I currently have a stock 8GB class 2 in the phone and i'm thinking of getting a class 6. I'm pretty much using 7 out of 8GB so i can manage it but it's getting rather close.
The 16GB one would cost me almost 60€ and that's a lot! The 8GB one would be only about 19€.
I didn't try ebay, maybe i could find something there. But given the price difference i think i'll stick with 8GB, what do you think?
The main reason i post here is to ask if there's going to be a NOTICEABLE difference in opening a gallery full of pictures, and picture saving time after taking a shot with the camera?
The HD recording is just a plus here, i just want the galery/shots taking to be faster. Anyone with experience?
thanks
EDIT: ok i've found this one on ebay and it has a USB reader so that i can still use my class 2 8gb as a usb stick so that's a money saver.
I've never had any experience with this company "Team", are their cards any good?
I bought a Kingston 16GB class 10
Not a big deal, almost the same performance!

wow, that sucks...
anyone with a different experience?
Well I bought it from eshop.gr and paid it 99 euros, it's 100% original but the phone itself can't handle faster chips, the difference is not that much, you might consider buying a 4 class which is by far cheaper!
i think i'll just get a class 6 8gb for 20$ and stick with that, that way i'll just use my old class 2 8gb in an adapter as a memory stick

Configure "app to SD" then you will notice the difference. For normal use, class 2 is more than enough.

for normal use, it sucks! i need to wait at least one minute for the gallery to open because of all my photos, isn't that because of a slow SD card? correct me if i'm wrong...
Be carefull when buying SD cards from Ebay. I bought an 8GB class 6 card once (no brand, from Hong Kong) and it turned out it's not really class 6 at all, more like class 2 or 4 (low transfer speeds). The class 6 card that came with my X10 is a true class 6 card (transfer speed of 6 MB/s).
I'm not saying all SD cards on Ebay are fake, but alot probably are (fake as in not the class they advertise).
heh, i already ordered one
it's from a top rated seller so i hope it'll be ok
thanks for the heads up
I have a class 6 16 gig, i did have a class 4 8 gig and i could not play need for speed as the game would freeze. now the game plays no problem with the class 6 card.
what does an SD card have anything to do with it?

Did anyone tried Micro SDHC 32GB card with X10 after 2.1 Eclare Update?
I asked Sony Ericsson support about 32GB SD card support after 2.1 but they did not give me a satisfactory answer and according to them only 16GB SD card works on X10.

are you using the kingston 32gb class 4?
I bought (on my own risk) a micro SD HC-4 32 Gb Kingston one month ago (on 1.6 Donut) Now i have Eclair 2.1 on my Xperia X10 and the SD card 32 Gb works well.
I haven't any problems during this time.

the class reprezents the speed of your memory card
I bought a 32GB Kingston Class 4 and it keeps unmounting itself and overall lose contact with the phone but it works perfect in he PC.
I have done a 32GB filer verification so it's not a counterfeit 8GB in a 32GB disguise.
But I keep having trouble with it once it's in the phone.
It's a HTC Legend with BlaYo ROM
I have exactly the same micro SDHC (32 CB class4 Kingston) in a XPERIA X10 and it functions perfect. Try format with MiniToolPartitionWizard under Windows. Success!
I'm using a 16GB Class 10. Transferring songs are plainly drag and drop.
If you opt for speed over capacity, go for 16GB C10 instead. I'm using the Transcend one at 14MB/s writing speed. (priced at 33USD)
Well uh, why do you need 32GB for a phone?
what a question ))

I'm using one Transcend 16gb class 10 card, i can tell some things:
On the usb adapter it can WRITE at up to 16~20MB on linear writing and READ up to 22~25MB on linear reading.
This cards rocks, i had a sandisk 8gb class 6 mSD and will never regret this change.
This time i can get real HD recordings as before i would sometimes give me some small breaks when recording if for some reason anything tried to access the card at the same time.
By the way most class 6 cards record actually between 4~6MB!

