I have a class 2 Sandisk card running A2SD2 and using 720p with no problems or lag on either.

AS far as I know the class 4 by kingston is the highest class 32gb micro that is currently available.

I agree with chaz. I purchased a cheap 32GB from Hong Kong via eBay and it was garbage! As always, caveat emptor.

Just bought 200 of them

Yea the 32gb card for under 40 bucks is a scam no doubt........or a once in a lifetime deal...Verizon has the 32 gb card for 49.99 for 2 hours and they got swamped with orders.

be carefull guys........there are lots of fake sandisk cards going around.. I personally have the 32GB Class 2 from Sandisk that i bought from Verizon and have no issues with it. My buddy bought a 16GB from bestbuy and it was only a 4GB.

Stay away! These cards are usually a much smaller 4 or 8GB card which has 32GB printed on it. The beautiful part is they are designed to appear to your OS as a real 32GB card, so everything will be all rainbows and lollipops at first... That is, until you start filling it and eventually end up going over the actual capacity of the card. What happens after that? Well let's just say it's not pretty.
Your data is not worth the risk.

Can anyone find a review or actual read/write rates on this card. I've searched Google but saw no reviews.

google.com/shopping
before anyone jumps to this there are 3C Pro class 4 cards on google, amazon has them for a hair more but less that 100$ and reviews are saying the transfer speeds are close to class 6. with a average of around 5.44.
also there is a brand called, TOPRAM that sells class 4 32gb as well as kingston.
im ordering 2 of the 3c pro's. they seem to have the highest performance ive seen in 32gb storage

Careful folks. Just read in another forum where a guy was advertising super cheap 32 Gig sd cards on eBay only to have his ad pulled down as being a fraud.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

I bought 1 card from ebay and it was faked. After that I paid the higher dollar and got a guaranteed card. I have the sandisk card and and TBH the transfer speeds are about the same as they are on my class 4 16gb card.

I'm running the 32gb Sandisk class 2 purchased from Amazon for $75. Read speeds seem to be several mb/s faster than the stock 8gb card. I think it's a good value at this price.

I've been running this for a month or so, and it's fantastic. It's just what it says -- I ran some speed tests when I first got it, and it came up with something around 4.5 MB/sec write speed (didn't copy it down...should have). So basically it's a class 4 as promised. I picked it up when it first came out at newegg for $87.

I found that Wintec 16 GB C10 on Newegg for $29.50 which many people seem to say decent things about but I've never heard of Wintec so I'm not exactly too sure about buying one of those.

There are several threads on here for Micro SDHC cards. There is a 32GB Micro SDHC Class 10 card by Lexar. It's $108 on Amazon, but someone found a link to a different store out there for $88. Check this thread.

I just ordered this last night:

Good call, I'm waiting on a replacement for my 16GB Wintec right now, it died on me after about a month.

Well, crap... My 32GB Wintec is in the mail right now. I hope it lasts longer than yours did.

So far, my Wintec 16GB has been working as advertised. As of right now, I would suggest it to anyone looking to upgrade their SD card.

I had to return 2 Wintec's b/c of poor performance. I Then tested a cheap Kingston and Sandisk (whch were both faster then the Wintec at most file sizes) but not where I wanted it to be. I have a a couple of high end cards for my dSLR but I didn't want to spend that much for my phone. I finally settled on Patriot LX for price performance.

If you have a Micro Center in your area you can pick up a "Micro Center Branded" MicroSD card there for dirt cheap.
I bought 2 8GB class 2 for $13.99 each and a 16GB Class 2 for $27.99
Heres the kicker. The supplier they get them from marks them as class 2 but they are Class 6.
All three cards have a write rate or 6+ MB/sec and a 13 MB/sec read. Tested on a 2 different windows machines and the SD Speed test app from the market.

Sandisk MicroSDHC 16gb Class 4 or 6 Recommendations?

I have the stock MicroSDHC card in my Evo at the moment.
I am looking to purchase a Sandisk microSDHC 16gb class 4 or 6 card.
Class 4 would most likely be fast enough for me.
I have been searching around but have heard alot about counterfeits, etc.
Looking to purchase in a blister card as this appears to be the best way to be assured you are purchasing a legit card.
Any recommendations are appreciated.
Kingston is an option as I have also read good things about it.
Again, Legitimacy is a top priority.

This is just my opinion but I only use a-data micro sdcards. The 2 class six cards I got for me and the wife have served me with apps2sd and since before I even had my g1. They are very reasonably priced on newegg.
I just find sandisk cards to be over priced imo. But to be sure you only get quality cards I would buy from either tigerdirect or newegg.

