i know theres a microSD recommendation thread. this is more of a survay.
What MicroSD card are you using with Android
Brand :
Size :
Class :
Stable (yes/no) :
in my case
Apacer
8GB
Class 4
NOT stable.
Kingston 8gb class 4
Pretty stable tho, altho when im walking outside I cant do nothing with my screen:/ but I think its not the SDcard problem
Brand: Transcend
Size: 8GB
Class: 6
Stable: Yes
Compared to the included 16GB Class 2 card, read rates went from 11MB/s to 19.6MB/s. Write rates went from about 7-10MB/s to over 16MB/s. Overall boot speed and performance is quicker and more snappy.
Brand : Sandisk
Size : 32GB
Class : 2
Stable (yes/no) : yes, very stable to date
Format: Quick format FAT32 / 32kb cluster size / formatted with SD Formatter v.3
Best to all,
R
Brand: Dane-Elec
Size: 16gb
Class: 2
Stable: yes
Reason for purchase: It was £19 on Amazon.
Satisfied? Yes: No problems in Windows Mobile. I'd worry I'd notice speed problems when I switched to Android, but absolutely none at all in a month of heavy use. Watching Divx films on Android presents no problems, which is probably the heaviest use I can think of.
If it's slow anywhere, it's on direct transfer of files from PC to Card in a Card Reader, but still not noticably in Real World Usage.
I have two that I switch between
Brand: Samsung
Size: 2gb
Class: 6
Stable: Yes
Brand: Transcend
Size: 8Gb
Class: 6
Stable: yes
I use my 8Gb less than my 2Gb for some reason, it has my preferred build on it (ShubCraft) but it is in no way any less stable or reliable that my 2Gb
how you can measure the writing speed, my reading speed when mounting is like 5MB/S max

I've been fairly lucky to be honest, reading about the problems other people have. I think a lot of problems come from using the movie player that comes in built into Android. I use Vplayer and Rock player.

I'm considering this card, since it's cheap at Fry's and Newegg, but was wondering how's the battery draw with this card.

I have not foud a good app to test Battery draw, but I am running alot of stuff on here all the time and did not notice a battery life difference between cards. I can tell you I see the biggest difference when I am copying files on or off the system or when I have TiBu backing up to my external SD card.

Is Transcend 8GB Class 6 a good choice?
Will android work on it well?

ENDS TONIGHT, MAKE IT QUICK!
Well, I found this yesterday while browsing Amazon for some high speed MicroSD cards... and seeing how SanDisk is one of the highest rated manufacturers for these, as well as the usual price for this particular one, I figured I had myself a deal.
http://www.cellphoneshop.net/32san10clas.html
They already lowered the price dramatically, but an extra $10 off definitely helps. During the checkout, scroll down, and near the bottom left, you'll find the Promo Code/Coupon entry box. Enter the following for $10 off your order:
CPSMOM12
Final price came to $43.98 (Regular shipping method included in price).
Hope this helps those who want a high quality 32GB MicroSDHC for their device.
[Rumor has it that the Read speed on this particular card has an average of 30mbps... Only Lexar, so I've read, has been able to top that, but Lexar cards don't seem to last more than a couple of months with daily use.]
Managed to get a card. Thanks

Yeah, the card you posted above is only a Class 6 so the Read/Write speeds might be a tad bit lower than the Class 10 I posted about in the first post.
Both are still excellent cards.
ADDITION: I guess I forgot to inform that the card I advert'ed in the first post was a Class 10... my bad.

According to Sandisks website for the Ultra cards, all the 32gb are class 10 and the lower sizes are class 6.

It is, of course, possible that the art might be wrong as well.
ADDITION: I'll admit, when I was MicroSD shopping on Amazon, I came across the same product, but when I saw the "Class 6" on the image, it swerved me to the "Class 10" product I saw on their site, which obviously redirected me to the "CellPhoneShop" product I shared above.

70 euro
It is very new so the price is high. And it is one of the fastest cards that exist.
can you run a benchmark to see if the note can utilize the speed of the card ?
not bad for 70euros. but adding this to the note, will easily give us technically 80GB. nice purchase. i wonder when that will be available here in asia.
But does the Note 10.1 support UHS-I? Because if not this would be for us just a super expensive regular 20 MB/s card...
Recived this card today. Sd tools shows 12.6/18.8 w/r speed. In comparison against sandisc ultra 32Gb class 10 7.1/13.3 . I don't know if sdtools shows real digits or not.

Used SD speed increase app. Best result @3072 is 13.2/18.8 .
Gallery is very slow.
My resume : if you plan to use this card only inserted in Note 10.1 it's not worth it to pay $92.

Even a SanDisk Ultra Class 6 can give you up to 30mbps. I use a San Disk Ultra Class 10 & have never come close to hitting 30mbps speeds on anything other than DSLR. For phone or tablet, stick with class 6 or 10 if cheap. Otherwise, you are just paying for something you aren't using anyway.
BTW, The new 32Gb SanDisks are 90mbps.

For reliability I would trust Samsung more than Sandisk. Waiting for pricing to come down to earth.
Have the same card. using it as internalsd with swap sd script
Note 10.1 DOES NOT SUPPORT UHS-1, so buying such card for tablet is pure waste of money.
Sorry, haven't noticed how old is this thread.

