is there any class4 16gb microsd?

I'm currently using a class-4 6gb microsd from sandisk, serial number checked at site and its genuine
All 16gb microsd I can find in ebay is class-2, will I feel the difference or its not a big deal?

I've been doing some searching also and all I can find is class 2 on a 16 gb card. Suchas:
http://www.supermediastore.com/sandisk-class-2-16gb-micro-sd-sdhc-transflash-memory-card-only.html
Actually on their Website Scandisk only shows this one 16 gb card at all:
http://www.sandisk.com/Products/Item(2702)-SDSDQ-016G-A11M-SanDisk_microSDHC_16GB_Card.aspx

I've been having this exact same experience. Has the classification scheme changed or something? Why would Sandisk stop selling their fastest cards?

Adata has one- i actually have it. Its a "Turbo" class 6 16 gig micro.
here is an Amazon link.
http://www.amazon.com/DATA-microSDHC-Memory-Adapter-AUSDH16GCL6-RA1/dp/B001VLIVEE
I got mine for around $50, but you have to watch for the sales.
Hope this helps

Thanks for your helpful response! This is exactly what I need.
I still don't understand why Sandisk no longer sells Class 4 and 6 micro SD cards, but I guess it's their loss: I'll be buying this A-Data one.
Thanks again!

RE 16gb class 4 cards
Hiya,
Thats very unusual, i am sure Sandisk does a class 4 card.
I've only just recently got my hands on a SanDisk Mobile Ultra(TM) 16GB card, its got a number 4 symbol embossed onto the outer packaging of the chip! Defo not a 2, unless i've been had! lol
Comes with an excellent guarantee.
I hope this is of use. :-D
Easy enough to find on amazon.
Question for some techy------>
For class 6 to work does the host device need to support it to achieve the improved transfer/read/write data rates? Would love a Class 6 SDHC.

Where can I buy 32GB microSD in Atlanta GA

Hi
Where can I buy 32GB microSD in Atlanta GA?
What Class of microSD is recommended for for HD2 running Android? is Class 2 enough?
Thanks

i don't recomend you to buy an MiicrSD 32GB....
Why? the max i see is class 2 ( low data transfers ) and if exist a class 4 or 6 will be expensive... over 200dollars or more... ( i guess )
You be OK with a micro sd HC of 16GB class 4 or class 6 ( i have one of class 6 and works GREAT! )
If you still whant an sd of 32GB please search on ebay, or other smartphone webs.
Excuse my bad english.
PD: The minimum recomended For me about the class, it's class 4, class 2 works like a ****...
i have a class 2 4gb and other 8gb, and works Slooooow.... but my 16gb class 6 works faster!!

A class 4 32GB microSD does indeed exist, but it's ~$160. And I still recommended having class 6, which does not exist in the 32GB size, yet. Just stick with your SD card and keep your money.

People are saying that we should use a Class 4 SD Card. Same ole BS, HTC puts in a Class 2 and then still ships out Class 2 as replacements. Figure that one out. I know $$$$$. LOL

I don't think you can even run Android with a 32Gb card. I've heard the best card for Android as far as battery consumption and speed, is Kingston 8Gb Class 4.

Android will run with a 32GB card but that's the most the OS can address.
Sent from my HTC Incredible

Thanks for the replies.
My current microSD is 16GB Class 2 (Sandisk) and it is running Android with no issue at all on my HD2; so I think that a 32GB of the same Class (2) will not under perform. Since I want to try and compare between several Android builds, I need the space. I am going to be in Atlanta this week, that why I'm looking for a place where I can purchase a leget card. In the past was burnt twice when I purchesased "fake" SD cards via eBay.
Doses any one run Android on HD2 with Class 2 32GB and facing problems due to the card?
If you guys know of a leget place (e.g. Best Buy, etc.) that have the card in the Atlanta area, then please provide the location info.
Thanks again.

Check at a verizon wireless store. Here where I live they were running a promo, if you bought a droid x, you could purchase a 32gb micro at a discounted price.

wouldn't be easier and cheaper to buy a card online and just ship it overnight?
or, walk into a verizon store and they'll charge you plenty, but for a legit card

fault is caused by SanDisk memory cards ... for every one with sandisk sdcards!

Hi
This is some thing I have found not sure if its been posted but if not all should read if you have a sandisk card in you note or any Samsung device.
This maybe s reason to strange problems.

" The problem affects "a very small percentage of 32GB and 64GB SanDisk Mobile Ultra microSD cards," says the memory card manufacturer. Various forums have reported the problem, including the*official SanDisk forum."Under certain circumstances the cards may lock up and the card becomes inaccessible," SanDisk continues, adding, "the issue has been identified and a manufacturing fix has already been put in place."

Yeah, move along- nothing to see here.
I've got 3 each of the SanDisk 32 and 64GB SD-Card and have yet to have any of them fail; as others have pointed out, I guess the OP didn't see the words "small percentage of ... cards".

I don't have an issue with my 32gb micro sdhc ultra but I do have issues with 2 sandisk flash drives note being recognized in windows 7 x64 when Kies is running.

In the linked thread on CNet there are almost as many posts "complaining" about cards from other manufacturers - the most of these about Samsung cards!!
FWIW I have two Sandisk 64gb cards and they both work fine. I just take care that they have been formatted correctly.

Makes sense. I had 2 32gb class 10 SanDisk cards die in my Note 2. Switched to a 64gb Samsung class 10 & no issues.

