What does that mean? Class 4 (I am guessing it is slower?)
Don't worry, I found out the answer on yahoo answers here:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080124113750AA…What would happen if I put a Class 4 card in my mobile phone? Would it be way too slow?
class only matters with regards to video recording.
and social status.
It also determines how long you have to wait for your camera to finish emptying its buffer.
When you take several photos quickly, they're written to the camera's buffer first as it is much faster than the memory card. The camera then immediately starts writing it to the memory card to free up the buffer for more shots. If your memory card is slow, that process will take longer, which means you'll have to wait a longer time before you can start taking photos again.
I guess I wouldn't mind for photos and things like that but what about games? My phone has been rooted and I installed a program which can install games directly and play from the sd card. So, probably the class 4 wouldn't be good if you intent to play games from the SD card as it would be too slow, Am I right about that?
If your game writes to the SD card, it will be slower. However games typically don't write huge amounts of data, so the slowdown would probably not be noticeable.
Read speed on SD cards is faster for "extreme" cards, but for a game, the read speed of this card should be adequate. Unlikely you'd see a slow-down.
As the above people have implied, write speed is important when you are writing several megabytes (like multiple photos), or have a continuous stream of high-bandwidth data (like HD video).
You will also notice the difference when copying large amounts of data from your PC to the card. 10 gigabytes of MP3 files, for instance, will take ~17 minutes with a class 10 card, or ~42 minutes on a class 4 card. (these are estimates, I know there is file system overhead too).
A slow card will really bite if you copy TV shows to your card, and watch them on your smartphone on the way into work on the train. After a few times of that, you'll wish you had bought a faster card for a few dollars more.
MemoryCity often have sale on their microSD card, last time they have class 10 Sandisk Ultra 32GB for only a couple of dollars more with free shipping. Wait for their sale if you are not in a hurry for a 32GB microSD card.
yeah frankie where are you?! Its almost Christmas!
these have been $25 for ages i thought
I've bought a few things from him, or her. Reliable seller.
yeah not the cheapest
i got a $20 32gb class 10 off here a while ago (i think it was shopping square?)
This was $20 Delivered when it shows up here on several deal. So may be worth waiting or spend a little bit more if you need a faster card.
Not worth it for C10
Even 16GB UHS-1 micro sd cards are often under $10(which makes 32GB less than $20). I don't see this as a bargain.
they also sell the 64GB stick for $39 starting on 4/12
Seems like a pretty average price to me. Not much difference from officeworks.
they also sell the 64GB stick for $39 starting on 4/12

Got excited, saw class 4, no longer excited :(
