Fast Data Transfer Speeds
The Samsung Essential microSDHC Memory Card offers a read speed of 24 megabytes per second (MB/s) and a write speed of 13 MB/s for optimal data transfer rates.* The card's Class 10 rating, the highest SDHC performance standard, ensures a quick response time from high-end cameras (such as DSLRs) when you're taking photos, and is especially ideal for recording full-HD video. Additionally, the read speed reduces your wait time when transferring photos to your PC.
Optimal Storage for Photos, Videos, and MP3 Files
With a capacity of 32 GB, the card can hold up to 8,000 photos (in 10-megapixel, superfine mode), 8 hours of HD video (1,920 by 1,080 pixels and 9 Mbps), or 560 hours of MP3 music (128 Kbps).*
Waterproof, Shockproof, and Magnet-Proof
The Samsung Essential microSDHC Memory Card features the company's "3 Proof" technology to keep your photos and other important files safe. Thanks to an epoxy molding compound, the card is waterproof for up to 24 hours, even when exposed to seawater--ideal protection in the case of a water-related mishap. If you drop your digital device in the water and it's damaged beyond repair, your data will still be secure.

This card consistently transfers data on my Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket at 10MBps, often reaching its maximum rate of 12MBps. I've never had a microsd card perform at its advertised class speed, much less at its maximum rate. Read speeds are consistent at it's max of 24MBps. Needless to say, performance (at least in my phone) is phenomenal and for the price is currently unbeatable. Do not hesitate if you can find it at $49 retail like I did. Simply do not pass it up for $70 or below.

Amazon Verified Purchase
I received my card in the mail packaging seemed small since I was expecting it to be new in a box, it wasn't. Opened the bubble wrap pack it came in and inside in a 4x2 zip lock bag was a Samsung micro SD and a SD card adapter that had no company branding (notice the picture the adapter says Samsung, mine doesn't). Already I wanna return it but decide hey ill benchmark it and see what the speeds are its supposed to be used for my phone and i have several adapters, the card looks brand new no scratches on the plating all the paint intact no scratches etc...... Results ranged from roughly 9.3 to 7.1 write and 23 to 21.9 read. My product definitely doesn't meet the required speeds to be a class 10 more so a class 6 since it more often benches at the 7 writes. I've started the refund process.
This Item wasn't purchased from amazon rather from another seller on amazon. Didn't want anyone to pass on this b/c of the review the seller was 360 mobile solutions.

Amazon Verified Purchase
As the title suggests, it's important to be vigilant when purchasing Micro SD cards - or any flash memory, for that matter, independent of the source - as there exists a large and sophisticated black market in counterfeit memory; in short - as a consumer, you need to trust, but verify.
For example: though your card may state that it's a Samsung 32GB Class 10 Micro SDHC, and your OS (operating system) may even read it as being a 32GB card, and you can (seemingly) load GBs upon GBs into it, and the font and the color and 'Made in Korea' all appear exactly as other cards you've had, the card may be neither the stated size nor the stated class. And, this is a problem.
Think of the fraudsters as pedophile-magicians who traffic in illusions - and also want to steal your money and innocence; and think of yourself, for the moment, as a kid with a cute smile and big piggy bank - because that's the way the pedophile-magician-fraudsters view you. But, you're going to grow up fast - and see beyond the tricks.
We won't 'go gentle into that good night.'
While you may not necessarily be a 'power user' or know or care much about Class and whether the card's writing at (a minimum of) 10MBs/sec, but you should be concerned that if the class was mislabeled on the card, then the memory size likely was misstated as well; misstated memory size is significant in that, as you snap away under the impression that you've got 32GBs at your disposal, and you take 1000s of images and GBs and GBs of video of 'Little Johnnie's First Steps' and 'Our Dream Cruise in Greece', those files - let's think of them as memories - may be corrupted or erased, because your card is really only 8GBs - and all of those images and videos will be gone. Forever. Like the subway 'magician' who just made your wallet disappear.
Remember: the magician-pedophile-fraudsters are relatively sophisticated; the physical drive will look similar to others you've purchased; your computer, camera and phone will read whatever drive size the magician-pedophile-fraudsters want you to believe it is.
That having been said, here's what you need to do: once you've received your card, you'll need to verify Class and verify Size prior to leaving feedback for the seller. This bears repeating: verify Class and Size prior to leaving feedback for the seller.
How to verify class: For Android phones, there exists a free app by Veluscek Ales - SD Tools - which allows you to see various details on the card, such as Manufacturer, Serial #, OEM ID etc. in addition to running Read and Write tests; pop the SD card into your Droid and fire up the app - if the card is a well-made counterfeit, then you likely won't be able to determine immediately whether it's fake from these listed details; if it's poorly done (for example, some fields are not filled out, the Serial # field is blank etc.), it may be readily obvious. With the details provided however, you can cross-reference the Serial etc., with the purported Manufacturer - the manufacturer will tell you in short time if it is authentic or not.
The litmus test is the Speed Test: run it; if the card states that you've got a Class 10 but consistent tests are Writing only at 6.9 to 7.2, there's likely an issue. Bear in mind: Class is based on minimum standards; cards should perform above these minimums.
There exist other applications for other devices to check speed - or to run from your laptop; check out how online.
How to verify size: the most comprehensive manner is to download the free H2testw V 1.4; it's an application written by a clever German guy - and is something of the Gold Standard for testing; it's super easy to use - and gives you the option of running it in either German or English; it will likely run about 4 hours to Test - Write and Verify - but is well worth the investment in time.
In brief, H2testw V 1.4 writes packets to the entirety of the drive, until it's full; then, it attempts to read back what it wrote to the drive, and in so doing determines 1) actual drive size and 2) whether there are errors on the drive ie whether it was able to read back without error everything it wrote.
If you've paid for 32GBs and are expecting 32GBs - verify that you've got 32GBs. Everything is not always as it seems.
Bottomline: beware of what you're buying; trust the vendor - but verify the product. And, be cognizant that not all who left positive reviews (either for the product itself or the vendor in particular) thoroughly tested the cards they received - and that failing to do so could run you the risk of losing important files/memories - pics, videos, documents - however it is that you use the memory.
Don't let the bad man steal your piggy bank - or defile you, or your files.
For example: though your card may state that it's a Samsung 32GB Class 10 Micro SDHC, and your OS (operating system) may even read it as being a 32GB card, and you can (seemingly) load GBs upon GBs into it, and the font and the color and 'Made in Korea' all appear exactly as other cards you've had, the card may be neither the stated size nor the stated class.
