What is the best "class" of SDHC card for the Atrix?
I am sure Class 10 would be best, but if there is no performance benefit I would get a Class 4.
So, does anyone have performance benchmarks of different class cards in the Atrix?
Thanks!
My class 4 works with no issues
What is the recommended Micro SDHC Class for Atrix?
Even though it may support class 10, it might not be able to take complete advantage of it. Does anyone know if it results in significant performance gain over a class 6 or even a class 4 SDHC ? Links to articles from respected blogs/websites would be highly appreciated. Thanks!

+1 Don't waste too money on getting a class 10. Hardly any noticeable difference u'd find. Class 4 should work pretty good.
it may not make a huge difference while it is in the phone but if you take it out to load and unload data it will make a difference there....
How would class 4 be for HD recording?
Thanks
Newegg has some for under 40

Exactly! It is for this reason I prefer faster write speeds. Cheers.
provantage had lexar 32gb c10 on sale for 75 (82 shipped) a week ago, picked it up since it was 90+ everywhere else. no big difference from that and the old c6 i had that i have really noticed while in the phone. not a big fan of the adapter that came with it.
hey
Which card should i buy?
Which class is the internal memory?
Do i need class 10 card?
thnks.
I have a 16 gig class ten and it made no difference on my N1 compared to the stock class 4 card as far as performance goes with apps2sd and the like during operation. It also made no difference transferring files to or from the sd while in the phone. It is much faster if you take it out and plug it into the laptop though. I'm not sure if that limitation applied to the N1 alone or is common with this one. I was thinking of getting a 32 gig because then I could carry all my music and wouldnt have to hassle with it as the internal storage is enough for all my other uses. Knowing what I know now I will likely go with a name brand class 4 card. Too many horror stories with fake cards and my own experience is that the extra speed from class 10s doesnt do much of anything in my usage.
If you do a search you will find several recent threads on SD cards....
You don't need class 10! because this is not a super professional camera. Class 4 is enough (in some case even class 2 is enough 'cause some people say that class 2 speed of some manufacturers is faster then class 4 of other ones).
I have ordered SanDisk class 4 32gb and still wating for delivery...
Choose only good manufacturers, such as: SanDisk/Trancerd/Kingston/A-Data (and before doing an order, check on their official website (and google a lil' bit) if the particular class exist - for example if you will see class 2, 6 or 8 of Kingston on ebay, know that it's a fake since kingston has only 4 and 10 classes according to their website)
I don't know if this is only in the Netherlands but here its possible to get a 8GB micro sd for FREE from Samsung when you registrate your purchase on the samsung site. (only condition is that you buy your device before the end of may)
On my camera I've had issues when recording hd quality movies in anything less than a class 6.
So I'm going for class 6 or above on phone

Which card did you get? Im looking for the cheapest sandsik 32 gb right now, sandisk's are underrated. a class 2 can be faster than a other brand class 4 or 6.
if you google "SD class speeds " the second link down (this is applicable to micro sd as well gents)
it will show you what class you will need for what application eg recording 1080p on your phone will require a class 4 minimum however class 6 is "moar" recommended
however as stated above class 10 isnt needed and if you read a few reviews some class 6 in the case of sandisk e.g. the sandisk extreme class 6 III is faster than some cheapo class 10.

micro SDHC class
so, can somebody please confirm that class 4 micro SDHC card (good brand) is enough for taking videos on GS2? I am looking at 32GB and it seems there is a shortage of class 10 cards in my country, should I buy class 4?
I believe the semi official numbers for 1080P recording on the SGSII is 17Mbps? That means a bit more than 2MB per second. 'Class' refers to how many MB's the card can write each second, so class 4 should be fine for 1080P, as well as many class 2 cards. But of course faster is always better
I bought a class 2 32 gb from amazon.it...
Can you suggest me a program / tool to test its speed?
Anyway, I used it to record a full hd video for 15 mins. I watched it entirely and I didn't notice any skipped frame or stucks etc.. It runs fine
Just plug in to a pc and copy a large file. That will show you the speed.

