From what I know our 2gb SD card is class 6.
It may not be class 6 but it certainly isn't class 2 because the transfer speed is pretty good and problems would have appeared.
the card which comes with the phone is class 2
class 4 will be faster, class 6 will be even faster. (write and read)
The default card made in taiwan is class 4 or may be 6 the speed are higher around 5 mbps. But some cards are faulty. The class represents the mbps speed of the card like class 2 is 2 mbps class 4 is 4 mbps class 6 6 Mbps. Theres app called sdtools in market check it out. ( test sdcard and see what write speed it shows )

I got 8.6mbps write speed with SD Tools benchmark... Does this sound like a calss 2 card to you? I've had class 2 cards before and I'm pretty familiar with the slow speeds of those; this one doesn't compare.
If there is no number on the card within a circle then generally it is a class 2 card.

based on what I've read for the past couple of months many users have class 2 which had resulted in various problems. my speeds are around 2-3. and there's no number on the card. class 2. I'm getting an 8gb class 6 soon.
They provide different class of card to everyone. Some r lucky some not.

ok, thanks, so i will keep my default memory card.
for stats.
Writing speed: 6.5 MB/s
Reading speed: 17.8 MB/s
no class number on card.
Just how accurate is SD tools? I tried it on a 8gb transcend class 6 card and am getting
write - 11.7 mb
read 21.4
That seems pretty high right?
Well the class shows the minimum speed. So if you get high speed good for you.

Well, mine was class 0 a.k.a. no card included. Well, I do not complain since I got this brand new phone from Portugal for like $200 with a 2yrs warranty.
Then I bought a cheapo A-Data 8 GiB SD card and turns out I got this - quite happy if you ask me.
Just don't be happy about speed it's good but there's also latency (the root cause of reboots some users have).

Does any one know if Class 4 sd card work on vibrant. Im about to buy an 8gb class 4 sd card and wondering if anyone has or currently using a class 4 sd card on their vibrant?
Thanks.
Been using a 16Gb Class 4 Kingston MicroSD since I bought the phone, works perfectly. I dont see any reason you could not use a MicroSD up to class 10, even though it would be a waste of money. Class 6 is probably as high as you would want to go for performance/money sake.
thanks. just ordered a kingston 8gb class 4 micro sdhc for 12$
Fyi, the card that came with the vibrant is class 4

how long it takes to load and scan the sd card. class 6 is supposed to be faster.
is 32 gb sd card the max vibrant can handle?

As far as I know 32gb is the highest so far.

My class 10 Patriot 32GB loads about as fast as my class 6 16GB lexar if that means anything. Both open up quickly for music apps or gallery. Its just the initial reading after any boot that takes about a min or 2. Hope that helps reassure!
Hi friends,
I want to buy a 32gb micro sd card but didn't decide to its class. As you know most of our sd cards have class 4 speed but i wonder if class 10 boosts my desire z. I think i will move all my apps to sd. Would you buy class 10 and pay more or class 4 and pay less?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Class 10 is pretty much overkill. I would go with class 4 or 6. The speed of the SD card is regulated which can be fixed by an app in the market called SD Card Speed Booster. My gallery used to take forever to load...if it loaded at all. Now it loads instantly.
keep in mind that class affects only write speed, not read speed
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA Premium App
So it is better to buy class 4 one except of class 10...
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
class 10 is too much
I think 6 is enough for.
Even the difference between 4 and 6 class is pretty minimal in my own personal experience (a2sd & data++).
I currently have a 8gb class2 sdcard in my ace.. If i was to change this to an 8gb class10 or 16gb class10 would this speed up my phone..

Yes. Higher d class, faster d speed. Even im using an 8gb class 2 sd card with SD speed booster app.

It depends what you mean by faster, rom is on the phone so wont be effected. Read speed of things like gallery will.
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
Ur rite. But if ur moving ur Dalvik cache 2 SD, den u would need a faster memory(probably higher den class 2) coz class 2 doesn't deliver same speed as class 10.
After u move ur apps2sd card class 2 takes a little longer time 2 open compared 2 class 10 coz class 10 has more read/write speed.

Yup, especially if you move your apps to SD, just to mention the fact that card class means the speed of read/write, so class 2 is around 2Mb per second, and class 10 would logically have around 10 megs which is 5 times faster broadband.
But if you use your SD only for photos, videos and music, than it won't help a lot.
Its mainly boot up i want to speed up..
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
If you don't have any apps on your SD (via app2sd or CM7) than no, you can speed up boot through sripts like JIT (integrated into CM).
So, I've been reading everywhere here about sizes and different classes. What I'm most interested in is, how fast can the Galaxy S3 write to the sd card, better put the max write speed to the micro sd card? I want the fastest card available, but only if the phone will use it at max speed. Hope someone can give me an answer so I can order one tonight.
thanks for your help

so I guess there is no point in ordering something that is faster than a class 10, aww shucks :'(
I believe class 10 is the current fastest. I bought it since it was not too expensive at the time..

what does it benchmark outside the galaxy s3? Is it the same or higher?
SanDisk 64 GB Class 10
Can't help you there, sorry. I suppose it would not be vastly different though.
Sammy claim 24 read and 13 write. But file system overhead etc is perhaps not being accounted for. As it is though, records video fine and otherwise gives me no problems..

I tested on Sony vaio laptop that come with Ricoh PCIe memory slot, I got:
Write speed : 11.40 MB/s
Read speed : 22.77 MB/s
and based on previous result on s3 (W: 10.77 MB/s R: 17.92 MB/s) , the difference are:
Write speed difference : 0.63 MB/s
Read speed difference : 4.85 MB/s

Run that same "sd card tester" app on the internal memory. That should be representative of how fast it "can" be +/-
hope that helps,

EDIT: Example in post #10 of the test done on the internal memory, which in theory should be close to max capabilities; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29525785&postcount=10
EDIT2: I've attached my internal memory test (UBLF2 stock + root) and my Sandisk 64GB Class 10 / UHS 1 sd card tested in the SGS3 (stock format as it came out of the package)
How do you tell card class? What is the class of card that came with the Thunderbolt 32 gigabytes?
They usually have the class printed on them. Classes are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and UHS1 (SDXC). Most cards that come with phones are class 2 or 4. The number is usually printed in a circle.

Hi,
Any advantage to using a higher class on the note 2.
Thanks,

The class refers to the minimum sustained read/write speed the card is capable of. So a class 2 card can handle 2 MB/sec or higher read and write, Class 4 is 4 MB/sec, and so on. You could get a class 2 card that is capable of class 10 speeds, but there are no guarantees of it. The faster speeds will be good when something is reading/writing data to/from the SD card, think Gallery and Camera being the two big ones. It would be able to load pictures faster for gallery, and save the faster when taking them with the camera.
If it isn't printed on the card, move files to and from with windows and note you're Transfer speeds
