32gb Class 10 Micro SD - Galaxy S II Accessories

Hi,
Had my SGSII for a few weeks now and I've filled my internal SD memory. Was hoping you guys could help me.
I'm in need of a 32gb class 10 micro SD card for all my HD content. Do any of you flash-a-holic's know of anywhere I can purchase one from? I'm sure I'm not the only one wanting upgrade the memory!!!
Cheers
Please click thanks if you found the thread helpful

I have such one from Amazon. It' s from a company I never heard of but works in my SGS II since I unpacked it perfectly and stable. Has lifelong guarantee.
Video rec to sd is nice and smooth and fast, divx videos stored on this class 10 msd play perfect.
Just search in Amazon.....

I personally use Lexar High Speed MicroSDHC 32 GB Class 10 and it works well for me thus far (with full hd content as well)... it also comes with a usb card reader but it's kinda pricey (cost me $95)

I'm just not sure if cheep is always the best. Thanks for you're reply

I'm a believer in you only get what you pay for so lexar sounds good. In uk Sterling pounds its about £ 60-70. Did you buy it online?

I picked up a Kingston 32gb class 10 from Newegg.

Lexar Class 10 32Gb FTW. Got one and its brilliant.

Don't think a class 10 is as fast as you think it should be, I have a samsung 8gb class 6 that will probably out perform most class 10 cards. Why pay the extra

Is a class 6/8 more compatible with SGSII????

I have a Sandisk 32gb class 4. It stores 5 MB/s. I have a somewhat unknown 16gb class 6 and it is 15-16 MB/s! So buying cards can be very difficult and rather surprising.

This thread is confusing me all the more. So basically its pot luck! From one SD card to the next speeds can be completely different even same class, same brand ! I guess similar to processors!

I have a Kingston Class 10, 16gb but I could not get this app to test it in the Galaxy S2. It seems that you can only speed test the internal 16gb memory. Thats why you get the High speeds...

I just checked the app, if you do not mount the sd card it tests /mnt/sdcard (the internal memory) but if you do mount the sd card it does test /mnt/sdcard/external_sd. For me the app works.

I think testing on a pc with a card reader is the only way to get comparable results. I don't trust the phones doing a proper job on this. My numbers above are done using H2testw 1.4.

My 32GB class 4 is 9MB/s Write and 14MB/s Read.
I'm quite happy with that.

Here is the result of my Sandisk 32 GB Class 2

What is this program?

Btw using SD Tools (the app people in previous posts used to test speeds) I get 10.8 MB/s writing and 21.7 MB/s reading.. so it's pretty good..

Upgrade SD card

Looking for suggestions. first of all, has anybody filled up the packaged 8gb memory on your phone? and if you've upgraded your SD card, please let me know what kind and how much, I saw a 16gb mircroSDHC from newegg but the reviews were not so great:
*well apparently I cannot post outside links
but here is the item number from newegg.com N82E16820139121
I upgraded to a Winston 16GB Class 10, I got about 4GB's left due to music and movies
Upgraded to a WinTec 16GB class 6 on the first day! It worked awsome!
using the 16gb sandisk that came with my HD2...works fine, (didn't work for crap in the HD2 though). I do not keep a lot of music on it anymore now that I use Slacker almost exclusively...but I do have a couple movies on there at the moment.
I am using the 8GB that came with my MT4G in my HD2 to run Android (works fine as well)
I'm sure you shouldn't have a problem with anything up to a 32gb...just buy from a respectable seller, I have heard a lot of horror stories about cards off ebay
cool, thanks fellas, looks like I'll just go with a 16gb gonna go for a class 10 one.

i'd recommend class 6 since the hardware can barely read as fast as a class 10 card.
but if you wanna spend the extra bucks on wasted speed, go ahead =P
I took the 16gb class 6 sd that came in my Fender mytouch and popped it in. Ive got about about 4.8gb left with music, movies and roms on it. Since there arent any roms that use ext or swap yet, theres really no way to tell how well it functions other then the music and the movies play fine lol

I bought a 32gb memory card class 4 from Adorama for 99.99 with free shipping. Got it and made sure I ran a speed tester on it and it passed. No complaints... however took forever to arrive lol I'm a music junkie and I was about dead by the time I got it because by then I had already sold the one preinstalled.

