bro most memory card is sdhc....its just SD high Capacity...if u have more than 4 gb...all are sdhc i think..
And i really dont know why people are using class 10 cards for phones, i think its for dslr and video cameras which require fast writing speed. IMO class 6 is enough for phones. (P.S : Correct me if i am wrong.)

Almost all smartphones these days support upto 32 GB. SDHC means Secure Digital High Capacity, and @ansebovi you are right all memory cards with a memory of 4GB-32GB are SDHC. And our phone will support all SDHC cards. What our phone doesnt support is SDXC cards,its SD Xtended Capacity,used for 64GB+ cards.
@SK:) Its upto you to use the memory card of your choice. If you can afford Class 10 SD cards then its fine, I use a Class 4 SD as its enough for my use. But if you plan on swapping(which in this phone's case,is not really needed) then higher the class the better it gets.....

because i use memory card for swapping,saving app in sd than internal sd....internal sd speed is high...
so to compensate than speed we may need class 10,,..since i m using more than 100apps which are stored in sd..if i use class 6...my phone will lag...since it cant read from sd with high speed.....
price of 32gb class 10 is 1500rs
price of 32gb class 6 is 1350rs
with just 150rs u can get 2xspeed...
now understand?

Yeah KINGSTON would be fine but SanDisk would be better because I am using it and it got nice write\read speeds, excellent for swapping, no lags. But still it's my personal opinion, so go with the one u like

Yes it will after swapping your external memory becomes internal and vice-versa and then you will be able to install games directly to your swapped internal memory without using folder mount or gl2sd.

I have been using Kingston 64 GB UHS1 Class10 SDXC card

Sandisk's performance (PC copying speed) is far better than Kingston.

Yes dude. 64GB will work almost all devices. (maybe 128, 256...etc)
Even very-lower end phones and basic phones.
But couldn't get its full potential.
I mean we have to use it under FAT32 file system.
I am using windows on my PC, so I don't know about Linux & ext partitions.
If your handset doesn't shows an option to format it, you could use third party partition tools on your PC or even your handset itself.

I wanted to let anyone looking for a micro sd about a deal i found. I found a Patriot Memory 16gb micro sdhc class 10 for $39.99 on www.CompUSA.com I think i'm going to order one after reading here on xda that patriot makes a pretty reliable sd card. I haven't ever used a patriot memory product so i only know what guys on here have posted. anyone make sure you check into the company on your own. They have the wintec 32 gb class 10 for $84.99 too!
apparently class10 cards are no good for phones, take a look at this link
yeah you dont want to spend all the money on something that might not work right?
I had read here on xda that the class of the sd card doesn't matter but the size(gb) is what matters with phones. like my SE X10 is only compatible with up to 16gb of external memory. Is that not correct? Can anyone clear this up for me?
X10's are compatible with up to 32gb microSD cards, I've got one in mine.
The size is important as you want to buy an SD card that works for the content that you intend on putting on it. If you have a lot of MP3s and videos, take a lot of pictures and shoot a lot of videos then obviously you are going to want at least a 16gb SD card.
The class does indeed matter. If you have hundreds or thousands of images then a class 2 card would take ages for them to all load in the Gallery. Or if you use App2SD at all a class 2 card wouldn't be able to keep up with the reading and writing and the app would be sluggish.
A class 10 card in my opinion is a bit excessive, I'd personally go for a class 4 or 6.

This is very true. I have a class 2 card and loading thumbnails for artists/albums is painfully slow in mediascape. I would go for a 32 GB if you are a music fan. I have a 1800 songs on my X10 and its already full. Class 4/6 should be good, class 10 is a little excessive.

Just take the card out of the phone. There should be a 'C' printed on the card and there will be a number inside the 'C'. This is the class of your card.
I was using stock 8 GB class 2, I brought Team 16 GB class 10. Difference in performance is noticeable.
I have a class 10 8gb card and it works way better than the stock card.
Just make sure you tweak your read_ahead_kb.. Search for SD card speed improvement or speed increase.
In general, Class 4 or 6 are good enough for the application usage by phone, such HD video and phones.
I tested my Class 4 sd card, it able to transfer ~5.5mb / sec, not bad.
Yes, when price come down, I will get a Class 100 sd card too.
cheers
I'd rather the class 200.
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
Class 10 significantly improves the performance.
Honestly it does not matter if someone is using the SE stock rom...however since I have tried the awesome ROM created by wolfbreak...my apps stored in sd was very sluggish...had to buy a class 10 16 gig to improve the performance...
Just got a 16Gig class 4 card...goto to play with data2sd and see the quadrant!!!!!!

