I just bought a 64gb from Best Buy for $50

I feel like there have been a ton of sales on sd cards recently. Is that because I just started looking at them and there are actually sales all the time, or is there something new around the corner?

Thanks 77Pat I jumped on that deal too, couldn't resist.

Bought myself a 16gb class 4 mushkin card. I don't need excessive amounts of space and mushkin is insanely reliable.

Class 6 will work fine for me now! When the price on the class 10 comes down, you better believe we will all jump on it!

I hope no one thinks the S3 or any other mobile phone will write at class 10 speeds.

**Duke of BB** · 06-11-2012, 07:38 AM

Amazon has the 64GB class 10 for $99. And I was only posting to say that there is indeed a sandisk class 10 64GB not saying it can be fully utilized or anyone should buy it.

I currently have a class 4 32 gig card coming out of my TB and it seems to work just fine. Is there really a need to get a better class? How does it effect every day use? The only thing I can really think of is going into the picture gallery and pictures show up faster.

**20blks** · 06-11-2012, 12:13 PM

Class 6 is a little faster and 64gb is double double what you have now. That's pretty much it. I want the extra storage and speed. Also, you can't beat that price. If you're happy with what you have now,no need for you to change.

I will be using this this Sandisk Class10 card in my GS3 and moving my 32GB Samsung Class 10 to my Xoom. My current 16GB Class 10 Kingston will most likely get resold with my International S2.

I have a Samsung 32GB Class 10 microSDHC card in my SGS2 and SD Card Tester (300MB test file) reliably gives 10 MB/s write, 15 MB/s read, and this is consistent with upload/download speeds from my laptop via USB mass storage. Class 10 only requires 10 MB/s sequential (non-fragmented) read/write. So I assume you're suggesting that this means of measuring card writing speed is inaccurate.

I have to ask......how much did you pay for your Sandisk 64gb class 10??? I'll be jealous if you paid less than $150, lol!!

**walcolm** · 06-12-2012, 10:16 AM

got my international S3 version and hooked it up with a 64gb class 10 micro sdxc

It was $90 or $92 about a week and a half ago from amazon.

Here is a big forum post all about testing SD cards (normal, but the information still applies) from the free Go Pro website. (I have a gopro hero2 I use for skiing and diving).

You can click on the embedded charts and see the different speeds of different manufacture and class cards. Plus links to the testing programs themselves.

No, that's not what I meant, I was wrong in my post. Someone had posted saying the very thing I said and I trusted what they said. Obviously I should have researched it more because you are right and I learned that yesterday.

Does that 64gb in the picture work with your s3? I picked up the same one from amazon, neither it nor my phone ate here yet though. What's the difference between sdHC or sdXC?
