Alright chaps. Got a GoPro 3+ wifi addition a few days ago as a early Xmas present.
Now I need a good quality memory card for it. Micro sd as far as I know.
Need a good quality one with a good enough size to hold quite abit of data. What sort of sizes and companies do you use?

SanDisk Ultra 64GB MicroSDXC Class 10 @ £39
Don't buy anything else and certainly don't buy anything with a lower class.

Somewhere like a search engine.
Google, can you look into this?

Payback russ! Was also looking for a decent one! I bought one off ebay fairly cheap and the go pro kept freezing and not recording and i was having all sorts of problems and googled it and most of them mentioned a cheap card! :/

Fair play to you.
However if people didn't ask questions then It would be a pretty boring forum

Flash cards have to conform to standards (classes) and essentially, higher the class the better performance the card (suppose to) offers - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital#Speeds.
With a GoPro, where you're recording 2.7K/4K, you want something capable of handling high write speeds to prevent corruption, so at least a Class 10 but ideally get a UHS card - stick to the recommendation list (HERE, although there's plenty of users on the forums that stay away from SanDisk's for being too slow/buggy), so either a Lexar 600x/300x or a Samsung UHS.