Just kinda agreeing with agentaaron, my 16gig that came with my hd2 didnt work so well with the hd2 but it loves the mytouch..cant figure it out as I thought it as a defective card...but works just fine.
ok, so I got a 16gb card class 10 for 30 bucks from the egg, can I just copy/paste everything over from my stock card onto the new one and my phone should work just fine but with the extra storage space correct?
yup, thats what I did, no issues so far

1) Copy your whole card to your HDD
2) Download Astro from Market
3) Open Astro, hit Menu, Tools, SD Card Usage
4) Find out what is taking up all the room
5) Use your noggin to delete what YOU think you don't need
6) Remember that you made a backup
Back OT:
I've narrowed down my choices for my new 16GB card to the Wintec Class 10 on Newegg for ~30 or the Komputerbay Class 6 for ~40. Only the reviews so far are making it a tough decision. Will you guys with either card please revisit this thread next week and post your findings after repeated use?
Posting Findings
Got my 16GB Wintec Class 10 in the mail on Friday.
Tested with CrystalDiskMark 64-bit using the prepackaged SD adapter in my laptops SD slot 3 times each.
Sequential Reads 13MB/s+
Sequential Writes 11-12MB/s
I'm impressed. I will continue to use and report back findings.
Going to get my wife one for her MT4G and another one for the Nook Color (X-mas gift) I will be getting.
EDIT:
Tested the stock SanDisk 8GB Class 4 that came with the phone:
Sequential Read : 11 MB/s
Sequential Write: 5.3 MB/s
slightly above the Class 4 rating. Going to keep this card as my 'Movies' card for long trips and such.
Tested my Transcend 8GB Class 6 from my G1:
Sequential Read : 12.5 MB/s
Sequential Write: 6.0 MB/s
Just meeting Class 6 requirements. Will put my daughter's movies on it.

I think I will take door #3 as it is a one day sale(today). Even though less known than newegg or amazon, 1daysale.com has been around for awhile. A sandisk for $35 shipped...I'll bite.
After all, my Droid Charge has a sandisk class 4 and works great.

think there are better deals out there try to google it instead of going to ebay and amazon first. think i found some 10 sandisk for 60 32gb
I picked up the 1daydeal one also. Good price as long as its legit.

You have to be careful of fake cards. I haven't bought from 1daydeal myself but many people over at slickdeals say they are fine...only complaint is a little slow to ship.
I've read that some class 10 cards not well supported with other recent Android phones...not sure about the ET4G though.
The biggest thing I've seen class of a card affect is video, that is when the video device is recording to the SD card. I don't have a card in my ET4G atm but to those who do, are videos you take written to the card or to the internal memory?
i just ditched my 32gb class 2 and ordered a 32gb class 10 to see if it helps w/ the 'wake' delay. right now w/ no sd card, there is no delay..w/ the class 2 card, there was about a 2 second delay after pressing the power button.
Does class 10 VS. class 6 make a difference with regards to our phones?
Sent from my ep4gt using XDA Premium
For live recording video or pics, use camera memory for fastest speed...then move to card for storage.
Intuitively, I'd think for these phones - who cares?
My last phone - different story!
I had a MyTouch 3G that was rooted and running CyanogenMod 6, with Apps2SD because the phone had almost no onboard storage. In THAT case, since my apps were being installed to the SD card, the speed (class) of the SD card was directly proportional to the responsiveness of the phone.
And even with a class 6 card in my phone, you'd never want to install an app to the card that had a widget you were using.
With this phone however, I doubt I'll run out of local app storage space (or, it'll be a sign I should be doing some clean up work), so I'd just be using the SD card for storing pics and music.
I'd check NewEgg for cards, they have good prices, better than Ebay and Amazon.
May be the last time that occurs. I just read an article stating the Samsung is going to start the mass production of it's on line of SD Cards. Samsung is nuts. If something is too expensive and effects their bottom line they just make it themselves and get into that market.
I have a bunch of 4GB and 8GB microsd cards, and I have noticed that the class 4 sandisk are faster than the pny, patriot, and Samsung class 6 I have. The class 2 sandisk and Samsung I have are faster than my pny class 4.

