Do class 10 cards work on the sensation ? Any thoughts or recommendations for either 16 or 32gb cards?
lol. u meant for sensation right?..i was like damn, what sd card is this thats a substitute for a phone?
bt anyway, really 16gb or 32gb is a personal preference, you cant ask that since we dont know how much music/movies/games/whatever ur gonna have..
personally, i got a class 6(which should really do what it needs to in this phone) instead of 10 as i believe a class 10 won't really make a difference plus the class 6 was a lil cheaper..
i guess we'll find out tho since i pick up my sensation on the 12th

Yup.

I have a class 8 4GB - Never needed more. Maybe 8GB would be good, for when I shoot a lot of videos, but the main thing I use the phone for is just talking/browsing/flashing/flashing/flashing(I am addicted to that)/texting and such. Nothing that uses the SD card, other than my titanium backup and a place to put my ROMs on.

ha indeed I meant "for the sensation". Speed is more important to me than size. I want to wait the least amount of time to capture the next photo or to view my music/photo libraries.

So no difference between class 6 and 10? I had heard class 10 cards don't work on andorid devices. This seems to be bunk info?

I currently have a class 4 16gb and it seems slow on my G2 especially galleries.

well there prolly isnt that much of a diff in this phone..personally, im content with a class 6 and i dont feel like paying more for a class 10 is worth it. But class 10 cards do work on android devices.
check out this thread for some input http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1072839
as some people have commented here that a class 2 recorded and played 1080p videos with no lag and such..and others obtaining low speeds on their class 10 cards...plus it also differs on the card manufacturer as most with the same classes have diff speeds.

I was curious about this myself so I emailed HTC tech support and they told me "There's no benefit to getting a Class 10 card; the phone will only read/write between Class 2 and Class 4 speeds. Thus, there's no real reason to spend the extra money for a Class 10 card". That's a bummer if it's true.
