Four Great microSD Cards for the Moto Z2 Force Edition

The Moto Z2 Force is a formidable flagship that ships with 64GB of internal storage. While there isn't a Moto Mod for expanding the phone's storage (yet?), you do have the option of using a microSD card.

The Moto Z2 Force is essentially future-proof there, capable of handling up to 2TB of extra storage. Of course, cards of that size are not yet commercially available, though there is no shortage of scammers trying to sell fake microSD cards.

That's why you're best to stick with reputable microSD card brands sold via Amazon. We've rounded up the best options below.

Samsung's EVO+ microSD cards are some of the best quality cards on the market.

You can add 128GB to your Moto Z2 Force for only $50, perfect if you want to take your entire MP3 collection along with you and also have room to back up your photos and videos.
