I like the Sandisk 16GB Class2 or Class 4 you can get on Amazon for about $20.00.
If you can get the real version, it performs above the class rating and provides plenty of storage.
I also like the Lexar microsd cards, but they cost more.
Capacity is really up to you, depends on what you plan to use it for. You can use that space for music, videos, photos, ect...

Like all phones, it depends on you. How much do you need for storing all your stuff? Honestly, I was doing okay with a 2gb card until I got an 8gb card. Both gave me the same insufficient feeling. I always have the same memory available(about 300mb) with any amount I use.
@mike and titan.. thanks for your answer... whats the different class 2 and class 4? .and it is fast like copy and paste?, not to much loading to browse in phone?

To learn about what class ratings are supposed to be look at this link...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital#Speed_Class_Rating
In a nutshell, it's the minimum sequential read/write speed the sd card can achieve.
Unfortunately, the class rating doesn't tell the whole story, there are card that perform much faster than their class rating. Also, many of the cards perform at very slow speeds in random mode, even if they have a high class rating. I find Random 512k block write of at least 1Mb/s is a safe bet. There are many microSD cards that can't achieve this speed and therefore can cause problems.
If you want to know the speed of your card, check out

Hi All
Just ordered my new o2 orbit 2. Upgrading from my orbit 1.
I'm assuming it's still a tiny micro-SD card. Does anyone know what the largest capacity card that is supported by the orbit 2 ?

Guess what you get if you search for 'memory card size' on the polaris forums ( advanced search ) ?
Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms
It doesn't even pick up my new post.
I did search before I posted, always do. Sorry if you find it dull that i've posted a question that I could not find an answer to but that's what I thought these forums where for...
The 6GB card you linked to will be fine, and importantly it is supplied with an SDHC capable reader for the USB slot on the PC.
The Orbit 2/ Polaris can go up to a capacity of 32GB (if you can find cards this large at the moment they would be very costly) - 8GB are certainly available and I have seen 16GB is about to be released (might already be available, at a price) - Mike
MicroSD SDHC drawbacks?
Considering operation specifically for the Touch Cruise, are there any reasons to forgo (to do without) the additional capacity of the SDHC to gain greater than class 4 or 6 speeds (ie: sandisk ultra II microsd with read/write speads of 10/9 m/s)? Would these greater speeds help significantly with video playback or rendering pictures, or would one advise that the difference is negligible and definitely not worth giving up the excess storage potential?
I bought an 8GB Sandisk microSDHC class 4 (with microreader included) for 52 euros. Installed Tomtom Maps of Western Europe on the card and several movies (created with CloneDVD Mobile). Tomtom 6.032 as well as the movies played with Coreplayer 1.1.3 are running smooth. Hence class 4 should be fast enough.
Thanks
Appreciate the comment. I'll have to check out that clonedvd mobile software.
i bought an 8gb sandisk one on ebay for 45$. i was dissapointed though that the built in "all in one" card reader on my crappy ass dell xps m1210 laptop can't read sdhc. still a good purchase though, filled up to 6 gb so far with music and gps maps, etc. i do not notice any performance issues with sdhc.

The fastest speed of Sandisk MicroSd SDHC is class 4, wonder where you did find Ultra II?
Applications like Tomtom will run better (smoother) using a faster MicroSD card, the fastest speed I could find so far is Class 4. As soon as there is a faster card available I will go for it, as long as it is at least 8GB.
I've seen 12GB ones for sale. Would say TC can't use more than class 2, f/s video doesn't use that much!
There's plenty threads about problems recognizing 8GB cards tho, that suddenly it ;becomes; 2GB?

The faster the accesstime to the MicroSd card the better the overall performance. If class 6 becomes available I will go for it

I use the same card and I am happy with it, however, an application like Tomtom is depending on a lot of data transfer between the card and the application. I contacted Tomtom to figure out how to get a smooth working screen and the answer was, processor speed and data transfer speed of the card. In my previous equipment, a Mio A201 PDA, I replaced the 60X SD card with a 150X SD card and Tomtom run much smoother.

is sandisk class 4 going to be recommended again?
On the Nook Color I've read the sandisk are usually the most stable and the class 4 was the most idea (even over higher classes.)
I was wondering if this is still the case before I spent 20$ on a 16 gig sd card.
Without a doubt. It has to do with sandisk class 2 and 4 cards providing random access to small amounts of data at speeds that are 10-100 times any other brand.
All the other brands are trying to make really big chunks of data write faster (think copying over movies faster) so I don't see anyone competing with sandisk here.
you didn't specifically mention what you were going to do. if in theory you plan on running cm7 on a sd card, then go with sandisk class 4. If you are only using it for storage and plan to run cm7 off of internal you can get a higher class rating for higher transfer feeds of large movies etc. unless you plan on running applications off of sd card where I think you would want the sandisk.

