Micro SD card

muffler · 2015-07-09 14:02:25

I need to get either a 16Gb or 32Gb micro sdhc card for a 10" tablet. It will be used exclusively for downloading and storing kids games. Can anyone recommend a decent card at a reasonable price? Cheers :)

Does the tablet allow you to save apps onto a card?

Ah, you raised a good point. I have just posted a separate thread on that issue Is it a possibility that the games cant be saved to the card?

Yeah mate, I know the older samsung galaxys and sonys dont allow you to save apps on to a card. You can run apk from them alright, but they arent play store approved. Youll prob find alot of the cheaper ones will do it but will be quite liable to crashing. it would be like running a program from a memory stick on a computer. Would just be unstable.

Thanks. This is the model concerned which isnt a big brand name although its flying considering the abuse a 4 year old can give it

Ah yeah spec wise its grand for a kid... Be worth emailing them. Ask if its possible to transfer apps to a micro sd card without rooting the device.

It does come down to the app developer too but largely down to the OS. if they say yeah and it doesnt then you were missold. IF they say no, then at least you can decide what to do
