microSD Memory Card

[geojerry]

The Amaze DOES NOT come with this installed on a new phone. Had to purchase a 8GB card and install myself. You do get internal 8GB with the phone.
Paid $20 at Best Buy for this card. Still looking for a hard shell belt clipon case.

The Amaze has 16GB built in, not 8GB. However, I think the built-in memory is partitioned and only about 9GB is available to the user for media the rest is for the OS and for Apps.

... I bought a Kingston 32GB card off Amazon for mine. MicroSDHC cards are running about $1 per GB, if you shop around. I've used many Kingston memory products with zero surprises or problems, while other brands' savings have come back to haunt me. (In fact, I bought a racetrack data acquisition device that came with faulty memory ... twice. The seller tells me that he gets them from "the secondary market" ... meaning previously used memory of unknown maker. Pfffft.)

You can economize by buying a smaller card, but the problem with being frugal with memory is that when you run out and need more, you can't have it until you either delete data, or buy a newer, bigger card. When you have as much as you could get, your chances of having this problem are diminished.

After buying a Class 4 card, I saw someone's review in which he urged buying a Class 10. ... An 8GB card, IIRC, would cost roughly $50. For the faster read/write speeds, worth it? I wouldn't know where to find the specs on how fast the microSD card slot is.... Anyone know?

Correction, I've read a few recent speed test comparisons that indicate that some brands class their cards at the absolute highest they can test at, while others are more realistic. Google and you'll find some.I remember this from a few digital photography sites that found that card speeds would vary from one manufacturer to another. Kingston has been uniformly satisfactory, Lexar used to be really good but some published speed tests late-2010 suggest they're over-promising their cards' performance.

Bottom line, a slower (Class 4) card from a good manufacturer can test almost as fast as a higher classed (Class 6, Class 10 even) card from a so-so manufacturer. If you plan to run lots of apps off the second card, or video, get a faster card. If you just need storage, go for max size your wallet will suffer. ,
