Micro SD choices - EVO 4G Accessories

OK I'm in the hunt for a 32GB class 10 SD card. I have been reading a lot about one called Komputerbay. Seems as though it may be made by Samsung or for Samsung. All the reviews that I have found seem to be pretty consistent, however, these reviews are like any other review, you just read them. No response from people in real time. I want to direct my question to those that I can trust and have direct contact with in real time. Does anyone have any info on this product? Or have any suggestions, or recommendations? 16 or 32GB not really a concern. Main concern is speed class 6 or 10, who has the true tested speed? TIA for all who help.
EDIT
I have also found one called 3C Pro, any info here too? thanx

Komputerbay is nothing to do with Samsung.
It's a SD card adapter see here
You can see the speed test here for the class 10

Not a very smart idea to use a class 10 on the OG evo. Its meant to only be compatible with cards up to class 4.

Don't trust eBay. I remember reading that someone bought a 16gb SD card that turned out to be only a 1 gig. Try amazon.
This is my signature.

either way, be careful. Make sure whoever you buy from has, literally, thousands of sales and at least 98% positive feedback.

None, they're all expensive... Ball park numbers 100 bucks, save yourself money, buy a wintec 16gb for 29 dollars...best thing I ever bought, class 10 and if it goes bad or comes bad, you exchange with the given warranty, you can't lose out...fortunately my first ones been great for 4 months now
Microcenter has a patriot lx class 10 high speed micro sdhc for 69.99. I can't post a link because I don't have enough posts yet , but pretty easy to find at their site.

Check ebay.. I just purchased a 32gb Class2 from there for 40$. That was including shipping. It was brand new in box never been used. Seller reported he opened and formatted for his and buyers protection. Been using for a week and its reacts better then the original 8gb card that came with my evo.. So.. I mean you just really gotta look around..
FYI, its a cell phone you really dont need a HIGH class for it. Your not going to NEED mass data movement speeds.

Really? If all you needed was a "phone" then why don't you have a flip phone? The faster cards will come in handy when using apps you've stored on the card. If you decide to do that in the future.

Ive owned many phones. And the phone and card does what i need ty.. And i know how to look at a sellers rating on what to buy..
FTY forum rules pretty much say live and let live.. If you dont got nothing nice to say then dont say anything at all.. I was putting positive information towards the discussion. Id appreciate in the future if some people would have some common sense before posting.

{ Can I } extend to 32GB SD ?

can I use a 32gb SD card in my device ?
thanks ^^^
you sure can! i am using one now. sandisk class 4. bought it for 29.99 and a 1 day sale! works great along with my internal card!
I'm using one too. Just a note, the internal memory registers to apps as the SD card, while the SD card is located as a folder inside that marked External_SD. I had to redirect a few apps to there to find their data.

Yeah it's really expensive here is the price:
64GB $219.99
but are you sure it can? cause from what I've read SGH-T989 is designed to take up to 32GB's only... I'm curious if it can really take more than that set value of 32GB's. You will see this if you read the owner's manual of the phone
there are many confirmations and videos that have shown it can, even on old HTC and Samsung devices, or many other phones
as for the price, if you think about it
2x 32GB $100 = 1x 64GB $200
so it's just like buying 2 card, but you can use them together at the same time instead of having to take out the back cover + case to swap the SD cards

I bought this and I couldn't be happier. Media loads instantly in the music player as well as gallery. If you look around on our forums there's a speed study where they found that this was the fastest card (for random access). Even better value than the class 10.

straight from Sandisk website
none of the Warehouse Suppliers / Dealers carry them, not in USA not in Canada
probably they figure no one is crazy enough to pay $200+ for a SD card

basically, with a format of the card, its possible, however the speeds may be bottlenecked by the device itself, not the card.... and from what i read, it should be compatible with ALL micro sdxc cards!! also works on the evo 4g, htc sensation, and galaxy s I

Lexar 16 gig Class 10

So I just ordered a Lexar 16 gig Class 10 SDHC off of Ebay. It cost 20.50 with free shipping and handling. It had some pretty okay specs listed. Has anyone every tried this brand of sd card? I figured for the price it can't be that bad

