I have a HTC Desire and im after a larger storage than 4gb included.
I'm a bit wary of class 2 cards in fear they will be very slow. And I'm also wary of fake cards on ebay for example.
Also does class 4 vs 6 make a large difference?
I want a 32gb if its the right price (and not class 2?) but im not sure where to buy from. The site must be able to ship to new zealand.
Thanks.
I know that Verizon is supposed to be selling 32GB microSD cards, not sure about the class but I don't think their class 2. There normally $150 but have been on sale for $99 at least 1 or 2 times. So even if it is a class 2, still better than the $199 price for the Sandisk 32gb one on Amazon. Either way good luck, I hope you find the card your looking for!

I bought a 32gb from http://www.jr.com.
Seen the verbatim 32gb mSD class6 at amazon for 89$/free SH, and seen the 16gb's from 25-60 depending on brand/speed
Hey just wondering,where are you getting info on the micro SD cards? All I have found so far says 2 is faster than 4. I'm not saying I'm right your wrong but I just purchased a class2 today under that assumption.

lol. that is regular sd card not micro sd.
There is not a 32gb class 6 micro sd card on the market as of today.
Yeah, class 4 is about twice as fast as class 2 cards. I would say the best price/speed ratio right now is the Kingston 16GB Class 4 MicroSD card. Best places to buy micro sd cards online would be Amazon and Newegg. There's hardly any bull**** with the products on those 2 sites.
Amazon UK - You've now got 32 gb class 6 micro sdhc at £88.00 link class 4 at £85 link . I just ordered a class 2 for £64.49 including postage - link
Hope it helps.
Uhmm, a bit of confusion in my mind, wich class is enought for my Galaxy S?
The 'class' rating on the card can basically be thought of as the tested minimum transfer speed (sustained - not random. A random write can far exceed the class rating).
class 2 (~1Mb /s)
class 4 (~2Mb /s)
class 6 (~3Mb /s)
and the highest I've seen is class 10 (~4Mb /s) which I doubt any of us are going to buy.
So far as I know, there is NO CLASS 8 - don't buy one, it's probably a fake. By the way those ratings are in mega bytes not mega bits if you need the bit speed just multiply by 8.
Now if you're ever told 2 is faster than 4 you can laugh in their face - when (dealing with technology) has a lower number ever been better???

I meant to answer this earlier but any class would be more than enough for the galaxy s. The reason you want a higher transfer speed is that loading 8, 16, or 32 GB of data can take forever depending on the type and amount of data. As far as the phone is concerned, a class 2 is fast enough for a swap file, video/movie, or music.

I agree, the phone is going to max out before the card does.
Hey gang. I am new here. I just purchased a 32gb card class 2 for my Samsung Vibrant. I noticed it handles just about everything except recording hd video directly to the card. The first few seconds during playback show as rainbow colored garbled pixels then clears up to play clearly. Reduce the recording resolution of the video and it plays fine. Record hd video to phone then transfer to card and it plays fine. It is a brand new card (kingston) with next to no data on it so far. Anyone else having this issue? I am thinking I need a card with a higher class rating.....

To record HD video smoothly you are gonna need at-least a class 4 and maybe a class 6. Class 2 doesnt write fast enough to keep up, thats why you had the pixelation distortion.
As far as a 32gb class 6 card, I am afraid we are out of luck until these cards come onto the market. Samsung has been working on a new card I heard.
Hoever, newegg does have class 4 cards in 32 gb for around 100 bucks.
Hope this helps.
UPDATE
there is a class 6 32 gig card I found at amazon but it is a "Komputerbay" brand so buyer beware.

Who knows good places to buy memory cards in EU?
Hello. On ebay 32 gb class 10 is maximum 50 dollars, 16 gb is max 27 dollars. But i dont trust if they are real or fake. You know, they make Samsung's, sandisks fake and no clue to understand if it is like that.
So, where is best to buy, cheap and safe? Amazon, ebay?
And what brand, kingston Samsung, Sandisk?
Preferably class 2+ but compatible. Anyone have any links or recommendations?
No link but amazon has the 16s for 30.

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.

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.

Yeah this one, or a lexar class 10 if you want high transfer speeds with your pc.
Or a sandisk class 2 if you dont care about recording movies to your micro sd card.
the sandisk 32gb class 4 will work good with 1080p recording ?
and where i can buy it ?
because on amazon.com i can't find the class....
thanks
When I bought the Samsung WB2000 / TL350 compact camera which recorded 1080p @30fps it required a "Sandisk Extreme"... It apparently has a 20MB/s write speed. No class written on the card though...I think it's class 6 as class 10 is 30MB/s.
I would have thought you'd need a higher class to write HD video...
Note: "Sandisk Extreme" is a SD card not a Micro-sd

There is no class certified for 20MBps or 30MBps.
Class 10 = 10 MBps, thats why is 10.
So class 6 = 6MBps, class 4 = 4MBps, class 2 = 2MBps.
Class is equal to the minimum write speed in random spaces.

