Tomorrow Fry's has this Micro SD card for $20. It's a no name brand, but shouldn't it still be fine?

    Never heard of em, but for $20 it's worth a shot.

       Samsung pro 64gb
     
    $34.99 and it's a best seller on amazon. I just ordered one for my cell.
    Everywhere else it's around $60 so probably be waiting until after holidays to go lower.

    The $2 more for the Samsung one would look like a good bet.  I've got one of their 16GB Class 10 MicroSD's, and consistently get 20MB/s out of it (specifications say it should be 10MB/s).  The SanDisk could be a good bet too.

    That link works. I personally want a 64GB card with a higher MB per second rating. Like 50 or 90.

    I should have bought it then. Now it's higher in price again. I just want one by Christmas, for myself. Hopefully it goes on sale again.

    Would the Samsung brand be best since I have the S5? Compatibility reasons. Just in case?

    Shouldn't matter compatability wise, however what might matter is that the SanDisk versions out perform the sammys as far as read/write speeds go. IIRC it's a wash for reliability since both are solid units.

    As for your application, you can easily go with the "slower" Extreme version SanDisk cards without missing performance, since the cards still outperform the actual hardware in the phone as far as read/write times go. ...Well, at least that's true for the Note 3 and 4. I've not looked at this for the S series phones, but I'd imagine it's equal to or less than its Note brethren.

    That said, I have the 32GB Extreme SanDisk unit, and it's more than capable of recording 4k video on my Note 4 without issue.

    Edit: I actually meant to link you to that one initially. I didn't see that the SanDisk card I linked ealier was a 30meg/sec version...

    This is the one I have and subsequently recommend (regardless of size):
