Anybody have any advice on the best 32gb micro sd card for the EVO LTE? I'm looking to purchase one, but there are so many options out there, so I just wanted to know if anybody has any tips on what brand and class work the best with our phones. Thanks in advance.

Prices on the sandisk class 10 64GB cards have come way down. That's what I have and I love it. Check Amazon.

I own a Desire S and I use a Toshiba 32 GB class 4 card. I am very happy with it, and I have paid it 20€. I don't recommend buying Class 6 or 10 memory cards because they are designed for managing big files in small time ( e.g. photography) rather than small ones. As a result, you will pay A LOT more for a card which wouldn't be as fast as a class 4 in a phone.

Well, I just had a good afternoon. I went to Best Buy, because they had a sale of a 32gb, Class 10, PNY card for $19.99. The store inventory said they had 13 in the store, but nobody could find them anywhere. So, after about 20 minutes of searching the store, they went ahead and just gave me the Sandisk, Class 10, 32gb ultra card for the same price. I got a $70 card for $20, just because someone at the store probably stocked them in the wrong section or something. Awesome!

WinTek cards from Frys are cheap & work very well. Sometimes you can find Patriot 32GB Class 10 for 80ish if you're willing to spend a little more at Frys also.
I'm currently using the Transcend 8GB class 6 in all of my devices, speeds are pretty good so far - they are around $15-20 including a SD adapter.

Unless you have the keyboard dock already, and with the way that's been going thats doubtful

Wow! You are correct, sir. Major brain fart on my part. Hadn't hit the confirm order button so was able to save myself the headache.
I am currently using the Wintec 16gb class 10 and they are fine. Speeds are way above 10mb per second write. I get up to 12 mb per sec write and 17mb per sec read.
Polaroid 16GB from Fry's is $17.99 this week after rebate. Bad news is mine just died today in my N1 (error check fails / can't format). Good news is that it's lasted in my daily driver phones for the last two years. Considering I used it for swap while I had a G1 I'm surprised it didn't die sooner. Not a bad deal if you regularly backup your SD.

I have this card in my HTC EVO (should work with any device though) and pretty happy with it, its fast and cheap!
Patriot Signature 16 GB Class 10 MicroSDHC Flash Memory Card
Its definitely a class-10, the videos and pictures play and save pretty quickly compared to the stock card that came with the htc evo.
Can someone recommend a good (aka fast) 32GB micro sd card? I'm not concerned with cost. I'd rather just spend the money up front than worry about whether or not the card is too slow. Also, is there a nice comparison chart of 32GB cards with read/write speeds of various class cards?
Thx
EDIT: Well, I'm a bit confused. Which SD format does the tablet actually support? SD or SDHC? I would like to get the largest, fastest card.
MicroSDHC should work just fine.

Lexar High Speed MicroSDHC 32 GB Class 10 Flash Memory Card with Reader LSDMI32GBSBNAR
Hey what do you guys think? I can get a either a 16GB Class 10, or a 32GB class 4 for the same price. Does a class 10 really make much difference on a phone? If this was for my DSLR Camera it'd be different. So just curious what everyone's thoughts are. Thanks In Advance!
P.S. The Price is $60. However I work at Best Buy and know i get a discount im just not sure what it is yet...
I was wondering the same thing?
I would think the class 4 32gb would be fine with the Evo 3D, but i could be wrong
What brands? Not all brands are the same.
I just purchased a Sandisk 32GB class 4. I mainly use my storage for music/pics.
I use a Sandisk 32gb class 2 I believe, it may be a class 4. Used it in my Evo4G and now my 3D. I run most of my apps and games off of it, never had an issue. Never any lag, just as fast as a class 6 I used by some off brand. Sandisk is known for having speeds faster then what they are rated, alot of no-name brands are just the opposite though.

Kingston 16GB class 10 for about $55
Kingston 32GB Class 4 for about $50
PNY 16GB Class 10 for about $30
16GB Class 4
I just went through this same thing.... The card that came with the phone was class 4. I downloaded SD Tools from the market and did a speed test. My goal was to ensure that whatever card I got had at least the same read/write speeds as the stock card.
Out of 3 tests on the stock class 4 card the highest results were 7.0MB/s write and 16.9MB/s read.
I went to Frys and bought a 16GB class 4 card (I think it is WINTEC, but will double check) for $19.99. Figured I could return it if the speeds weren't up to par.
Out of 3 tests with this class 4 card, all came back with 11.0MB/s write and 19.2MB/s read.
I decided to go with 16GB first to see if I would really fill it up. Sure, I would love 32GB of storage but when do I really need ALL my music on my phone at one time and how many movies do I really need on hand? I figure I will still use my PC as the ultimate storage device and then sync down about 4GB of music and maybe 3-4 movies at a time... still leaving room for some camera pics. If I find I am running out of space I will then upgrade to a 32GB card.
Hope this helps!

I'm using sandisk 16g class 2 card that come with my Droid X. I do get lag sometimes playing 1080p vids, although rare.. If I don't skip around a lot then no problems at all. I don't consider it a nuisance enough to throw away any class 2 cards but enough to make class 4 my new min requirement.

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
Saw this price for a Class 4 SanDisk 32 GB microSDHC - $23.31 on Amazon today. That's a sweet, sweet price. http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-microSDHC-Flash-Memory-SDSDQM-032G/dp/B004G60AD6/ref=pd_rhf_cr_shvl7
That it is! Thanks for the link. I just bought two.
it's back up to $28
I missed it too. $28 bucks not bad though. The list price kills me $90.99. Yeah right
It still shows as $23.31 for me.
Thanks for the update just picked up a pair
$23.31 + $4.99 shipping
price is $28.30 anyway
Dollar cost average
Price went back up. But found 16gb for less than 10bucks. I figured I'd get two of those and one 32gb before I deploy. Enough room for all the books and movies and games or whatever i need to keep me busy
great news. i can't get it with this price in my country
Can you measure the speed via USB mass storage, transferring a movie for instance, from/to PC, please?

Read some of the low-star reviews on Amazon. It sounds like quite a few bad cards from this seller. Several also commented that it doesn't come in retail packaging, so no warranty from SanDisk if it goes bad.
This is a great price for this card. I had a class 6 16gb card in my phone and decided to get one of these as all the reviews indicated they where as good as a class 6 and all the class 10 32gb seemed to be hit or miss.
Card is working great in my phone and with using sd tools to test speeds it is getting class 6 speeds
I bought my for $28 wish I could have found this deal

I totally didn't notice you posted that until now. Sorry, didn't mean to step on your toes. Great find! I finally got mine yesterday
Subscribe to the Newegg e-blast emails. I see 32GB class 4-6 cards for $15-17 shipped all the time. 32GB Class 10's $20-$22 shipped. Think I've seen a 64GB MicroSDXC once too. Wanna say ~$50.
In general, the new rule of thumb for a great deal is .50/GB. I've seen as low as .41/GB from Newegg for name-brand class 4 media. Gotta watch the e-blasts for coupon codes. I look through them every single day.
Amazon is always a good place to go. U can get a 32gb for $30. I know it's there. Also u can check on Bensoutlet.com
They always have SDcards. I'm using the 32 gb PNC from Best Buy. Been using it for about 2 yrs. Never had an issue. But I had a $100 BB gift card when I bought it. I would never pay $70 for a 32gb card hehe