Too right. My Class 2 Sandisk card benchmark write speeds are ~5.5MB/s - enough for HD encoding and decoding.
Wonder if anyone has tried these in an Epic 4G yet?
deleted for dumb.
Class 10 cards have longer random access times than class 4 cards i believe
So only get a class 10 card for shooting HD video, for apps, lower class cards are superior
Ok, I paid $99 for a 32GB when it first came out over a year ago and I filled it fast... Why am I so tempted to order a $225 64GB card from SanDisk right now?
http://www.dailysteals.com/ had a one day deal for a Samsung 16GB microSD for $15 shipped. It's a Class 2 but I'm just using it for storing music and files.

You didn't notice the video posted in this thread of a 64GB micro SDXC working in the galaxy S2...
PCMag specifically tested the 64gb card in an Epic 4g Touch and a number of other android devices and reports it works.
Personally I'm going to wait a month or two for the cards to start showing up at online retailers at a lower price, $219 is just too rich for my blood.

32GB microsd class 10

Anyone got 32GB microsd class 10 for their Note? If so where did you get it and how is it? I found Samsung ones on Amazon but even though it says that it is class 10 people are claiming that speeds are more like class 2. So, I want to get one but want one that was tried and works. Thanks!

Can't comment on that card but did get a Samsung 16GB class 10 and then found out (after I'd ordered it) that class 4 are the best for phones as you tend to be writing mixed content. Apparently the c10 cards are not optimised for this and can be slower than c4. I can say that I recently connected my Note as a USB device to write a 2.5GB video to my SD card and got over 10MB/sec so am very happy to have gone for the c10 version.

/sdcard/ is not external sdcard for SG Note. It is /sdcard/external_sd. As proof, check its size is not 16 GB (14053 MB) but more 12 GB (11168 MB) that is equal to the 16 GB of the phone minus memory allocated to the system.

Careful! I have ordered one of these (Lexar 32GB Class 10) from Amazon. At first it worked fine but after a few days the phone started showing "SD Card Damaged" and it wouldn't access it at all. Formatting didn't help. Yet, it would work just fine in an USB adapter in a PC...
The weirdest thing is that the EXACT same thing happened with my second Note (I returned the first one to Expansys and got one from Amazon.de £70 cheaper . No comprendo.
(When I checked kernel logs (dmesg) on the Note, there was a problem right on the block layer... It couldn't read the raw device (sdc))
Exactly the same problem with the Lexar 32GB Class 10 for me as well in both the GNote and GS2. Never had a problem with any form of SD card in the past. RMA'd the Lexar and will probably try a Samsung Class 10 next.

There is no real advantage of class 10 over class 4 in a mobile phone, where random read write is the key thing.
However I have seen good class 10 cards with good random read write speeds.
See towards the last few pages of the above thread.
If u can find the random read write of samsung class 10 , it would be great to know.

Recommendations for Class 10 16gb micro sd?!