I'd suggest class 10 honestly ...
I have a Kingston class 10 16gb and a SanDisk class 4 32gb and the class 4 SanDisk trumps the Kingston everytime, except during transfers directly from a computer. The SanDisk benchmarks much better also

I saw 10 card in another thread (since deleted?) where someone posted about a sale on a 32GB class 10 card. Without researching the card I happily posted to the thread saying that class 10 sounded like a good idea as I like to write gigs and gigs of data (MP3s, videos) to the card for consumption. I didn't stop to think about random reads or writes nor did I consider other uses.
This same kind of info was then posted there. I removed my foot from my mouth and noticed that, yes, in most cases, normal people doing normal things (i.e. running apps, writing small files, etc.) will generally be more happy using a class 2, 4, or *maybe* 6 in their tablet. Save the class 10 for the high-def video camera that needs fast, sequential writes. Save the dough when getting a card for your tablet: do some research and pick the card best for you based off REAL-WORLD BENCHMARKS. (Save you some time - you generally will do just fine picking up a SandDisk card.)
hello i just got an amaze and with its camera and video quality i think i need a better sd card as my current one is class 2. any recommendations and letting me me know what the phone can handle without paying for more than i need would be greatly appreciated.
thanks very much
The Amaze can handle a class 10 memory card. This would be preferred as it has the fastest read and write speed that I know of. I am currently using a 16GB class 6 SanDisk and it works really well.
Hope this is helpful. Or maybe someone else can give you more info.

Confused
My Amaze is on it's way to my door this Wednesday, and I too am on the hunt for a good class 10 micro SD card. I had a Patriot 32 GB ordered from Amazon (it had 4+ stars), but then I started reading specific user ratings. It almost looks as though there is a problem with quality/consistency with many of the 32GB class 10s. The Patriot, and several others, had quite a few recent users complain that their class 10 doesn't run any faster then their old class 2 or 4. (The complaints I tried to focused on are from users who had run speed tests and didn't just provide seat-of-the-pants analysis.) Admittedly, I was going for as cheap as I could (the Patriot was only $47), but I looked at several others and they had spotty speed comments as well.
Does anyone have specific knowledge or insight on this? Is it an issue with lower cost manufacturers whereby one card is great but the next can be dreadful. Is it the nature of the beast?
I appreciate your comments.
A class 10 card isn't the way to go with smartphones. Best to get a class 4.

UHS-1 Cards
I just read where UHS-1 class microSD's "were made for mobile devices". Something about being specifically designed to work with those operating systems. Anyone have experience with any of those? They're awfully expensive.
If you uses a class 2 SD card with a capacity of less than 16Gb and mostly uses it to transfer small files between your phone and PC - that would be sufficiency enough.
If you intend to use a bigger card, say, 32Gb or 64Gb and you are doing a lot of transferring MP3, movies, pictures ect ... especially if moving BIG files, say, more than 1 Gb each (e.g a full MP4 movie may take up to almost 2Gb)
OR
You are frequently backup your SDCard contains and moving them between PC and phone. You will appreciates the higher speed/class of your SDCard. Higher class means higher speed in reading and writting hence saving you a lot of time.
You will not notice much differences between a class 2 and a class 10 card when using it inside your phone though.
An SDCard speeding test's result will be differ from devices and that's exactly manufacturer's stated on their package/info, but, basically you got what you paid for. As we all know, Sandisk is the most expensive card out there and there is a reason for it, just do a little research and you'll know why. Sandisk classed their card at the minimum speed that their cards are capable of, whereas other manufacturer tend to class their card at the average speed that their cards capable of. Meaning a classs 10 Samsung/PNY/Patriot card may not capable of reaching the claimed speed (because, well, results are varies on devices) and the result maybe a little lower than claimed (I've tried Samsung class 10 and PNY class 10 test and the result is somewhere more or less than 9Gb/s writting).
Anyway, a class 2 16Gb Sandisk card is good enough for an average user whereas a higher class/capacity card will increase performances for those who demand more for their task/hobbies/usage
I would agree with the post above, right on the spot. I had a 8 gb class 4, 16 gb class 4, and now 32gb class 10. Did not visibly notice speed in my phone but did notice it when transferring files. You will only benefit when transferring larger files like 1 gb or more.
I only transfer my recorded videos, pictures, mp3 and that's it. I think i once transferred a movie or two.
What would have taken me 1 hr on 16 gb class 4 took me 20 - 30 min on my patriot 32 gb class 10. No problems on it since nov so far.

