I don't have any resource-intensive games, but ones like Minion Rush, Hexic, and Angry Birds work fine.

As far as capacity is concerned, it's your choice since all Lumia phones with microSD slots can use up to 64 GB cards (according to the specs).

I also want to buy sandisk ultra class 10 32GB around Rs. 1400 on flipkart but problem is no delivery option at my home, so that's why I asked as I have to buy from the shop.

Re: Help I want to buy new memory card fir Lumia 720?

same no delivery only delivery on snapdeal but delivery date between 7-15 business days.
so I have decided to buy direct from shop, that's better than online due to non-availability of delivery to my place.

Try on amazon

I have the 128GB card in both my 520 & 1520. No problems from either one

While installing any app on my class 10 even my phone hangs.

 

[AndyCalling]

If you want to be sure, buy a Samsung class 10 card. Lumias love Samsung SD cards. No hangs, very fast.

I have a SanDisk Ultra 64GB Class 10 microSD card. I somehow feel even with Class 10 card, games lag a bit. On the phone memory they run much more smooth. I thin WP8.1 needs to be further optimized for games installed onto the SD card.

Faced lag while playing asphalt 8

 

[Arpit Mittal]

it means that's problem with games on wp8.1, it means problem from backhand, so it will improve in future with further updates(GDR1,2) or actual release
moreover I am still on wp8.0 & waiting for wp8.1 official release OTA.
as now I have 4GB memory card but left only 1GB due to maps(1GB), Songs(1GB), Photos(.6GB)

Moreover I have another question I will wait for wp8.1 or will I buy memory card now & wait for wp8.1 OTA??

Hi I'm using grt 720 with transcend 32gb class 10 it works grt with my 720 no lagging .u can buy Kingston or a transcend or Sandisk but it should be class 10 ,because win 8.1 needs above class 6 SD cards for faster reading and writing apps and data through sd card.
