16 Gb Micro SDHC TF Memory Card (Class 4)

Fake 16 Gb Kingston microSD card for just $26.40
The 8 Gb microSD card is $13.90
available at http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.50569
If somebody could report maximum speeds this would be great, I ordered mine today. I don't care its not genuine and not class 6.

Why would you do that when you can get genuine cards even cheaper than that
For example: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B002NTP06K/ref=noref?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&psc=1 (runs at Class 6 speeds)

I thought nothing would be cheaper than dealextreme

Kingston 32gb class 4 vs sandisk 32gb class 2

hey guys... how does a kingston 32gb class 4 compare to the sandisk class 32gb microsdhc card?
in terms of performance? i know kingston is a reputed brand....but sandisk usually ranks quite high in the memory card dept....

sandisk may be good now but their 16gb were pure trash.. i will never buy another sansdisk after i had 4 16gb cards fail on 3 diff phones..
i now use a-data 16gb class 6 cards.. never had a failure.

I just got a SanDisk 32GB card in an AT&T branded packaging from ebay for $70 shipped. I didn't want to risk buying Sandisk packaging or bulk packaging at lower price due to too many fakes. The AT&T branded packaging and the Verizon branded packaging are guarantee legit as it's a regional packaging only available in the U.S. After receiving the card, I tested it with H2testW 1.4 The performance is 5.47MB/s write and 14.8MB/s read. The total test time is a little over 2 hours and 7 minutes and it passed as a legit 32GB MicroSD card. This is easily a class 4 card. I read benchmarks that the Kingston's 32gb write speed is slower than Sandisk but the read speed is faster. I do notice one flaw that I was not able to flash the ROM from this card. I copied the same file to a 2GB card and was able to flash.

[Q] Which Memory card brand do you Prefer and what class

Guys
Which brand is perfect with no errors for the p500,
Is transcend Ok, without any reported problems???
cuz with transcend i have 2 options:
1) 8GB class 10
flipkart.com/mobiles/memory-cards/itmczcrqjfnkzhmr?pid=acccz4ffp9czdseh[/url]
2) 16GB class 4
flipkart.com/mobiles/memory-cards/itmczcrqpdjzzqy7?pid=acccz4ffdsujg99j
which shall i go for ?

That's actually a nice price for the class 10, but 8 is too little if you listen a bit of music. I just moved to a 16 Class 4, I'd say get a Class 6 is you can find one.

I have that Transcend 8GB and no error in past three months. It takes some time to load apps after boot (I have lots of apps on SD natively without a2sd scripts), but as it's about 5 to 10 seconds it's okay.

I went ahead an ordered the 8GB.. sadly the 16GB class 10 is out of stock here

i use 8gb class 6, transcend

My advice for memory is never buy off Ebay, I got mostly defective memory chips ( found out from testing with h2testw ) before I stopped wasting my time and got a 32GB class 10 Lexar. It's a great card and I've had good results from the Lexar brand. (Sandisk is also an excellent choice)

Transcend class 6

Trascend 16 gb class 10 micro sd
i bought it for 1490 and its excelent...

I picked up two kingston 8gb class 10 cards off of kingstons website for $18.99 each (on sale) with free shipping about two weeks ago. They have been just fine.

Works just fine with an Apacer class 4 8gb. It was cheaper than Transcend or Kingston.

Same, just using a class 4 Sandisk 8gb card that came with my phone when I bought it off the store. No problem with it (don't find it slow) but my music collection IS starting to fill up the space pretty quick (I blame FLAC) so I'm thinking of a new card.
What does everyone here think? Does an increased in class level make the phone any quicker?

For memory cards and flash drives I never buy anything other than PNY.

adata for me.

class 10 all the way, but couldn't afford anything over 4gb

I get Samsung 8Gb class 10 for 8,90€
Who wants one of this???

I've used a Transcend 4GB/Class6 and a Kingston 8GB/Class10 on my Optimus One.
Here are some minor problems i encountered with the Kingston Class10
1. Erratic behavior whenever I create an EXT partition (for Ungaze Data2SD or DT-App2SD purposes)
2. Using Antutu to benchmark the speed, it seems Optimus One tops at speed of 8MBps or Class8. Please confirm if you have a Class10 SD...

i was going to make a topic about this, but this seems like the appropriate thead to post...
i bought a microsd 4 gig class 4 from the source (nexxtech brand) and was screwing up my phone left right and center. i was originally using a 1 gig sd (not sdhc) and works better.
what the hell....

I'm using Transcend 8 Gb Class 10 card. SD Card write speed is 10 MB/s & read speed is 17 MB/s as per Antutu.
I read somewhere that LG P-500 is not compatible with class 4 & 6 cards for more than 4GB you need class 10 only. It seems to be very weird.

