Micro SDHC Compatibility

Hi,
This may be a silly question for some but i've searched around and i still cannot find a definitive answer anywhere with regards to micro sdhc cards being used in the samsung galaxy s. If i was to purchase a micro sdhc card am i going to need some form of adapter? I only ask because most places i shop around only sell micro sdhc cards.
It was my understanding that the galaxy s only had a micro sd slot which is what is currently confusing me.
Thanks.

it supports up to 32 GB of microSD
anything larger than 4 GB = SDHC support

Galaxy S supports Micro SDHC.
(Allgamer basically said that, just in a slightly roundabout manner).

I'd like to know (please), whether the device can perform all functionality such as record hd and playback 720p movies over dlna from a class 2 card? I want to order a sandisk 16gb card, but would save the pennies on a class 4, if a class 2 performs well.

you could still get a class 6 16GB cheaper than getting a Class 2 16GB Sandisk, if you buy from other brands like Transcend (excellent), Adata, OCZ, Kingston, etc....

If it helps, I'm using an old class 6 Transcend 8GB. Bought for a micro DVcam (hence the need for class 6) last year and think it was around £10 then - possibly cheaper now?

You can get a 8 GB SDHC from DealExtreme.com for < $20 any day of the week.

Lexar Secure Digital 16GB class 10, 133X
How about this one?
Lexar Secure Digital 16GB class 10, 133X
Tip: SDHC
Size (MB): 16384
Rate (MB/s): 20MB/s
Class 10
Is Lexar a good name for memories?

I am currently using 4 GB Micro SDHC card with SGS.It is my old phones (HTC HD Mini) Micro SDHC card and it is working great.

I just bought this Wintec 16GB class 10 from Newegg.com... now whether it's an actual class 10 that's to be determined cause it's in the mail. But for $30 you at least get 16GB.

anyone try a-data 32gb class 10?
I'm curious if anyone try a-data 32gb class 10?
half the price of other 32gb cards.
the reason I ask is many folks report issues with hd cams.

Talking about the classes.. ya think the GalaxyS can really max out the speed? I doubt so..

not that i know of, so far all the confirmed legit SanDisk 32Gb has been Class 2
some places advertise they have Class 4 SanDisk 32Gb microSD but.... the picture and the price listed are those of a Class 2
some people have confirmed the Class 2 SanDisk 32Gb microSD can write 4Mb/s but that was on a new empty disk test
i would like to see some test done on 60% full 32Gb Class 2 SanDisk microSD to see if it can sustain a Class 4 write after half full, being a Class 2

check this review link http://www.testfreaks.com/blog/review/review-of-kingston-class-4-32gb-microsdhc-card/
should buy Kingston or Sandisk 32GB MicroSD for my Samsung GT-i9000 Galaxy S
or any other brand?

How ?? A 720p video at maximum quality usually takes around 1.5 ~ 1.8MBps, so a Class 2 (2MBps guaranteed write speed) in theory should be quite sufficient, at least with my Class 2 cards I haven’t had any trouble recording 720p video.The Sandisk 16GB Class 2 I have can be written to at a minimum constant speed of 8MBps (has around 4Gigs of Data on it already). And the Nokia branded (not sure about the actual brand) 8GB Class 2 which I got with my previous Nokia phone can be written to at 4MBps + (has 7Gigs of Data already). So IMO as long as you go with a name brand you should be able to get more than 2MBps writing speed which should be enough for 720p video.
You might get better speeds when transferring large files to your phone, but how often do you do that ?? And if you do that over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth like I mostly do, it won't matter at all. Spending on anything above class 6 (e.g Class 10) IMO is a total waste of money. I use a class 6 on my DSLR to record 1080p video, haven't had any issues with it so far. So I hardly think Galaxy S can exhaust a Class 6 card, or even a branded Class 2.

video is a secondary use
i use it mainly for applications and data transfer (portable hard drive), the faster the better, the less noticeable lag, and speeds up Titanium Backup quite considerably

The recent batch of SanDisk microSDHC cards (seen here in Brussels in Media Markt and Fnac) has Class 2 marking changed to Class 4 (8, 16 and 32GB). They have exactly the same packaging down to part numbers. That's mine for example: http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e62/ping_ling/android/microsdhc.jpg

4 and 6 are speeds, 4 being the slower of the two. Class 4 should be fine.

why would you buy a 4gb.. you can get a good class 6 or higher 16 gb now for about 25 dollars.. i recommend the a-data 16gb class 6. i have had them in 5 diff phones.. never anissue.

so, class 4 should be fine for hd video recording and other usage right...
thanks for comments..

no i would not get that ,, as i said get adata.. i have had 3 sandisk 16gb fail.. they are terrible quality.. the 8gb are fine.. but their 16gb are trash.

can somene please post some links from ebay where you bought your cards. Im looking for class 6, 8 and 16 gb. I dont know which are original, some are cheap but then i think, they are probably a copy.

At present micro sdhc class grading goes upto class 10, the class rating only refer to the minumum read and write speed, so a class 4 is not neccessary slower than a class 6, for more information, click on the link in my sig, the info is rather out dated, like a few years back, but gives you a rough idea about micro sdhc cards.

Micro SD Card

Hi there as we start to get ready for the purchase of our new 3D Phone.

Got a 16GB sandisk class 4 that has been tested to run at class 6 read and almost 6 at write.
Now there is a sale on integral, kingston and sandisk, all at class 4.
Keep an eye open they may get something better...

Does anyone know if Lexar Micro SD Cards are any good?

Lexar are maybe the best memory avaiable.
I bought a Mustang 16gb class10
done some test:
18-20mb/s read
15-17mb/s write
so fast

If you can recommend the Mustang Cards i think i'll try one as well as they are really cheap compared to other cards (~35€ for 32GB instead of 45€-60€). Will get the 32GB though.

yes i have one olso on my digital camera and 0 problems

http://www.redcoon.be/index.php/cmd...9461/cid/37002/ADATA_microSDHC_32GB_Class_10/

I have an ADATA 32GB SDHC class 4 but when connected via USB cable in mass storage mode the write speed stays below 300KB/s.
If I place the card in a USB adapter the writing speed is about 4,6MB/sec.
What is the problem? Thanks!

Doesn't the PSP run on Memory Stick's rather than SD cards?

Am using A-Data 8GB class 4, it works fine (both stills and video is being smoothly recorded) so i dont see any reason why to pay more for better (faster) class

I bought my device in Chennai ,I got a sandisk 8GB class 4

Samsung 8GB - class 2
new Desire S from Jun - O2 UK Branding
but very slow on HDD-Speedtest - only 3-5mb/sec
changed it to an 16gb Scandisk - class 2 - but 18mb/sec average
it's better now
the *bad* Samsung now is for my cheap China Tablet

I would take the back off to look, but it would take me hours to get the damn thing on again

Sandisk 8GB Class 4 as well. Makes sense since Sandisk is also from Taiwan.

Hi,
about 3 months ago I bought a SanDisk Ultra 64GB microSDXC UHS-I and it works great.
The only thing you have to consider is that you need FW 10.3.1.A.2.67 or higher for 64 GB (and some CustomKernels seems to have problems with it.)
My last 32GB was a Transcend. Worked fine too.
