microSD in your phone - you go for size or speed?

Class 10 for a phone?

What uses the data rate of 10MB/s on a mobile phone? Unless you shooting FullHD at 100Mb/s - which most broadcast camera's don't even do, there's no need for that kind of speed.

For day to day use and FullHD recording on mobile phones, Class 4 MicroSD cards are perfectly sufficient.

Yes lets buy R8k phones and bundle it with the slowest possible memory card, that makes perfect sense.
You forget to include things like USB Mass storage, I may not be watching 100mbps movies on my phone, but why would I wait 60% longer to copy something to it.
The phone memory is more than capable of matching the class 10 speeds so transfer between device memories are also faster. Besides at R160 why would I buy anything slower.

Hell where can you even find a class 4 32GB for that price.

Class 4 @
Prophecy is R225 + shipping
Wootware is R247 + shipping
Sybaritic is R206 + shipping
Takalot is R248 + shipping

I was curious to see what people preferred. This morning I copied something to my flash mem on my phone, and I wasnt too impressed with the speeds...

I decided that it would be much better to install a nice fast microSD card so the stuff would copy across quickly
