Worth upgrading to a MicroSDXC?



Hi, your link didn't work for me. Was that linking to the SanDisk U1 64GB cards?

Since the UX rating system is different from the Class X rating system, does anyone know how read/write speeds differ between U1 and Class10?

Also, since this is cutting edge on the SD card sizes might 64GB SDXC cards come down significantly in price by the time our phones actually arrive? late June/early July?

Amazon.com: SanDisk Ultra 64GB microSDXC Card Plus Adapter (SDSDQUA-064G-U46A): Computers & Accessories

try that, it says it's a class 10. Also, the S3 being released isn't going to magically make the Micro SD cards come down in price.

The Sandisk Ultra UHS-1 cards would be class 30 using the old naming system. It offers 30MB/s read and write speeds.

Class 10 offers a minimum of 10MB/s (can be higher).

For $19 more you can get a UHS-1 card:

Am I missing something but looking at the pictures they look like the same card except that the second one has Full HD printed on the box. I personally like the first one due to the Technical Details and that it is sold and shipped from Amazon.

I think they're using a stock image, but you can see it says "UHS-1" in the description. If it's not a UHS-1 card you'd be entitled to your money back for a false description.

You can see the UHS-1 logo in this pic of the same card:

Amazon.com: SanDisk 64GB Mobile Ultra MicroSDXC Class 10 UHS-1 30MB/s Memory Card with SD Adapter (NEW VERSION) - Retail Packaging with Komputerbay SDXC USB Reader

The one I posted is fulled by Amazon, which means that Amazon handles packing, delivery, customer service and returns.