Music just comes from speakers/headphones. No lag for me, so don't worry about the speed.
Says the person who has Class 4 16GB SDcard.
sorry i am a newbee..but could u tell me how to know whether the card is class 4 or 6 will it be written on memory card cover? or it depends on company which manufacture it?
It will be printed on card.(look for a big C numeral will be inside it)
Class 4 is sufficient. Class 6 is gud nd economical. Im using class 4 8gb, no issues

Time to report back!
Well I got a 32GB San Disk Class 4 and...it's brilliant...the music library doesn't need any time to load...it's all ready...and after synching music, it only has to load what's changed (sounds simple, but not all devices are do that, trust me!) so I'm very happy with it...the bottleneck so to speak is now the Sony music app...it doesn't connect very well to Media Go. I'll save that moaning for the right thread lol
p.s. there are many threads on here about testing the diffferent class performance of SD cards and Class 4 San Disk was by far the best...other class 10s did not perform better reading and writing...they performed worse. Very happy with class 4. I got it on ebay for 23€ by the way, too expensive in the shops.
it depend on brand also. scandisk class 4 higher speed than other brand with the same class.

Whatever you do don't use Sony Media Go to transfer music ... it keeps duplicating songs on my SD and screwing other stuff up...I've given up on it for now. Songbird does a good job.

No I believe the phone officially supports only up to 32GB...beyond that is risky.

1. Yes, max 32GB. Doesn't matter which type.
2. Yes.
Well true is normal micro sd have max 2gb microsdthc 4-32gb theses 2 formats are oficialy supported. Also few guys trying use sdxc (64gb and above) on multiple android device include xperia mini and when theses card are formated in phone on fat32 file system they just work but not with full speed. I see also from some1 sdxc need other votage and this use is risk. I try find this info later and maybe i test it self.

Both the brands are awesome....But class 4 is obviously better than class 2 for android....My Sandisk 16 Gb Class 4 MicSD gives a read speed of about 14 MB/sec and write speed of 5-6 MB/sec......
SanDisk is more known, also class 4 is faster.
Sent from my Xperia Live using xda premium.
hmm, but transcend normally cost more than sandisk here, class 2 transcend 16gb is almost at the same price on sandisk 16gb class 4 so i thought transcend has more quality than sandisk,
I personaly use also 16gb class 2 trascend about 3 years already without any problem first in SE elm now in my mini. But my opinion when you buy new is buy even faster or maybe even biger coz lifetime microsd is great and you can use it in many phones. Anyway speed in phone is for any action enouhg for me now and never got any problem with memory from trascend (i using from trascend now microsd,normal sd, ram, flash disc)
Sent from my ST15i using XDA
Guys don't forget that the speed class only describes the write speed of the card.
Most cards, I mean even class 2, are fast enough at reading speed for usual use.
For good writing performence you should buy a class 10 card even if the price is higher.
Its a big difference copying for example 700 mb with 10 mb or only 2 mb writing speed.

I agree! I had a Kingston 8Gb class 4 and then I bought one Samsung 8Gb CLASS 10 and I was amazed. Copying series, movies, backups and Roms to my phone is really fast.

Forget brands, its the class that matters
Well I went over to the accessories section and found threads on this...they are REALLY serious about this stuff there....the bottom line here, and in other fora is that the San Disk Class 4 is perhaps the best out there. People claim (and show pictures proving) that it has beaten higher class SD cards. I went for this one and am very happy...it beats expectations. I agree it's mostly more about class rather than brand, but brand can affect things sometimes.
I bought a Kingston 16MB class 4 for my x10mp, and the phone kept hanging up. Sent it back as a defect and got another one, but I had the same problem with that one, too. Sent it back for a refund. Bought a Sandisk 16MB class 4 and haven't had any problems with it. I'm not sure about the '11 xmp, but brand did matter on my old phone.

Aren't speed classes for the microsd cards themselves and have nothing to do with the device loading them? Or are you asking up to what class will the s3 support?

You might want to go for the fastest class you can afford. This way, when you plug in the sd card in your computer you will be able to load it up quickly.
I really don't like waiting to finish a 30gb dump of data due to a slow sd card.
