Thats not a bad price, I personally dont need a new one as a nice rep gave me a freeby 32GB one recently to test out on handsets, somehow it found its way into the slot on my scroll :twisted:

Just be sure NOT to buy a class 4 or below. These cards are slow....

Class 6 or 10 is cool (the class number refers to the MB per seconds it can write and is shown as a circle enclosing a number.)

There is a App called [url]SD tools[/url] which measures the speed of your micro SD card to make sure you've not been sold a slow counterfeit version.

Some of the cheap microSDs are only class 2!

I doubt that unless the hardware manufacturer has used old hardware! But I'm no Android software expert.

My SDTools app shows my class 6 16GB microSD card running at 8MB/s and a class 2 8GB card running at 6MB/s.

Just because it says class X on the front, just means that is the minimum it is designed to write at. (the class number is the write speed in MB/s). So you could be lucky and it writes faster.
