Ok so im thinking of buying a 32g sd for this phone cuz i really wanna put all my music on my phone and i have like 10g of music, wondering how well it would work, Ive bought an 8g and 16g sandisk at walmart and both have worked great, anybody using a 32g on their s2?? What kind? Thanks
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
I'm using one... the speed isn't great but for music and videos and also for nandroid backups and such, speed isn't so much of an issue. I got it on sale from Newegg (I think the brand was A-Data or something like that) for $40, but I got it a while ago.
I have a Samsung class 4 32gb and I only have like 3gbs left on it. I have used it for the last few months in my T989 with zero issues
Just bought an 32gb Class 10 Samsung micro SD from Amazon for $50. Swapped it into my phone this morning. No problems, speeds are class 10 or better (see pic using SD tools app).
i have both the 32 GB and currently using the 64 GB as my daily driver
they both runs great
the speed of the SD is not determined by size, but by its quality and Write Speed
there is a sticky with benchmarks you can see which cards performs better

I also use a 32gb sandisk class 4. It works fine. I put my spotify offline cache on it and rom and titanium app backups.

No problem with my 32GB Sandisk. About to jump onto the 64GB train
32gb all the way!
I bought 2 x 32GB cards (1for my GS2 and 1 for my gf's GS2) 28 each on ebay... Class 4 though, but works awesome. Great for titanium backups/music...going on vacation prob buy a 64GB for vid and pics.
I'm looking forward to the upcoming 128 GB microSD later this year
hope the prices are not insane, the price for the 64 GB i paid last year was pretty crazy already, if the 128 GB cost more than $300 i think i'll pass
I have a Samsung 32GB class 10 that I bought at frys for like a total of 35$ and havent filled it up. I put all my apps like mc3 asphalt 6 and all those big games on my sd card. And then I have like 16GB of music on my ext card and the rest I just use it for like nandroids, roms and theme back ups and and place for some video recording.

That's only a class 4. There were a couple deals with higher classes for around the same price. I would suggest going at least class 6. I think the max that our phone writes is 8? Not sure on that one.. I have a class 10 but i normally use a usb adapter to transfer files which is blazing fast compared to the data cable way.

SDXC allows for much faster data transfer when used with the appropriate devices. For our phones and anything that cannot handle them yet, they will just be much higher capacity and have about the same class 10 speeds of a normal micro sd card.

Yeah, it looks like SanDisk has switched over to labeling their Class 2 cards (which always performed at Class 4+ level) as Class 4, and also their Class 6 cards as Class 10 now. There still are only two tiers of SanDisk cards.
So now SanDisk cards are rated approximately correctly according to the standards, combating the Class inflation in advertising which has seemed to occur in other manufacturer's cards, while still cashing in on the general consensus that up to this point, SanDisk cards have always performed above spec. Better than buying a Class 4 which performs at Class 2 levels, but not as good as the little thrill of buying a SanDisk Class 2 and finding that it smokes the Class 6 from another manufacturer you already had.

EDIT: Never mind. It looks like I ordered the "Frustration Fee Packaging" version of the product by mistake. Don't like it. Seems like a fancy term for selling used merchandise that's missing original packaging.

I currently have an old 6gb SanDisk sdcard I got a few years ago which works well for me.
Although I've been wanting to upgrade to a 32 or 64gb sdcard. I've noticed people having issues with sdcards like the phone won't recognize or it unmounts rapidly.
I was wondering what you guys use that's most stable for you. Do you guys use SanDisk, Samsung, etc memory cards? Post model or anything that works.

Does it really matter on the class, I have always been confused by that.
Yeah as each class gets higher, it means the read and write speeds get faster. Class 2 is the lowest. Class 10 is the fastest. And there's
