I going to buy a new micro SD card just don't know which I should buy the 16gb class 6 or 32gb class 2. Anybody have any answers and where I can get one at a cheaper price

I have a 16, and it's filled up.
Get a 32.
What class did u have for the 16gb? Did it make a difference in speed if higher than class 2
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
I have a class 2 and it does the whole apps2sd fine. No speed problems.
I picked up a Sandisk 32GB for $110 from Amazon.com.
Verizon
You can get a 32gb sd from Verizon's website for $99

Want to upgrade the SDHC card in my Hero, and they always say buy as big as you can afford, so I was looking at a 16GB from CompUSA. They have one for $38, but, it's a Type 2. Is there any problem with using a Type 2 card? The type 6 is considerably more expensive, and if a Type 2 will work fine, then I am more than happy buying the Type 2.
Is 16GB too big?
Also, should I simply direct copy everything from my current card over to the new card, or should I start fresh and copy nothing? Not sure if my card is a mess or not, there are some files on there from apps that I no longer have on my device. I mainly want to have lots of room to load different ROM's and room for Nandroid backups.
I do not have a large amount of photos or music on my card, nor do I see myself having a large amount of this type of content in the future.
I currently have a 16gb class 6 adata card in mine. Once the 32gb cards price come down I will look at them. I just copied everything to my pc and than copied to new card. my phone was completely stock at the time
Edit: as far as the class unless you plan on using a2sd feature on a custom rom the class 2 should be fine
Kernels that use ramzswap work better with a class 6 card.... it is a faster memory card... I went with an 8gig class 6 over the 16gig class 2 and use firerats custom partition and have all the space I need

From what I have read a class 6 is what we want for our phones. I currently have a 4 gig class 4, but bought a 8 gig class 6 from ebay yesterday, only $20.
Hey, that's a great price. It wasn't one of those from Hong Kong was it?
I saw many of those on there having very low prices, but, I have purchased that cheap computer stuff from Hong Kong before, and most of it didn't work, and also, took like a month to ship. Not saying yours was, just asking.
Right now, I probably will not be using Ap2SD, so I got an 8 GB class 2 for $18. I'll see how that works out.
Thanks!

+1. Be careful of cards on eBay... check the sellers ratings and location.... if its way under priced and coming from over seas and sounds too good to be true then it probably is.... I learned this the hard way.....

I am using Kingmax 16GB MicroSDHC Class 10 on amazon for $60 .. I believed a Kingmax 8GB class 10 cost only $30.00.
I am inbetween these two cards. One is a Kingston 16GB Kingston class 4, while the other is a 32GB Sandisk class 2. The only thing I'm concerned about is the speeds on the 32GB Sandisk SD Card, how do you think it will compare with the Kingston?

Real world performance... most won't notice any difference in speed. Go with the 32 GB, as the extra storage can be extremely handy.
I use the 32gb with an Incredible, speed is fine.
I compared 3 cards. Sandisk 16GB class 2, Transcend 16GB class 6, Sandisk 16GB class 4.
The Sandisk 16GB class 2 actually out performed the other 2 cards in write speed. The Sandisk class 4 had a slightly higher read speed than the class two but just not enough to justify the price difference, so I went with the Sandisk class 2 cause it's an all round performer and it's cheaper than the other 2.
I got mine for $27.00 locally
I got the 32g from Verizon. It's a class two, but all the Sd Card "Benchmark Apps" rate it as a class 4 for what its worth. Definitely the 32g...Way handy!
Thanks for all the responses guys. I guess I'll definitely be going with the 32 GB one then!!

