What kind of memory card is included in the box?
Size?
class?
My Orange handset was delivered with 4gb pre-installed into the memory slot. MicroSD. Not sure of the class.

class 2 most probably
My T-mobile one was supplied with a SanDisk 4GB Class2.
My Vodafone Desire also came with a 4GB SanDisk Class 2. Promptly upgraded it to an 8GB SanDisk Class 4 - and increased the already impressive speed of the phone.
Same with my Orange branded one.
got mine today from orange and it came with 4gb

Wouldnt worry too much I had a 4gb Class 2 in my G2 and replaced with a 8gb Class 6 , didnt see any difference in speed.
If anyone's interested in one, in a week or so's time I should be able to offer a small number (~5/6) 16GB Class 6 cards at around £45-£50 ea.
I'm not sticking this in the Marketplace section yet as I haven't got them to sell yet.

Has anyone found a 16Gb MicroSD card which is compatible with the TP2?
aren't all the micro sdhc cards compatible with TP2? i'm planning on ordering a 16gb card when delivery date approaches for my decive. altho i think the class2 might be too slow for tomtom7 in the long run.
I'm for sure it can. At home the touch pro 2 is packed up with a (real) free 16 micro sdhc card.
I have a 16 GB card installed and can confirm it works. (Dane Elec one)
Also using one i bought from best buy no issues at all
Using 16GB Kingston card and working perfectly on my TP2. No difference in speed of reading in comparison with previous Touch HD with 8GB card.

I've tried a 16gb Sandisk. Speed category 4. Works without a hitch.

How about 32GB SDHC. Anybody tried yet?
Or Class 10 16GB SDHC?
maybe i missed something, but what brand made a 32gb micro sdhc already?
Yeah same here, I have never seen a 32GB microSD..?
I'm using a Class 2 16GB microSDHC. Works great for me. Got it free with the phone
Ah, ok. There isn't 32GB microSDHC yet on the market. Just plain SDHC.
i'll be ordering me a 16gb card soon (before the phone arrives atleast), but i can't quite make up if a class2 card will be too slow for tomtom running smoothly.
I installed an A-Data 16GB, Class 6 storage card in my Touch Pro2.
Works fine.
Faster than the Class 2 SanDisk it replaced.
Access to storage card is faster.
Programs installed on storage card respond faster.
In my opinion, the overall performance of the Class 6 cards is
faster than the Class 2 cards.
i have question which card is better to keep for evo 4g.
samsung 8gb sdhc class 2 or Adata 8gb hc class 6?
thx
adata makes excellent quality memory modules of all types, it will obliterate the samsung class 2 in every possible way
ok cool thanks
Not only is Adata a reliable brand but if you look at the class, it's faster too. That's assuming you meant sdhc, not "hc". Make sure you read correctly. "hc" is not a type of card. Don't get scammed.
oh ok yes sdhc is that Adata card,
cuz i just bought new htc evo 4g and they give u 8gb samasung card so i was wondering which card is better,,
thank you
Is there a difference between the Samsung memory card that ships and a class 2 micro Sandisk 8 gb hc?

Yes there is, I've benchmarked both (2x 8GB Samsung from HTC, 1x 8GB Sandisk from HTC, 2x 8GB Sandisk not from HTC). They are both crap in terms of write speed (HTC bought the cheapest batch from both companies, the 8GB cards that you buy from retailers can reach 10-14mb/s write speed. Apparently certain batches of Sandisk 8GB class 2 have crazy write speeds), but Sandisk reads much much faster.
ok guys im about to order me a memory card. Do you guys think the 64gb is overkill? Second Question..is there a big differencein the class 6 and class 10 cards?

For day to day use, you will see no difference on Class 6 or 10 ... if you plan to copy/move large files or music files on a regular basis, then maybe a little ... Will definitely not affect any performance like Camera app, etc.
And I still prefer 32GB Class 10 for now.
64gb C10

there's no such thing as too large of a mem card,
if u have the money then go for the 64gb C10
Does the Note come with a card already installed? I just ordered this morning but have 32Gb SanDisk. I was going to get 64Gb SanDisk and leave 32Gb in my Motorola Photon. If Note comes with card already installed, if lesser I will put that in Photon and sell it

hi,
no,i got my note 2 out of box with no sd card.Had to use my own.
good luck
Class 6 and Class 10 write speed in Note 2 won't be a big difference.
I found Note 2's external memory controller write speed capped at around 10-11MB/s
But for read speed, it will be a BIG difference.
I am using Samsung 64GB UHS-I Pro micro SD.
Having like 55MB+/sec read speed.
with my old Lexar 32GB Class 10 only got 13MB/s read speed.
So, if you concern of read speed, get fastest card you can afford.
if your main concern is write speed, get a class 6 or class 10 would be fine.
And don't get SanDisk ultra. it's known to have problem with Note 2.

