Hello everyone.
Do any of you use a 32GB sized SDHC card in your Ace? I know it's supposed to support it, but I'd love to hear your experiences.
BTW: Which brand of SDHC cards do you recommend? I'm planning to buy a class 10 card with at least 16GB space this week, and I'd appreciate your input.

I would prioritise Class rating over size anytime especially when you talk about capacity over 8GB.
I prefer Sandisk for personal reasons.

Yeah, I wrote in my OP, that I'm gonna buy a class 10, as high read/write speeds are what I'm after, followed by a decent size(at least 8GB).

I am leaning more towards Kingston 16GB class 10 micro SDHC, 'cause I've had nothing but good experiences with their products.
Thank you all...

Would a 8gb class 6 sdhc card be ok to use in the HD2?
or has the phone not got the capabilities to deal with a class 6 card etc?
my current standard 2gb is to small and i take a LOT of pics and vids.....quality of pics and vids still be reasonable with a class 6 8gb?
any help, much appreciated
cheers

Yes, the HD2 can use 8GB Clas 6 cards. I use one on mine.

Of course.Transcend 8GB Class 6 works fine to my Leo.No problem at all.
I currently have a stock 8GB class 2 in the phone and i'm thinking of getting a class 6. I'm pretty much using 7 out of 8GB so i can manage it but it's getting rather close.
The 16GB one would cost me almost 60€ and that's a lot! The 8GB one would be only about 19€.
I didn't try ebay, maybe i could find something there. But given the price difference i think i'll stick with 8GB, what do you think?
The main reason i post here is to ask if there's going to be a NOTICEABLE difference in opening a gallery full of pictures, and picture saving time after taking a shot with the camera?
The HD recording is just a plus here, i just want the galery/shots taking to be faster. Anyone with experience?
thanks
EDIT: ok i've found this one on ebay and it has a USB reader so that i can still use my class 2 8gb as a usb stick so that's a money saver.
I've never had any experience with this company "Team", are their cards any good?
I bought a Kingston 16GB class 10
Not a big deal, almost the same performance!

Well I bought it from eshop.gr and paid it 99 euros, it's 100% original but the phone itself can't handle faster chips, the difference is not that much, you might consider buying a 4 class which is by far cheaper!
i think i'll just get a class 6 8gb for 20$ and stick with that, that way i'll just use my old class 2 8gb in an adapter as a memory stick

Configure "app to SD" then you will notice the difference. For normal use, class 2 is more than enough.

for normal use, it sucks! i need to wait at least one minute for the gallery to open because of all my photos, isn't that because of a slow SD card? correct me if i'm wrong...
Be carefull when buying SD cards from Ebay. I bought an 8GB class 6 card once (no brand, from Hong Kong) and it turned out it's not really class 6 at all, more like class 2 or 4 (low transfer speeds). The class 6 card that came with my X10 is a true class 6 card (transfer speed of 6 MB/s).
I'm not saying all SD cards on Ebay are fake, but alot probably are (fake as in not the class they advertise).
heh, i already ordered one
it's from a top rated seller so i hope it'll be ok
thanks for the heads up
I have a class 6 16 gig, i did have a class 4 8 gig and i could not play need for speed as the game would freeze. now the game plays no problem with the class 6 card.
what does an SD card have anything to do with it?

it took about a month to come but it was worth the wait...very good quality and you can re-use youre current 8gb class 2 as a usb stick
Hope this hasn't already been posted, figured it was a pretty good deal.
64GB Sandisk
Thank you so much for posting this deal! I surfed through my wallet and through all of the left over best buy gift cards I had I ended up with a free 64gb microsdxc! This was an amazing deal to begin with, but you just cant beat that!
Nice, not to bad at all. Glad you got one!
Don't forget to reformat the card in your phone - or else it won't work.
I've had mine for 4 months I think? It's great - I love it. I won't be able to live with less memory ever again - which will be a problem with most of the next gen phones seemingly going away from memory cards.

I'm not sure, but I don't think so yet (64gb).
This link shows benchmark pics of a class 10 16gb vs. SanDisk class 6 64gb, and the SanDisk is actually faster than the class 10 card.

