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

Hello, I wanna know what is default memory card which is in box class? 2 or 4? I have 4 class 8 gb card. So will it be better?
default is class 2. Class 4 or higher is recommended.

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 )
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA Premium App
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.
Sent from my LG Optimus One P500 using XDA App
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.

Just how accurate is SD tools? I tried it on a 8gb transcend class 6 card and am getting

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).

The phone supports upto 32 GB. It should work. I've seen many devices running with their maximum capacity.
I don't test it, but it must work. The LG is ready for 32 gb micro SD.

It should work perfectly fine. Mine is 16 gb sandisk class 4 and it flies with 1gb ext4 partition. Don't see the difference in speed from 2gb to 8gb and then to 16gb. Everything works fine. I would suggest sandisk class 4.

It affects the performance this much |_| ...you decide.
Your card might be a class whatever. The output of:
/sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb
and
/sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:16/read_ahead_kb
affect the read ahead performance however. The card by itself is a load of old ****.
Ignore the people who have bought themselves a big waste of money.
Huge difference. Stupid serial access synthetic benchmarks as detailed above are of no relevance. Of course faster access medium is better. Like the difference between an HD and an ssd. Anyone saying otherwise has no idea what they are talking about.

Don't be ridiculous. Why not go on and argue that a 2mhz processor is just as good as a 1.4ghz quad core one? Simple logic and a very minor understanding of science will confirm it.

Rubbish. Of course a class 2 card is slower than a class 10. Proof? Look at any benchmark or try it yourself. Your argument is akin to arguing that a car with a top speed of 100mph and 0 to 60 of 20 seconds is just as fast as one with a top speed of 200mph and a 0 to 60 of 5 seconds. Get a grip. God there are some muppets on this forum....
It was to my understanding that a class 2 means that it will at least write at 2MB/s. It is by all means not limited to 2MB/s. Am I wrong?

The card doesn't control the read-write rate. The ROM does.
You are correct though. Example: A Lamborghini will do, let's say 180 mph... but the driver may never go above 50.
EDIT: I'm looking forward to seeing Dr Pepper's stats and data though.

See.. Cards performance will only be affected if you store game Data on the extsdcard.. Even then class 4 would be good enough.. If you don't want to buy class 10 buy a class 4 sdcard.. You won't notice any major speed differences

If you're recording hd video onto your card then you'll be better off with a class 10. Other than that, it won't affect the performance of your phone at all if you get a slower card.

I've had lags+stutters while recording video at 1080 and superfine quality directly to my class 6 SD card. Those videos were quite long (10-15 min).
Changing storage location to phone memory removes all the lags. I'm planning to change mine to class 10 soon.
Other than this, I don't see any real performance issue with lower class sd card; at least for me anyway.
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.

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
