Thanks dude
To add up, exFAT is supporting huge files, unlike FAT32 so it's better in a way to record in full HD or HD and in continous mode.
If not, popping the card into your phone will yield a question to format it, and then you're fine once it's done.

These are phone tests or what? Seems quite unreal to see SanDisk perform so good on read speeds under any condition...
Then it's of no use here. Caching on PC and other "tricks" kicking in are not valid on i9100. Your results are null in real life and here.
Do not confuse people furthermore with such statements. Measure the speed on your phone and post screens so to gain credibility and backup theoretical speeds you're claiming.
ps: SanDICK (LOL) ultra is declared at *30MB/s read speed therefore it can not achieve 45 in no circumstances.
* best real life conditions, not synthetic tests!
I have the SanDisk Ultra microSDHC 32GB Class 10. It is very fast, compatible and not expensive anymore (around EUR 22).
I think Samsung are more reliable for this phone.
It takes a little bit more compared to the 32GB when the u power it on, but results do pay it out.
On Amazon I read some problems with Sandisk, mostly because sometimes fake units mix with the original ones...not to say that Sandisk is rubbish but probably with some other brands u would have less problems.
I'd go for Lexar also...
Mostly cause, based on a thorough research and also upon my own personal experience, SanDiCK stated something not so true and marketed products as perfectly compatible (with our phone and Android OS in general) while not truthful at 100% (chip ROM fault, an EU branch will not admit it, but other branches might do confirm upon a strict request). SanDisk (directly or not, depends with whom you speak - USA or EU branch) admitted they 'had some" issues with pre March, then with pre May 2013 upgraded batches and alerted "all is fine now" if you swap for a brand new cards (BUT no one can guarantee you will get post May 2013 batch one, even trusted vendors can not guarantee this as a fact) at your S/H expences in EU (or zero in the USA). So it's up to a customer to decide to trust SanDisk and their products now, nevermind lifetime warranty... they will not compensate if you lose precious family photos or flics.
Trust not, as they tried to play many people around, me included... I got my money back through vendor, left a very negative and detailed review on the product, and (trust me on this one) will not make the same mistake again with them.
I opted for a Samsung Pro series and I'm glad that I did (until proven wrong) as this one is ~20% faster then SanDICK ULTRA series. Beat that SanDICK...
ps: yep, I intentionally wrote their company name wrongly twice!
I guess from what @Fevves says,sandisk isn't a good option for me:banghead:,and so you,i will go with samsung official sdcards
,or maybe another brand.Sent from my GT-P5100 using xda app-developers app
the higher number of class,the better in performance and write speed
.Sorry for bad english.
I have an USB drive (Extreme 64GB) from SanDisk, no problems yet, but I don't know about the sdcards. I use a Samsung 64GB microSDXC Pro for my S2 and it works just fine. Also quite fast.
The Samsung SDs are worth the money.

Any class 10 Samsung cards should do just fine.
I`m using 32GB cards in both my phone ( S2 ) and my tab ( tab2 3G ) for over 2 years.
I only had to format the card in the phone because of bad Kitkat sdcard drivers corrupting the filesystem every time you access the card, but other than that never had file corruption or data loss.
I also save recorded videos / photos directly on card and class10 seems to handle it just as good as the internal memory.

2Im just using amazon.com as a platform to show the cards All are Sandisk cards and all values are from Sandisk's website
Entry level:
Class 4
Mid Range: *(I use this to store all my music and videos(most are 1080p) Runs as expected, did tests and transfer speeds between my pc and either this or the internal card offer the same speed)
Class 10 Speeds up to 30MB/s
Performance Range:
Class 10 Speeds up to 80MB/s Reads and 50MB/s Writes
WTF Perforance Range: *(Max capacity is only 16GB) **(Quite sure you won't get these speeds on the SII or any other android device)
Class 10 Speeds up to 95MB/s
The Mid Range card should be more than enough...1Class 6 or 10 should give you good speed.
Sandisk or Samsung. those are bit expensive, but good.1Thanks dude,i will give it a try.
Because I once bough a cheap one (one of those chinese), and my pc and phone didn't recognize it.11Adding some:
SDSDQU-064G-U46A - should be or should have been the monster but most pre March 2013 can become corrupted or defective as XC are exFat and SII (if not on CM rom) is using FAT32 and you should reformat it to FAT32 (do not use WIndows system format!!!).
Personal story on that one in a very short manner: It just died on me 2 days ago after being used from the September 2012... I have no remedy for it, it's simply dead. I'm in the middle of a dispute with Amazon and from Monday with SanDisk too so to get reimbursed if they're not able to guarantee the subst. card will be from a new batch and with an upgraded ROM chip!
Said that, I have an old class 4 (I think, but unsure as it's from my wife's old Nokia XM5800) 4GB Nokia card mounted now and 720P videos are registering without a stutter, I haven't tried 1080P.
Screens: On the left is a SanDisk Ultra Mobile SDXC class 10 UHS1 64GB and on the right is a crappy Nokia class 4 4GB 2008 card, notice the (not) "great" difference??? Last screen is showing my current layout of the distributed memory on my SGS2. Remark: No apps/games are moved to any other memory but everything is installed on main and I have a total of 254 installed apps and 76 of preinstalled phone apps - as reported by Clean Master. That include 3 SatNav apps with respective maps.
So, at the end of the day: Even many new cards are classified as ultra giga fast you won't be able to see that speed on SGS2.
Advice: Go only for genuine products of a well known brands and retailers you can really make sense of your warranty if it breaks. I guess Pro class HC of 32GB would suffice and choice is vast. Samsung is selling 32GB Plus series at around 22-25 EUR in Europe. I just ordered a Samsung MB-MGBGB/EU Pro 32GB class 10 UHS-1 for 34 EUR so I have recording capacity for the New Year's Eve and night, until I solve the issue with SanDisk and get substitution or reimbursement.
Cheers.
