Don't know if this is a repost but its a hell of a deal. I bought 2 SanDisk Memory card class 4 (better performance on mobile devices) for only $30.00 a piece from Amazon.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003HIWHN0/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details
Amazon also has a Lenovo Class 10 for 39.99 swell. Sorry don't know where the link is. I just got both of my 32gb n so far so good. Very happy, might get a third this Friday for my 7"Asus when it comes out this summer. You're welcome in advance.
Thanks for sharing bro.
I plan on getting a sensation within a few weeks to replace my MyTouch3G Slide and am doing homework for ROMs and Kernels when I happened upon this thread... I live on newegg.com. I am ordering some Class 10 32gig Micro SDHC's for 39 USD free shipping... Just an FYI
I just checked it on my favourite tracking site. It looks like is is$26ish+shipping now, but here is the tracker:

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.

Always good to know about wintec vs. Scandisk. Will make sure to order those instead.

Just ordered one for 30 bucks off Newegg. 32GBs, Class 4. I'd rather buy from them then a seller out of Amazon. I like Amazon, but have had bad experiences when it comes to smaller, third party sellers. Paid 6 bucks to ship it in 3 days.
I'm buying one ...... !!!

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 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
Just wondering....

For the money, the above poster is right, nothing beats zero, lol.
However, the higher the class the faster the card. Right now 32gb class 10s are around 90 or so. Just make sure to get name brand (Kingston, sandisk, etc) and read reviews.
Most new phones include a class 2 card. If you get anything above class 4 you may have to change the SD card read ahead buffer, at least on the HTC evo (stock is 64, 128-256 is preferred, and as high as 512 for a class 10), to get full benefit of the higher speed capability.
Hope this makes sense.

Yeah but you got to think ahead into the future. Most people don't last the entire two years with the same phone, at least i don't. One year and im already switching it up. Next phone can probably do more so it's always good to have.
I'd like to try to keep this phone for three years. That's my goal. It's a great phone.

I don't know if it would make much difference,but I guess that would depend on how fast you need to write to the card.
The other issue is whether the phone would support higher write speeds anyway.
If you can afford it,you could always buy one and try it.

In my experience, the random read / write sores are the most important when using in a phone for ruining apps and such. My class 4 SanDisk totally outperforms my class 10 card.

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

As mentioned in the hq camera mod thread. Class 10 sdcard is required.. Samsung class 10 has good reviews.

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!

That's odd, the sandisk works just fine in mine.
As low as $62 on Amazon right now. I got mine for $53. You gotta watch for price breaks.

$53 is a darn good price. I got a SanDisk 64GB Mobile Ultra MicroSDXC on a best buy daily deal for $49 about a month ago. Doesn't look like they even carry it now on their site, but Amazon has it for $82.
I bought one of the eBay 16.99 ones. We'll see what and if I get something.

Better check the the actual size of that card. On SD cards it is possible to fake the card so it reports a larger size than the card actually is.
You might look at this URL http://flashchiptech.wordpress.com/...ownload-to-check-flash-drives-and-memory-car/
Also it is best to format SD cards with a dedicated formatter. I like SDformatter
Also a good test program is H2testw See this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=730285

Are you letting it do the default ('exFAT") format in Windows/7? You don't want that, although it works with the Samsung ROM, it won't work with Cyanomod unless you format it as "FAT32" instead. You can use the command-line switches or there's a "FAT32 Gui" program somewhere around here - I can't seem to put my fingers on the link right now, but I found it within the past few days. If you can, use the phone to format it instead of a PC, that always insures FAT32. ("exFAT" isn't supported by CYM because of the funky licensing Microsoft has for exFAT)
Aside from card size, doesnt card speed play a factor in whether these 64gb cards will work? Isnt the appropriate question "what is the best deal on a 64gb class 10 SD card that actually works"?