How do you know this? The support is in the kernel, and IIRC any newer controller should be able to- there's hardware older than our Notes which definitely does.
If there is anyone, who owns Sandisk MicroSD 32GB CLASS 4 card and runs Windows Phone 7.5/7.8 on it, could you please post the benchmark results?
The actual is only CLASS 4 one. I've found, that some Class 2 owners have speed of 7-8MB/s in WP Bench.
I've unpacked a Class 4 one. On the first time I run test it showed about 7MB/s, but after phone reset/installing dualboot etc speed decreased to 4MB/s
Is it normal?
Many thanks for any advices!
i have class 2 and never have better results than 8 MB/s
I think I mean your post with WP Bench
I was talking about your benchmark post with 9.1MB/s result. The problem is I've got a two cards, which work TERRABLE (PATRIOT class 10 which gets <1MB/s in WP Bench and Transcend Class 6 which gets <2MB and freezes on some roms). I've ordered an class 2 Sandisk card, but the shop delivered me a class 4 Can't decide should I put it back and continue seeking Class 2 or it will be the same speed with it too... I've found a few posts with SanDisk 32GB Class 4 users and it seems to be slower than class 2.
Bit on the first time I've puted the card on my phone the speed was ~7mb/s. And I can't even say that the card was empty. I installed wp benchmark and put few gigs of music on it.
Strange test results...?
Right now, after I set dualboot the speed is constantly about 4.03MB/s. Is there explanation for this strange speed decrease?
Maybe re-formatting or even reseting phone acts somehow on the card? Maybe it's any kind of software bag?
Regarding a speed test of my Sandisk 32 GB Class 4 card with WP Bench Free see my post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36920228&postcount=174
I (also) noticed that my phone slowed down. But I'm not sure if the card is to blame. Previously I had two partitions on the card, a small one for Android and the large one for WP7.5. In December I repartitioned the card with three partitions, two rather small ones for Android (to get newer and faster ROMs working - "NativeSD") and the third one for WP7.8 (my main system). But Windows Phone feels a lot slower now. The reason might be 7.8 being slower or it is caused by the three partitions or maybe even by the card getting slower, I don't know.
But I'm also interested to get a faster WP (again), so I asked other people to return their benchmark results with WP Bench Free in order to have some comparison and maybe a reason to buy a specific new card (32 GB or 64 GB, not smaller). Sadly no one published any result so far.
P.S.: With 7.5 WP Bench Free also returned approx. 4 MB/s, just like now, but the system felt way snappier compared to 7.8.
Some practical test results
Here are some practical test results from WP Bench and Android SD Tools (Sandisk 32GB Class 4, year 2012):

So I bought this SD card: http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/memory-cards-hdd-odd/memory-cards/micro-sdhc-pro/MB-MGCGB/EU
Running A1 SD Bench I got speeds of 12MB/s and 3.8MB/s when it should be close to 70MB read and 20MB/s writes.
Any reason why it could be running that slow other than a faulty drive? Is there something I can do do improve this?

No because my SD card which is working without a problem with my note 4 (8gb Class 2) is also a Sandisk Card , also Many of other users has reported similar issues with other brands as well (with class 10 and U1 SD cards) , even some of brands are unfortunately Samsung
i have 128 gb san disk with no problems about read and write , it is triple faster than my phone memory ! Cheers
Not sure what speed you can expect to get with your micro sdcard.
However I do know that the maximum speed quoted 70 / 20 will only be achieved on devices with UHS I support.
To the best of my knowledge no smartphone has this interface support, you will only get these speeds on a device with UHS I support such as some cameras

I just got my Samsung EVO 64GB card today. A1 bench shows read speed as 304MB/s and a write speed of 26MB/s. Can't be right.
Edit: After doing the accurate test with reboot it's 40/20. Sounds about right.

If it hasn't been discussed in another thread (none as far as I know) it doesn't support UHS-I class 3 cards according to ZTE Germany Facebook support
I find it generally hard to find this particular information for most phones. Most if not all flagship smartphones brag with UHS-I compatibility but most of them are only compatible with class 1 which doesn't bring any benefits over standard class 10 cards according to my knowledge
I tried both 200 gb and 128 gb sandisk on my axon 7 global version and both make my phone too warm and of course quick battery drain . I read somewhere that actually supports only sdhc which means not more than 32 gb . Is that really true ? I have a huge music collection with lot high res files and need lot of space . Help please !
I have seen that San Disk cards have been giving people problems and that ZTE recomends the Samsung Evo Plus line.

If that's true that is kinda lame, do you still have source to that claim I couldn't find it easily on Google. And to back up what you're saying yes UHS-1 class 1 and standard class 10 are basically the same thing, in fact my SD card has both labels on it.

I'm using a Samsung UHS-1 class 1/ standard class 10 of 64GB and it works perfectly fine.
Confirm 256 Gb MicroSD Card
I called ZTE and they insisted that my Axon 7 would only support 128 Gb, class 10. (They only read their internal specifications, which are out of date.)
Here is an article about the increased storage support:
ZTE Axon 7 update B25 bumps SD card storage limit to 256GB
So, I purchased a "Samsung (MB-ME256GA/AM) 256GB 100MB/s (U3) MicroSDXC EVO Select Memory Card with Full-Size Adapter" from Amazon for $43. This supports Class 10, U3, and 4K HD, hopefully to be faster in my next phone.
I plugged it in and is registers the full 256 Gb of storage.
I am running ViperOS 6.7, Android V9 and very happy with this ROM, although it hasn't been updated since 09/2019.
