Hi - about to order A119 V2 with GPS from Amazon. From what I've seen along the way, either one of these is good, and the A119 does handle 64GB. I notice the Lexar has "lifetime warranty." From your experience, would I be OK with either of these? Many thanks.... DT

Card: Transcend High Endurance - 32 ($30) or 64GB ($56) Micro SD / XC and package deal for camera/disk/filter

Lexar Alternative - $18 for 32GB ($28 64 GB) - Lifetime Warranty:

my experience with the Lexar 633x 64bg was not good, format warning and missing videos was a problem, on the other hand with the Lexar 633x 32bg never had any issues hope this helps.
 
I had to return one Lexar 633x 64gb as it Died after a week. A second Died a few months later and was replaced By Lexar–Although it took about Three and a half weeks to get it and it looks like I got a refurbished one. So far that one has been working but it makes me nervous, I decided to purchase only the transcend high endurance models from now on even though they're expensive. I've been using half a dozen of those (64 GB) for almost a year now without problem.
 
Lexar is leaving the removable memory business so I suspect their warranty will become meaningless soon :( And there have been several reports of problems with their recent production 633x 64GB cards so perhaps another card would be a better choice ;)

today my Lexar 633x 200gb died, worked for 5 weeks :eek: after a previous replacement by Lexar. this time I counted the corrupted files - on #6 the card went into a "write protected" mode. :eek: and this is about 7th or 8th time Lexar 633x cards die on A119, most of them 128gb, and 3 times 200gb. and every time I send a card to Lexar for a (possible) replacement - I pay for delivery, then I wait for about 3 weeks, during which I use my spares - Transcend Ultimum 64gb (never had a single problem with them).
save your money and nerves and make a good choice by choosing the right memory card for your dash camera. :)
 
I second on the Samsung EVO Select. #OCDtronic has moved them as well. I am using a Samsung Pro 64GB but I had it on hand, and no issues.
 
I purchased the 128gb EVO+ U3 with my Viofo and although I've only had it for several weeks, it seems to be working well up to this point.