Have a look for h2testw Version 1.4. It's a free utility that will test capacity and speed. As you may know, the problem with lots of card on sale is that they have been hacked to make it appear that they have a greater capacity than they actually have. It can be sometimes hard to spot but h2testw (and, no doubt, others like it) will do proper checks.
im after a good 32gb card anyone has any trusted sellers (internationally shipping) would like to share
or ship to Australia.
If you're looking for a decently priced 32GB class 4 Microsd card backed by one of the biggest and most respected retailers in the world, you can do much worse than this:
http://www.amazon.com/Transcend-Class-microSDHC-Memory-TS32GUSDHC4/dp/B004R7P28W/ref=pd_cp_e_1
This is sold by Amazon... not "fulfilled by Amazon" but actually sold by them. So $55.00 buys you the peace of mind of knowing that if there's anything wrong with the card, you can always get your money back. Plus, this is about as cheap as I, personally, have seen legitimate 32GB cards sold for.
Also, buy with Amazon's Super Saver shipping and shipping is free (does take a bit longer, though.)
In any case, this is probably what I'll do when I get around to upgrading my 16GB card for a 32.

The higher the number, the faster the write speed. Class 10 is the fastest I have seen in a 32GB MicroSD card. Here is a link on the class differences:

I ordered mine last night and can't wait for it to get here!
I bought a Patriot 32gb Class 4 for $39 + 1.99 shipping from Frys.com. It was a weekend only sale and I ordered mine like 30 minutes prior to the sale ending that Sunday night (so I didn't have time to mass post the deal here). I've since received it and it works great. I'm using it in my Acer Iconia A500 tablet instead of my Evo though. You'd think that watching hi-res movies on the larger screen of the A500 would put the read speed of this Class 4 card to the test, but the whole experience has been flawless.
If you're in the market for a 32gb card, I'd keep an eye on the usual websites (Amazon, Buy.com, Newegg, Frys, etc.) because they Class 4 cards are starting to get rather affordable. The Class 10 cards are still a bit too pricey for my wallet.

My understanding is that the read speed on most of these cards is going to be fine. It's the write speed that varies most and which is dependent on the Class rating of the card. I've got a 16GB class 2 card in my Nook Color and there's no lag watching movies.

The read speed varies significantly between the card classes as well. The big question is whether or not the hardware (which typically trails behind the media) can take advantage of a card with faster access/read times. I haven't found a utility that can speed test the external SD card in my Tegra2 based Acer A500 tablet, but in a thread on another Android forum, the Evo hardware was shown to take advantage of the significantly faster read times in Class 6 & 10 cards.
All that being said, how fast a read time does anyone really need? I've never felt the need to date to go faster than Class 4 card in any of my devices, for both read and even write times.

I wouldn't mind faster write times on my Nook Color if only to be able to copy movies on and off faster (on my current card it takes between 3 and 5 minutes per 1.5 GB title.) Other than that, yeah... not much reason. I've made lots of videos on my Evo and never noiticed any issues with write speed on my Class 4 card.
There is a 32GB class 10 sold by Amazon for $42.31 ($52.31 - $10 MIR with free shipping) right now.

Thats not a micro SD
I've got a class 10 16GB card in my evo. AND I CORRECTLY did speed tests through my computer and through the phone. and with the class then, there was a huge improvement on speeds even while it was installed in the evo. Professionally speaking.. I think they should install class 10 in all mobile phones. :-D it will only go as fast as its slowest connection.

TigerDirect is a direct competitor or NewEgg and is 100% legit but I cannot find the card you are refering too. Can you PM me the link and I can post it up for everybody?
Edit:
Found it:

The estimated delivery date for the SD on tiger Direct is late Aug. Hopefully that's just a worst case scenario.

