[Q] Which one to buy 8GB 16GB or 32GB MicroSD for optimus black ?

Hello All,
Which size of microsd you are using for optimus black ? i heard 32GB and 16GB will slow down the phone is it true ?

Currently I use 16GB micro SD Class4, no issue of slow down the phone

I'm currently using a 2gb microsd and it is enough for now so I think you probably should buy a 8gb sd class6.

Use 8GB class 10. I'm not a hardcore console/hh gamer and not using my phone as music player. Just 3 HD fps game and several casual game. Mostly theme and display personalisation stuff.

I'm using 16gb Sandisk class 4 or 6 i think and have no problem. After filling up with some music and videos, i wished i'd went for 32gb. Just a thought

Yes, the LG website says "External Memory: Micro SD (up to 32GB)"

Thanks for the reply. Micro SD and SDHC makes no difference?

All SD's above 4GB are SDHC (High Capacity), so no, no diffrence.

Interesting. Thx for the reply.

Hi
I have a 8gb PNY micro Sdhc class10 and is enough for me and fast as well.
And only for 13.99euros.

Well it's personal preference..
I just bought an 8Gb Kingston Class 4
For me, 8Gb is sufficient enough, but to others, maybe no.

SanDisk 16GB micro SDHC class 6 works perfect...

32 GB SDHC Class4 from Transcend - no Problems.
It´s so nice to never have to worry about card space when recording video or audio.... i´d never go for a card with less capacity than maximum.

Class 6 Transcend Micro SD

I prefer class 6 as minimal. Non re-encoded video files should have large bitrate so your card must able to handle high bandwidth.
Sorry OOT, Good encoded 720p HD video bitrate for P970 is around 1000-1200kbps and 128kbps audio is enough to play smoothly.
But i won't encode to 1280x720, it is useless because the screen only projecting 800x480. So with 800x480 i can encode with higher video bitrate = better quality.

In SM Megamall. That was on sale - I bought it @ 1,800.00 pesos (about $ 42)

i have this
but i think it is not real class 10 it working like class 8 or class 6

Very nice.
Btw, is this 32GB microsd card class 10 a fake one in your opinion?

It is written on it but since there's no brand nor package, we can't verify...
EDIT: Err, in fact there's a brand, my bad...
You should ask more photos from the vendor to verify...

Dont know if its fake or not. cost $45(php1900) but one thing is for sure, its stable, i no longer have gallery thumbnail problems and faster sd media scanning unlike my previous class4 one.

I found a very cheap sd card on ebay.
$19.00 for a 32GB.
Looked fake and rubbish at first, but suprisingly i've been using it for almost 5 months with no problems.
Can't post links and images yet, sorry.

You guys think a class 10 16gb sdcard is enough?
Sent from my Paranoid Jelly Phone

Sizewise 16 gb is just fine for me. But depends pon torre media usage. I shot a lot of 720p videos , have few movies and audio albums. At any time at least 2 nandroid backups. IGo gps ( 400 mb maps).
And still have nearly 2 gb free.
Price difference nowadays is hardly worth considering. It is cheap
If i was buying now it would be the same do i want to spend 18-20 euro for 16 class 10, or 30-35 for 32.

why should I need 32 GB on my phone !!! I really don't get it I think 16 GB is even way more storage and I will never be able to run it out

We Xperia u users happy with 6GB :'(

Pankaja, you are correct. My 32GB Transcend SDCard is now dead. The files saved in the SDCard became permanent. I cannot save more files or delete files already saved. Tried formatting when phone is on or in CWM Recovery. Also tried formatting with card reader. Still no success.
I'm now back to my Sandisk 2GB provided when I bought my phone.
CAUTION! To all other users. I suggest do not buy or use Trancend SDCard for our phone. This is based on actual experience.

Well, i'm getting a 16 gb class 10 transcend card soon

Just bought that one for my TL last night. Even though specs say up to 32 gigs,it seems it can support more. I searched everywhere prior to this thread and came to the conclusion that all xperias can use the 64 gig.

Not true - that's only the case for FAT32.
Stick it in a friend's Galaxy Note or S3 and get them to format it (as EXT3/4) and it works fine all the way up to the data limit.
I'm up to about 41GB in my 64GB card and it is working fine in my Xperia T!
BTW, this was answered weeks ago in a thread in this forum:

Yes, this thread is not needed if he had searched, but i didnt see tha thread, I just checked the specs from the sony site and they say it wont support it.
Which pisses me right off because my new class 10 32gb sd card arrived in the post this morning, if i had have known it supported 64gb i would have got one.
However, fear not, I suspect my wife may get that 32 gb card as an xmas present (As she got a T as well) and I may order myself a shiny new 64gb

Why not just send the 32gb card straight back? Then order the 64gb one.
I'd recommend the SanDisk one that the thread I quoted talks about - that's the one I (and others) have so we know it works.
It might also be worth trying the 64gb card straight in the XT to see if it will format to Ext 3/4 without having to put it in another (e.g. Samsung) phone to get full use of the data. I had a G-Note when I bought the card (which was initially FAT32 formatted) and had to wipe it and then reformat to get it to work, the G-Note just formatted it in the right file system standard.
Oh, and I did the same thing with memory cards on my G-Note but fortunately I have a DSLR camera so my 32gb card got re-purposed for that!