Haven't heard anything really negative about Lexar, so hopefully it's good.
But you have to be careful with those cards off of ebay, you can often get fakes. Make sure you check it right when you get it (use something like what's discussed here: How to spot a fake SDHC card... I believe there are also apps in the market).
Again, hopefully it'll be all good, but if there's any trouble, hopefully you can report it to ebay and get a refund.
Thanks bud! Will do! I heard of fake items like SD cards and batteries on there but the seller seemed pretty authentic. Worse comes to worse I'll return it

Thanks for the link, definetly good info. I'll be checking my card tonight.
Finally came in today at about noon. So far so good. Seems snappy. I'm going to run a speed test and post the results
So it is a legitimate learn card? I got 16gb class 4 thinking it'd be fast enough but it's not. Time to upgrade again
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
I am looking into one of the class 10 as well, currently on a 16gb class 4, and i cant tell a speed difference from the Class 8 i had in previously, i think its worth the investment, just makes things like the gallery and titanium run faster

Awesome if you have Amazon Prime!
The one with the adapter is like $1 more.
Actually the one in OP is class 4 whereas the one on amazon is class 1? I believe.. its not marked so I'm assuming that's what it is.
In that, the OP is a far better deal.

Nice. I got a 32gb refurb off of Taday's Steal for $20. So far so good.
Patriot Memory seems to be hit or miss, but most class 10's seem to be like that.
Check newegg for the reviews.
Amazon has it for 31.
Or with adapter for 33.
Woops, guess I can't post links, but it's easily enough searched for.

It's because you are a newbie (like me). After 8-10 posts you may post links.
Just thought I would let everyone know that the hit or miss 32GB Patriot class 10 is back on sale with a MIR of 20 dollars making the total to 25+taxes. From the SOUND of it, they might have shaped back up and reduced failure rates on these cards.
It's on newegg, would post a link, but obviously can't.

I just bought and received a Samsung 32gb Class 10 SDHC card that tested at the correct speeds for $51.00 on amazon.
You can get burned really easily buying dirt cheap SD cards off of Ebay and Amazon. As the old saying goes, "If it sounds too good to be true; it normally is." There are tons of counterfeit and fake cards on those sites.
I hate to say it but the same Samsung card is selling for 35+tax+ship on frys right now til thursday.

I don't get it...there are a few class 10 32GB SDHC cards on newegg regularly priced like this. What's the big deal? Is Samsung normally more costly?

Generally, Samsung cards are of very high quality. Not sure if you've ever used one but they are very reliable and are made to work. The class you pay for is the class you get.
There are other reputable card manufacturers of course, but with the widespread availability of them now, there is a much higher risk of a fake or being duped with a low class one.
As far as I know, rip off samsungs are rare if even in existence. I could be wrong.
As someone said Samsung makes good quality card, and this one is Class 10 so its speedier. I don't understand the shock/water resistent bit. Isn't flash memory shock resistent by nature?

I own this card and it is specifically rated for 1080p vid plaback and top transfer rates. You have to look beyond that someone stammped "Class 10" on thier card. If you don't believe me, buy a Wintech card and tell me how its treating you when your data is just gone one day and the card cannot be reformatted.
I payed $50 for this card and it is worth every penny.

Aside from phones, Sdc cards are used in cameras. Some of those cameras go unser water and some are mounted on the helmets of xtreme sports participants.

Got my card in the mail today. What kind of speed test results do you get (using SD Tools)? I'm showing 5.1MB/s write and 8MB/s read. I also don't see any "card info" when in SD Tools. Was hoping I could see manufacturing information and a serial to prove this isn't a fake Samsung...
Real-world writing yields about 10MB/s write.
I always thought Micro SD cards were faster... then I remembered that just full-sized SD and CF are even remotely fast!

Be careful with this item!! Just read the reviews and it's apparently a fraud!
Fantastic find, I'd buy it if I didn't already have a 16 GB SD card...
Got my card today I am really happy that I bought this. It came unopened with it's original samsung packaging. Comparing with the one I bought from amazon... check the pics below.
Mistaken entry.
Ordered mine about 4/5 days ago and received it today. Although I had a 16GB (not from Samsung) and didn't use all of it up, I still went ahead and got this. Can't go wrong with it, glad I got it.
I got 10.22MB/s writing and 32.16 MB/s reading using the SD Card Tester app.
Transferring music over seems to be a lot slower than it was using my 2gb card though. Is there a preferred way of introducing a new sd card to the android operating system?
