Micro SD cards - HTC EVO 3D

I see the the 3D comes with a 8GB class 4 card. I am currently using a 16GB class 2 card in my EVO I stole from my wifes epic. This maybe a silly question as of yet but does anyone know if the phone will truely need class 4 or will I be fine using a class 2?

i doubt that it would "need" a class 4.. its mostly your preference.. i prefer a class 4 over 2 any day.. i was planning on putting my 4gig class 4 in to replace the 8gig that came in the phone if it was a class 2.. i like having the improved speeds on the card..

My bad guys. I went to RS to look for 3D cases last night <insert I can't wait joke here>. I asked if they had any 32 GB cards and they said no. I was over by the camera section when I asked and a girl at the counter held up a package and said it was 16 GB. I would have looked at the class if I was actually planning to buy. I already have a 16 GB class 6 for my Hero. I never actually saw what class it was.
Anyways, I found this deal right now on Google Shopping. 16 GB for 24.99 PNY brand Class 10.

That's the one I got last week. Anyway the class 4 will make a difference vs class 2 in recording videos and speed of recording pictures. Some cameras will only record 30 second clips of HD video unless you have a class 4 or higher inside, and there is a reason for that.

I have it, but haven't tested the speeds yet. In fact it's still sitting brand new in the package. I didn't even want to put any of my non evo 3d stuff on it.

Hmm, I've been looking for a cheap class 10 32gb.
They also have a class 4 32gb sandisk for the same price. Looks like I'm going with the PNY.
Not bad for 59.99 but I didn't like how its only rated at 10mb/sec write speed. I went for the Adata one instead which is rated at 17mb/sec write speed for $10 more.
Sadly they're both out of stock again
Adata: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211558
PNY: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820178381
And Aznmode is correct, the Adata model is rated at 17mb/sec on writes where the PNY model is 10mb/sec on writes. For only $10 more I'd definitely go with the faster Adata.
I've been using the PNY card for about the last month. It works well - my only complaint is that it doesn't appear to actually be class 10. Testing in the phone - and testing in a card reader, the best write speeds I could get were consistently between 7 to 8 mb/sec.
I've been able to play 1080P clips flawlessly with diceplayer though - so I ended up keeping the card. I've seen no instances where the lesser speed held me back.

Wow glad I ordered mine last week (just received this morning) and it was only $69.99. I bet now that we got s-off and nand backup and roms require a lot more space now that 32gb are being purchased left and right. Anyway reading from the reviews some are getting write speed of 15mbps on the Adata which is awesome.
Thanks for the great find, I just ordered one. It's gonna' be great to finally not have to worry about filling my 16gb card with nandroid backups, or theme's/apk's.
Hopefully this card works great, my 16gb hasn't given me any problems, but it's time to upgrade = )
What program are you guys using to test card speed. I downloaded SD Tools from the Market and it doesn't read right. I have a class 2 that reads 10mbps but take a while to finish while my class 10 adata gets the same 10mbps but finishes fast.

Awesome Deal on 16 GB MicroSD

Looking to get a decent sized MicroSD for your Evo? I found a great deal for ya. It's 16 GB card, granted, it's only a Class 2, but it's yours for just $17.98. (shipping/taxes included)
I'm not the one selling it, it's today's Daily Steal.

Not bad....Thanks for the heads up,I just ordered one..since i took the 16gb card from my old samsung epic which now has a 8gb but not any more
Ulllllllllllltttrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wasn't it said way back that class 4 is recommended for stability reasons, which is why the stock card us class 4 in the 3d.....
Stock was class 2 in og EVO
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
i would not use a class 2 on the 3vo the sd will be so slow i have a 16g class 4 and it is slow for me which is why i bought a class 10 16g on amazon for i think about 25 bucks
With BootManager writing roms to SD, and our so so Input/Output, a class 2 is not a wise choice for our device. For only a few more $ one can find a class 6 SD card, also 16 GB. You just need to search around. Ebay and Amazon can be sketchy sometimes but read through feedbacks. If the item looks to good to be true, then it is, lol. Heck, our device comes stock with a class 4, thats sprint shelling out a few more $ because it needs it. Not because they felt like giving.
I don't think I could ever go back to anything less than a class 10 after having this 32 GB A-Data class 10 card.

