It really depends on what all you're gonna put on it. If you root and flash ROMs a lot, I recommend a 32GB. I have a 16 in my D3 but want to upgrade.

Ok. Thanks!! I'm basically just wanting to store pictures, videos, and music. Do you think a 16g is ok?

I think 16 Gigs should be good for you. As long you don't have movies stored on there lol.

The price of MicroSDs have gone way down. I plan on Picking up a 64GB Sandisk Ultra Class 10. Newegg has them for $60. I already have a Sandisk 32GB which I paid $80 back in January.

Be careful. It is not uncommon for a seller time send a knock off.

I personally would not go below 32 gb. I do not do movies, just music and photos and eventually found myself running out of room when I had 32 gb total. I bought a class 10 64gb card off Amazon for $30. I downloaded every album I wanted from my computer and still have 40gb to play with.
