Good Quality MicroSD 16Gb - Class 6

Hey everyone,
I've been looking for a Class 6 16Gb microSD and I've just had one delivered from Amazon.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110605484160&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
£20.85 and it is closer to a Class 10 than a Class 6.
Just thought I'd share my find!
Sent from my DHD

cheers mate, gonna order one today. i have a 32gb class 6, but it has been giving me problems. DHD keeps unmounting sd card and then when sd card mounts again it says Read Only sd card. I think the sd card is faulty because other sd cards work fine.

I've had issues with cheap cards in the past, but this seems really good.
It's a totally unbranded card, but the card test window using H2testw on eBay is spot on. 9.85Mb/s write speed is very quick for a Class 6, almost a Class 10.

I ordered one around 10th November on their website along with PHILIPS headphones and I received only the headphones . Last Friday I contacted them just to check if they have sent the memory card and still waiting for an answer. This is the first time something I bought over the internet is not delivered. I guess they should've used some kind of tractable service for their international deliveries. It doesn't cost that much more and the customer is paying for the postage anyway...

I have been using a Samsung Plus, it's a shame they don't do it in a 16Gb version it's a really nice card, very fast and quite unique looking.

Can anyone post another link the product list has ended on the link provided

Does anyone have opinion regarding this card:

Wow, and I have thought that kingston is the best. Even if you shell money for kingston it appears it;s not problem proof.
Btw, is there real difference between stock model and 6th or higher class in playing movies or reading large documents?

Yes you do notice a different in files loading up from sd card not so on films and quicker in transfer of files from pc to phone.

I've got a strange 4gb card lying around in my house...no one knows where it came from lol. Anyways, in Windows, it writes at around 20mb/s average. Reading speeds are around 50mb/s...very strange. I don't use it because I now have a 16gb class 4...which writes around 4 mb/s....the 4gb says Class 4 on it but it's 5 times faster than that!

16gb MicroSDHC class 10 on sale

Just bought it via Newegg it will come in about week.
Will post results. Stay tuned.

Copy all important data/pics/backups to a computer! Once SD memory goes, its gone for good mostly.
I'm way too paranoid about flash memory failure to spend more than 50ish on a microSD card.
Last time my 16GB SD card crapped out on me, and I lost lots of pictures and videos from a trip.
As far as 16GB class 10, it could be nice depending on the price....

Ordered, thanks.

Class is just the minimum the data transfer's are rated to run at, not the maximum that the actual card can run. So my Class 2 could run at Class 6 speeds, but not garaunteed to do so.
Thanks for the great link though, gonna grab one!

This one is working fine for me so far. I got it for $23.50 when it was on sale, been using it for a week or two now.
ps- I took a chance based on the reviews, but the price was right and it hasn't given me any problems, yet.

Keyword: Yet. I know I know, But I'm a skeptic. I trust A-data because I've purchased their products before. By the looks of it, it seems that specific card seems to break down quicker than others...

I honestly don't think a lot of these high class less quality SD cards are worth it. As mentioned earlier in this thread, the class is only minimum. It also doesn't take into consideration the longevity of the card. I bought the 32gb patriot (Class 10) from new egg and it totally when bad on me after 3 weeks. I lost some important info (backup up most). Was able to luckily return it just under the 4 week limit newegg has for returns. Not to mention the speed was really no different that I could notice compared to the stock SD card. I'm probably going to get the Sandisk soon since it's the only brand that I trust.

Im looking to get a new 32g sd card whats the best one to get. I've been using my 8g sd card for about 2 years now I never had problems just want a 32g.

I bought the 32gb that Verizon sells today for $99. It was regularly $149 but its on sell right now. Its still kind of pricey, but I really like it. Doesn't slow anything down, and now I can put more music and movies on my phone. You can get the same card on Ebay for around $65 right now. It's a SanDisk brand and Ive always had good luck with them.

I need a 32gb my 16 is full I keep having to delete old stuff and store it on my computer. I want to keep everything on my phone.

[TODAY ONLY] Sale - 32 GB/64 GB SanDisk MicroSD Cards [TODAY ONLY]

This has apparently been posted in other sub forums but decided to post this here as well for those of you that do not go out of the "Skyrocket" section.
Amazon currently has their "Gold Box Deal of The Day" for up to 70% off of SanDisk products!
$22.99 - SanDisk Ultra 32 GB microSDHC Class 10 UHS-1 Memory Card 30MB/s with Adapter SDSDQUA-032G-U46A
$43.49 - SanDisk Ultra 64 GB microSDXC Class 10 UHS-1 Memory Card 30MB/s with Adapter SDSDQUA-064G-U46A
I will be grabbing me a 64 GB, these are some great prices so upgrade your SD cards now if you have not already, perfect time to pick one up!