This one is well hidden in the depths of newegg; I bought and sounds like a great deal to me.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820220546

I'll research the a-data cards.
Are they better quality than the transcend cards?

I'm using a 32GB Class 10 from Wintec and it works great. Only ~$85 on NewEgg. With their free shipping, I ordered it Friday morning and got it Monday afternoon.

Wintec Class 10 16GB SDHC for around $27 from Tiger Direct... I can't imagine why you'd go 4 or 6...

Heard something about smart phones can't utilize the speeds that class 10 offers, or something to that effect. So it wasnt worth the extra money that a class 10 would cost.
But at the price you mentioned, the cost is a non factor. Just don't know the quality of Wintec vs. the rest.

I've got several WinTec cards - even have WinTec PC10666 (1333) memory in my desktop - always been happy with the quality.
As far as speed - I'm VERY new to the EVO so I can't speak to whether or not the phone can utilize the extra speed.. But as you mentioned - at that price, who cares... And I will say this - putting large amounts of stuff onto this card vs my older class 4's and 6's via computer is *way* faster.

You can utilize the speed by changing one value in your system files

And what would that value be

128 instead of 4, buy the wintec 16gb for 27 dollars, best cost for performance and size. There's a thread in the development section about it

Is class 6 enough? or should I go with the 10 class?

It is up to you a class 6 will work but class 10 will be faster.
If the difference in price isn't so much go for the class 10...

Can anyone recommend the cheapest place to buy this from in the UK?
Thanks

The Class system is completely flawed.
1. Sandisk usually underrates their card to avoid false advertisements. Many times have I seen them outperform Kingston cards in benchmarks that were rated at a "higher class."
2. Even if you had a class 12, it doesn't mean the components and hardware on your computer and specially the phone takes advantage of such high class speeds.
3. Other than that, this card us a "Ultra" class 6 putting it on a different rating system than the normal classes.

I need a good 16gb micro sd?

I'm looking for a good quality or at least good performing 16sd card. I'm trying to find a good value, and I've found some class 10's on ebay for like $13, but I know there are variables such as what format they are, but I'm not too hip on what's best? I have a class 4 SanDisk 8gb, and it's time for something faster with more space for all of my backups. If someone maybe has an ebay or amazon link to something they've bought & have been pleased with that would be great! Thanks in advance.

You can grab a 32 gb from Wal-Mart for a little under $30. Why not go that route? I have 2 of them but use a 64 gb atm.

Class 6 and reliable when I got mine.

I just ordered a UHS-1 30mb/s read speed, sandisk 32Gb micro sd card for 28 euro, for performance i would go with a class 10 or UHS-1 which operates as class 10s maximum speeds
Ideal for HD recording etc.
On a side note, any memory cards purchased off ebay should be tested for their true capacity, use a german software called H2testw, its gold standard for testing memory read/write speeds. And total capacity
One can not determine if the seller is 100% genuine or not unless its a credible company
It is possible to have a memory card stating its 32GB size for example, but in reality this card could really be only 8GB in size, a tiny program could be installed on a hidden partition and as you save more files to your card, once the 8GB limit has reached it overwrites your oldest files with the newly saved files to keep space, operating systems are fooled into thinking the particular card has a full capacity of 32GB which is not actually true

Grabbed my PNY 32 gig at best buy its a class 10 and has pretty good benches online for $40 right now. It isn't as good as a deal as ebay or amazon but with all the insane amount of counterfeit cards I really felt the still over priced on sale micro sd was a better option.

The worlds fastest micro sdhc is the sandisk extreme pro at 95mb/s, the largest size is 16GB at present, but the speed is useless in a phone, as no phone supports UHS 1 specification.
if it's to be used in a phone then the samsung 16GB class 10 is the fastest at write 21mb/s and read 24mb/s, largest size is 16GB.

Thanks Man! I never heard of sdhc before? Until Android supports it then it won't do much good for me, because I only use sd cards these days for transferring files from between phones, media storage, etc. I generally use usb drives for all my other portable storage needs, but I'll definitely be keeping my eye on sdhc for any advancements in compatibility.

My new sandisk class 10, is well over twice as fast as those old class 4 cards I was constantly shuffling around! This is great for transferring large rom files & movies to external memory.

Better go for SanDisk sdhc class6:thumbup::thumbup:

I meant sdhc sandisk extreme pro, and in the midst of screaming children I didn't finish what I was typing. Though I did not know that 64gb or larger is called sdxc? Is that why it seems they have to be formated differently out of the box or ppl tend to have issues when using them with Android?
