16gb mircoSD Cards

I'm looking to get a new micro sd card, as my 8gb is out of room and frequently unmounts or goes read-only on my mobile. Im wondering where to get one and what kind of 16gb sd card I should get as after looking on ebay its a bit hard to tell what is fake and what isnt and I dont know any other stores that sell them..
Preferably class4+ and size 16gb
I live in australia by the way..

There is a guy selling some in the market here for $20, legit.
But I think there class 4 cards.
And this is the one thing that I wouldn't trust ebay with because there are so many fakes.

Wow nice, if only I lived in canada...
Do you know of a legitimate online store that sells them? I remember a thread that had good quality ones but I forgot the name of it and at the time they were out of stock..

Actually the guy selling them lives in the states.

Hi,
I had the same problem with the sporadically unmounts (sometimes several times a day) so I decided to buy a different card. I bought a class 4 Kingston 16GB sdhc on eBay. I paid in Germany about 29 Euro for it.
Now there are no more problems with the storage. I hope I could help you.

I've just ordered Patriot 16gb Class 10 through Amazon, it costs 30++ USD without shipping (considered very cheap for class 10 and it has quite a good review from users).

I'm using a Kingston 16GB class 4 card bought from Amazon, in my honest opinion I think that class 10 is much of a muchness and the price difference can be vast.
I would not buy from Ebay, chances of getting a fake is much higher here, rather use Amazon or some other reputable seller.

What is the cluster size did you format.

I got a few off ebay. They start low, around 1$ and go up, i got one for 11$ before.

i SO need to get me a bigger sd card!

I ended up buying this PNY card.
Write speed was 11.2 MB/s according to AnTuTu. Or 6.2 MB/s faster than my Class 4 Sandisk. I'm pretty happy with it so far. I hope it lasts a long time.

OK, with the right amount of groveling and my mother's zip code in Houston, I was able to convince AT&T to give me a $100 credit on my phone bill to compensate for the price difference between markets.
Now I can buy the phone from anywhere. So who has the best replacement plan and/or return policy?

Which microSD / microSDHC for Skyrocket?

Does anyone know what is the best external SD card for the Skyrocket? Samsung, SanDisk, Kingston, etc.? Is it worth the money to get a microSDHC card instead of a normal microSD? What is a reasonable price?
Thanks!

sdhc just means it's more then 2GB. if you want a good sd card go for class 10. the class is a grouping of how fast it is for reads and writes but not all class 10 cards are the same some are way faster then others. some people are huge fans of some brands I don't care that much as you still have no idea for some of the brands as to who made the chip.

I just got a 32GB microSDHC Full HD Class 10 SAMSUNG for 53.49 free shipping from a trusted seller in Ebay. I just got it tonight and it works amazing! it comes sealed in retail package and it has warranty.
If you are interested i can send you a link.

Thanks for the replays. I just got a Samsung 16gb microSDHC class 10 plus with SD adapter for 30 bucks at Fry's in Indy. I will see how it goes.

If speed nor 32gb is a concern, I just bought a 16gb class 4 at the price of $USD 2.99. The price went up a bit. But for $2.99, it was worth upgrading from my 2gb stock sd card! However, there is no micro to sd card adapter included. That wasn't an issue for me because I already own three of them.

Having had mine in for a week now, I apologize for not getting back for my review. But here it is now.
Previously I had a 16gb Sandisk class 4. Not bad, I didn't notice anything "odd," about it. But now having my new Gskill installed I can tell you that there is a 500% difference between the classes. Apps loading from the sd card load near of almost instantly. I don't experience ANY hiccups when playing back music from the sd card, where as I realize now I had previously. Camera speed has increased exponentially, and I can take quite a bit more pictures in the same amount of time as before.
CAVEAT, from a reboot or cold boot, where the phone is showing it is checking the sd card, it appears to take a bit longer then with teh 16 gb stick, BUT I place that more of on that it is checking double the size of previous. Checking time has increased by a mere 2 - 3 seconds over the 16gb model.
Overall, I would recommend getting one to just about anyone that is looking for one. The price is good, and shipping was quick and potentially painless. Mind you I do live in Anchorage Alaska.

Yeah ADATA also does RAM for PCs as well as flash drives and SSDs so they're pretty knowledgeable with storage devices.
I see ADATA 32GB C10 for $26.99 w/ Free shipping at NewEgg.
Theres also a lot of Class 4/6's on sale but thats if you don't care too much on transfer speeds.
Other companies to check out as well are:
Transcend, G.Skill, PNY, Patriot, Team
WEll known ones are:
SanDisk, Samsung, Kingston
There are other brands out there that are good and most of the time other companies just take a batch of OEM and just label them so as long as they're not shady and may seem like fakes then you can check those out as well. Just make sure when purchasing that you read reviews of the place you're buying from. :good:
