Hey guys, I searched but didn't see this in the Epic forums. Wanted to get it posted asap because it made the front page of slickdeals not too long ago so it could sell out before long.
Amazon has a 32gb Lexar Class 10 microSD with a card reader for $47 and free shipping. It is sold by Tiger Direct through Amazon. Alternatively, you can go straight to Tiger Direct's website to purchase it for the same price.
*** 11/11/11 Update - Deal is dead through Amazon currently but I checked the Tiger Direct link and it still has the $47.99 price.
*** 12/16/11 Update - Amazon currently has this for $40.77 with Prime Eligibility and Tiger Direct has it for $69.99 - $30.00 Instant Savings = $39.99. Shipping shows up at $2.70 for me bringing the total to $42.69 through TD (YMMV).

Great Deal...Just Got Mine!! Different Brand,etc. For 41 plus tax, sold out quick.
Hard to Get Deals, if you Find One, Dont Hesitate...
Great deal, just bought a Class 4 Sandisk 32GB recently for like $36 so this is priced about right
And I assume from the response that the Epic will recognize and fully utilize a 32 GB card?

Isn't the read/write speed on these phones capped, so would it even really make a difference if I got the Class 4 vs the Class 10. No point in spending another $11 if I don't have to.
I've got my eye on a Patriot and a PNY 32gb for about the same price, just caught up in which brand has a better reputation.

32 GB cards
Are these cards coming down in price finally. I looked a while back and they were 100 or more. Also are these the true 32 gig cards(been burned a few times from ebay, even a local seller). I want to find one of these to go along with my extended battery(take that Iphone.)

I have as well, and both make reliable devices. I'm leaning towards the Patriot because all my Patriot USB drives are blazing fast, whereas my PNY drives are just eh on speed.
Thanks for posting.

Has anyone used this card for a decently long time? Interested to know if it spontaneously corrupted or not
Deal is back and better than it was previously. 7 bucks cheaper I think.
I bought this card when I posted the OP and have been using it ever since. I have had no problems with it at all and I'm thinking I might get another one for my Nook Color.
If there's a speed difference on the laptop that makes backing up your SD way less painfully long.
Read the reviews in the Amazon link? A few people complained of corruption and dead cards within weeks or months of purchase. This worries me a bit.

I want a Class 6 one. But I think over $50 on newegg is too expensive.
8GB for $15-20 on newegg... and the 16GB is double in space but more than double in price.
Where'd you get your 16GB Class 6 and how much?
Newegg ... $55-$60.

Yeah, Adata is the one I got, just couldn't remember the price exactly.
in one of these SD card threads, someone posted their result that a class 2 was just as fast as a class 6 for USB transfers. Do we really need class 6? can our phones even utilize the faster speed?
i'm with minty on this. you won't rly notice the difference. i've been using a class 2 sandisk 16gb since the day it was released about a year and a half ago. I don't regret spending that money at all, it's been with me with the g1, and now the nexus. File transfers are plenty fast and it hasn't skipped a heartbeat. I've had some dud flash memory cards in the past and they have all been cheaper cards. all of my transcend and sandisk cards are still going strong after years of use, so just go for one of those imho.

The throughput of USB transfer might only be <2mb/sec max, but that's not necessarily the same for the internal bus transfer speeds.
I imagine, internally, it's faster. Even if it isn't, (IMO) a Class6 is more "future proof".

Holy crap, the 16gb AData card I got from Newegg I've had for awhile just filled up. It said it was 15.9gb out of 16gb but when I counted up all the files on the sd card they totalled just below 4gb.
I'm surprised Newegg would be selling fakes.

nope, but if that feature is in the first beta release of cm-6 then I will try it and let you know since i'll get overly excited as usual and install it right away.

Use coupon code EMCJKJJ45 to bring it down to $55. Pretty decent price for a class 10 chip from a known manufacturer.
Edit: Varying write benchmarks on Newegg and Amazon. Some are hitting class 10 speeds, some aren't. YMMV.
Awesome! Thanks for 2sharing
Just be careful and make sure its genuine, I have heard a lot of stuff about fake cards claiming to be class 10.
Whereas if you go for a good brand it might actually perform better.
I have a sandisk, 32gb, class 4, and i have 20 gb of music of my sensation, it works perfectly, better then my ipod touch! So I wouldnt pay much attention to the class but more to the quality of the card.
Granted the write speed is slow, took me a long time to get the 20gb of music on, but reading speed is somewhere around 10 to 16 mbps, and thats from a class 4!
This one is legit- got suckered in some ebay buys of fake cards, went ahead and bought this one a while back from NewEgg and never looked back. PNY is a good brand. I use this one currently and have had no issues .
Ordered one...
I put in my order at Newegg this morning. Coupon code worked. Unfortunately, since I live in California, I had to pay sales tax so it cost me $3.99 extra
Yep, I bought this card from newegg. It is legit!

I got the email promotion and bought it as soon as I saw it lol. Got it in the mail yesterday. Noticable space and performance improvement from the stock 8 gb card. Everything that is on the sd card loads much faster now. This card may not be a high end class 10 card but it is that of a high end class 6 card which should be good enough for phone usage. You will be able to record hd with this card just fine. I've been waiting for it to be instock and on sale since the day i have my Sensation lol. Gotta love new egg.
How can i buy this card from Europe ? The Newegg don't send to Europe.
later edit: meantime i bought from Amazon, they send to Europe
Good price, thanks for shared
Unfortunately my stock 8gb card died. Contemplating between this or the 16gb class 10.
This one (DMY 32GB class 10), at this price, is fantastic. I already put it in my Sensation and the phone is flying (like a pig) with 32 GB. My laptop geting jealous. I warmly recommend it !
I have a 16gb PNY in my Sensation and I have to say I am disappointed with the performance of a so called class 10 card. SD Tools reports write speeds of <8MB/s which is no better than the 8GB Kingston class 4 (though seems to be under rated) that come bundled with the Sensation. Alarmingly, that falls below the 10MB/s minimum for a class 10.
Is SD Tools a reliable app?

It should work. But honestly, get the Amazon Basics Class 10 16GB microSD card. Faster and just as reliable. If it is available in your country that is.

It looks like a good deal for me. It will work well for the phone and it is good if it's not a counterfeited one. Sandisk MicroSD are known to be counterfeited a lot, especially on eBay.
Btw, you don't need a class 10 card. For whatever you do with your phone, you don't need to write in 10MB/s. 1080p video from the G2, for example, has a bit rate of only 2.5MB/s.
edit: I found the same microSD, sold by the same merchant, and cheaper at Amazon UK

The cheapest seller (currently Onebo, selling at £15) has only a 3.5/5 star rating, only 25% positive review. Some of the buyers complain that the microSD doesn't even have a Sandisk logo. I am not quite sure you want to buy from this seller.
I really recommend clicking the "63 new" line, them scroll down choosing Amazon UK as a seller. It's more expensive, but you're sure that you don't buy a fake card.
Regarding 64GB and class 10, it's totally your choice. 64 GB sure can store lots of stuff, and you can copy (from the computer) to the card quite fast.
In the other hand, 64GB class 10 card is about 3-4 times more expensive than the 32GB class 4 counter part. Not the most cost efficient option. In additional, the phone won't be able to utilize the class 10 bandwidth in most of your daily activities.

The only two manufacturers that make 64GB cards are Kingmax (who built the card in the first place) and SanDisk (who doesn't make anything above a Class 6), and neither cards are Class 10. I'm actually pretty pleased with the 64GB card in my Doubleshot.

Samsung 16GB class 10 for £17.
4EXT backs up 3 times quicker than the supplied Samsung 8GB class 2,
GTA3 1.1 is a bit smoother when driving quickly
It appears the UI and system apps that touch the SD are a bit more snappy. ie, gallery.
They do a 32GB bit I think the max speeds are a bit lower.