I bought mine in Hong Kong for USD 95.
It's expensive yeah but it's the fastest 64GB micro SD you can buy.
It's good for you that you don't have problem with SanDisk Ultra but you can search for Note 2 + SanDisk Ultra.
It has a known problem, after awhile of use or the disk capacity reached certain amount.
Sometimes it will unmount the card or even damage the files in the card.
You can only re format the disk to solve the problem.
MANY people reported this problem. I don't know maybe trigger rate is not 100% but still not recommended.
Darkinners, thanks for your responds and suggestions (which I took and did a search, then some research!)
1. All of these complaints on SanDisk were about the 32Gb Card, not the 64Gb card. All the 64Gb comments were good.
2. The people with issues (both 64Gb and 32Gb) had formatted the card at exFAT, not SDXC. Mathamatically, I can pretty much figure out a.) why it will not write files over 4Gb and b.) why the 64Gb exFAT crashes after it fills over 16Gb! (Think about it, SIII is desinged to read/store 32Gb, not 64Gb even though it will format exFAT. And as for the kid whos computer would not read the 64Gb exFAT, i bet he has 32-bit machine?
3. All complaints were from Europe and blamed on a bad batch of cards (it happens). The one happy individual I saw got his card from Amazon, which is a ligit website. Just because the card says SanDisk, does not mean it actually SanDisk. Cheap forgien vendors use this lable to make them look legit?
4. The card you mentioned and the SanDisk are priced about the same, $59.99USD. I will get SanDisk and format either in phone or my laptop as SDXC and play for awhile. If it piss me off, I will return it!
Again, thanks for your input and suggestions!
I am in the midst of buying one and was curious which ones you guys are using, and confirmed are working on our Note, thanks.:good:

Samsung 64GB Class 10 Micro SD SDXC UHS-1 Grade 1 Pro Memory Card 70MB/s.
Expensive but worth every single cent.
The 64GB UHS-1 from Samsung is the best memory card I have every had.
Greetings from Germany
I purchased a Sandisk Ultra Class 10 on Amazon. It works great - no problems at all.
(seems I'm a "can't post links yet" noob still) The item number is B007WTAJTO
I would recommend purchasing from a reputable vendor, as in "Ships from and sold by Amazon.com". I had a Amazon seller send me a Class 2 unbranded card with a SD reader when I ordered a Class 4 Sandisk card with microSD reader. Very annoying and I suspect intentional.
Ernthelfer, have you done any speed testing on your Samsung card?
Thanks for the suggestions fellas appreciate that. :good:
I also have the Sandisk 64GB. I'm wondering HOW to test the speed and for bad blocks using my unrooted GN 10.1.(Can't use my PC for testing.)

Thanks. I tried this already. It didn't work; I can't remember the reason. Also tried the SD Tools app with no luck.
Has anyone with an unrooted GN 10.1 had any luck with these apps? Thanks.

for some reason you can't buy this micro sd card in the uk that is why i will have to buy a sandisk 64gb instead which is not ideal but it's the best i am gonna get, i can get a samsung 32gb class 6 though i might go for that as i like samsung micro sd cards.

What's wrong with Sandisk? I use a Sandisk Ultra 32 GB class 10.. Works great?

You will soon find out after you fill the card around 18 gb... the card keeps dismounting and remounting. .."sd card damaged" messages and then ultimately the card dies. ..
Happens on s3 and note 2.
So if you have 32gb SanDisk ultra sdhc cards... don't fill it beyond 16gb...
Unfortunately it is true

If this is true, then I am in for a surprise as I have filled around 15GB
In France Amazon stopped selling sandisk cards, they're investigating as many users report the death of the card after 3-4 month of use.
It may just be some defect cards behind other good ones, but if I were you I'd by a Samsung.
I bought a sandisk 64 Go SDXC a month ago, it's working fine for now but there's one thing I'm sure : I won't put important files on it without a backup somewhere else ...
I have a SanDisk 64 c10 with 22 gig of mp3's, 15 gig of movies and a few hundred photos and it's been working fine for months.
I am using Samsung 64GB Pro UHS-I on my N7105
The read speed is excellent
But the write speed won't be much difference than other Class 10 or Sandisk UHS-I
The write speed is a little bit faster than my old Lexar Class 10 32GB
Write:
Samsung 9.7MB/s VS Lexar 6-7MB/s
The read speed is A LOT faster.
Read:
samsung 64GB 58MB/s VS Lexar 10MB/s
This test , my Samsung 64GB is at 70% capacity used(mainly MP3s and apple lossless files)
It would be even faster if the used capacity is lower.
So the verdict is, if you really NEED this fast, like faster media scanning.
Then pay a little more get the fastest card available.
If you don't, any Class 10 cards would be fine.

Eh, take the bad reviews with a large grain of salt. I have just under 30 gigs used of my 64 gig Sandisk card and it's working just fine.
I say buy whatever is priced right for you. If it fails, send it back.
Not very hard at all.

Yeah I am using this one, It's really fast! and no problems so far.
a little bit pricier though.
I bought mine in Hong Kong for USD 76
While Sandisk 64GB UHS-I is around USD53 in here.
i have 32 gb scan disk .kingmax 4 class. no problem at all almost 6 months
Note 2 is not released 6 months back. ..how come you are using the card for 6 months on note 2?
Remember I am not saying San disk has bad cards. .. the Combo of s3 or note 2 with ultra sdhc 32gb SanDisk cards alone have this problem