Lexar or Samsung 32gb MicroSD Card Recommend?

Hi guys i am looking to buy a 32gb Class 10, MicroSD card for my Desire, i am planning to partition it so i can have more internal space. After searching the market for a competitive price, i have came down to 2 options:
Lexar 32GB Micro SDHC Class 10 Extreme Speed
Samsung MB-MSBGAEU 32GB Class 10 Micro SD Card
I would appreciate if users here can recommend me which one i should go for and why (if owned either and used) ?
Thanks alot

As far as I know, many of the higher class cards have been produced by biasing performance to continuous read/write speeds, for use in camcorders/cameras etc so they can record ultra HD or burst capture etc. HOWEVER, for use in a phone, which needs greater random read/write access they can suffer compared to a regular class 4 which is a better balanced card. There is a lot of this going on in the HTC Mozart pages here on XDA, where I've been spending time (had a Mozart, ROM'd it and gave it to my girlfriend, she loves it).
Many people have tried different 32gb/16gb cards, different classes from 2-10 and the results have been surprising. WP7 seems to be unusually fussy about the cards that will actually work with it, and the only card guaranteed to work everytime is SANDISK which says a lot about the quality, and people have been finding that performance with a Class 4 SanDisk card is better than performance with a supposed Class 10 card by another manufacturer such as Integral, Transcend etc or even Samsung and Kingston.
In the end I bought a 32gb SanDisk Class 4 off Amazon, for a lot more than they are on eBay at around £28, apparently there are loads of near-fakes on eBay (only way I could guarantee it was genuine- the chinese are using genuine 4gb SanDisk cards and then re-branding and re-coding them as 32gb, the card thinks it's a 32gb, reports that it's a 32gb card but obviously runs out of room and has errors as soon as you try to put stuff on it).
Hope this helps- generally you get what you pay for and if it sounds too good to be true it usually is.

I bought yesterday a samsung class 6, 16 GB micro-sd card.
H2testw:
Writing speed: 10.00 MByte/s
Reading speed: 15.5 MByte/s

i know this post is about 20 days old, but maybe you haven't choosen a sd card yet
i first got a 16gb lexar class 6 card -> everything was fine
now i got a 32 gb samsung class 10 card
and i must say there is no remarkable speed/transfer difference
so buy a card which is class 6 or higher and everything should be fine

I have the Lexar class 10 32Gb card in my Desire, no problems. I bought it from Amazon during their Black Friday sale.

I have the Samsung 32gb class 10. Working flawlessly with 1gb ext4.

Lol I have the Samsung 32gb class 10. Working flawlessly with 2gb ext4.

Lexar 32 gb class 10
I got a lexar 32 gb class 10 at Christmas. So far no troubles, but I've never done any speed tests on it.
So far happy.

I got a 'Lexar 32GB Micro SDHC Class 10 High Speed' for £27 from Play.com and it works a treat!!!

Samsung MB-MSBGAEU 32GB Class 10 Micro SD Card

I think I have fallen foul of this, I bought two 32gb cards from'micro sd cards uk' @ about 15 quid each and I cant write to them properly they are class 10 so they should be ok but I have nothing but probs with them on two laptops with different cards readers,
Ill contact the vendors tomorrow Ill keep you posted.

Sounds very cheap for a class 10 32gb card, I bought my samsung one around christmas for £35 and that was the cheapest price at the time!
I'm sorry to say this but if something sounds to good to be true then it probably is...

Definately Lexar that's what use and its works great and very fast too

I have been using Lexar 32gb class 10 for a year and its very good. I bought it for 29$ on a sale and that's what makes it amazing actually.
Here are the avarege speeds after 3 runs:
Read 19.4
Write 10.8
I strongly suggest to anyone.

not just ebay
In the end I bought a 32gb SanDisk Class 4 off Amazon, for a lot more than they are on eBay at around £28, apparently there are loads of near-fakes on eBay (only way I could guarantee it was genuine- the chinese are using genuine 4gb SanDisk cards and then re-branding and re-coding them as 32gb, the card thinks it's a 32gb, reports that it's a 32gb card but obviously runs out of room and has errors as soon as you try to put stuff on it).
not just eBay some can be found on amazon i got two from amazon and had get a refund kept losing mp3s and pics so tested with h2testw_1.4and lost 28gb
so get this and test if you have probs

I thought that the maximum allowed for Desire was 16 gb. Mine is 16 gb (Samsung), with good data transfer performance. By the way, in your situation I would go for Samsung.

Samsung MICRO SD Plus 16 GB, HC Class10

Write (MB/s) 21
while more expensive card
Transcend micro SD 16GB HC Class 10
