micro sd card

looking for a micro sd card and in was research ive done ive found that some are clunkinger than others so i guess im just looking for an informed opinion

im looking for something at around 4 gb or bigger if possible but i want to know if there are any problems i should be aware of when dealing with the bigger ones

 

The reason some seem bigger in physical size is that some are shipped with an adapter (full SD size) so one can use put the micro SD card into the adapter equipments and it in use full size SD.
NEXT what do you want to use the card in/or for as the come in faster data speeds? http://www.sdcard.org/home

 

MiniSD card are limited to 2GB, usually.

 

Here is a whole page of flash memory at newegg.com for you to peruse!

If you mean microSD, I have an 8GB sandisk class 6 in my blackberry...

To the OP, the higher the class of the card the faster it transfers data. I personally stick to sandisk ultra II cards. They're class 4. They're great cards and not too expensive. Very reliable. Make sure not to get any cards labeled as bulk/OEM as they are usually bootlegs and not authentic.

You shouldn't have any trouble with larger cards if your equipment is pretty recent, like within 3 years old.

Like I said above, I have an 8GB sandisk mobile ultra card in my blackberry. It's class 6 so data transfers are very quick.

The card I bought. Watch the price. When I got it, it was $28.

 

ok im looking at getting a DSi and im want to be able to mod it so i can put music and movies on it as well as games so i can make it into a portable entertainment device

i thank you all for your suggestions and will look into them and CIN' ive already been to newegg and google shop to check out what was available. i just wanted to be informed before i made my decision.

 

He needs miniSDHC in order to go over the "2GB limit".

 

You can get 16gb microSD cards, they are about as small/thin as your pinky fingers nail

Amazon is a good place to go, also eBay if you look carefully.

 

Be careful with the wording because microSD and microSDHC ard not compatible. microSD cards are 99.99% of the time below 2GB. Over the 2GB limit , the microSD card is called microSDHC.

For example from your favorite store, Amazon.

most smartphone/phones that use microSD cards usually support microSDHC cards too... (check with the manual...)

my blackjackII says up to 8GB microSDHC, but people report it works with 16GB microSDHC.... usually if it says SDHC, it should support all SDHC at least up to 32GB

so google {device} + {size}GB microSDHC

Buy.com has Kingston 8GB microSDHC with mini/full adapters for $19, FS

Newegg has A-Data 8GB microsdhc for $18, FS

Meritline has 4GB Kingston microsdhc for $11, FS


if you want 16GB microSDHC, be prepared to shell out at least $30...

{still remember paying $30 for a 4GB SDHC 18 months ago, and $70 for a 2GB SD card 3 years ago..... those days...}

 

I remember paying $150 for 16MB XD card.

 

there are very VERY VERY few 4gb microSD (not SDHC) cards but they exist.

sandisk mobile ultra is not worth the money imo. they are overpriced and there are many microSDHC's class 6 150x cards much cheaper with equal or better performance. Though I really dunno what or where to buy.

I'm searching for 4 cards and they have to be the fastest. 2gb SDHC, 4gb SDHC, 8gb micro SDHC and 16gb micro SDHC. If anyone finds a good deal please say so.
