One of the continuing strengths of the Galaxy S series, and continued with the Galaxy S5, is its removable back cover. This allows the battery to be replaced, and also allows for additional storage to be added. In this article, we’ll recommend three of the best Galaxy S5 MicroSD cards for a range of budgets.

3. Low-end option: 16GB Samsung Class 10 MicroSD

We begin with the lowest-end option, a 16 GB microSD card. This particular model is made by Samsung, and has a Class 10 rating. This is among the fastest available, and should ensure that copying media and running apps from the microSD card remains rapid.

 2. Mid-range option: 32GB Samsung Class 6 MicroSD

This next Samsung microSD is a bit slower, rated only at Class 6, but is double the capacity at 32GB. That makes the card better for media storage, and a little less suited for running apps. The big draw of this card is that increased storage space, at only a small premium above the 16 GB model we looked at earlier.

1. High-end option: 64 GB Samsung Class 10 UHS-1 MicroSDXC

Our final microSD card today is this 64 GB otion from Samsung. It is rated at Class 10 and UHS-1, meaning better transfer speeds than you’d expect from a Class 10 rating alone. The card also has double the capacity of the previous card, allowing a significant amount of songs, books, pictures, videos and apps to be stored here. While 128 GB cards do exist, right now they’re a bit too expensive to be a worthwhile investment.

Conclusion

I hope you found these three recommendations helpful. If you have any questiosn about microSD cards let me know, and I look forward to seeing you on the blog later!
