Z1 Compact memory card specifications

[johnb4012]

I have a SONY Xperia Compact Z1 and wanted to know the spec for a 64G memory card to purchase? thanks

A decent make like Sandisk and I'd advise going for a class 10

As above,it should support up to 64GB,choose between Sandisk or Sony.

128 GB Sandisk also works.

With previous micro SD cards, I can also recommend Samsung.

Are you saying that you put an 128GB card into Z1C and the phone recognized it correctly and is able to use all the storage space available? Is it reporting the card as an 128GB card?

That is great news, actually.

Be aware that you can only store media files on SD,no applications.

I have a samsung evo 64 gb class 10, and it works fine, but some sandisk are faster but Also expensive than samsung.

[JiYong]

Yes, it just works.

Why this restriction is established by Sony under KitKat 4.4.4?

The statement this is a security feature introduces by google is definitivley wrong.

A friend show me his new HTC-Handy with KitKat 4.4.4. There is the possibility (again) to move app-data to sd card.

In the moment it makes absolutly no sense to have a sd-card with 64 GB in a Sony Z1 C.

When will Sony correct this??

I can definitely say it is a restriction from google. I do not know about when Sony will remove it or not.