I wish I knew what brand that class 10 card was. It's garbage. I just ran that tool thrice and my average read/write was 10.9/4.9MB/s respectively with a Class 4 SanDisk 32MB. That said, I'm also pretty pissed I paid 65 dollars for this card when I could have gotten better speed and more powahhhh for not much more if I waited. FML.
In case anyone doesn't know, the class rating on these cards is the minimum write speed the card will achieve, provided you're not copying a movie from a USB 1.0 PC or something else that would bottleneck it.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA
To be fair you can't go with the read/write on a card unless you test empty. My 32GB card surpasses the Class 10 it is if empty but get near full and it' just below a Class 6. So the tests mean absolutely nothing unless you are testing with an almost full card. It's time I moved to a 64GB card my 32GB is too full with the games on it.. LOL

I ran my tests without removing any files and it still exceeded the write speed for it's class. My card has 20GB free of the 30GB available.

Both the brands are awesome....But class 4 is obviously better than class 2 for android....My Sandisk 16 Gb Class 4 MicSD gives a read speed of about 14 MB/sec and write speed of 5-6 MB/sec......
SanDisk is more known, also class 4 is faster.
Sent from my Xperia Live using xda premium.
hmm, but transcend normally cost more than sandisk here, class 2 transcend 16gb is almost at the same price on sandisk 16gb class 4 so i thought transcend has more quality than sandisk,
I personaly use also 16gb class 2 trascend about 3 years already without any problem first in SE elm now in my mini. But my opinion when you buy new is buy even faster or maybe even biger coz lifetime microsd is great and you can use it in many phones. Anyway speed in phone is for any action enouhg for me now and never got any problem with memory from trascend (i using from trascend now microsd,normal sd, ram, flash disc)
Sent from my ST15i using XDA
Guys don't forget that the speed class only describes the write speed of the card.
Most cards, I mean even class 2, are fast enough at reading speed for usual use.
For good writing performence you should buy a class 10 card even if the price is higher.
Its a big difference copying for example 700 mb with 10 mb or only 2 mb writing speed.

I agree! I had a Kingston 8Gb class 4 and then I bought one Samsung 8Gb CLASS 10 and I was amazed. Copying series, movies, backups and Roms to my phone is really fast.

Forget brands, its the class that matters
Well I went over to the accessories section and found threads on this...they are REALLY serious about this stuff there....the bottom line here, and in other fora is that the San Disk Class 4 is perhaps the best out there. People claim (and show pictures proving) that it has beaten higher class SD cards. I went for this one and am very happy...it beats expectations. I agree it's mostly more about class rather than brand, but brand can affect things sometimes.
I bought a Kingston 16MB class 4 for my x10mp, and the phone kept hanging up. Sent it back as a defect and got another one, but I had the same problem with that one, too. Sent it back for a refund. Bought a Sandisk 16MB class 4 and haven't had any problems with it. I'm not sure about the '11 xmp, but brand did matter on my old phone.

i am thinking of ADATA 8GB Class 10 Micro SDHC Flash Card with SD adaptor Model AUSDH8GCL10-RA1, for my sk17i. It has good reviews on newegg. What yall think? Also how the process of changing sd cards goes, i mean i just simply copy everything from sd card that came with sk17i, to new sd card, via windows explorer or what?

Hi,
Could you recommend me a good SD card for Samsung Galaxy S3 with high speed and low to average price. Preferable capacity is 16 to 32GB.
Also I want to see your opinion on these 3 brands; SanDisk, Samsung and Kingston
Thanks!

I can report the same. I've got a 16GB SanDisk Ultra microSD for about 1 and a half years.
If you buy SDs, look for those Class 10 ones. Those are the fast ones. Don't use SDs below Class 6, as they reduce the whole performance of your phone.

Thank you arj8 and Leevee33.
I would like to see some posts about the other brands, because Sandisk is a little bit expensive. I am thinking on buying this one; MicroSDHC 16GB EVO Memory Card (Sorry I am a new user, so I cannot post any links)

I use a SanDisk ultra. So far I'm pleased with it even though I broke it once but I think that was due to the fact that I rooted the tablet and switched the external memory with the sd card.

I will probably buy the Samsung brand. They have such a nice performance and actually they are not very expensive.
Feel free to leave some other opinions and who knows, you could change my mind.

I have a class 4 Kingmax 32GB and I noticed that the transfer speeds are ~10 Mb/s which I feel are rather slow. Can you guys share what size and brand you are using and an average transfer speed?

Yeah, it is way too slow. Class 4 SD crads are too slow for phones (for example; S3). You should look for higher class, like class 10. I am thinking of buying this card; http://www.samsung.com/us/photography/digital-cameras-accessories/MB-MP16DA/AM which has up to 48mb/s read/write. Moreover, Samsung cards are very cheap in my country.
However, I heard bad things about this brand, so I suggest you buy Sandisk Ultra. Sandisk is something like the Iphone of the SD cards. They have really good performance, but the price is without any comment.
