It's not a crazy amount of storage - but I can work around having only 8 Gb ...
Now, this all depends on what your needs are !

[Q] MicroSD Class good enough?

Hello,
I recently bought an 8GB microSD, class 4 (it's all I can afford ). Tested it for write speeds (output is 6.2MB/s). I assume I'm not gypped or something and I got the real deal (bought it at a computer store). I was wondering if this is good enough for the x10 mini pro if ever app2sd works.
Also I would like to know what capacity/class your microSDs are (for statistical purposes)
Thanks!
Are you sure 6Mb /s ? then its class 6 ... I have a 2GB .... yes app2SD will work

Yup. tested it using H2testw...
I thought I can put a whole offline wikipedia in it. Turns out the whole English DB is 6 gigs... Not enough space left for music and pictures and maps...
What the class of the SD Card included with the phone?

I haven't tested yet (I already gave it away)
But I think it's class 4 or class 6. It can't be class 2 because it's waaay faster than 2mbps.
I got a 2GB class 4

Hello, could you post screenshot of Settings -> SD-card and telephone memory so we get an idea of the total space. Also, are you using the mini or the mini pro, though I don't think this will make a difference. Thanks

kabayan!
I have the original 2GB with me. i researched it and i think its Class 4 Kingston.
Micro SDs have Class 2 to Class 10 (Class 10 as the highest, having minimum of 10mbps speed, 16GB and 32GB I think).
I've read somewhere that its recommended to have Class 10 MicroSD if you'll be using Apps2sd. but if your 8GB works fine, thats cool.
I dont want to root my phone so no Apps2sd for me though i really really need more space in my internal storage now.
Im hoping the rumors are true that X10 mini and mini pro (and of course, the big x10) would get Froyo updates on 2011. I think Froyo natively allows installation of apps in SD right?
I bought my 16GB mSD class2 2009 for my Samsung SGH-i900 Omnia.
Dropped and ruined the Omnia in a puddle of water in the spring of 2010. But both SIM-card and the 16GB memory card survived the water even if the Omnia didn't
Still using the 16GB card for both photos and music as well as for a few movies in the X10 Mini.
I don't know why a class2 that shouldn't read or write more than 2MB/s does both well over it's 2 MB/s limits in the computer.
The SIM-card was destroyed this January as my contract with Telenor expired.

Help with microsd

Hi
Can i use a normal 32gb microsd instead of microsdhc class 10?
because here in indonesia 32gb is not a ready stock item, and once i order it there will be no refund if the microsd is not working
I put a 32 gb class 4 in mine and it works fine.
The only time I ever had any trouble with using a class 4 card is when I tried to use it in a 3d high definition video camera. It couldn't keep up with the data writing.
A normal class 4 should be all you need.
a 32gb MicroSD works fine.

He's saying he has never had any issues using a class 4 card...except for when he used one in a camera that had 3D/HD capabilities.

The only difference between MicroSD and MicroSDHC is the capacity. Any card with capacity 4GB or higher is by definition HC (high capacity). Less than 4GB is "standard" MicroSD.
Any card Class 4 or higher should be fine, up to capacity 32 GB. Above 32 GB is SDXC, which I do not think is officially supported by our device, and you may not be able to access the storage > 32 GB anyway. Many Android devices have been shown to work with SDXC (and access full capacity), but its not guaranteed.

hello bro i am using strontium 16GB class-10 UHS-I .its mentioned speed on the box is 20MB/s write and 60MB/s read. i am getting in my canvas hd 22MB/s read speed and 14MB Write speed.according to me you should go with uhs-i.which will work without lagging.
Has anyone tested with a 64gb card. I know the spec says 32gb but the phone can do more than that. My Samsung Captivate used to work with a 64gb card even though the specs said 32gb.
Let me know if some tested it and please mention the brand and class.

I just read that smartphones dont support uhs-1 or uhs-2 and reads them as normal class 10 memory cards!!
Uhs-1 itself is having a speed upto 104 mbps and gives ~60 mbps when using with uhs-1 supported devices like DSRLs..
I am going to buy a 32gb class 10 sd card..
So finally should i go with uhs-1 or just class 10 is fine??
Hit THANKS instead of posting it if I was helpfull in any way. __**XDA Rule**__

You could "try" flashing the official rom via sp tools to replace the one installed from the service centre.....some users have reported that this process solves many problems ( screen flickering, etc.) ..... or you could try any of the custom roms. If problem persists, try re-flashing official stock rom and take it to a service centre for replacement if the issue is severe. I too have experienced some patches in quadrant tests ... but its nothing I can't live without.

Best apps+games to purchase for Lumia 1320 with $25 gift voucher

I got 1500INR (~$25) Microsoft gift card with Lumia 1320 that expires within 2 months.
=============================================================
Also I got these games free:
Asphalt 7: Heat
Modern Combat 4
N.O.V.A. 3
Order & Chaos
Shark Dash
Earthworm Jim
Assassin's Creed: Altair's Chronicles
Let's Golf 2
Brain Challenge HD
Asphalt 8: Airborne (already free)
=============================================================
What are the best apps+games that I should purchase?
Currently I have WP8 and about in a month I will get WP8.1 so please suggest accordingly. for example: file manager will be included in WP8.1 so I guess no need to purchase one.
Also I have free version of Moliplayer from China store, so I guess no need to purchase a media player too.
Just search on the store for good games or apps , mainly things your interested in as with 8.1 you can move 99% of your current apps to SD even the Nokia ones

Is 16GB card enough or should I get a 32GB? Its will be Sandisk Ultra or Strontium Nitro card, they both are class 10 UHS though phone supports only class 10.
NOVA 3 + Modern Comabt 4 + Asphalt 8 + other small games = 6GB would be enough....rest ~9.5 GB for music, movies and docs... so 16GB seems enough.

I would go for the 32gb if you can afford it , as the extra room gives you space for music and movies, with all my apps moved I have 3.6gb free on the phone which is much better , good free app filmonline gives you the option to download the movies so extra space is always good , have now a 16gb and that's full so go for the 32gb
Sent from my RM-994_eu_belgium_1169 using Tapatalk
ok I'll get the Sandisk Ultra or Strontium Nitro class 10 UHS card.
As with WP8.1 we can install apps on card, so I better get a good card.
I hope Stronitum Nitro cards work well with the phone, there reviews were not so good, they say speed of 433x or 466x which is a lot.

It's always best to buy the best SD cards if you have the money for them , I have just updated from 16gb to 32gb so every large game is on the SD and not on my phones memory , all I have left on my phones memory are the system apps and what's app and facebook messenger , all the rest install on my SD card , took a while moving the apps back to the phone as the windows apps on SD don't show up on the PC so can't copy the whole SD , but it sounds like you have a good SD and with 8.1 you will be happy , should be here soon or there is the dev version , but seeing as the roll out is started it might be worth waiting
