are the new microsdch cards compatible with the touch pro
I've never heard of those, but micro sdhc cards work fine , I'm using an 8mb one
i think sdhc cards are min 4GB dont think anybody feel that 8MB cards are that high capacity
i dunno....it's pretty high capacity for something smaller than my little fingernail
I'm about to purchase a microsd for my HTC Touch pro and i'm between :
Kingston 8gb SDHC class 4
http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?i=170972
and
SanDisk 8gb SDHC class 2
http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?i=158255
and
Expansys 8gb SDHC class 2
http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?i=164646
Now the question is will the HTC support any of the 3 and why the heck is the class 4 kingston lower cost than the other two seeing as its supposed to be faster ? :/
Dunno. Kingston are usually cheaper than sandisk anyway, and i wouldn't touch Expansys' own brand stuff with a bargepole.
Oh and yeah, it should work fine.

Yep, they'll all work. Go for the Kingston. Class 4 is indeed faster. Probably cheaper because it's newer stock (you can tell from the Expansys stock code).
Expansys never seem to reduce prices on accessories like these. They go in at a certain price, and stay at the same price 'til they're all gone. By the way, hold out for a couple of weeks (hopefully?) and you should be able to pick up a 16Gb MicroSD for about £50...
Oh, and if you hit Google, you can usually find a £10 Expansys voucher knocking around for purchases over £20...
EDIT: Just looked at the links, The SanDisk one is Class 4 as well, so I'd probably go for that one, as they're the same price, and I've had loads of flawless SanDisk cards over the years...

Yeap noticed that aswell i'm changing the order to the Sandisk one
Yep sandisk ones are spot on, see if you can get one that includes the free red and black USB reader aswell, great little accessory.
Remember to format it with FAT32

Yeah, Expansys are kinda expensive. Try mobymemory, I've always had an excellent experience with them.

8GB Class 4 SanDisk WITH card reader, loads cheaper. Plus when they say it's in stock, you can be pretty certain that it actually is.
Hi, regarding the different speed classes of the micro sdhc cards:
Does it always make sense to use the fastest card and does this really affect the performance according the cards speed class?
I mean does anybody know about the maximum speed of the card interface of the touch pro? I'm thinking to buy the SanDisk Ultra (class 6)
Within the device itself, the class of the card won't matter too much. A class 4 is probably comparable to a class 6, and certainly wont make a difference when it comes to playing mp3s or viewing pictures. But a class 6 card will certainly make file transfers faster on to/off of the card using a PC (best results if you use a separate usb/card adapter and not "disk mode" on your Touch Pro).
For reference, I'm using A-DATA Class 6 8gb MicroSDHC, works perfectly and no errors. Available for $31 at Newegg (if you're in US).
sandisk class 4 sdhc microsd 8 GB is the fastest at the moment and you can get it for 33 euro.. works fantastic..
Looking to purchase a class 6 16gb microsd for my N1 today but which is the best one on amazon.com to purchase? I see a couple of different brands, any recommendations?
I bought a TOPRAM 16 GB Class 6 card and so far it has worked. I don't have much experience with SD/Micro SD cards so I can't say anything about it's performance, but it's worked good for me so far.
Please mention prices too..

I bought a Topram 16 GiB Class 6 from Amazon for about $35, and it has worked beautifully. Sadly, though, transfer speeds via USB are still the same as the stock Class 2 (maybe a hair faster), so the limit is the interface itself. If I use the card in a reader, it's much faster, so it's not the card. This makes me think that the phone can't even utilize a faster card, as some others have insinuated on this forum.

My class 6 card gets over 4mb/s write speeds... but in my G1 it wouldn't get over 2mb/s. I thought this was resolved on the N1...
I've never heard of Topram...is it a reliable company?
hi i'm after a 16gb memory card but don't know what class to get, as cheap as possible but it must be from a well known manufacturer
Probably doesn't matter what anyone says - whichever brand person X stands behind, somenoe else will say it failed on them and to go for brand Y.
Having said that, I have a 16gb Kingston class 2 which has been perfect, cost about £25 or so when I got it. Recently picked up the same but a class 10. That one was about £80 including shipping as I wanted to see the speed difference, etc.
Not sure what others people will swear by. I don't swear by Kingston, but I have yet to have one go bad on me...

And was the Class 10 worth it for speed?
I've used both Kingston and Sandisk in the past - and currently have a 8GB Class 6 Sandisk in my desire. It's been just fine.
I'd like to make the leap to a 32GB card, but I'm slightly concerned the Class 2 one available might have issues. (Although I've read many contradicting posts on that subject too!)
@TractorMatty
Between an older 16gig class 2 and the 16gig class 10 yes - galleries rendered much quicker, seemed more responsive, etc.
But between a class 6 and a class 10... meh. Not worth it at the moment.
Does it matter what class you get? Because so far I can only find a 16bg class for over just £20.
Using Team Group 16GB microSDHC Class 6.
Got it from ebay
Go for Classe 6 it's almost like a C10, but cheaper (and you won't really notice any difference).

And you won't with a decent Class 2 either!
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Well, i can tell the diff between my shipped in Desire's Samsung 4G Classe 2 and my previous Sandisk 8G Classe 4... My Classe 4 is faster.
I got a 8gb class 4 Kingston.. its fast enough for me...
Sent from my Desire using XDA App
I took the risk and tried the 32gb, online for $40au... failed miserably and still scarred by the copious time spent trying to copy, format, reformat, copy... with most ending up in the lost.dir (except for 1.2gb that ended up working).
Since then, have got a 16gb SanDisk. It's only a Class 2, but haven't had any issues with speed whether it be reading or writing. Avi's play in sync... Good bang for the buck.
Mind you, I only went for SanDisk because they were always good to me in the standard SD days, but have heard plenty of good word on Kingston and Lexar.
32gb on ebay are 75% fakes.
I just got my Kingston 16gb Class 10 card. Do you guys think my card reader's speed is maxed out and it might be able to go faster than this?
I'll be getting THIS ONE when they get it back in stock.
Well, just got a Kingston 16Gb class 10 and can't use it, because it's defective .
But I'm not blaming Kingston, it can happen with any brand and I'm gonna exchange it... Hopefully I have a Sandisk 16Gb class 2, a not-very-fast-but-working-SD-card....

very respectable web site. selling genuine items
*Link Removed* As listing was taken down.
20 bucks USD.
bought one and going to see if it is up to spec.
$20 for a class 6 32Gb card? At that price it has got to be a fake.
Probably fake or off the back of a lorry...but if it works as advertised...would I care???nope
Let us know how it performs. If it's anything close to class 6 it might be worth it for $20
That is incredibly tempting, but 184 sold so far and no feedback left. Sadly, previous Ebay experience has taught me that offers that look too good to be true are usually the ones that end up in paypal disputes.
There is no way you can get a genuine 32GB microSDHC and specially not class 6 for 20$.
The listing was removed so it was most likely fake.
These cards usually only have about 2GB or similar in capacity but are made to look like 32GB. As you try to fill more than what the card can handle the content becomes corrupted.
Listing removed, so there's no point in continuing discussion on this one.

I saw that that Class 10 but KomputerBay had a lot of hit and miss reviews of the SD cards for not performing well.

Ah yes for Komputerbay memory, but if you read closely, it is a Samsung Micro SD card, and a Komputerbay ADAPTER. The Card is Samsung memory though.
And, Komputerbay really isn't involved mcuh because