Look on new egg you can get 32 gb for about 70$$ there, it's where I got mine

I got the Kingston 32 gb Class 2 on ebay for $49 free shipping. You may want to look there.
Get one of these two Microsd cards if possible
I have found this card at newegg class 10. 16gb, even got a review for the htc incredible that was not bad, but the person did say that it only read it as a class 6. Was only $28. its sold out as of right now, but when it comes back you should probably get one. Im hoping this company makes a 32gb version.
but if you want a known name brand then I would go with Patriot 16gb class 10 microsd which happens to be also out of stock but goes for $38. Probably just the price difference on name brand, but you never know. both are unfortunately sold out. means they are hot right now.
Confused ......omg ebay scares me....duo pro,sdhc or class2,3,4.....can someone help me make a choice.....also is 32 gb properly supported by our device?

Hey,
i've bought a 16GB class 6 card from memorystar...
If you want to install Link2SD/App2SD a class 6 card will be better (Class 6 is faster...)

I saw a class 10 card smwhere......now is this class 10 faster than class 6?
Sent from my GT540 using XDA App
yes, a class 10 card is faster than a class 6 card, but a class 10 card is very expensive.
Don't buy a noname class 10 card for 30 Euro that might be a fake...
yeah i have that doubt too , about if a 32gb sdcard is properly supported by our phone and not brick it in the trying lol , also how will i know what class if my sdcard? is there a software for check that info?
On the most cards its on the body...
If not you can also ask the shop where you bought the card
A memory card with class 4 or higher is good!
Buy class 6, thats save
Try to avoid buying memory cards on ebay unless you have a clear idea about memory cards and the ebay seller. Some cheap chinese cards on ebay could be fakes which either would not work well or would have the capacity inflated by a driver hack.
microSDs come in class 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10. The speed difference between each of these classes is tremendous. However, the price is also different. Class 10 being most expensive and class 2 being cheapest.
You'd have to strike a good balance between speed, price and capacity. I'd recommend a Class 6 with 16GB capacity.
Of course, if you have lots of money to spare, go for a class 10 32GB.

it is faster but you will only see difference when you move big files from pc to phone.
what not to buy : Kingston 8gb class 4
I'm on a budget here, and I'm looking for an external SD to place all my media.
Thing is, I don't need to have amazing transfer speeds from PC to card.
I just play media on phone, and I don't frequently take videos on my phone.
So what's the best card for me? I suppose class 10 cards aren't a necessity for me right?
I bought a SanDisk 64GB Micro SDXC from Amazon for $45. Don't know what your budget is so it is hard to recommend something.

Just get a standard Class 10 mSD card. Unless of course you want 64GB in which case you would want to get the SanDisk Ultra 64GB
32GB

I totally agree.
Whatever your budget and size-need is; make sure you buy a card that is class 10. Class 4 are too slow for files transfers; they're good for the normal reading of audio and video files but the transfers (in and out) are just a pain-slow...

WOAH! Anyone have any experience with any of these Sony SD cards? Looks like they're priced to move...
I heard eg class 6 performs better than class 10 in some scenarios.
Is class 10 always the way to go?
I've had a class 4 kingstone micro sd card and it worked extremely fine with media files .. I think class 10 just for media is a little bit far
Sandisk 32 gig class 10 is $22 on amazon. The class 6 is a couple dollars more. You won't need the higher class for what you are doing. Just for basic pics and music a class 6 is fine. Also I advise against the 64 gig if you are using CWM recovery and/or a aosp ROM. They aren't friends.

I have a sandisk sd 64 and I really like it. For most basic users like yourself I would suggest looking for a bargain deal. Amazon has SD cards on sale most of the time, I wouldn't buy anything unless it was on sale if budget is important.
I got Samsung after my SanDisk failed

i bought strontium 16gb class 10 2 months ago for 630Rs. Apparently it is out of stock as of now. And its great + cheap.
and you can also buy transcend 16GB Class 10 for 899Rs (that's expensive).
You gotta search on flipkart cuz i can't post links.
You will find 16gb class 10 in range of Rs. 600-800 in shops. But do check whether its class 10 or not.
Class 10
I am using a Transcend 16GB Class 10 micro sd and its awesome.:good:
