I have a Samsung EVO Select 256GB Micro-SD in my phone. Whilst the app is not designed to update this I included it instead and found that in the intended app this would clearly be a very minor issue but the product clearly works by itself etc. Now to the problem. I've bought one of Samsung's latest and greatest tablets, the Galaxy S4 tab and the jury's out because I need a keyboard and due to demand they're not ordering etc. So nothing to say on that just yet. However, Samsung clarifies that the BIGGEST micro SD for a tablet is 400GB AND the largest working size is the 256GB I have in my phone. Turns out Samsung got it wrong though, and as we said, it's 400GB. actually works there. A point for Sandisk! But Samsung has 512GB and insists it WILL NOT WORK in a tablet, admitting my choice was: 1) Use the 256GB I have [or equivalent] 2) Buy from a competitor to to get up to 400 GB which I did. But here's the problem. The mount in the tablet is no more sophisticated than in the phone, and when I insert the Samsung SD it has the same "fits like a glove" effect. I can't get enough results from Sandisk, at least not at first. It's all about how well the micro SD's plastic edge is cut, and after about 20 agonizing minutes I managed to find the right angle for it to click, but it was an unnecessarily frustrating struggle. Mechanically, this is a known problem. two different products claiming to be within a certain size tolerance. If they just tend to shrink, fine. But what if they are in each other's "space"? This is when the biggest problem of full tolerance accumulation arises. This is one of them. Repeated use will certainly sharpen both the tablet holder and the sandisk a bit. It's unclear what if two, but NOR does a Samsung fit a tablet holder like a glove, so by that metric it seems the Sandisk is worn enough to be useful. I didn't want to use an emery board. as there is likely to be an issue, maybe a few thousandths of an inch, but please check your own manufacturing specs for dimensional tolerance. Obviously this is not enough for all situations. For the record, I'm an engineer so I'm all too familiar with this from other past situations, but in this case I expected to be an end user, not a beta tester. The average user would return the product and complain that they bought a smaller device from Samsung, but they wouldn't have any issues with installation etc. The bottom line of all micro SD manufacturers: you have to live by the word that comes from created by the makers of the products. If you use your products, expect them to screw up, and then fix it on your end, EVEN THOUGH it's "their problem". This attitude MAKES it your problem! Anyone who wants to compete with Samsung has to work in Samsung products, which refers to SD and so on. By the way, because it's so tight, I have to take the SIM card out from the back, and then I can slide it off the back. The back is now accessible and if I apply enough pressure the SD flies! I did all this on a towel so it doesn't go to unfamiliar parts of the room so the problem persists etc.