If you get a real kingston class 10 you will get five times the speed of a low spec class 2 generic sd card.

Real Class 10 SD cards work at 10MB/s of data transfer speed.
Class 2=2MB/s
Class 4=4MB/s
Class 6=6MB/s
Class 8=8MB/s
Class 10=10MB/s
The best are as said by others Kingston and Sandisk.
I've a Sandisk class 6 card and i get near 5,5MB/s of data transfer.
Mine is still 8gb, i want to buy another but in Brazil it's very expensive, the taxes are very high.
Got the Wintec Filemate 16gb class 10 for just under $40 at Frys Electronics and it's given me no problems. Used it in my NookColor running tons of apps and music from it without a hitch. Now it's in my X10 and with using the SD Speed Up tools, it helped alot.

I bought a new Sandisk Micro SDHC 32GB UHS1 to increase a write/read speed to/from sd-card. But the problem is the sd-card steadily unmounted when I listen to the music or watch the movies. I think it‘s because of the class of the sd-card.
Can anyone confirm that this doesn‘t happen with the other class of the sd-card (with the same capacity of 32GB)?
I‘ll be very grateful for this.

I have a 32gb class 4 SanDisk MicroSD HC card, and I've actually never had any card issues at all, ie unmounting, corrupting, or anything weird. I've seen higher class 32gb cards, but I know how rare it is to have a microSD that doesn't ever give you any problems, so I'm sticking with my slower class 4 that has never let me down since I started using it about 5 months ago.
Well, I found the problem. Our devices are compatible only with microSD cards that have 2.0 interface like classes 2-10. UHS1 cards have a new 3.01 interface, therefore our devices don‘t support the new interface.

I agree. With my Sandisk 32gb (Class 4), I formatted it as FAT32 with 64kb clusters from a card-reader on my PC.
I had unmounting issues as well, but I believe I incorrectly disabled something when I was debloating my Nitro...Once I started using CM9 though, the unmounting issues went away.
* If your Nitro is stock, then I would suggest trying to format your card from a PC and trying again.
* If you're rooted, stock rom and did some debloating yourself...Try getting your phone back to stock and see if you still have issues
* If you're rooted and would like to try a new ROM, definitely try CM9, that will take care of the bloat and potentially the unmounting issues.
Hmmmm I just bought a UHS-1 card, haven't opened it yet. Is this phone for sure unable to take advantage of it?

Try heading to http://www.sdcard.org and download the SD Card formatter. Format the card and see if it makes a difference (Needs to be done from a Laptop/PC). I know I had to do this with one of my external SD Cards and it started working again, but I did not have the same problem as you.
Is anyone using a class 10 micro SD card on Xperia PRO?..
I'm interested in knowing if there's any significant improvement in performance and user experience... specially for installing apps in a second partition of the SD card (I use link2sd, but any other alternative should be a good reference)...
Also, please state what ROM you are using and what's your experience.
Thanks in advance!.

Hi everyone, I Saw this card for the first time today and got one, the cost was around 40% higher than the Ultra 64GB!
after using both the original SanDisk Ultra 64GB (with 10 MB write speed) and the new Samsung pro 64Gb (with 20 MB write speed).. I guess we have a new King in town
The benchmarks speak for them self with a write speed of 60 mb/sec and read of 90 mb/sec!
Where did you buy it from?

What does the SanDisk Extreme® microSDHC™/microSDXC™ UHS-I 64GB card come formatted as???
Is it formatted as exFAT like the SanDisk Ultra 64GB?
If one should reformat the microSD Extreme® 64GB card to FAT32 does this impact the performance such as cluster size and alignment,
Then when one purchases an Android phone that supports exFAT, would a simple Windows 7 exFAT format be enough, or is there a bespoke SanDisk format that can not be restored if the card has been previously formatted as FAT32.
The reason for all these questions is I'm running a SanDisk Ultra 64GB in an olde XPERIA X10i formatted as FAT32 and 32KB cluster size, so I'm wondering if I could do the same with a SanDisk microSD Extreme® 64GB card.
wow... this is very huge sdcard memory capacity!
very great