I buy from Tiger all the time, personally and for my last place of work. 100% trustworthy company. Been around forever (in computer time).
so, which would be the best, most stable class 10 micro sdhc card? i can't seem to find a definitive answer, as everyone seems to complain about the cards not being a "true class 10", etc. there are only a few reviews on newegg,
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ... 600006235 600082443&IsNodeId=1&name=Class 10
and amazon, a bunch of people complain about the speed ratings mot being true.
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_s...32gb+micro+sd+class+10&ie=UTF8&qid=1318260310
which one do you guys have experience with, and would recommend? the kingstons are just out of the question, as i doubt that they'd be worth twice the coin.
It would be nice if you narrow it down to specific cards.
Although there is to note that most people do not need anything past a class 4 which is more than enough to handle day to day transfer between phone and card.
Sandisk seems to be a darkhorse here since they don't really show you a class number and it ranges from 2 - 6 mbps. The best way is to simply test it out with a SD card testing program.
thanks for the response. specifically, i like the PNY and SanDisk, but like you said, sandisk is secretive about their speeds. i don't want to buy, test the speeds, and return if i'm not happy with it. and is class 10 not required for recording HD video on our phones? thanks again
nah, class 10 is not required to record HD video. besides if i remember correctly, the dz only records up to 720p. you should still be fine unless you're shooting a 20 minute video.
There are some reports from people with various issues with Class 10 cards. Its not widespread by any means (plenty of people here seem fine with their Class 10), but it seems that Class 10 have more issues than lower Classes. So some here will recommend Class 4 or 6 (can't remember which) as the highest you should get.
I'd stay far away from PNY if I were you. I've owned 2 PNY products. Not Micro-SD, but an SD card and a USB thumb drive. On the thumb drive, the USB port and memory chip pulled/broke right out of the plastic casing with regular use (not damaged in any way). The thing just looked and felt flimsy. But I needed one in a hurry for a business trip, and I bought what the store had. I figured, its a USB thumb drive, you can get these things for free. How bad can it be? And I was shocked when the thing actually broke apart after a few weeks.
Similarly, the PNY SD card I have split into 2 pieces (along its seams). In both cases (PNY thumb drive and SD card), the memory chip itself still worked fine, and it was just a matter of using some super glue to hold together the plastic casing that failed. But it just displays shoddy and cheap build quality. I own 3 Sandisk Micro-SD cards, and a couple Sandisk SD cards and thumb drives. Never had an issue with any of them, and build quality is much better than PNY.
There is a long thread in accessories with SD recommendations:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1042324
DUDE! I had the same problem with the PNY thumb-drive! It was the attache series I think. Anyways yea stick to well known brands that are consistently rated high, sandisk, kingston, adata, etc. Honestly though, class 6 would probably be the fastest you'd need unless your gonna be taking extremely high quality pictures at a very fast speed lol aka multi-shot. But then again I'm not sure our phone is even up too that anyways lol.
I have an ADATA 16GB Class 10 from newegg. Has given me zero issues. I would imagine this is probably the same for the 32gb version.
Not sure if the 32GB would hold up. I found out that I'm not that big of a packrat on the size of the SDcard, so I went with a 16gb instead of paying more for space I'd never use, or take years to accumulate.
h2testw 1.4 log after testing it out when I received it:
Warning: Only 15786 of 15787 MByte tested.
Writing speed: 15.1 MByte/s
Reading speed: 18.5 MByte/s
It was definitely a step up from the 4GB class 4 kingston I was previously using, which was getting write speeds of around 5-6mb/sec. After moving onto the Adata, I noticed speedier loading in the photo gallery like night and day. It used to take 2-3 seconds to load the gallery, especially if it was a big picture folder. Now it takes literally milliseconds to load the content. Of course, this may just be anecdotal and placebo effect, but my general experience with android and sdcards for the last 3 years is on the line about it.
actually i retract the kingston comment, i think they had problems with 32gb class 10 cards specifically now that i recall...

