I'm planning to buy a 16gb or 8gb micro sd card for my triumph. What is the best class to buy and what brand works well with the triumph? Does class really matters should I get class 10 or 6 will be good enough?
FWIW: I run a class 10 16GB purchased at a local store: Microcenter. Micro Center - Computers, Electronics, Computer Parts, Networking, Gaming, Software, and more!. I think it was $28.
I think you'll be safe with a Class 6, but a Class 10 doesn't cost much more and you might see the difference in the transfer times to your computer.
I think Im going to get the PNY 16gb class 10 for $29.oo not including shipping. I have read good reviews on amazon about it.
Darn, they ran out! Must have been a great deal/item.I think Im going to get the PNY 16gb class 10 for $29.oo not including shipping. I have read good reviews on amazon about it.

I am late to the party for this question, but find a lot of people spending more than they need to on cards. Not long ago I bought a Kodak "flip" style video camera that will do 1080HD. They provided a small CL6 card with it and everyone said you needed a 10. I talked to the Kodak engineer and he said CL6 was all that was needed, and in fact, all the buss was rated for.
I have been having this "faster memory" argument since I put DIPS in the first PC in '83. The card won't be written to faster than it was programmed to write and a faster card doesn't accomplish anything over a card that is fast enough.
if a Kodak can write 1080HD data to a CL6 card, then a phone can too. There is in fact less data being written (read slower) than on the Kodak.
If you are going to bump up the clock, then maybe it will write to the buss quicker, all depends on the architecture, but I still wouldn't buy more than a CL6 card for this application.
The higher the class the faster the write speed.Do Cl10 cards generally write & read faster via USB transfers to a desktop?
The higher the class the faster the write speed.
Class 2 2 MB/s
Class 4 4 MB/s
Class 6 6 MB/s
Class 10 10 MB/s
Those are the write speeds that SD cards are capable of attaining, I made no claim against any device. Just stating what the classes are capable.Only if you plug your microsd card into a media reader not if it's being transferred with the phone.
Here's a pretty good deal (finally, one that didn't sell out before I got there) on a microsdhc class 10 16gb card at meritline: click for link, but first:
If you haven't already, check out Mrrebates, which is free to join - I have embedded my referral code if you don't mind - click on the Meritline store link inside mrrebates, you will get an additional 3% cash back via check or paypal. I also use ebates for similar cash back deals, but they don't have meritline as a vendor. Both have brownie points for referrals and a ton of stores to get cash back at - remember to visit the store through the service's clickable links.
Has anyone confirmed that going to a class 10 from a class 4 improves the "Skippy" video while panning? My friends Iphone takes much smoother video and was wondering if going to the class 10 will actually improve the Triumphs video so it is "smoother" when panning.If you are going to be recording HD Video I wouldn't get anything but a class 10.