Getting myself a 64GB. $43.50 shipped, can't beat that!

T.J. Are you going to use the 64MB card in a Skyrocket? I read that the specs were max 32MB, but that may have been the largest available at release time...
If you do use it in a SR, I'd be curious to know how it works

Honestly, it'll probably end up in a different phone. That said, the card will work in Skyrockets.

Thanks for the heads up Bone! I'm only getting the 32, my 16 not full but this is too good of a price to pass up... This will last me till the 64's become around $20...lol

I've been using that 64gb card in my skyrocket for months now, so I can verify that it works. I bought it knowing that I'll be moving over to the Note 2 and it supports 64gb cards.
To get the 64gb card working I had to format to fat32 using these instructions: http://www.simonjstuart.com/2012/07/06/format-a-64gb-microsdxc-card-for-android-using-your-pc/

Damn, if only I had $43 right now. My 32 is plenty anyways but that sure is a nice price.

Sweet. Thanks for the head's up.

Deal over, well unless you want to save 63% off a Rug Doctor Mighty Pro by paying $300 then go hog wild, not sure how well it will work with the Skyrocket, but your carpets will be clean as all hell.

just got mine in the mail..format went ok but now is stuck and cant be ejected...any clues...spring is not working..i was able to eject the 32 gig that was in there plenty of times...any help...thanks

SD Card for S5

Now that CM allows my S5 to use the SD as internal storage I need a bigger one. I want a fast one within the bounds of this phone so I'm not paying for tech I cannot use. I listen to music and store some pictures but a lot of that is cloud based. Thanks!

This Sandisk 64GB sd card is pretty fast. for ~$20, cant go wrong.

There's a 200gb on Amazon for 79

Ah thats the fella I have in mine.

If you need insane amounts of storage, you really CANNOT go wrong with a Samsung one:
https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Clas...id=1469114722&sr=1-1&keywords=Samsung+sd+card

I agree with Lightning here, the Samsung EVO is the best bang for the buck. This is what I have in my phone:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00P3NMVVU/
Works flawlessly.
If you want something faster (for say shooting HD video), there is the EVO+ and the EVO Select as well:

dont get the 200 gb one as the phone is limited to 128 and wont be able to use 1/3rd of it. I use a class U1 PNY 128 gb card and its pretty snappy. I got it for $35 on amazon during the last cyber monday event, but they might even be cheaper now. Id just read the reviews on amazon for 128 gb cards. There are many people who buy them just to test them and theyll list their real world results in a transfer speed rating

I presume you mean 256 or whatever it is. I've the 64 gig one. Seems grand. I'm only new back on android after a few years on iPhone. 64 is plenty for me . 128 would be cool just to show off. We don't have cyber sales here in Ireland that I know of.

No. The 200 gig card is what I was referring to. What I said also applies to a 256 or anything above 128 really as the phone cannot read anything higher than 128. Yes, 200 gb is a strange storage size for a SD card, but a 200 GB card does exist

i think this limitations is because there was no more than 128 GB at the time of it's release but in theory it can handle up to 2 TB
even though there is no 2 TB micro SD Card yet, since it supports SDXC

I understand why! Sadly they are not available in my country yet, so I bought a 32GB Samsung EVO+ Class 10 UHS-1, and now I don't get the "your SD card is slow" when formatting as adoptable, which I got with a class 10.

Samsung said that the S2 couldn't take any more than 32GB yet in fact it supported 64GB. So, it doesn't mean much what they say.

That's a fair point, but I just haven't seen anyone confirm the over 128 GB cards working and I'd hate for a guy to buy one and it only recognize 128 because they're stupid 'spensive!!

can confirm that the S5 has no issues with a 200GB microsd....SDXC class 10....although after formatting, only 186GB available.....

Not sure if anyone has done it yet, but I just pounced on and ebay auction for a 256gb evo+. If there is any intrest in a definitive answer to whether it is compatible or not, I will post back in about a week when I get it. As mentioned above, it should work being sdxc. Wish me luck!
