Best SD to buy

[DubM]

My computer is older and doesn't have a slot to read cards. So I guess if I do need a card reader I would essentially be paying $19 for a card reader and an upgrade to class 10 vs a class 6. If I don't need a card reader than I really don't know which one to get. I thought you could connect the phone via usb cable to the usb port on a mac it will read the card the same way it would read an external hard drive. But I have an old OS (Tiger), so I dunno.

You should be able to connect your phone to your computer via USB and mount the SD card as an external hard drive.

But you have a Mac, so I don't know, either.

Does the LTE come with any SD card by default?

Pretty sure it does not.

any thing above class 6 doesn't work on Android
Class 6 is the sweet spot
Class 10 works on PC/laptop transfer. Why not just go all out and get 64gb card.

Class 10 cards do work in Android, I have 1 in my Evo 3D & one in my TF Prime.

Well, I ordered a 32GB SanDisk one....

I really didn't want to risk buying a 64GB card and then have it not work. But, if anybody bought the 64GB and it works, let us know!

Thanks guys, but I'm in the UK. Really I was asking for proof about moosc's claim that any thing above class 6 doesn't work on Android

Hey bestbuy sent me the class 10 SanDisk sdxc 64 gig instead of the class 6 for the 59.99 I am so happy

Class 10 works flawlessly on my Android HTC EVO 4G LTE and is a good bit faster than class 6. Here's proof:
