Hey Guys

I have a Xpreria Pro with 8 GB sandisk memory card. Now I need a memory card of 16 Gb. I am confused between Class 4 and Class 6. Does it give performance boost if using a class 6 Sandisk 16 Gb preferably this model .

Waiting for Suggestion.

If your phone is working fine on Class 4, then there's no point to use a class 6 card. It just allows faster data transfer rates, which your phone doesn't need, unless it's recording a video in HD.

But you can buy a class 6 card if you want future proofing or if will copy data from a PC frequently.

Thanks for the response. I think I am going for class 6 then. 200-300 extra spending will doesnt hurt for one one time investment. I do transfer files to and fro from tha mobile and pc and viceversa. HD Video recording is once in a moon usage. But I play games on it which are installed on the memory card.

It would be a good purchase. SanDisk memory cards are great.
I too had purchased a class 4 8gb card of SanDisk recently. ;)

memory stuffs are getting cheaper these days.... so getting higher class card won't affect ur budget that much

me too got a Samsung 16GB Class 6 microSD few days ago for my brother, i got it for 465 from ebay using 150 coupon

if you want class 6 then get class 10 instead. their prices are near normally.

Actually the OP wanted a fast card. For his phone Class 4 is enough. Still he's going for higher class.

Enough for making OP more confused! :p

in case he wants faster usb transfers. anyways, is the phone bound by limited transfer speed ?
