I have de 8GB model and a 2GB micro sd card, and I was looking if I could put a ultra sd card so also my phone can go faster and have more memory, but I don't know if the s3 mini can hold the speed, I read that you can put it on an s2, if I can't, what class of sd should I put, maybe a class 8 could work without problems.
Thanks

Yes you can, I'm using ultra Sandisk 64GB class 10, so far no problems.

I'm going to buy a 16GB microsd card from sandisk. I've been finding on Amazon and found these two products:
Sandisk 16GB Mobile Ultra MicroSD Card : £36.00
SanDisk 16GB microSDHC Memory Card : £15.99
I've also noticed they're all class 2 (can't find a class 4 or class 6 sandisk). So what is the difference between them? I'm using the card for Windows Phone 7, so which one should I buy?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SD_Memory_Card#SDHC_cards_with_greater_than_32.C2.A0GB_capacity
as I understand it the only advantage of SDHC is an increased card storage. And im not sure if an SDHC card works in the HD2.

Both of them should be SDHC (>2GB). I'm asking about the Ultra thing.

Sorry, got it wrong
They're the same thing. One has an adapter however
Ultra means it has higher transfer speeds.
There's also Ultra and Extreme in the regular SDs.
Ultra=15 mb/s
Extreme=30 mb/s
So it's all about speed.
@apallohadas: they have different model number, one is SDSDQY-016G-E11M and one is SDSDQ-016G-FFP. And I suspect that just a card reader will make that difference in price.
@joooe: but they're both class 2?
I've tried several different class cards in my HD2, and regardless of advertised 'class' r/w speeds only changed noticeably if I took it out of my phone and used a card reader or adapter like shown in the "ultra" listing you have.

Hello apallohadas
can you confirm or any one without any doubt that there is no difference in R/W speed between class 2 or class 4 or class 6 inside HD2 with Windows 6.5 or Android
thanks

I don't have Winmo installed on my phone anymore, so I can't rerun that test and I didn't keep the numbers last time that I did it.
But if you'd like to try testing cards yourself, I used a program called H2test and a card adapter. My Class 2 Sandisk 32GB card gave numbers comparable to a class 6 Transcend 16GB.
Inside of the HD2 however, while on Android the tests take too long (setting read/write file sizes of 1GB+.) I've read in several places that the hardware limits performance as though they were all class 2 cards.
There are reviews where a class 4 card is superior to a class 6 card.
Sandisk cards are just great.
In the sandisk website there is no info about the class of both cards. Don't believe they have the same class.

thank you apallohadas for replay
I think so, hardware limitation to Class 2 with HD2 although I read in several places that there is more performance with Class 6 or 10 card in Android especially SD Android
I have Sandisk 16G class 2 and want to upgrade to 32G and I don't want to wast my money in useless class 6 or 10 with my EU HD2,
any one use Sandisk class2 then upgrade to class4 or 6 with EU HD2 and get faster performance in read and write inside HD2 not as disk drive ??
thanks
as the title....
many thanks
I have a Patriot Signature 32GB microSDHC card. Works fine in the Galaxy Tab WiFi.
Yes it can its expandable to 32 GB max external SD card.
Thanks guys!
Keep an eye on the class reading as well, the higher the class the faster the transfer speed. I'm using a class 10 Lexar 32GB and very happy with it. I take the card out and use the included card reader to transfer music and video files from and to my pc.

absolutely, yes
Hey guys, my phone is currently suffering from the "Encription Unsuccessful" issue so I am looking to get a new/bigger SD card to use with the phone. Question I have though is what is the biggest size SD card that I can use? I currently have an 8 gig one designated for it but if both internal and external drives are gonna be on the SD card I would rather have a bigger card for it.
So is the max 16 gigs or 32 gigs? Thanks.
32gb works. http://androidforums.com/samsung-captivate/129612-maximum-size-sd-card.html
Cool, thanks!
If you can, try to get class 10 cards. I have had some problems with class 4 cards rebooting my device over and over. I only use Samsung class 10 cards.

Completely agree. You really shouldn't go less than class 6. When comparing the price difference, the class 10 is really the best deal.
Hello.
I'm going to buy a memory card to X8.
So far I use the memory card of 8GB GOODRAM
I mean a professional card for developers.
I mean the best, in your opinion, the card X8.
Sorry for my English.

what is 8GB "GOODRAM"
go for a class 10 sd card.
If you want to go ahead and create some sort of dualbooting script like feherneoh did, you better buy a class 10 16GB SDCARD. However, if by "dev" you mean downloading ROMs and installing them a normal class 4 8GB SDCARD should be enough. Hope you understand.
I use a Samsung sdhc plus 8gb class 10 (model MB-MPAGA). It's a quite cheap sd with awesome performance (21 mb/s write and 24 mb/s read declared)...i reccomend this (or any class 6+) if you are going to use sd for swap
The memory card brand is one, second and more important is class of memory card. Absolutely important is 10-class, next is brand. Kingston or "no name" is sdcard to put in waste bin, no in smartphone. Samsung, Goodram, Tramscendent, or Sony. In my opinion is the best.
Sandisk isn't the best?
I have the stock microSD card that came with the Nexus One (4gb class 2) and I am looking to replace it with a higher capacity and higher class microSD card.
I am looking at a 16gb class 10 microSD card for this purpose. Will this be compatible with the Nexus One?
AFAIK class 10 cards are SDHC cards. Does Nexus One recognize SDHC cards?
I have read some compatibility issues with a 32gb class 10 card, but not 16gb class 10 card.
Also, I will be partitioning 4gb with EXT4 file system (for mount2sd reverse mount) and the rest FAT32 for normal use. Will class 10 card work with both these file formats and will mount2sd work?
Or would a class 6 card be better for speed and compatibility?
Thanks for helping.

The class 10 MicroSD cards are all SDHC category cards. That's what I meant.
Anyways, thanks for your help. I will get the 16GB class 10.

The HC in microSDHC, miniSDHC, SDHC, only means that the card has a high capacity (4 - 32 GB). According to the official manual, the Nexus One should support microSD cards up to 32 GB.
I have a SanDisk 32 GB microSD class 10 in my Nexus One and it has been doing great for quite some time! Runs smooth and with no hassles. I don't see why you would have any issues with a 16 GB.
using samsung brand
Hi
bought the fastest class 10 (samsung brand) 16gb with the highest writing rate I could find, and using the latest 4.2.2 rom it is faster than the stock version. simply amazing.
invest in good speed. it's worth every penny