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/32-gb-micro-sd-analysis-speed-test/
anything over class 4 sacrafices random read/write speeds...meaning, just to write faster the data is more fragmented. Over time, the speed becomes slower and the table used to keep track of data must access parts of the fragments that are free...this reduces performance in higher class cards...if you look at Sandisk they their class two performs way above the minimum write speed, almost double...I always buy sandisk...nothing else...their quality is unmatched...they are the pioneers...A class 4 or class 6 sandisk would outperform many of the class 10's that people are buying right now.
Sometimes as Binary's card has, they lose integrity because of this reason...the index becomes messed up and the data becomes lost eaiser in higher class SD cards and lower quality SD cards...I believe Sandisk tries to minimize this even in their higher speed cards...

If you guys take a look at the bitrate of the 1080p video and also add the audio bit rate it doesn't even come close to being 2 MB/s write speed which is a class 2 SD card...the highest bitrate for video I got was 11182 (kilobits per second) = 1.36499023 megabytes per second...add the 127kbps of sound and you barely have 1.4 MB/s write speed needed for the HD video recorded by our amaze...hope this clears things up.

Yes, 32GB is max. Open case so you can see what sdcard goes inside. No it doesnt make your phone slower, I think. But 32+16 GB is too much, so it might lagg a bit.

As long as the SD card has good enough random reads/writes it wont slow the system down at all (aka as long as its a good card its fine, aka the Scandisk ones are a safe bet, and actually the lower classes have better random read/writes).
The only thing is that if you have a lot of media the media scanner will take longer to finish (derr).
Thanks everybody, was also gonna ask the same question.
Nope. Sandisk 64GB micro SDXC works just fine with SGS2. However, I digress...
I concur with Veyka, my Sandisk 32GB/Class 4 works more than admirably for pretty much any/everything I've thrown at it so far. And they're fairly cheap too (<$50 AUD for me).

It's better to take some class 6 or class 10 card (but class10 is abit expensive and its almost no difference in most cases on SGS2).
The card will not slow your phone by itself, but a lot of files or media can slowdown mediascaner abit and increase battery consumption by mediascaner.
Just wanted to jump in with a reminder. The class rating of the card refers to the write speeds. So the class is irrelevant when you're talking about the performance of opening/reading files. The class is only relevant when writing to it.
That said, get a brandnamed card. I recommend Sandisk. I have a Class 2 32GB Sandisk that actually performs (from my testing) faster than a Class 4 rating.

Yes SD card classes shows minimum write speed (because before classes some manufacturers was "cheating" using "×" as read speed)
But read speed usualy almost equal to write speed. So reading from class10 card is for sure faster than reading from class 4 card. Just check this article on wikipedia. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital#.C3.97_rating

That appears to be on a case-by-case basis depending on the card manufacturer.
From my own testing, my Class 2 32GB card can write at about 4MB/s (which is on par with a Class 4 card).
I also have a Class 10 8GB card which obviously can write faster than the Class 2.
But both of them are neck-and-neck when it comes to read speeds.

NP ;-) I paid a bit more than that for mine ($48 @ MSY from memory), so you're doing well if you can get one for 40 bucks.
I don't see the point of paying a lot more (double and more) for a card with a higher class rating for pretty much negligible improvement in "performance". We are talking about a phone after all, and this card handles 1080 video (recording it/writing it to the card) just fine which is probably the most "intensive" activity the phone is capable of.

For normal day to day usage in the phone there'd be very little difference in a class 4 or 10 card. However copying 32gb onto a class 4 card is a slow progress !! Spend the little extra and go class 10.

Go for a 32 GB one if you think you'll be able to utilise the space. If you pick a class 6 or 10 card you really shouldn't have any speed problems. Obviously a higher class card is faster - class 10 FTW!

These are only minimal speeds, these can be higher.
I have Class 4, Sandisk, 16GB, Write is 8.7 MB/s, Read 28.9 MB/s.
There's a thread on this subject somewhere here.
What you need to consider as well is access speed.
Higher class cards transfer faster, but to do so, data has to be accessedfirst, and that takes longer with class 10 than class 2 for example.
That means, if you are goinf to work a lot with larger files, it pays you to get a high class, if on the other hand, you are going to onstall apps to work with small files a lot, it will actually slow you down.

I've found it, anybody interested should look at the tests results