That is exactly what happens when people don't do the research . There is 2 different cards ( I forgot exactly how to tell them apart I think one Has little I sign on the card and one don't ) One of them is Specifically designed with digital cameras in mind and another one is Specifically designed for smartphones . And people don't look at that , they look at price . Oh and don't get me started on class . People buy class 2 card because it's cheaper and they wonder why it's not recording high-def video . DOH !!

... and too bad that doesn't matter in the least for our purposes.
Sorry, but that distinction has to do with speed and power usage; ALL Micro-SD cards have to perform according to (E)MMC specs and all Linux kernels are designed to handle all versions of the spec.

brought a 32gb sandisk 3 months ago and its been fine so far, i would buy a samsung micro sd but they are much more expensive than sandisk and never in stock when i want to buy one (they must be good cards if they are always out of stock)

Mine died in my note 10.1

[Q] Which Note 3 compatible 64GB Micro SD Card to get?

I've read mixed results with the overall Samsung Galaxy series of phones and Sandisk micro sd cards.
I was thinking of getting this 64GB Class 10 card:
http://www.walmart.com/ip/SanDisk-64GB-microSD-Class-10-Ultra-Card/23350707
But didn't know what/if any the current people already with Note 3s are using. Some people say to stick with the Samsung 64GB version as there are issues with some phones only being able to read exFat.
I just wanted to make sure that the card I buy actually works with the Note 3 when it arrives and not have to deal with returns and buying multiple makes/manufacturers of cards until I find a working one that lets me use all 64GB.
Thanks!

Maaan, you're getting the world's most fastest advanced phone that has not 1, 2, 3 but 4 world firsts on it (4K recording, 3GB ram, MicroUSB 3.0, 24bit audio), the bleeding edge of technology, and you put a ultra 64gb class 10 card in there? forget about it...step up to the big boys, you have to get this one...
(won't let me link, i removed it, but google "world's fastest microsd" and it's a sandisk card)
Its the Sandisk Extreme 64GB MicroSD card...it's the world's fastest sd card, it's stats are 80MB read, 50MB write, but actual tests have shown 96MB read,.and 61MB write, which destroys any other class 10 sd card...class 10 is 10MBps, this card is hitting 5 to 9 times that depending on read/write
Look at this review
(I cant believe they wont let me link, its by legit reviews, just google it)
It's perfect for 4K recording, USB 3.0 transfers, etc..
With those read speads you won't see the lag the ultra 64gb card have when you open gallery, and i know because i had one in my note 2 and it took a bit for it to load all my pics, bet it doesn't with this behemoth...Im selling my ultra and pony up the difference for the $99 extreme
The fastest microsd card in the world for the fastest phone in the world...perfect match...

I would say NO to sandisk cards. Had a 64 gb class 10 ultra high speed in my note 2 and got all sorts of crashes.
Put it in my laptop and yepee..lost all files...

That is the Ultra, which Sandisk as already acknowledged there was an issue and was working with customers for exchanges, they do have a lifetime warranty, this is a different microsd card, probably different parts altogether due to it's speed

I getting Note 3 soon...
thinking shoild get Samsung MicroSDHC Pro 64GB or Sandisk Extreme MicroSDHC 64GB.

never heard of it?
from samsung or sandisk?

I had been a Sandisk loyal user until my S4 which caused hiccups, lags, mysterious file disappearance, random reboots, unable to transfer large files and many more.....
I then switched to Transcend MicroSD on my S4 and all the above problems disappeared. I've been using an old 8GB Sandisk on my Note 3 and so far haven't experienced any problems yet. I am awaiting for the 128GB Microdisk SDHC coming out soon and really make use of that 1080p screen.

You were just misinformed companies want you to think there's a limit but when your on a site like xda there's no fooling us lol, even though at that time 64 gb microsd was the biggest external microsd option there were ways to get around the limit via regular sdcards. I have a 256gb sdcard I use on my note 3 from a tf cable that uses the microsd card slot on the note 3 so I can insert my sdcard and store massive amounts of data on it. I'm planning on buying the 128gb microsd also tho just to support sandisk and Thank them for finally making this happen, we're sure to see 128gb internal phones in the near future now.
Sent from my SM-N900T using xda premium

C'mon, this is very simple, until couple days ago the largest micro sd card was 64GB and that's how far they could test it and that's what they wrote in the specs. If the 128GB card follows the specs, it has to work, but I do remember in the past some cards didn't work with all devices and I have no idea why, something about particular controller being not compatible, so it would be foolish for Samsung to post specifications which can't be tested. I had same thing with my old camera, specs listed 32 GB max, largest size at the time of release but it worked with 64GB fine when those came out. So when do we get 256GB, 128GB seems so yesterday.

Almost certainly it will work. However the manufacturer suggested price (200$) is just "marketing" similar to what is routinely done on overpriced jewelry, the initial launch price seems to be closer to 120$ and I would be quite surprised if the price will not get towards 70-80 US$ once the competition really heats-up.

Amazon has it for $119 but it is out of stock.
No idea when they will actually have it.

It's been over 1 year so it's probably time to confirm that the SanDisk 128GB Ultra Micro SDXC Class 10 UHS-1 card works flawlessly on a Samsung Note 3 SM-N900T (running either KItKat or Lollipop). For best performance it doesn't hurt to adjust the read-ahead cache higher than the default 128K (I use 1024K).
Beware of the many "fakes" found online. As of this writing, anything under $50 is probably not a genuine 128GB card, but you can find legitimate ones for as little as $65 if you search around.