About dealextreme: buying from that site is pretty much a hit-and-miss. I have actually bought a lot of stuff from there. They're cheap, but also terribly slow at shipping. They also don't usually have goods in stock, and they backorder from the suppliers. NEVER buy there if you are in hurry, never.
Especially about memory cards, you never know if you're gonna get a genuine or a fake item. They just seem to ship whatever they have in stock. You might be lucky or not
Just buy from Amazon if you can. I have bought a Samsung 16GB class 10 for my Desire Z for 20€, and the increase in speed while loading the gallery is noticeable.

i never have problems because i watch the reviews to see whats real and what isn't and if price isn't the issue and its over a certain amount i just use Prime and get it the next day.

And you can on any amount as long as prime is available but i'm not paying 4$ for overnight shipping on something like a micro sd card or something stupid though. that i can wait plus if you have prime you get free 2 day shipping

Buy.com has 32GB MicroSD cards on sale for $19-$30 depending on the brand. I bought mine on sale at RadioShack for $29.95, but I didn't know about this deal. I have the SanDisk. I'm not sure if the cheaper Toshiba cards are compatible with the Epic.
Edit: Apparently, I can't link to the site. Anti-spam rules. No big. Google knows all.

Capacity Formatted in all is 14.8GB so 15GB so close enough for me.
And for 19.99$; That's a 16GB Class 10 and hits those speeds i'm thinking its pretty good if you ask me.

Are you UK based or not?
If you are in the U.K try 7dayshop.com or mymemory.co.uk or picstop.co.uk, I have been using them for years and in the respect of 7dayshop, their own brand is also trustworthy.

Good call, was going to recommend 7day also! :highfive:
Their 64GB micro sdcard is only £22, but out of stock at the moment, their 32GB card is also reasonable at £13.
I would only buy a card on Amazon if it was "SOLD" and "FULFILLED" by Amazon.
I would not buy one that was only fulfilled by Amazon.
Never from eBAY.
I bought a 128GB card from Amazon. -> Amazing...

local stores are best. However they don't have all sd cards you can find on the internet, but they have class 10, 6, 4 and 2 sd cards.
I have bought a class 6 16gb for 20 euro, samsung mark, never had problems with it. Only one time the partition was damaged (RAW partition), fortunately I could recover my data with TestDisk
I bought this one (32GB) a week ago and it's working great with a one year warranty. Also available in other sizes in this same link. Plus it's inexpensive and brand name. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FIYF0OE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Hi
I bought a samsung pro 64gb sdxc from ebay member ''evelectron_tech''
Seems to be good store but will see.
I bought a 64GB on amazon through a partner and was burned with an 8GB fake. Even if the card "works" you need to fill it up AND test the files to see if it works. Amazon did refund promptly and I settled on a more reputable seller on Amazon (SoCal Trade). Reviews are your friend, and if it's too new to have any reviews, avoid.
Go to bestbuy and for a few dollars more you can get the sandisk 128gb which is out now. Works beautifully on our S4

How much is the 128GB one?
I got mine for 115.
I recommend
Samsung Electronics 16/32/64GB EVO Micro SDHC 48MB/s Class 10 Memory Card (MB-MP32DA/AM)
I'd get this one:
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/con...CKqu_TXKRWJYG1hoCet3w_wcB&Q=&is=REG&A=details
they've got that car in stock cheaper than anywhere and have close to 160,000 positive feedback left and 5 stars. That's a LOT of positive feedback
They're B&H Photography, you can see em on this list:
https://www.google.com/shopping/pro...3&sa=X&ei=TvPJU7DoENK7oQT_u4GIDw&ved=0CFwQ6SQ
but that is the fastest microSD in the world. 50% faster than Sandisk's next fastest. It's likely my next one. Consistent speed of 45 read and write. with bursts of 80 reading, 50 writing

I second this... bought the same one. Works well
apparently Toshiba released a competition-destroying MicroSD. So far all I can see is it appears to be called simply UHS-II. While every other of the top MicroSD cards are UHS-I, this one easily deserves the UHS-II designation. While the previous Title-holders were just shy of 50MB/s. This one in it's 32GB form is 260MB/s read and 240MB/s write. The 64, while significantly slower, is still much faster than the rest, reading at 145MB/s and writing at 130MB/s. Quite impressive. But I can't find a model $ or anywhere selling it
but here's the report on it:
