Found this on Ebay, don't know though. It comes out of Shanghai and the price is cheap. I'm more worried about cheap crap wrecking my phone. Anybody try one of these yet?

it won't wreck your phone, but it will probably die after a few weeks - if that long. If you but it, be prepared to throw away your money at some point and all the data on the card.
SanDisk probably won't warranty it because it is probably counterfeit.
don't think u ever will get it
last 16gb card i bought over ebay was about 7€cheaper then all the rest and i never saw it - got money back by paypal thats why i tried (and he had about 100 positive votings).
this seems to be about 50€ cheaper then a normal 32GB card and he has 0 votings - so he propably tires to get the money and vanish into dust before Paypal can claim the money from him.
would buy something more recent.
I bought a 16gb kingston class 4 on amazon, it was around 45$, and they had a promo that if you signed up for an amazon credit card you get 30$ off your first bill. so bought it and paid it off for 15$.
Honestly, with Froyo coming soon and apps2sd, Id really reccomend investing in a good class 4 or 6. The faster the speed of the card, the faster your phone will be able to pull and push data to it.
Another note, my class 4 can move large files at about 8-9 mb/s, but if there are many small files it will only run about 3 mb/s, so Id really recommend a reputable brand. That is not to say the kingston doesnt work good, just to say one of those cheapo 30$ cards advertising class 6 will probably run much slower and break apart quickly
Good point about the speed issue. Can't wait for Froyo.

Class ratings apply to write speeds not read speeds. Theoretically you can write faster to higher class cards, but this usually applies to direct writes on the device (camcorder recording to card) not USB between phone and PC. The USB copies (PC to phone) may be faster, but you have a additional overhead of the USB bus.
Buy a name brand card. I have an 8Gb Sandisk class 2 and it works great for Camera, camcorder, and anything else i want to do with the phone software. My 1080P camcorder has class 6 cards, but it requires it.
I'd steer clear from buying memory cards/ usb flash drives on eBay. I've seen way too many people get scammed on getting what they thought was a 16gb flash drive and end up with a 128mb stick with 16gb screenprinted on it. These microSD's are no different.

Actually I tested this using the sdhc adapter directly to the SD card slot. so no USB/phone interface interfering here. And again, thats what I was stressing. Buy a name brand card, probably a class 4 or 6 considering the move to froyo.

So you got the same MB/s throughput with the card reader as well as the phone connected to the PC? Still puts the USB bus in the way. EDIT - NM I see what you were measuring.
I wonder what the transfer rate is on the phone - back and forth between internal SD and external SD.
Huh, interesting concept. I dont even know of a way to test that
I bought a 32gig card from China for 18 bucks shipped. 1st time I've been scammed on ebay. It seemed to show up as a 32gig, but the phone wouldn't recognize it and wanted to format it....sure thing I figured. Now it shows as an 8mb card that won't format no matter what I do. I disputed it to paypal after the auction/seller disappeared on ebay, but they want me to send it back to China to refund. I considered this might happen and was willing to risk 20 bucks, but it didn't end up well. The funniest part was that it showed up in Kingston packaging, but the date was 2008. I'm pretty sure 32 gig microSD's didn't even exist in 2008.
Thats terrible!! well good luck getting your money back... Lol so I guess if it looks too good to be true, it probably is. Id just stick with trustworthy sellers, brands, and sites, and look for good deals!

I am not sure where you found this - but the official specs call for up to 32GB card:

Many people are using 32GB cards. It is the limit of the SDHC spec, so the 16gb is probably a typo from somewhere.

Not sure if the one I purchased is the same because the item post has been removed but mine came from Beijing I believe. Came in a Kingston package which was obviously fake. Put it in my phone did a format and it showed a 32gb card. Writing files takes forever directly from the computer but everything looks good so far. Mainly using it for music.

Just in case anybody was wanting a hands on confirmation....
How much did that cost you?
$199US direct from Sandisk US online store (selling it exclusively at release, and still exclusive through them but also available from their UK store, problems with stock currently). I got it shipped to NZ using Shipito, which is an excellent service for us non-US residents.
Expensive, but then I've had the money saved over a year now since the 32GB cards were meant to be released ages ago!
Why the hell did you pay that sum of money for card !?!? )) DO you really need it or just for fun ? Because maybe it would be smarter to buy now 16 Gb for like 50$ and when that become small, in year or two, buy 32 Gb for 50-100$, because that would be the price in 2 years....but cheers to your purchase
You have no idea how sick I was of not having all my music on the phone, along with room for apps etc. I've had a 16GB card since their first release and its chafed continually since then.
Besides, 32GB cards were expected ages ago, so I've had the money saved! I budgetted to pay even more to be honest, and still would have made the purchase in a heart beat if they had turned as expensive as I had estimated...
Then enjoy it !
thanks on confirmation ,i really wanted it

" I know personally of someone who has 32GB card in his phone and it is working fine." This is what I am looking for, thank you. The rest was just noise.
Anyone else have any actual personal experience of the 32gb microSD working or not?
Yes, I've not had any major issues with a SanDisk 32gb card, a couple of issues with it not mouting correctly when trying to connect it to my computer and use it as removable storage but I get this occationally with the supplied 8gb card too.
Tested with my friends to start off with, and I've since been out and bought my own, you can buy and use with confidence, using mine mostly to store movies (only so I can showcase the phone - I find myself daily needing to justify why I didnt buy a Desire...).
Currently only about a hundred meg free.
It will become a lot more useful once the phone is rooted.
£100 for a SD card is a lot of money... If I were to do it again I probably wouldnt have bought it when I did, knowing my luck by the time we've rooted it they'll prolly be a third of the price!

I can also confirm that 32 GB SDHC MicroSD cards works well with X10.
...and I can confirm that there are 32 GB MicroSD cards out on the market that does NOT follow SDHC (SD 2.00) specifications, and might therefor be incompatible with the X10.
I was careless and happened to get my hands on one of these non-SDHC 32 GB cards.
SDXC (Secure Digital eXtended Capacit) cards does not work as far as I know of.
it seems that the SD card is cheap in China........i wanna a 16G one
China SD cards
I have read in message boards that china is spoofing the settings on the card to make the phone believe it is a 32gig card, and most of the time people get the card, stick it in the phone see 32 GB and give positive feedback to find out later that after 16gigs it craps out and they lose all their data. I would be VERY wary of a 25$ card from china. If you look at the pictures of the china cards, it used to be that there was a round sticker with 32GB written on the packaging. Probably over 16GB... but now the pictures on Ebay are all of a generic white background micro SD card with 32GB written on it.

I just found THIS 32gb micro SDHC memory card (CLASS 4). Has anyone purchased one yet? I'm real tempted to get one but am a little uneasy spending this much for it to just be a fake. Doesn't Amazon protect you even when you buy from their resellers?
UPDATE: HERE is the review page for the company selling them. I don't know how accurate it is but the second review from the top is most likely about this card.

I purchased a 16gb class 4 card from topram. I used it in my hero (with A2SD) and now use it in my evo. The card works well and is the correct size (I have filled it with around 15.x gb to test).
I think I paid $18 for the card. When I need more space I will buy more 16gb cards before I would spend that much money.
edit: the card holds 14.92gb.

Just curious, what file table system do you use to format these cards to work with most cell phones. FAT32, FATex, NTFS? Or do you use the internal phones format utility?

The Micro Center flash memory is a good choice. They purchase from source manufacturers and drop the "Micro Center" label. An example would be Micro Center 2GB SD (MMAGF02GWMCU-PA) is also branded as a Lexar 2GB SD and a couple other brands.
I have a 16GB Micro Center MicroSD card in my Evo right meow.
Paid $32 for it, can't comment on the speed (don't really care) but the price point is right on.
Can't complain.
i shop their daily for my business. i think the cards they have now are Sandisk and are all class 2. i got an 8 gig there about a year ago and it was a class 6 but since then they are all ether class 2 or occasionally class 4. if speed isn't an issue then i highly recommend them because if you have an issue with any of their MircoCenter branded products just take it back and they give you a new one no question. i am in Columbus and thats their corporate headquarters and it has the best selection. also it is their corporate policy to price match Newegg on anything in store. the Cincinnati store has given me fits about this but when i tell them i am from the Columbus area and shop at the Bethel road store they very quickly change their tune and match Newegg.