I used to have a patriotic class 10 signature 16gb card that jus died. Apparently, I took advantage too many times of just unplugging with out disconnecting first. Stupid self.
Now I would like to replace it but I don't necessarily want the same card I feel the class 10 was performing more like class 8 or below on my Epic Touch.
Does anyone have a class 10 16gb that perform top notch on their epic touch?
I also curious does deleting a picture causes a stop in playing music for everyone else with their epic touch. I just can't recall this ever happening on my evo before.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Edit : Apparently, I just read some reviews on the patriot sd card and for some reason with Android phones and tablets they sometimes go corrupt and need to be reformatted. There is also an occasional freeze as well. It appears then these cards can't be used right now until they fix this. Just wanted to post this in case others were experiencing issues with their patriot sd card
I've heard great things about these http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0058GH4U0/ref=ox_ya_os_product
They were sold out for a whole month so it's possible they may sell out again. Check out the reviews
I can warn you against wintech filemate... CRAP!

SanDisk is the best. I been using this one for over a year between 2 phones and never a problem. Class 4 but plenty fast.

SanDisk 16GB Class 4 for $8 is refurb (I would rather go new, but it may be fine)
I have many SanDisk cards and they routinely test as double their stated class. (Class 4 card tests as class 8). I have some cards that are stated as clas 10 and routinely test at under their stated class (Class 10 card tests as class 6)
So I would not put too much stock in their stated ratings.
Buy SanDisk, you will not be disappointed.
If you need one that says Class 10 on it, try this one from Samsung:
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-MicroSDHC-Memory-Komputerbay-adaptor/dp/B00698ZUHK/ref=pd_cp_e_3
Microcenter sales them for 25 bucks. They have their own brand. I believe it I'd made by Kingston. I have been using out for 4 months and had no issues.
On my Epic mobile phone.
You really don't need to spend the extra money on a class 10 card for your phone.

I have two Wintec 32GB Class 10 cards and they work fine for me. One is in my ET4G and one is in my Nook Color. Not a stitch of problem from either and they're both about a year old. Granted, they don't test out at 10, but they are faster than a SanDisk Class 2.
i just got a Sammie 16gb class 10 for 11 bucks on Amazon

mind sharing the link
Amazon $47.00
OEM 32GB 32G Class 10 MicroSD C10 MicroSDHC Micro SDHC Memory Card with SD
Mine works fine and its fast.
A year old? Well I have the 16GB class 10 and it was great for a few months and now is unformattable. I hit the forums and found this common. Bit the bullet and dropped $45 on samsungs 32gb class 10.
I always buy the adata cards from Newegg. Had one I'm still using for 3 years now.

Recomend me an SD Card

I'm looking to buy an SD card (in the UK) but having never bought one i dont know which to get since there's about 50,000 choices. I dont really want to spend much more than £15 and im sure 16gb will be enough.
If anyone can offer any suggestions i'd really appreciate it.
buy a cheap one and watch it break... get a decent branded one - i have samsung class 10
I bought one samsung class 10 16gb, 32$ on ebay.
like bigmrb says, get a decent branded one and forget about it
Is this the kind of thing i should go for?
It seems very cheap, am i missing something?

Does class 4 not mean its quite slow? Everyone seems to recommend getting a class 10.
I have a Sandisk Micro SD 32GB SDHC Class 4 just as good as a class 10... was $30 AUD

Depends on the manufacturer, i also have a Sandisk 8GB class 4 and it is quite fast but if your really concerned about speed then get a class 10, only reason i got a class 10 is that it was on sale but i just wanted a 32GB card regardless if it was class 4 or 10
This is the best. Period.

got myself sandisk 8gb class4. the problem is that it makes my phone reboot randomly. in a day i got 3+ i think.
perhaps a defective one... i'll try to reformat as what mentioned in one of the threads here. and resit too.

Very true !
I got the Silicon Power 32GB Class 4 microSD. Haven't had a problem with it, was cheap (AUD $44) but is quite slow (about 2-3MB/s) which is expected from a Class 4 card.
Btw class 10 won't make huge difference in ur phone compared to class 4 but when copying to pc its a massive difference
How about this one? 16gb Samsung class 10 for £13?

if it's too cheap to be true, it most likely is. I can tell you right now that sir, is a fake.

My Lexar Class 10 is, as expected, twice as quick at transferring files as my old Sandisk class 4.
