Lexar has good ones but they are $100 but are class 10.
I found a class 10 for 75, think uma try it out on my phone and if its good um getting one for the Xoom. Hopefully we get sd card support soon.

A friend of mine just got one off eBay and it was actually a 2gb with a 3 stamped on it. The card read as a 32 then only held 2. The seller played dumb and my friend got a refund less shipping and handling.

Wow, at least he got a refund. So they are stamping 3's on 2 gb cards and calling them 32? What's the point of that when there's a huge difference in storage? Most people get 32 cards because they need the space. Ill be testing mines as soon as it gets here.

Because people will buy them. I recommand only getting from a known retailer. There are tons of fakes on eBay.

I can attest to this. I stupidly did the same thing, fully aware that scamming was going on but thought I might get lucky. Anyway, I managed to get a full refund including postage but it'll be the last time I buy a card from an unknown seller.

Why don't you wait until the SD card slot is enabled on the Xoom before buying it since the price will probably go down by then.
I recently got a 16GB Class 6 from Ebay for my phone and it turned out it was corrupt and then when I looked at the Kingston site, they didn't manufacture any class 6 cards, only 4 and 10...
from memory when reading around the site I've seen recommendations for SanDisk/ADATA cards...
any more recommendations on good manufacturers?
The only time I got screwed was when I bought a 2GB SD card on eBay but it turned out to be only 1GB. They even fake the labels so from now on it's only amazon or NewEgg for me! I have ADATA, SanDisk, and Transcend microSD cards and they work just fine with the Nook Color.
Through my channels the only decent 32 GB cards I found were through Lexar, class 10. I should receive a pair of them today, they were $97 via CDW.
There were other 32 gig cards, but class 2/4 and nearly the same price.
New Lexar card is working in my EVO, loaded it up with all the data off of the previous 16 GB card I had before. Looking forward to using the SD card slot in the Xoom as soon as it is enabled.

Lexar? I'll look into that, I have a good one now from Memorette. It's been awesome this past week.
Why don't we use sandisk since all manufacturers seem to supply our phones with sandisk card. I mean, it's better than risking and waiting. The they're roughly the same price anyways

i only use Sandisk. Lexar is not a brand i would use personally.
i plan to get it direct from verizon with my 25% discount. they are more expensive at VZW but they are guaranteed the real deal and no issues. plus verizon have local stores so i can get support locally should anything go wrong.

Check Craigslist in your area - friend of mine was able to pick one up for $75 recently.
I'm an Audio Visual Technician and always have to purchase SD cards for clients when doing digital recording...A while ago I had purchase 3 Sandisk 32GB Micro SDs for cost price ($85 w/free shipping) along with 3 Sandisk CF 16GB Extreme IVs for my Canon 5D Mark2 at $150 a piece...
never had any problems with any Sandisk products so I tend to stick to them...but it always comes down to personal preference in the end...that's why we all got the XOOM instead of the [email protected]

Why not? I have personally used Sandisk, Kingston, Lexar, and I'm sure a few other major brands, and have not noticed a difference between them during use.
I have found them to be equally reliable, assuming you are purchasing them from a reputable supplier.

I've got a PNY class 10 16GB in my A500. Seems to work fine for me.
Just to be on the cautious side I'm sticking with class 4 Sandisk 16Gb for now.
I think all the micro sdhc cards up to 32g are compatible. I had a problem with a class 10 card I bought, but fry's replaced it without issue. Just make sure you buy from a reputable source. Some online sales are suspect and you are getting a bunk product. Pay the extra couple of bucks support your local shop. At least that way, you have a face to go with the purchase you made and can take it directly back if its bad out of the box.

having some issues with my sd card ..its a king stone 16gb(bought it at amazon.com its real) class 10 when trying to record in HD camera fails if i switch to internal memory camera works fine
Im using a 32gb sandisk class 4 I bought from ebay for 45. Ive got it filled with 29gb of mixed media.
Im pretty sure you know this but even though you bought it from amazon.com doesnt mean it came from amazon. Most of there items come from outsider merchants that are just like ebay sellers. Ive bought bogus items or the same cheap china knockoff items just like ebay. At one point amazon was selling those fake psn cards.
Plus Ive never personally heard of the card your using. I know big companies like sandisk sell there bad cards to others and they rebrand and sell at a cheap price.
had to edit, Im guessing you meant kingston which is a great brand of sd cards. But still could be going faulty. Maybe try a reformat of your sd and see if that solves any problems.
Using a Lexar 32GB class 10 and it just rocks. Really fast card. Google it, think there even was some tests put up here in the xda forums.