The Sandisk that came with my phone has the class 4 symbol printed on the card...
I'm thinking of getting a class 4 myself, don't feel like paying almost +100% for class 10. I'll probably get an A-Data, as it gives a decent price per GB. I'm just torn between 16 and 32 GB
As for Kingston, I think the quality of their products went down a lot in the last two years.

If you look through the thread I linked on my previous response, you will see there are some folks that claim more data corruption issues with 32 Gb cards versus smaller capacities. It seems purely anecdotal. But my point is, don't assume.

For me I bought this off ebay ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/380405008880?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 ) and it has been working great for me. I loaded it up to about 28Gig and had no trouble. Currently I have 10gig free.
I've got the Sandisk 32gb class 10.
But the one from Samsung seems great.
The SanDisk 64GB MicroSDXC is also fully compatible despite the device being a sdhc device. Apparently the protocol differences lie on code and not on hardware.

well. that is fantastic.. Maybe when the prices go down in a year i can get that to upgrade my 32gb card.
Hey everyone,
I'm thinking of getting a 32 microsd. Card for my S3. I was wondering if a class 10 is necessary or would a class 4 or 6 be sufficient?
Thanks.
Class 6 is sufficent I read somewhere that class 10 is good for taking pictures or something but for this phone class 6 is enough.
It depends on what you'll be doing. Personally, I'd go for a UHS-1 class card. They're just above class 10. Sandisk has a 32GB one for about $40 on Newegg.com. That's what I'm using right now. It has been awesome thus far.
uhs are useless for this phone, no phone on the market supports this feature.
just get the best you can afford, anything above class 4 is enough, but prices aren't much different, so a class 6 or 10 can be in reach.

That might be the case on the international version, but when I'm taking pictures my UHS card it certainly seems to record them faster on my US - AT&T version. I wonder if anyone has done any any read/ write benchmarks to see for sure.
But I do agree, unless you have a need for speed, anything over class 4 should be good for everyday use.

i standby what i said, no phone supports uhs, unless you can prove otherwise.
What about if you use it as USB mass storage? Or making backups
of it? Or it's still limited even though that?
i personally have about 10 class 10 16gbs, and around 12 class 10 32gb, and 4 class 6 64gbs. granted i use only 3 or 4 of them i just have a alot extra. i sued to work at best buy mobile and came up on a lot. couple months ago best buy sold a class 6 64gb online for $45. keep an eye out and look for deals. i do see a big difference in the class of cards. i usually have music and various roms and what not.
What about playing roms saved on sd cards would you notice a difference between class 6 and 10

it's not the card, it's the phone thats preventing the card to reach the limit.
a class 4-10 will work on the s3, you won't notice much of a differences.

if you want the fastest card on the market, but not for the S3, you only choice is the sandisk microsdhc extreme pro with upto 95mb/s transfer speed and only available so far 8GB and 16Gb.
or you can consider the adata microsdhc premier pro read 45mb/s and write 40mb/s available in 8gb, 16gb and 32gb.
as with both cards you need a uhs reader to reach the stated speed, otherwise you will only get max read 25mb/s and write 23mb/s which is the standard speed set for sdhc.
Class 6 is the sweet spot
Class 4 should be sufficient enough for normal phone use tho?
unless you are using DSLR perhaps?

Yea class 4 is fine
Class 4 - Good
Class 6 Excellent
Class 10 Overboard
Interesting post: UHS-1 cards may actually perform slower than class 10 in the S3.

I bought a SanDisk 32gb class 4 for $16.xx shipped on eBay. I only use it for music on on my phone. The ~16gb internal is more than sufficient for pictures and etc.

Its not exactly a common brand like sandisk though..
class 4 has faster ram, class 10 has faster sequential write speeds
class 4 is better for every day, random use
class 10 is better for downloads and recording/playback of large files and HD movies
