Help 64gb Micro SD Android Support - 32 GB Hard Limit?

Hi All,

I'm looking for an Android phone as a cheap, large capacity MP3 player. I currently have an iPhone 5S 32GB, but I have a pretty extensive music collection that I'd like to store on one device.

I've been looking on eBay as well as using GSMArena.com and 95% of the Android phones state that they only accept 32GB Micro SD cards. Is this a hard limit?
There's only one Android phone I've found that accepts 64GB cards - Samsung Galaxy Trend Plus S7583T
Am I going to run into problems if I try to use a 64GB card in any of the other Android devices? Can I get around the 32GB limit?

Thanks in advance!
 
If you were looking on Ebay, most of those are likely to be off-brand Chinese budget and cheapo phones, and many will be up to 32GB SD, any more and usually there's no guarantees they will work. But on the other hand many recent(made in last couple of years) HTC, LG, Samsung, Huawei, Oppo, Sony, Moto, etc. should be no problems up to 64GB or 128GB. But check the actual phone specs to be sure. Although a couple of recent Samsungs don't take SD at all, S6 and Note 5.
