Thread: Help finding a Class 10 32GB Micro SD

  1. #1

    Default Help finding a Class 10 32GB Micro SD

    As mentioned in the subject...

    I am currently looking for a SanDisk as I understand they are the best and most reliable. I am open to correction if any of you peeps think there is something better though.

    Minimum requirements are 32GB and Class 10.

    I currently have a 16GB in my Galaxy Note, and due to screen size I have started watching movies quite a bit on it. 16GB starting to choke a bit now ):

    Class 10 will be hard to find locally, and very expensive, although I'm sure a place like amazon will have in stock and will have a much better price.
    Otherwise class 4 is perfectly fine for watching movies off of, and the 32GB are +- R260 incl vat at esquire now.

    Why is class 10 a minimum requirement?

    Each manufacturer has something they call "Class 10" - They are not the same between Kingston and Verbatim, at least.

    Rather check on transfer speeds or reviews.

    Don't bother with the Sandisk, you are just paying for a Lexar product with another sticker

    Try Loot - http://www.loot.co.za/shop/main.jsp?...17745605082928
    R354 is a bargain imo and includes delivery!

    You can find it cheaper, but it is usually not cheaper anymore after you have added the shipping fees.

    Keen to see if they are that much better than my current class 4. Perhaps also just being a bit anal

    This is an awesome price. Gonna check them out.
    EDIT: Thanks
    EDIT2: At checkout they said expected date of dispatch is 28 May. Bleh. Not going to wait that long.
    Free delivery to PO counter. I prefer to door which was R67 (Not bad).

    I ended up going with http://www.sybaritic.co.za/store/pro...ducts_id=70586
    Get it tomorrow.

    Thanks for the input guys.

    The SD card class rating is only for write speeds if i remember correctly. Read speeds are the same across the board.

    The Speed Class Rating is the official unit of speed measurement for SD cards. The class number guarantees a minimum write speed as a multiple of 8 Mbit/s (1 MB/s). The SDA defines several speed class ratings, but manufacturers may claim conformance to those ratings without independent verification.

    Lol... No - no mobile piracy this side
    I am a flashaholic and movie fanatic. I keep a lot of ROM's until I am certain I will never go back to them again or I get stable upgrades.
    4GB limit been a problem yet cause I use VidCoder to convert my movies to a format suitable to the Galaxy Notes screen. A typical 4GB mkv ends up at around 500MB.

    Not a bad price from Sybaritic.

    Was your 16GB class 10 also? Please tell is if you could notice a speed difference when copying files to/from it etc.. I am looking for one for my tablet too.
