Class 4 - 16GB Micro SDHC Card now in UK

OK, 7dayshop are selling the following for £38.99 in the UK
Micro SD High Capacity (MICROSD-HC) Memory Card - 16GB Class 4 (118x) - Dane-Elec
Will it make any difference to the X1 if its a class 2 card or a class 4 card?

The classes defines the writingspeed of a memory card. A class 2 Card can write 2 MB, class 4 4MB/second. The real writing speed is much different. My 16GB Memorycard (Class2) is much faster than my 8GB Card (Class 4).

Yeah that true i have reliaze that after i have already buy a dan-elec MicroSd of 4Gb and it is slower in writing than my old one MicroSD 8Gb Sandisk (OEM with my xperia)...
So i recommend you to buy a MicroSD Sandisk this brand is faster and more quality...
And if sonyericsson choose it..Is for something isn' t it?
Also Kingston are good but Dan-Elec or Duracell (Are the same)
Are the worst i think....
Very slow.............

brand makes a difference.
I have a 16G sandisk class 2, althoguh I did not do any benchmarking, it doesnt feel any slower than my previous 8G sandisk class 4 card.
You won't see a difference if you don't do continuous photo shooting or copy big files from your desktop to your card anyway. I say for the purpose of the card (i.e. used in mobile devices) a class 2 is sufficient but I would still recommend getting from reliable brand like sandisk.

32GB microSDHC - Will it work in TP2?

SanDisk ships 32GB microSDHC card for $200
Just curious what the actual limit is of our Touch Pro 2's SD card slot. Currently i have an 8gig in it, but want a bigger one. Thought about 16gig's but would like to put all my music on it.
Also, how fast can the sd slot go? Does it support class 6+ cards?

I believe the Rhodium can handle class 6 cards. but im not 100% sure.
Its max is 32gb.
I was gonna purchase one. But way back when i got my phone 32gb cards didn't exist lol
I've got a Sandisk Class 2 16GB at the moment and its absolutely fine
Pack full of music

[Q] 32 GB Memory Card

Is it advisable to go for the memory card for S3 ? Would it slow the data access speed ?
I am thinking of to get 32 GB memory card, though i am open for 64 GB too provided its not very expensive.
For 32 GB card i found SanDisk, Samsung's own card on amazon, can someone suggest which memory card is better (for 32 GB) and for (64 GB) for Samsung Galaxy S3 (ATT) .

I would recommend SanDisk, from a reputable seller for either size.

Personally, I wouldn't worry about getting a memory card unless you're running out of storage space. External cards will be slower than internal storage, but with a sufficiently high speed card, you won't really notice the difference in most cases.
I wouldn't really worry about brand unless you've never heard of the company (in which case beware).

I only advised SanDisk because of the 64 gb size. I've heard reports of some people having problems. I personally have a 32GB class 10 SanDisk that has been great. I use it as my storage for most everything on device (even my TiBu folder).

I'll take the opportunity to note that an SD card is great for backup purposes. It made getting my newest phone up and running with all my old data a breeze.

Exactly. Tbh, it's the same card i had in my Inspire, which had no usable internal storage. Plus, put everything on the external and if the phone suddenly craps out you won't lose your photos,etc.

thank you all for suggestions:
narrowed down my choice to :

Couldnt decide which to go and whats the difference between these ? Are these even good ones ?

i'm using the 64gb sandisk class 10 with no probs..the only thing i had to do was what other users have reported: reformat to fat32. it's been really fast. it seems to perform a lot better when it's connected in media mode as opposed to the usb mass storage mode in my experience. if u can find one for about 50 bucks, I think it's really worth it.

I grabbed a Samsung Class 10 32 GB card from Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005TUQV0E/
From what I can tell it gets the job pretty well. Benchmark speeds are fairly close to the advertised speeds.

Thanks

I think the mobile ultra is water and shock resistant.

Isn't every micro/mini, /sd card... I've washed cards many times...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium

The difference is the Adapter is microSDHC to SD whereas
the USB reader one is a microSDHC to USB.
I got the USB reader since it's USB and can use in anything. The micro to SD you could use for a macbook or for photo/video in camera.

purchase the right Micro sd card

could you tell me what Micro sd card you guys are using,I am fixing to buy one and want to make sure I get the right one,,will this one work
http://www.sandisk.com/products/memo...?capacity=64GB
the micro sd xc is what I am looking at,I appreciate your help thanks

I have a Sandisk class 10 64GB works great

get the fastest and highest capacity your money can buy, on the Note 2 64gb is the limit of external memory.

Im using the 64GB class 10 and its working great. There is an extreme pro available but only comes up to 16GB which is a shame considering transfer speeds are 3 times that of the class 10 one.

64
Im gonna buy the sandisk ultra micro sdxc 64 gb card,thanks for all yalls help...

you know, they with the older phones they always listed 32GB as the maximum, but when 64 came out it worked on many of them. I would bet money that when the 128GB cards hit they will still work with this phone.

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!
