Patriot Signature 16 GB MicroSDHC Class 4 Flash Memory Card with Standard SD Adapter PSF16GMCSDHC43P Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The description was not correct. The package didn't include the MiniSD adapter. The part number was correct.
This was not a problem for me. I only wanted the MicroSD and the Full SDCard Adapter.
The performance of the card is well above a class 4 of 4 MB/s. Others are selling class 10 cards that run at the same speed.
Patriot seems to make fast reliable products. This was my 2nd Patriot purchase and I plan on making many more.

SanDisk 16 GB microSDHC Flash Memory Card SDSDQ-016G (Bulk Packaging) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This micro SDHC card is the best in the US market. Samsung has developed a 32GB one but it is only available in Asia at the time of this writing. With that said, this is a good card. I bought it for my Blackberry Curve 8300. If you are going to use it for a Blackberry, make sure that you have the Blackberry OS 4.5 or later as it will not read the whole 16GB if you do not.
Even though this is a Class 2 card (the 16GB Class 4's, like the 32GB cards, are only available in Asia right now), it reads and writes fairly quickly. The card is fast enough to record and play videos on my Curve, and saving a couple minute video after shooting it literally takes seconds to write.
I have two minor gripes about this card, and they aren't that bad. One is the price. You can get an 8GB card for less than half of the price of this one. However, it is still "new" so that's the penalty for being an early adopter.
The other gripe I have is that with the Samsung reader (see the bundle Amazon sells with this card) will NOT format this card in anything other than FAT32. Now the Curve can't understand NTFS, so for me it's not a big deal, but for someone who may want to use this as take away storage, just be aware of that.
Other than that, I think this card is great. Also please note this card DOES come with an SD adapter. Don't let the Bulk Packaging fool you. If you have an SD card reader, you will not have to go out and buy a separate card reader for this. Save yourself the 5 bucks if you can. I hope this review was helpful.

Topram 16GB Class 4 MicroSDHC Card with SD Adapter and R10B Micro USB Flash Card Reader / Writer. Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Like most USB or SD/MicroSD/etc. cards you won't get the full (in this case) 16GB. You get 14.8GB with this product, which is decent enough, and for the price that I got this for, it can be ignored. This is a Class 4 MicroSD card, so it transfers at 4MB/second as a minimum transfer rate. This means that you can fill the whole MicroSD card up in 62 minutes, which is awesome compared to the slower and older Class 2 which takes twice as long.
Right now (that is at the time I bought it), it is the best deal. Class 6 16GB are (were) too expensive, and I can just wait a bit longer for the transfer. Keep in mind, the 4MB/second is the minimum, so in Class 6, 6MB/second is the minimum, that doesn't mean that the Class 6 is going to transfer faster than the Class 4 in practical use, they may just run the same speed. But I don't have a Class 6 card, so I can't say for sure. For a Class 6, the transfer time (assuming they are all running at the minimum) would be cut by 20 minutes.
Moving along, at the moment (October 2010), 32GB MicroSD cards are exorbitantly expensive. You could buy 2 or 3 of this 16GB Class 4 card in the place of a 32GB card. Which is a good thing for you if you want to be able to swap things out and around, or use one for data, and the other for say, a boot disc, instead of putting all your eggs in one basket.
I use mine in my Archos 5 Internet Tablet to store all my movies, that way I can have all my movies removable, and if I had two, I could load movies onto one, while watching movies on the other.
It comes with a USB adapter, which is really handy. You can attach it to a string and onto a keychain for easy transportation. If the card is going in your camera phone, you could pull the pictures out wherever you go. It's blue, so I know what's what if I'm fumbling around in the dark.
Overall: Great product for the price, especially if you need the USB adapter. If time has passed since this review was written, then price would be different of course, but keep in mind some points I said above. Also, you don't need an expensive brand to feel better or safer with things like this. They are all built the same pretty much, just get what works if you want to save yourself some money.
