Sd micro in mp3 player I have an eclipse mp3 player. Jlab (the maker of the device) told me that max sd micro card capacity for this device is 16gb. What will happen if I try to use a larger sd micro card in this device?

Question

It is recommended to NOT use a higher storage than the listed limit, however, some devices have been known to be friendly with higher storages for some reason. In short, I'd say don't waste money to try it and then end up returning it. See if somebody you know has something above 16GB and give that a shot first.

For some devices, cards larger than the advertised maximum can be used, you can try it and see. Likely, if the device doesn't recognize it it will show no storage at all.

Probably can´t be read. But... is so cheap, that can be used in a smartphone, tablet or digital camera. You will never loose your money.

It really depends on the device firmware. At the worst, it might not detect the SD card. Nevertheless if it does detect, it will only see a 16Gb usable space in the SD card.

Best bet is to ask someone who works at Best buy.

Well if the manufacturer says device will support 16gb card- i think they would know best what works, i would say NO it wouldnt work. So next time you look for a mp3 player Just know its important to read how much storage is supported FIRST- as a rule of thumb get one that has more memory than you need cause over time your music collection will probably increase and better to have the extra space than buy a new mp3 every time.

I would stick to the specified capacity. The card might work or it might hang up the device. Some people have been able to use a high capacity card but constantly have to keep removing it and putting it back in to it can be read. No safe as it could delete your information. Not worth the hassle imo.

It will not work. And if it did you risk it crashing when trying to transfer from phone to card

Your device might not recognize the memory card. It won't "exist" and it will be unusable for your device.

It just won't recognize the memory card.