What Micro SD Card To Use Xperia Z

hi guys
whats the best micro sd card to use with the xperia z ?
I know this have probably been asked before
ive seen class 4 cards all the way up to class 10 cards
does the class even matter ???

I did seem to have an issue playing films with my 32GB Class 4 but since I've bought the SanDisk Ultra 64GB Class 10 it's been just fine.

If I am correct, 4.2.2 supports 64GB officialy.

In exFat yes, but choose the SD you think you need
The SD Association defines standard speed classes indicating minimum performance to record video. Both read and write speeds must exceed the specified value. These are defined in terms of suitability for different applications:[40]
Class 2 for SD video recording
Class 4 and 6 for high-definition video (HD) to Full HD video recording,
Class 10 for Full HD video recording and consecutive recording of HD stills
UHS Speed Class 1 for real-time broadcasts and large HD video files
The specification defines these classes in terms of performance curves that translate into the following minimum read-write performance levels on an empty card:[41]
Speed Classes 2, 4, and 6 assert that the card supports the respective number of megabytes per second as a minimum sustained write speed for a card in a fragmented state. Class 10 asserts that the card supports 10 MByte/s as a minimum non-fragmented sequential write speed.[41] By comparison, the older "×" rating measured maximum speed under ideal conditions, and was vague as to whether this was read speed or write speed.
The host device can read a card's speed class, unlike the earlier "×" speed ratings. A device can warn the user if the card reports a speed class that falls below an application's minimum need.[41]
The speed class rating does not totally characterize card performance. Different cards of the same class may vary considerably while meeting class specifications. In addition, speed may vary markedly between writing a large amount of data to a single file (sequential access, as when a digital camera records large photographs or videos) and writing a large number of small files (a random-access use common in smartphones). One study found that, in this random-access use, some Class 2 cards achieved a write speed of 1.38Mbit/s, while all cards tested of Class 6 or greater (and some of lower Classes; lower Class does not necessarily mean better small-file performance), including those from major manufacturers, were over 100 times slower.[42]

im currently running sandisk 32GB class 4, almost full capacity and it works great

Samsung 64 GB, Class 10
probably offering best transfert rates for its capacity
it has shown between Samsung has an edge over Sandisk Micro SD card

I was using a Sandisk 32gb class 10 ultra. But it suddenly yesterday stopped working. Was working fine. Now can't even get the pc to read it, how can that happen.

So, I just got the Z through T-Mobile and am (casually) looking into getting an SD car for it. Should I hold out until the device is upgraded to 4.2 before getting a 64gig card? I'm assuming it wouldn't be compatible beforehand.
I suppose I could look into rooting the Z as well... (I'm kinda hesitant about that, though)

Bad SD card?
I bought a generic 64gb class 10 microSD card from ebay, great seller, great reviews. but it seems that my Xperia corrupts it once in a while and wants to format it. I started it with exfat, but then learned that FAT32 is better, so did that.. but the same result, after a week , the SD card just crashed and corrupted and wanted a format, as the phone stopped reading it.
Is there anything that i'm missing, or shall i just chalk it up to bad sd card and get a sandisk or transend branded card?

It's not your card, it's a fault with the Xperia z, my class 10 SanDisk 32GB got corrupted two days ago as well, lots of folk reporting the same, seems class 4 is ok, any one confirm that?

It really depends on what model you buy for your needs all manufacturers make slow and fast ones. I agree that Sandisk is overpriced on their MSRP but if you shop around, look for deals & price match you will get high quality for a fair price.

What cards are supported?
I assume all?

And what about speed classes? Both: Class 10 and UHS-1?
The question is: will all of them work and if yes then what max read write speed can Note 4 utilize?

All of them will work.
Maximum speed is utterly dependant on the card. I'm not sure what the theoretical maximum speed the phone could handle, but I'm sure that the card itself will be the limiting factor, not the phone.

Got the same thing. Working with no problems so far. As for speeds, I've never paid too much attention to the speeds of sd cards, so I couldn't give any specifics.

I've purchased the Samsung 64gb Pro card from Amazon and looking forward to using it.
It's supposedly one of the fastest.

Do you record your 4K videos to SD card?
Could you run any SD benchmark with your EVO?
I read some reviews on the net and seems that EVO should be more than enough for normal Note 4 operation (recording videos, watching huge fullhd movies from mkv files).

Would anybody mind to test 32 or 64GB EVO card?
1) Perform a 4K video recording to your SD card.
2) Perform a speed test with any of the test app inside your phone.
Thanks!!
I really have some doubts because this site http://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-microsd-card/ says that for 4K recording something faster is needed than EVO.
But on the other hand: 4K recording requires only 6MB/s of sequential writing and EVO can handle up to 19MB/s (at lease every review claims that).
Thanks!!!
