What is the highest class MicroSD card an Optimus V can take? I read somewhere it can take up to a class 6, but I want to make sure before I go and buy a new card. Thanks in advance.
The really sad part is what the classes mean. Yes they do stand for a speed but most dont even know. Class 2 will go 2mb/s atleast and a Class 10 will do 10mb/s minimum. But with that said the fact still stands that most class 2 (from name brand reliable vendors) will do 10mb/s alrdy and the avg class 10 u find will do about 16-18mb/s. Now if u find a Class 10 that is really fast 25mb/s or faster u will spend upwards of $100+ for a 16GB microSDHC.
I bought an ADATA 8GB Class 10 microSDHC from newegg.com. The best I can get from it is just under 20mb/s and that is still considered fast. I run a rooted and ROMed OV and use Data2ext with no noticeable speed increase on my phone at all.
Conclusion - If its a bargain SDcard don't relate that to speed at all. The best u will get is near the minimum. The class 2 SDcards will work just fine there is no reason to shell out more for a phone SDcard.
