Which memory card to buy?

[The_Cancerian]

Hello All,
I want to buy a new Memory card for my phone so I was wondering which to get from these:
Samsung 32GB High Speed microSDHC Class 10 Memory Card
or
Samsung Electronics 32GB Pro microSDHC Extreme Speed (UHS-1) Class 10 Memory Card
or
SanDisk Ultra 32 GB MicroSDHC Class 10 UHS-1 Memory Card

BTW, whats the difference between the High Speed microSDHC Class 10 and Pro microSDHC Extreme Speed (UHS-1) Class 10?
Anyway, please advice what to get

Thanks in advance

They are all class 10 (or so they say), so the performance should be the same. Buy the cheapest one, as long as you are buying a brand name (Sandisk, Kingston, Maxell, Memorex, Virbatum, etc) Samsung is probably made by one of these (guessing Sandisk).

I'm a fan of Sandisk. Had cards (for my DSLR) that said Class10 but were slow as hell. So I usually go to Amazon and shoot cheap cards. Sandisk is definitely worth it. Plus you get benefits like card recovery software which could help you in some cases. A nice-to have for me in my DSLR but for you maybe not important. I'd go with Sandisk for a few pounds/dollars on Amazon. They're worth every penny!

Thanks all.

I personally use the sandisk ultra for the higher temp tolerance(ive proven it to work up to 140f-by accident) early rooting days. Used to have a screen**** saved somewhere.....but all class 10 should be worth their price...

I got the SanDisk Ultra 32 GB MicroSDHC Class 10 UHS-1 Memory Card for my Atrix a year ago and have had it in my Note 2 for the past 3 months with ZERO problems.

I just wish it was 24 bucks then.

I have the first one on my note 2. No issues so far. Its more than sufficient for storage, playing videos etc.

Just because you can get a faster Card does not mean you will use it. Read the specs/manual folks, are you sure the Note 2's capable of reaching those read/write speeds? If not, then a Class 10 is just a waste of money. I've been using a Class 4 and so far no issues; I can still watch FullHD movies without a hitch and record them with the camera and not a single skipped frame (I can't think of another data-intensive use for those read/write speeds).

Second, remember that SanDisk cards are KNOWN (and acknowledged by SanDisk) to have issues with newer Samsung phones. If you do get the SanDisk one, MAKE SURE the card is manufactured in 2013 (anything before December 2012 has a 'bug' in their chips; it can just fail randomly but it can also damage the card and data permanently).

If you want a not-so-known tip, I'd get an AData card. They're dirty-cheap, and wanna guess who's their chip supplier? Samsung.

It was my understanding that the issue is with the ultra cards, not the class 4 cards
