what apps are you running of your SD card? my desire goes slow on larger apps (2MB+) on anything lower than class 6. Non rooted desire seems fine with <class 6 and general file use, rooted desire and more things on the SD is a performance hit

none yet, haven't rooted yet...waiting for froyo

Copy all important data/pics/backups to a computer! Once SD memory goes, its gone for good mostly.
I'm way too paranoid about flash memory failure to spend more than 50ish on a microSD card.
Last time my 16GB SD card crapped out on me, and I lost lots of pictures and videos from a trip.
As far as 16GB class 10, it could be nice depending on the price....

Ordered, thanks.
Class is just the minimum the data transfer's are rated to run at, not the maximum that the actual card can run. So my Class 2 could run at Class 6 speeds, but not garaunteed to do so.
Thanks for the great link though, gonna grab one!

I honestly don't think a lot of these high class less quality SD cards are worth it. As mentioned earlier in this thread, the class is only minimum. It also doesn't take into consideration the longevity of the card. I bought the 32gb patriot (Class 10) from new egg and it totally when bad on me after 3 weeks. I lost some important info (backup up most). Was able to luckily return it just under the 4 week limit newegg has for returns. Not to mention the speed was really no different that I could notice compared to the stock SD card. I'm probably going to get the Sandisk soon since it's the only brand that I trust.
Im looking to get a new 32g sd card whats the best one to get. I've been using my 8g sd card for about 2 years now I never had problems just want a 32g.

I bought the 32gb that Verizon sells today for $99. It was regularly $149 but its on sell right now. Its still kind of pricey, but I really like it. Doesn't slow anything down, and now I can put more music and movies on my phone. You can get the same card on Ebay for around $65 right now. It's a SanDisk brand and Ive always had good luck with them.
I need a 32gb my 16 is full I keep having to delete old stuff and store it on my computer. I want to keep everything on my phone.

Micro SD card deals

I went looking for a microSD card over the weekend and was really disappointed in the prices I found. A lot of the deals were already sold out at Fry's and CompUSA (Tiger Direct).
I'd like to start this thread to help others (and me ) find the best deals on expanded memory for our phones.
Any good finds?
This 16BG class 10 card was on sale this weekend at Fry's for around $10, but it was gone by 9:30 on Saturday morning.

AmazonBasics cards are cheap and great quality
You may want to look into getting Sandisk branded cards instead of just any old card.
Some of the class 10 cards out there have atrocious small block random read/write speeds, and that has been a major issue for the Nook Color world. That being said, we aren't running a complete OS off the SD card on our skyrockets, but even running apps off the card may cause speed issues.
Nook Color SD Card Thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1005633
All of the benchmark data in that thread summarized into a google docs spreadsheet:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AjPE3ZAD2eVudE9vZmQ3aHlfTkFvU2J4ZUplRDJQTEE
I can't vouch for any cards other than what I've seen -- Class 10 Patriot, Class 10 A-Data, 3x Class 4 SanDisks, and an unmarked SanDisk. Everything (including the unmarked SanDisk) except for the Class 2/4 SanDisks were atrocious in running a SD card based OS on my Nook. My Class 4 SanDisks benchmarked somewhere between 20x and 40x faster than the other cards for small block writes.

This is not the first time I have heard the Sandisk 64Gb microsd works after a reformat. Now they are down to $150 for a class 6 and I am seriously about to try one out.

Thanks, that looks like a good quality card. I was going to hold off on buying a microsd for my phone, but $27 for 16GB and those speeds people are posting looks really good. In for one.

Anyone buying this?
Just checking the user reviews: Pic is of Class 4 but there are differing reviews about receiving Class 2 or Class 4 cards.
Where is the seller stating the class of the card, aside from the pics?
I recommend getting the SanDisk class 4 over wintec class 10 I bought 3 16gb cards last year, and both class 2 sandisks outperformed class 10 wintec in every benchmark, especially random read/write speed. SanDisk was 4 times faster. And I did not get a defective wintec. Mine tested the same as others. Both SanDisk I got preform over class 10 speeds, and many others get the same results with SanDisk.

class 4 has better read/write than a class 10. For us that's better BC we have tons of photos, music, apps. Etc all of which are small files when compared to full length movies n such. That's why a class 4 is better than a class 10.

