To give a little more info, you'll pay a lot more for class 10.
Benefits of class 10 are improved wrote speeds over large files, say hi movies etc.
For smaller files that performance is compromised by lesser smaller file transfers such as general info files, docs, apk's etc.
Final story, go for class 4 or 6, for mobile use, you'll have faster access and read times on general files, and slower transfer rates on large movies, and so it'll take a while to copy a movie, but your daily usage will improve about 20 percent.

A 32Gb class 4 straight away, why to compromise 16 Gb for data speeds. ?
I will get class 10. But thats my choice so anybody pls dont get angry with me

it depend what you need .. if capacity that you looking and 16GB is not enough then grab the 32GB even with class 4 coz far that i used that class 4 (original one and i don't want to mention the brand here) i don't feel any drop perfomance in daily use ( I can say this coz i compare with my 16GB class 10 that i had)..but yes is lil longer when try to transfer data from or to PC as our friend mention above
..and if you really want the high capacity with high speed while transfer data or watch the big size movie example .. try to looking the Ultra micro SDHC 32GB class 10 on store or online market .. and be ready to grab a deep pocket i guess

I seem to remember that my captivate can take a 16GB micro SD card. Can it address a larger one? How big can I go?
I'm also assuming its bus or processor limitted and that there is no reason to buy a class 6 card. Any comments there?
Thanks
Carl

i'm pretty sure the largest size you can go is 32gb. and i'd suggest a Class 4 or higher if you're going big but be prepared to pay
32 gb is the highest and class ia up to you. I am happy with my class 2. I see no reason to spend thwarting money on a higher speed when class 2 records fine.

Doesn't the class have more to do with transferring data more than actually writing on it?

Class ratings determine how fast the card can write. Writes are slower then reads so this has become a standard of measure. Writes (and class) correspond to MB/s; so higher class does equal higher throughput.
Higher Class will give you faster transfer from PC to phone if you have no other bottlenecks. In some cases, like hd camcorders, higher class cards are required for recording. The phone does fine with a class 2 for recording HD video, so i see no reason to spend the money on higher class cards. I can wait the extra minutes if I rewrite the entire card, but most of the time I am just adding a few GB here or there.
Hiya guys,
I have been looking forward to buy a memory card of 32 GB. I have found out that there are various memory cards available of different classes. The least one is Class 4 which is the cheapest and Class 10 is the most expensive. I am not sure about the difference between the two.
I would like to know which Class memory card should be fine for the Galaxy Note ? Class 4 will work or I should choose Class 10 memory card ?
Please help me with this...
that would be the read speed.. the higher the better..
most say class 4 is plenty fast for just about everything..some say class 10 would work better if you're trying to watch say a very large video from your sdcard..
personally i think a class 4 or 6 would be enough.
I'm Using Sandisk 32GB Class 4 Memory Card.I Think It Is Best & Enough For My Galaxy Note.
Thanks guys...
I have checked the reviews on Amazon and gone through some of the threads available on this forum. I'm sure Class 4 would work for my requirements. I will choose one..
Thanks again...

I'd recommend the SanDisk MobileMate series, think they're class 4 or 6, good value and excellent stability, as well as speed. Worth a look.

I use class 10 card because they have a better read/write time as an class 4 Card.
Currently using SanDisk 32GB class 4.
The speed is good enough for me.
Lexar 32 GB Class 10. One of the cheapest and fastest.

It's worth reading up on transfer speeds versus read/writes for small files versus larger files. If you're only reading/writing large files then class 10s are what you're looking for.
If you're needing it for installing and rilunning apps or other collections of small files then class 4s will have better performance.
I've also read up that samsung are about to release some new standards with much higher data transfer rates, I'm not sure the note will make full use of them, but they'll be quick transers:

Mine is a Sandisk 32 Gb Class 2, I'm one of the suckers who bought the first time a 32Gb MicroSD got released and payed double the current price..
But it is good enough, I can play large movies up to 3+Gb
**while you're at it, you might want to consider buying 64Gb MicroSDXC instead. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330784
For listening to music or viewing films, classes 4 or 6 are ok (even class 2 from a good manufacturer like SanDisk).
It's when copying large music libraries or films that you appreciate having a class 10 card. And if you intend to use your GN for viewing lots of films, then you'll have to carry copy operations quite often...

Hi all,
I've currently been using a 16GB Sandisk Class 4 MicroSD in my Note, and that's filling up, and I'm planning to switch to a 32GB card.
BUT, there's 2 I'm stuck against choosing between.
This one is a 32GB Class 4 card by SanDisk:

But this one is a 32GB Class 10 card by Play.com:

Which should I go for?
If you want more speed: Class 10
If you want more money: Class 4

32GB CLASS 10.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA Premium App
I'd personally go for the class 4, SanDisk are a much better brand and do faster transfer rates by default, so another brand class 4 would likely be slower than a SanDisk card.
The only time you'll notice the benefits of class 10 is for pc transfers of large files, most normal and small files will still transfer at reduced rates. In general use you will get zero benefit of it being class 10.

I second his opinion here.
Hi,I for the fun project tried the R-Pi with my old Class 2 2Gb card in the drawer ;\0\]Just wondering if anyone has tried these Sandisk Ultra cards which promise good speeds !!
Do they make significant differences ??

They do make a difference, but in reality any card with class 6 speeds and up, and 4 GB+ should be fine. Your 2 GB class 2 card is a little small and slow, geting a bigger and faster will offer noticeably better performance in areas such as boot times and application responsiveness.

Yes, a 16 GB Class 10 SD card will have write speeds around 10-15 MiB/s and read speeds around 15-25 MiB/s in real world performance scenarios. Some brands preform better then others such as the SanDisk Class 10 cards.

Glad I could help man, if you want a good list of all known working SD cards that are compatible with the RPi check out this list here.
I just placed the order for Sandisk , mobile ultra 8 Gb !! seems it says class 10 but they say its 30Mbps !
I noticed that with the Raspberry, the "theoretical" speed matters very little.
What is important, is how fast can the card read and write small and very small files.
As a rule of thumbs, the "highest" the speed advertised by the manufacturer, the poorer the performances will be.
I have been quite happy so far with low class (6) Sandisk Ultra as they perform quite good with small files.
Hope this helps!
Hell I have a class 4 and it's good for me. Although I use a usb drive for my files. The sd is just for the OS, packages, system files etc

Hello all, yesterday I bought a Class 10 UHS-1 16GB Micro SD card by sandisk at walmart for an amazing deal it was about $20.00....idk if others know about this I just wanted to share it for everyone using link2sd as this will help expodentialy with app read and write speed they also sell bigger capacities for about the same price as the copacity.....you might find better deals out there but I thought this was good for a brand name SD card...

Class 10 has best write speeds I think. While class 6 is best write speeds or maybe opposite not 100 percent sure