I agree... this card sucks for using it on the E3D...
I just bought this for my samsung epic,which is not activated and only use it for 256 to 320 kbps mp3's music.It might take a little bit of time to scan but it is suffice for my needs
Other than that, Stay away from this card
Eh, I know it's a slow card, but to be honest, it'll do what I want it to, and it's a nice enough size

SanDisk Ultra 32gb $58.95

At B&H Photo Video, very reputable seller, free shipping via snail mail. The SanDisk Ultra cards are rated class 6 but outperform most class 10s in read and write speeds, including the Samsung cards (I need to understand the class rating system a little better). Worth checking out! Great, reliable name..great seller. Don't get ripped off out there folks... Lots of junk cards and ripoffs (counterfeits), especially on Ebay. Anywho, best price I could find for these cards. Hope it helps. All we need is the darn AT&T Note to put it in! bhphotovideo.com
This performance study was done a few months back...before SanDisk Ultra 6 appeared. SanDisk claims up to 30mbs read time on the 6, a bit less on the write time, better than most, if not all, class 10s

Where are you getting your information from? Show me evidence where an android phone performed better with a class 10 card than a class 2-6.
The only time you will ever notice the speed difference between a class 4 and a class 10 microsdhc card is when you use it in a DSLR camera that can optimize the speed. Cell phones can't. You are wasting your money buying a class 10 card.

If you are planning on buying memory cards from eBay you run the risk of getting a counterfeit. Its happened before to me and a lot of other users here. Just exercise caution.
Look people, I don't want to see anyone get taken advantage of or mislead with erroneous information. If you are using a DSLR camera or high speed camcorder you are not going to see the difference between a class 4 and class 10 card. Save yourself some money and piece of mind and buy a class 4 or 6 card from one of the reputable vendors online. Unless you like throwing away your money.

I had a samsung 8gb class 4 card that came with my htc inspire 4g I like to take alot of files to and from work and wanted to put all my apps on a card also so I got a PNY 32gb class 10 card and I noticed alot of speed difference in how fast files transfer and apps run off the card seem to run better than off the class 4 so for $50 I think it was well spent I'm happy with it
forums like these have taught me that i dont need to spend the extra coin on a Class 10...tx to many for that lesson.
when i have the Note in hand, i plan on buying a Class 6 even tho many preach a Class 4 is fine
Simple...just get a standard class 4 32GB microSD card. You can get them for as cheap as $30 on Amazon...basically $30-40 range.
Either Sandisk or Transcend kind will be fine.
And definitely exercise extreme caution if you order any of them from ebay...especially since those HK-based vendors have been known to sell false merchandise.

I paid a little over $30 for my Sandisk 32gb class 4 on Amazon, and it actually out-performs my Sandisk 8gb class 6, so I'm fine with that.
I got a 32gb class 4 from newegg for 32 bucks. Don't kno how much better a class 6 performs but a 32gb class 4 will do fine for me.

Class defines minimum write speed to the card (if there are no other bottlenecks like USB 1.0). A Class 4 card will write at a minimum of 4MB/s. For me this card averages 4.9MB/s write on a test.

You are correct sir, typo - I meant the 16GB.
Like I said, I'm a light user, even with a ton of videos and pics on my OG Evo after TWO YEARS I still have 4.33GB left.
Is this class 10 speed?
I bought a class 6 card last month. The extra speed would be nice. I wonder if it would speed up the continuous shooting mode. After I take the pics it does take a few seconds to write them to the sd card.

In a few months the price will probably be $60ish with an occasional deal less than that. Really won't see much of a price drop until the next tier of cards comes out.
$60 is a good price for this right now. I have a class 2, 16 GB right now so the upgrade makes sense for me. If I had a 32 GB like you, I'd probably wait too.
