Samsung announced that its 32 GB microSD memory cards are now sampling to OEMs<\/a>, so if your handset can handle the capacity, there’s a memory card for it. The new storage units don’t hit mass production until next month though, so you still have time to save up. Samsung hasn’t offered any pricing details but with 16 GB microSD cards holding roughly a $100 MSRP –although many are retailing for around $45 to $50 on Amazon these days — I’d anticipate paying $175 to $200 soon after the products debut. Samsung was able to squeeze 32 GB into the 1 millimeter thick card partially by moving their manufacturing to a 30nm process vs the prior 40nm one.<\/p>\n

When the microSD format first arrived, I was leery of losing the cards due to the small size. But with capacities now at 32 GB, I don’t really see much need to physically remove the cards and that greatly reduces the risk of loss. Back when 1 GB was “hefty,” I expected to swap cards in and out of devices, but nowadays these small cards are so “large” that it’s not an issue.<\/p>\n
