Default Sd card classes

Ok im not good at sd cards, can someone tell me what's the difference on sd classes? I know the lower the class is the slower the mbits/s is. I was looking up some micro sd on ebay the class 2 were the most expensive ones. Can someone tell me why?and whats the best sd for the phones were using now or at least for our g2? Thanks!

IDK why class two was the most expensive, I always run class 6, higher then that are extremely hard to find, and i'm not sure what the expansion port's max speed is, I have heard there is no difference with the one or two higher class 10 cards that are available

SD: Class0: below 2GB
SDHC: Class2(2MB/sec)
SDHC: Class4(4MB/sec)
SDHC: Class6(6MB/sec)

Class2&4 fit a smart-phone the most.
Class6 is kinda too quick for a cell...people often use it in a DSLR(Digital Single Lens Reflex)

The quicker speed of transferring a card has ,the bigger the capacity is.(well......usually.....)
BUT when you use a very very big card in you phone.Let's say 32 GB . Your phone WILL be burdened by the card,thus slowing down significantly.

Hope what I said was right..
