Rating + 5 Awesome. It works perfectly/


Pros: It does what it is supposed to. I installed it on a spy camera that I bought on ibay. I worked flawlessly. I know it is not the fastest, but it does the job. For the price you cannot go wrong.
I remember a 2 Gigs memory used to cost like $60 no long ago, so there you go.

Cons: Nothing so far. I'm happy with it.

Rating + 5 Works well with LG Chocolate Touch


Pros: Low price, good performance. Fast r/w between PC and card.

Cons: Most microSD cards come with an SD adapter, but this one does not. I don't need it so it doesn't bother me, but if you want the adapter, you should either buy one or buy a microSD card that comes with one. The picture clearly shows that this card does not include the adapter, so definitely take notice.

Other Thoughts: I bought this card so that I could put more music onto my LG Chocolate Touch cell phone. It does the job just fine and it doesn't take all that long to transfer data between the PC and the card. I was also able to rip some of my DVDs to an MP4 format and play them from the phone with no problems at all. Some people will say that you need a Class 4 or 6 card to play video, but this one works just fine. I used Handbrake to do the encoding/compression and used a quality factor of 90% with 96kbps on the audio w/ a resolution of 320x176 and the video playback is very smooth.
One other note is that this card can only be used in devices that recognize SDHC, the HC standing for "high capacity". Make sure your device supports this or it WILL NOT work. It's not the card's fault.

Rating + 5 Pretty Fast for Class 2


Pros: Well I have to say I was a bit concern about the Class 2 rating but when I did a benchmark I got an average of 6 mb/s for Write Rate and 19 mb/s for Read Rate. So thats pretty good transfer rates especially since I really am more concern about the read rates. I have 2 of these in Photofast and the speeds are just find for MS Pro Duo use in PSP. 16gb for $30 on black Friday, thats pretty cool. I also purchase 2 of the Transcend ones that were on sale on Black Friday for the same price and they work exactly the same as for as the PSP goes and the bench marks came back the same with the Photofast adapter.

Cons: I think at the time it wasn't noted that it was Class 2or at least not very noticeably. Which was annoying cause I could have just waited and the Transcend came back into stock right after I bought these for the same price so I was really annoyed at that but it turn out okay for the purpose I'm using these for they work just fine. I'll give it 5 stars because it works just as fast as my Class 6 Transcend maybe just a slightly lower Write speed but its also a Sandisk name which I think has Quality behind the name that I feel assure it wont die on me.

Other Thoughts: If you are planning to use a MS Pro Duo adapter like Photofast CR5400 then make sure after you put 2 of these in to Format them IN the PSP and not on your computer because they wont be recognize for the full maount until you format in your PSP. I stupidly forgot to check the comments on my Photofast site and didn't do this right away and only saw 8gb out of the 16 with both MicroSD cards in the adapter and fiddled around with it until I Blue Screened so it was pain. Hopefully saving someone else the grief and let you guys know that you need to put adapter into PSP then format it in there before you PC wil recognize the full amount.

Pros: Good price, large capacity

Rating + 5 tons of storage


Pros: Bought this to use as a storage device in my Samsung SGH-A737. It works flawlessly. The manual said that the limits of memory were at 4GB with the exception of the SanDisk which topped out a 8GB.

Cons: None so far.

Other Thoughts: ***********DO YOUR RESEARCH*************
Make sure to research your own phone or other device's manual/specs to be sure it is compatible.

Rating + 5 Great MicroSDHC Card!


Pros: -Price (I bought this for $19.99 with Free Shipping)

-Size (8GB, lots of space for a cheap price!)

-Speed (quite fast for only a 'Class 2' card i would think as it does around 4MB/s when transferring a large file to it through Windows Vista to my Sandisk Sansa e250 (v1) DAP (Digital Audio Player) running Rockbox Firmware (build r20603))

-Reliable Brand (it's worth the extra 3 dollars or so to get this over the other lesser brand names on this site in my opinion and it comes with a 5 year warranty)

Cons: None overall.

but if I had one small gripe it would be that shipping took 6 days to arrive at my house although I can't complain to much because newegg clearly stated the free shipping of this item was between 3-7 days.

Other Thoughts: This card is mislabeled as a 'Class 4' on the website when it's actually a 'Class 2' card on the packaging and on the card itself.

although it's speed is Class 4 as it does around 4MB/s as I stated above on my Sandisk Sansa e250 player running Rockbox firmware (build r20603) on it.

i think this card 'might' be faster depending on what device you use to transfer stuff to but i have nothing else to test it on so i cant comment on this to much.

i am pretty sure official specs for Class 2 = 2MB/s , Class4 = 4MB/s , Class6 = 6MB/s. so based on this im getting Class4 speeds.

overall i definitely recommend this card over other brands due to it comes with a 5 year warranty and Sandisk is a name your can trust in flash memory storage. so it's worth the few extra dollars it costs to get this over other lesser brand names on this site of the same capacity.

Rating + 5 Don't assume, do your research!!


Pros: Works just fine in HC compatible devices. Make sure you understand that the HC in the term "MicroSDHC" means "High Capacity" and is not backward compatible to older devices that were developed before the new high capacity memory was around.

Cons: Only works in devices that can read the "HC" microSD cards. That means HIGH CAPACITY.... pretty much anything 4 Gig and higher in the MicroSD format will be of the "HC" variety, and might not work in your device. You need to find out if your device (laptop, cellphone, GPS, MP3 player, whatever) can read/write to an HC version of the MicroSD format. They put the term "MicroSDHC" in the title of the product for a reason, to alert buyers that this is a HIGH CAPACITY format and will not work on many older devices that can only read the standard capacity MicroSD cards.

Other Thoughts: Before you assume the memory card is 'defective' you need to do your own research and figure out if the device you want to use this in will actually work with the HC versions of the MicroSD format. If you don't believe me, Google it for yourself. Also go to the MicroSD page on Wikipages. It is all explained there. Don't be a jacka$$ and give low ratings because you don't understand how electronics work, or are too lazy to check with your device's manufacturer. The two terms "MicroSD" and "MicroSDHC" are NOT the same thing.