I shop at MC almost every other day and ive bought one of every kind of flash memory they have. All of there SD memory is top freakin notch. Technically the micro's are class 2, but remember in SD storage, the class notates the MINIMUM speed. ive tested the 16gb i have a million time and it almost always comes out to class 6 speeds. There regular sd's are smokin fast and i buy them and use a SD card reader instead of buying flashdrives now. Speaking of which DO NOOOOOOOT BUY THERE FLASHDRIVES!!! They suck hardcore. im talkin 1-3mbps write speeds and an ENORMOUS rate of failure. But all there SD media is completely unrivaled. Dont hesitate, just buy it!
I paid 26 for 16 gb and is class two I get 3mbs write and 10mbs read

If he sends the same kingston card as shown in the pic.... is thr any chance of gettin fake ...
I hv seen many loose or unbranded cards as fake ....hv u encountered any fake card in kingston's retail packing?
Yes they are fake. Fake packaging. Made mostly for schmucks like you who think they are real because of the box they come in. If you put a Lamborghini logo and a ford, Its still just a crappy ford.
Anyone can duplicate packaging even if it has holograms. Everything is easily duplicated. Also the card they state is a class 4, Which I doubt. Its most likely a class 1. Either way Class 4 is useless. Get at least a class 6 card or class 10 which is best. If you care at all about watching movies or recording in HD onto the card.

IF IT SEEMS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE.... IT IS!
Thanks everybdy... anyway the listing removed by ebay ...

Recording and playback will be fine with a class 2 card. You certainly don't need anything faster than class 4. The only advantage a class 6 or 10 card has would be faster transfers between your pc and the card.

It scans far more than a "bit quicker". It scans faster then the internal SD card!!
No matter.....I paid $600 for a phone...and am flashing custom ROMS and Kernels and donating to the developers and this site supporting them for more speed with stability, I am not going to cut corners in the same arena to save $40 on a lesser SD Card. I want to get the most out of the handset on all fronts. In that regard the class 10 card makes sense.
Then again people will pay $600+ for a handset, $300+ a year for a data plan and balk at paying $3 for a helpful app or donating to a developer. Strange world this mobile phone world indeed.

Just want to say that remember that Hong Kong is not China even if they are connected and the people look alike. Hong Kong has been a British ruled colony until 1995. China's government tried to make villagers make steel made in the villagers backyards. Do the math.
HK>China

what do you think - surely better than than class 6, or not?
be aware some people are not fond of play.com and their customer service. i have never tried their preordering service - perhaps others can share their experience?
whew! I just bought 64Gb Class 6 version. Since this is a new product, I hope it'll also work with our Note.
It works. But didn't want to work initially, formatted to fat32 and still nothing, but all of a sudden it works. Plugged in and out of my phone finally worked. When transfering, my phone crashes (turns off) Running latest Stunner, have to pull the battery, dunno what the bug is, but I have to install files plugged in directly for faster transfer, kinda slow with USB Mounted anyways.
I trust Rakuten, they are the best source to get East Asian goods and are very reputable, I guess you could say their the equivalent to an Amazon specialising in East Asian goods mainly from Japan.

thanks -
they are a reputable company and been around for ages but apparently their customer service is not very good
do you know if this card would be better than the class 6 64gb sandisk ?
are there any class 10 cards where the read data access times are as good as class 6?
Oh great if it's work with our Galaxy Note !!!
It's strange because it's a class 10 and it's not cheaper ... the class 6 cost very more ... I don't understand this one.

This is my biggest worries about buying microSD card with price that is "too good to be true".
I have bought many many microSD and SD cards (since the days of Windows Mobile phones) and there are tons of fake cards. I noticed that this is usually when the prices of the card is really cheap.
To the OP or whoever bought this card, what's the R/W speed? Use SD Tools from Google Play (link) to measure the speed. In the past, I have bought brand name card from even reputable seller (Amazon Prime) but Amazon themselves got FAKE card. I.e. I got a Kingston Class 6 16GB and the R/W speed is less than 1 Mbps (!!!) My Sandisk 8GB Class 4 R/W is more than 2Mbps.
Not to say bad thing about OP, but just to consider the above.

Hey thanks!
it is always a good idea to be cautious when you buy a memory card and that is why it is important to buy from a reputable store
it seems you were unfortunte to get a dud card as amazon (not amazon market) are usually a safe bet but i guess nothing is for certain in this world ... except death and taxes
Play (again not Play 'Market') are reputable also and been around for many years and i would trust them not to sell fake cards but it is their customer service that is bad. They usually discount things on a pre-release but sometimes they get the availability date wrong and so you might be left waiting. I know Amazon don't withdraw money until the item gets shipped but i don't think that is the case with play and that is where you might end up having a bad experience if they delay shipping etc
some still say a class 6 is better than 10?!!?
