Q: Large micro SDHC Cards

Hello guys and gals,

I am starting to feel the pinch with an 8 Gb memory card and wondered if anyone had found a good, cheap and compatible 16 or 32 Gb micro SD cards for the Desire S.

EBay seems to have some 32gb cards for about 10 GBP which sounds insane.

Anyone got a suggestion for this UK Desire S user?

You don't want a cheap one, spend those 30€ on a class 10 card. It's well worth it its faster and will probably not die on u as some cheap one might.

Do NOT buy cards from ebay. They will always be fake, when they arrive they will say 32gb but if you perform a scan with a tool it shows its actual capacity to be 1gb! Don't fall for it like I did!

Just use google shopping and search for the cheapest price for a memory card from a reputable site.

In fact, I see you're in the UK and theres a good deal on from play:

I bought a 16GB class 6 about half a year ago for £18 so this is a pretty good deal.

From experience classes dont make much of a difference at all, maybe miniscule. This card comes with a 5 year warranty so no need to worry about it dying on you.

I ordered a 16gb class 10 y/day from play for £17.99 It's Pny but will do the job

Cheers for the replies. I thought eBay would have been a rip but you never know with that place, some crazy deals happen and we miss them because we fear them (and quite rightly 99% of the time).

Might pounce on the 16 Gb Class 10 from Play.com.

Anyone know if the Desire S can take 32Gb cards and are there any good deals on those? Best I've found is £38, give or take pennies.
