Hi I'm planning on buying a microsd card for my ATRIX. I want a 32gb one. Ive never bought one of these before so I dont know much. Can someone recommend a good one that would work with the ATRIX?
I'm buying off of amazon, so if you can, try to include links to amazon with the product.
Thanks in advance

Make sure you buy a fast card though. Mine is slower than I expected and it literally slows down my entire phone and I only have pictures and music stored on it. >:[
Definitely get a true class 10.

I just purchased the SDcard I quoted above, and by all reviews it surpasses the advertised speeds. Well worth it for $36 including shipping.
And remember...
The new(ish) Sandisk 64GB microsd also works in the Atrix. Got mine last week.
A little pricier... but you can NEVER have too much storage!
Using the SanDisk Mobile Ultra 32GB microSDHC Class 6
happy with the performance, i haven't tried the 64GB card yet but i guess i will have to soon..
I cant seem to find a 32gb card over class 4 on amazon. Can anyone link me to one? The reason I want it from amazon is because I have a gift card and would like to buy it with the gift card. Thanks!

just pre ordered my card from here after seeing your post, thanks for the heads up robbie
Good stuff! A phone like the S3 commands such a card too
I would add the One X too but....well LMAO!
My Class 2 8GB card from my HTC Touch HD will suffice!
I ordered this:

Erm Sandisk's Mobile Ultra UHS SDXC cards are temperature proof, waterproof, shock proof, xray proof etc as well and still just as fast and not limited to 32GB max like Samsung's current cards.

I just looked into them - but they are class 6's right?
I don't really need all that protection - it stays in my phone and is a happy bunny in there, if it gets water on it, then my £500 phone goes with it.
I' more interested in speeds - and I need nothing more than 16GB.
Have enough space with 8GB INT + 16GB EXT on my S1 - I;ll have an additional free 8GB with the S3. I don't see me filling it up any time soon.
Could you please tell me, speed only wise, the difference between the SDXC's and the SDHC's?
Considering I don't need to spend £45 on an microSD card - I'de be looking at the 16GB variants which in sandisk's case are SDHC's , equally on par with the Samsung cards.
Only difference is, the samsung ones are class 10 and the sandisk ones are class 6.
Am I wrong?
The class system is the mimimum speed at which they operate are expected to. The Sandisk one is class 10 and you will find Sandisk cards outperform their class specification almost all the time anyway.

No it isn't.
Only the 64GB model, the SDXC is a class 10, the other models, the lower space models, like the 32gb and 16gb are class 6 and denoted as SDHC
And I'm on about the 64GB model and have always been in this thread...!

I ordered this one and have just had an email from Amazon that it is due to be despatched on 17 May. A little more expensive than Play but should definitely have it in time and I have an Amazon gift certificate to use up.
---------- Post added at 04:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:03 PM ----------
I have just noticed that the Amazon one is called Sandisk Ultra but the Play one is called Sandisk Mobile Ultra and specifically mentions Android. Are these the same item or are their two versions of the 64Gb SDXC card?
Anyone know?

samsung is a class 10, sandisk a class 6.
I never was a SD card pro, until now
Upgraded from a 8GB Class 2 on my SGS to a Class 10 32GB from Samsung. More space for MKV movies ;]
Mine arrived class 10 "extreme speed"
I'll post speeds when I get back to the UK in around a week or so.
what would one recommend between a class 10 SanDisk 32gb and a class 10 Samsung 32gb? both very similarly priced

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.
Hey there, I've been using my Galaxy S2 for several months and never got to buying a memory card for it.
What you guys think is the best of the best?
How much GB?
Which manufacturer?
Model No?
What to look for when purchasing one on ebay?
Thanks!
just got a adata 32gb class 10, had a sandisk 32gb class 4 but its worth having a class 10 in it.
the R&W speeds when transfering data to pc is alot better and when taking pictures.
read 19.6mbs / write 13.2mbs with sdtools,had the same brand sd card before and was happy about the performance.
always use H2testw v1.4 just to be sure,it was the cheapest brand for its class locally.
32 Gb Microsdhc Class 10

I have a Kingmax microSDHC 32GB Class10 and I am very satisfied.
I tested it with SD Tools and got 9.1 MB/s writing speed, but in practice, it can go over 10 sometimes, but also can go lower to 3 MB/s and such.
I recommend this card, as is not very expensive either.
card
i have Kingmax 16g class6 its very good and very cheep
Buy any branded SD cards... But buy of high class bcoz now days they r becoming famous of high speed transcations...
Thanks guys, just bought a class10 32GB one cheers

Good choice! I also bought a class10 32GB SDHC from Samsung. It runs like hell! :victory:
I've got sandisk 16 gb SDHC class 4
and it runs like hell, so i cant imagine what class 10 is doing ....
but if you dont care spending another 10-20 bucks, then go for the class 10!
I have a 16GB Sandisk Micro SD Card. Its been working just great!
I paid 12USD.
Is it a big difference between @4 and @10? Worthy to pay more?

No, but class 10 is better (transfer, read speed)
It's Big difference. 4MB/s vs 10MB/s write speed is big diff.
Now i want to buy SanDisc 64GB SDXC class6, I heard that SDXC card works on SII.
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?