No i mean sandisk is more reliable overall.
Dont know much about the reliability of samsung cards... not very popular but i know that this specific card from samsung has faster read write speeds..
Again using this card over sandisk class 10 may not make a difference in real world use in phones..
The difference would be copying large files.
smasung vs sandisk
Guys I previously did research on this when looking for a sandisk 64 gb, and hands down samsung is the better card. In terms of speed and functionality samsung is the clear winnner. However many choose sandisk for the better price. Sandisk went down to 38 at one point and if you are willing to wait can be had around 46. The samsung card averages around the mid 70;s most of the time, even on amazon. I would highly reccomend this specific deal as you will not find the samsung at a similar price. It has great reliability. Sandisk, as many people have found with the 64 gb, has iffy quality. They recieved some bad rep from an earlier faulty batch of cards. This was a manufacturing issue and has been fixed at this point. Don't be afraid to buy either because of quality. I personally use the sandisk, simply cause I didnt want to pay more for the samsung. However at this price point, I would buy the samsung without hesitation.

I don't like the fact that the pics from newegg and amazon have different typefonts on the cards itself. Of course it's possible one or both are using differing generic photos. Not sure if I trust amazon over newegg when buying sd cards... But I do have amazon prime... But then again newegg will definitely have it to me in one day if it ships from the jersey warehouse... So confused... Anyone have any advice? Oh and btw, the last samsung card i bought 32gb class 10 was amazing compared to my class 10 sandisk cards.

Questions like these will just invoke peoples opinions and everybody has one. Nobody will be able to tell you what is "best". They all work good and the same. Samsung make cards just fine. So does PNY, Lexar, Kingston,Transcend,etc. Me personally, I stay with the major brands. You should be fine if you do so.Sounds like you just might have a bad card.Take it back and exchange it for something else.

I am a fan of Sandisk cards. Used a 64GB micro in this phone and then moved onto a PNY card which is what currently is in my Note now. There is another thread somewhere in here, maybe Accessories, that has a great deal on MicroSD cards from Best Buy and Amazon. I would start to look this week at getting a card cause you probably can get one for a steal being that this is Black Thursday/Friday.

Basically, I'm trying to decide between a Samsung 64gb Pro sdxc class 10 or a Sandisk Extreme sdxc class 10, which is like $25 more. Am I wasting my money going the more expensive route? Will my phone even show the difference?
I was having problems with my 16 and 32G samsung cards in my note 2, when i got my note 3 i went with a 64G sandisk (had an amazon gift card to use up) and have nothing but good things to say. I tried my 32G samsung in the note 3 as well and it was hit or miss kinda like your describing
It's hit or miss. My 32 gb sandisk class 10 just stopped working last night, lost everything on the card. Im probably going with a samsung card next. There are many reports of samsung devices ruining memory cards, especially sandisk brand.

I have a Sandisk 64gb card. It did crap out on me but they replaced it and so far so good. I've never had a problem with Micro Center cards but as of right now the biggest they have is 32gb. That's my backup in case my 64gb Sandisk craps out again.

? They've gone on sale plenty of times for 70-80. Which off the suggested retail is about the same as the 64gb cards in terms of %. Will be a lot easier after best buy stocks these in brick and mortar stores to get one super cheap.
Edit: meaning even cheaper in terms of rewards and whatnot
Is there a good App which can tell you what Class of SD Card you have installed? And, compare it to benchmarks of others? I'm curious how mine stacks up. I've been running a 64gb SanDisk for almost two years. It's really stable. Wondering how it stacks up to others though. I'm not sure of the Class.
