Wicked Fast MicroSDHC Card!Apr 13, 2009
By M. Paschall
"Computer Geek"
I specifically ordered this memory card for my Blackberry Curve 8330 with two goals in mind.
1: Store videos and music on my phone 2: Expanded memory for applications and documents
On both counts I have not been let down! This card is wicked fast when it comes to file transfers via the Blackberry software. I had expected, indeed planned, for a bit of a "hit" when using the RIM software to expedite file transfers (play lists, music, and videos) but if there is one I am not seeing it.
The included adapter is a handy add on bonus as I do have quite a few microSD cards lying around and can now use those for other devices that accept SD cards.
Oh, and it IS a Class 6 card.

Noticeable Difference Between Class 4 and Class 6Aug 02, 2009
By David
"mdavidf"
I purchased this 8GB - Class 6, upgrading from an 8GB - Class 4, because I needed the faster read/write speeds on my cell phone.
After installing it, I immediately noticed a faster response in the data transfer speeds. My ringtones, music, and pictures loaded faster, even when receiving a call.
I recommend upgrading to the Class 6 to anyone wanting/needing fast transfer rates.
The data transfer rates of SD Cards are:
(Read Speed of a Standard CD-ROM = 150 kb/s) Class 2 - (Equivalent to ~13x the read speed of a Standard CD-ROM) - 2 MB/s Class 4 - (Equivalent to ~26x the read speed of a Standard CD-ROM) - 4 MB/s Class 6 - (Equivalent to ~40x the read speed of a Standard CD-ROM) - 6 MB/s
So, as you can see, the Class 6 is approximately 50% faster than a Class 4.

Outstanding Micro SDHCJul 25, 2009
By Uncle Bob
"The gadget Doc"
I own 6 micro SDHC cards which I use to store a variety of images and files for access on a number of devices. I have 4 Transcend Micro SDHC 16gb cards which are clearly the fastest (data transfer, class 6) and most reliable cards that I have used.

MicroSDHC is GREAT - Adapter is JUNK!Oct 27, 2008
By Aaron Salyi
"Electronics NUT!"
My overall view of the Transcend MicroSD card is that the product itself is good; however, the adapter that comes with it is not HC compatible. I have contacted Transcend directly about this shortfall and they are replacing the adapters as we speak. I do not blame the vendor that sold the card as the package was sealed and it was not a pirated version of the product. There are many different products available through the Amazon website that are also not HC compatible but sold with high capacity markings. If I were to purchase more cards from Amazon.com I would ensure the vendor tested the functionality with HC cards before I ordered them or allowed them to be shipped to me. I suggest dealing direct wth the manufacturer for these VERY FAST MicroSD Cards as they are now available directly on their website.

Works perfectly, shipped as describedFeb 10, 2009
By Justin Johnson I can confirm that this is a class 6 8gb card. I bought for $16.99 and couldn't be happier. It's working perfectly with my T-Mobile G1. I highly recommend this product.