bull**** man class 10 have much better read/write, because it's just faster... if u want better performance, on SAME CARD, i mean on one class 4, and second same u have bad feeling - u need to change allocation size unit - only here is difference for files. Believe me, i have 4 cards for now. Class 10 (in phone), class 4, class 8, and one no-name (without class?) and best of all is class 10.
It's just imposible that class 4 can be better than class 10...
and at the end:
1. u using your card only for phone? Coz when i get full card in my camera - i can easy change it to card from phone, and it's just better...
2. even if class 4 have better read/write (but this is just impossible) why u care? Except price, why? U can't record videos in real HD on this phone, because phone is not made for recording vids... and this is only one reason why u need better read/write... even on class 2 u can play games without any errors or something..
So class 4 sells cheaper than a class 10 because it's a much better card. Makes a lot of sense! ;D
Sent from my HTC Sensation
Class 4 does not have a better read/write speed than a class 10, but to achieve class 10 speeds (10MB+/second write speed), you sacrifice random access speed. A slow random access speed impacts things like playing music or looking at pictures.
There is really no need to get a class 10 for a phone unless you're seriously that impatient when it comes to copying your few gigs over the first time you use it.
There was a HUGE thread about classes and it came down to Class 4 being the better choice for mobile phones. For more information just look for threads on the subject and see what has to he said.

Thankyou for informing us about this amazing deal.
Got my 32GB Sandisk Class 4 today, took UPS two days to ship. As for the card, it writes at about 2MBs to 3.6MBs, so it's clearly not a class 4. I bought a 16GB Sandisk a while back, it's write speeds were also supposedly class 4 but were abysmal. While this card is adequate, it's the last Sandisk I'll be buying. Kingston all the way, I've bought multiple 4GBs and 8GBs from them, each card was faster than it's rating.
Edit: Too be clear, I'm not betching about it being Class 2 plus or minus, but I don't like being lied to.

What class memory card & Sense Camera Mod

I was thinking of getting a new SD card for my Sensation, a 32GB. However, i cannot figure out what class to use - esp because im running the sense camera mod, which will require higher writing speeds, because of the Improved HD quality, right? :S
If that's the case, or even if not, which class memory card should i buy - taking into account recording hd videos and pics

I use an unbranded Class 10 16gb that works fine with the mod, even the 40mbps mod. Play.com do well priced own branded 32gb class 10 ones that are fine and, in my opinion more reliable than buying from Hong Kong
Yeah you don't need a class 10. I'm using a class 6 and it works just fine. Something to consider about class 10 is that you lose random access speed to gain faster sequential write speeds. That being said, on a mobile phone where you're constantly pulling up pictures and music and applications, a class 4 to 6 is usually preferred.
Be very careful with eBay. It's a great website, but I did get jammed with a Sandisk 16GB class 6 once. It's write speed? About 40Kbytes a second. Yeah, it was awful. Looked absolutely legit, seller was alright feedback wise, grammar was fine. Be careful.
Yes I would NOT buy it off eBay just for the reasons he wrote above! Very good fakes, hard to tell the difference!

Micro SD Speed Chart

This is a link of 2015 best Micro SD cards. Samsung has 10 year warranty and sits at second with Pro. That's what I'm going with. Google originally skipped external data due to its lack of speed and durability. This chart will show you what you should get to prepare for Android M at the end of September.
https://www.ephotozine.com/article/top-10-best-microsd-memory-cards-2015-27366
SanDisk has a U3 card ,Xtreme pro, that wasn't tested and is rated at 95mb/s
I'd still go with a 10 year warranty. SD cards aren't always most reliable. With 10 years, at least you have peace of mind knowing it might last several years.
Samsung Pro+ isn't on here either, but that's $50 for 32GB, as opposed to $27 on Amazon.

My issue is I have had 2 Samsung's fail in the past. I have 10 different sized SanDisk cards in the house and some older than 10 years. A 10 year warranty doesn't make it a better card. My point is not to buy a card or any product based on warranty.

All SanDisk cards have lifetime guarantee. I've replaced a couple over the years and all you have to do is chat online with them and tell them when you bought the card and what's wrong with it. You get an RMA and send it in. You'll get your new card in a couple weeks.

Too bad the write performance dips when you get to 128 gigs. It'd be nice to see some comparison between the various 128 gig offerings, but whatever, I already bought a Sandisk one. I honestly have no idea why someone would buy a 32 gig microSD these days. With how cheap the cards are, I'd go 64 if interested in speed, 128 if interested in storage.
Never used more than 16GB in my phone ever. Never understood people who bought more storage than they knew they would need...

Some people like to put their entire music collection on their phones. Also if you plan to use the new 4K video recording feature, file sizes are about 350mb per minute.