No, Class is the minimum write/read speed in sequential. The Lexar Class 10 32GB only does 0.018 MB/s in random write!
any more answer that might help me choose a good card ?

You need to figure out what you need in terms of speed and size, then how much money you want to spend. A 32GB class 10 card is extremely expensive, where a 16GB class 6 is around a third of that. I plan on using my Galaxy S II for holding all my music and some movies so I ordered this yesterday: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820208573. Not too expensive and fast enough for most things.

as i said
i want 16gb but don't know which class and brand to take...
my main concern is recording video in 1080p
I have a class 10 Lexar 32GB Card.
You should buy a brand name card (Sandisk, Lexar, Kingston). I say that because there are IN GENERAL more reliable. There will be cards that are made by lesser known brands like Patriot and A-Ram but that does not mean they are any less reliable but more faults are reported for them than with Sandisk, Kingston or Lexar.
Having said that, my previous card was a 16GB Class 6 Patriot card. Worked awesome for a whole year and is still working in my friend's Desire (gave it to him and got the Lexar card for more space). In conclusion, don't buy eBay cards is what I'm trying to say.
Class? That's been debated A LOT. I got a class 10 and I can clearly see the benefit. Media Scanning is less than 10 seconds (mind you, I've got close to 38gb full in both internal and external cards), file copying is very quick and gallery files show up quicker, when I seek in a video file, it moves instantly (even with a 1080p movie).
It just depends on what you require. If you're slightly more patient, you can save 30-40 bucks by getting a 32gb class 2 card instead of a 32gb class 10 card.
Hope that helps. I recommend both Lexar and Patriot. Go for class 6 at least if price is not an issue.

me too though i am using sandisk brand. its good.
Patriot Class 10 cards gave me problems on my Nexus One, and reportedly had a spectacular fail rate on Android and WP7 phones.. does that still apply?
Why is the kingston like half the price of the sandisk aren't they both top brands? Also will class 4 be able to function properly?
Guess i'll remove the links caues of the rules but at amazon the sandisk 32gb class 4 is List Price CDN$ 131.76 and at other various sites the kingston 32gb class 4 is around $55-70.
I am currently using verified-genuine 32gb Kingston class 4. No problem so far. Transfer rate about 5.6 to 6.1 mb/s. Taken Full Hd video. No jerk or whatsoever.
But be careful of fake Kingston. Best thing to do is before you buy, verify the card serial no at Kingston website in front of the vendor.

Hmmm I doub`t I can do that considering i am ordering online but i ordered all my computer parts from ncix and had no issues I highly doubt they sell fake cards they are like newegg.com but for canada. Still not sure if I should go for the sandisk over the kingston
If they are that reliable, then u should go ahead and order. A class 4 will always be a class 4, no more or less in performance, if it's genuine.
If u want to get a sandisk class 4, u can actually top up a little bit and go for a class 10

Thanks for the reply what did you mean by I can top up a little bit?
Because that Sandisk Class 4 is overpriced.
For an equivalent of CDN$100, I can get a Lexar Class 10 32GB MicroSD. Great in sequential speeds but **** in random writes. Still, it is just to prove a point that the Sandisk that you are looking at is overpriced. Over here, the Sandisk Class 4 sells for 30-40% cheaper than the Lexar Class 10!

If the Kingston Class 4 transfer speeds are what the user above was reporting then think about getting a Class 2 Sandisk one (if its cheaper). My Class 2 Sandisk reads/writes at 5.5mb/s.

I keep googling deals on microsd cards. This one came up today. Saw a TEAM card on sale for the same price a week ago but let it slip. Might jump on this one.
Of course Samsung and Sandisk are probably more trustworthy manufacturers.
just picked one up from the ebay site..
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820313253 is a little better deal. It's a class 6 but if you do the free 4 day shipping and 30% off w/ promo code EMCNDHH73, you only pay $15.39 out the door so to speak for a 32gb class 6 card.

EDIT: It's a Team. $27.49 and 20% with code EMCNDHD73
FYI: a good way to find out if your card's a fake: SD Card Tester, a free app from the PlayStore.........it gives your read/write speeds, card volume + limited diagnostics.
Yea, agreed......lotta fakes out there!
My SanDisk 64GB class10 microSDXC from eBay isn't a fake (but I knew that already).
Using the SD Card Tester app, it benches the same in writes (~10MB/s) as Antutu, but slower in reads (~18MB/s vs ~30MB/s in antutu).
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
frys has 32gb class 10 for $22. Probably good till friday.
none of the Class 10 Sandisk cards write as fast as the Samsung, its really discouraging that Sandisk would hide the fact that the write speed is 1/3 of its read speed. Look at http://www.bhphotovideo.com they have read and write speeds listed per card and being this info is very important to photographers and videographers its pretty legit.

the class 10 sandisk 64gb card I have writes at least 11 Mbps. which is pretty 'close' to the listed speed of the samsung 32gb class 10 but double the memory.
