The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 allows for external storage via microSD card to up to 128GB. However, a comment by a Galaxy Note 4 user on Amazon reveals that the handset is compatible with the SanDisk high-capacity microSD card as well.
"I have a Galaxy Note 4 and it works perfectly playing 160 GB of music so far," commented a user on Amazon.
Many consumers may not want to pay for a microSD card that has a $240 price tag attached. However, the SanDisk microSD card may still attract consumers who are looking to extend the storage limit of their devices to an additional 200GB.
