Sandisk or Kingston - HTC EVO 3D

What SD came in your phone?
In mine it came with Sandisk but I was making a hard reset on another EVO 3D and it came with a Kingston, the phone is acting weird, it is his second replacement, maybe it has something to do with the SD?

Mine came with a Sandisk 8GeeBee Class 4. Sandisk is a well respected name in flash memory.
Kingston is good. Not quite on par with Sandisk.
I recently bought a PNY 16GB Class 10 (after reading reviews from other EVO 3D owners) so that I can use the DConfig in Synergy to move Dalvik to SD card. Guess we will see how that works out.
I have seen consistent statements across numerous threads from here, PPCGeeks, AndroidForums, etc about the how the quality/speed of the SD card affects performance. Not to be taken lightly!

Firmbiz, I have tried PNY, San Disk and Lexar SDs and all seemed to work to varying degrees. I just upgraded to a 32GB Class 10 TOPRAM micro SDHC and it works fantastic. Great write and read speeds. Have used it in my EVO 3D and a 2nd one in my Asus Transformer and have zero complaints at all. Before this purchase I have never tried TOPRAM but I don't see myself ever going back to PNY, San Disk or Lexar. Just my 2 cents.

speaking of sd cards. i too have noticed the 8gb filling up hella fast! i dont really have anything on it but i only have 1.5 gigs left!
on the upgrading front, 32gb is the way to go. but the class is my question.
class 10 or class 6? does it really make that much of a difference? i.e. is a 10 $40 faster than a 6?

---

anybody? class 6 or class 10?

I've ben using the Patriot 16gb class 10 for about a week. Its fast and no stability issues.

I don't think a 10 is needed unless you are copying huge files. Performance wise you probably won't notice a difference visibly between the 2. Class 6 is plenty for a phone. Save the extra cash for a nice case or something. I have a class 6 adata card & it is just as fat as my patriot class 10. They both write at around 8mb/s. Don't get patriot brand because they do not perform to their rating. If a card is rated 6 it could still write at 10 speeds. Its class rating is usually the minimum write speeds.

I got the kingston 16geebee class 10 card when it first came out. I spent 100 bucks on it and after 2 replacements, the write speed has never been 10mB/s. it will hover between 2-5mB/s when I'm copying over roms or movies. NEVER get this card its a waist of money. I've also had many pictures corrupted because of it. however, I've seen other class10's that blow **** outa water. they are fast. imo its not a waist of money, as long as you dont get the ****ing kingston
