I ordered this micro SDHC card for a Nokia E71 phone. I don't have the phone yet, but I decided to try it as an 'SSD' (solid-state disk) on my Windows XP laptop (Lenovo T61).

Suffice it to say, this is the fastest SDHC card I have ever tested! I've seen other cards that are a bit faster, but I was especially not expecting this tiny thumbnail of a micro-SDHC card to be this fast. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase this card if looking for an 8GB micro SDHC card.

Test Setup:
-Tested with provided USB adapter (it's so cute and tiny!)
-Tested with Delkin Expresscard/34 memory card reader (rated at 15MB/sec)... although Expresscard slots have a LOT higher theoretical speed

Speed Results:
* HD Tach (3.0.4), 19-20 MB/sec
* results were the same for USB or Expresscard adapter

In short, I am VERY happy this purchase. There are a few slightly cheaper micro SDHC cards, but this blew me away! I can't wait to see how it works in my phone.

I'm also 'testing' it as a secondary-drive in the laptop, running from the Expresscard/34 adapter. I've loaded some basic apps, to help speed up my boot times a bit (no data/results yet). The only 'primary' app I've loaded to the card is Firefox 3.0.1, and it runs decently fast. I think the internal SATA drive is a bit faster... plus the SATA drive has a buffer, so it can cache data, where the microSDHC card doesn't really do that. But since the memory card has ~1.0-1.6 ms access times, it speeds some random-read performance.

For transfer speed (class 6)and capacity, this memory card from a major manufacturer stands out. Not sure what 'Mobile Ultra' means other than marketing for the cell phone crowd, but it worked on me - for my T-Mobile G1 phone. The card slid right in, and registered 7,782 MB in total space available. Excellent. I like the itty-bitty USB reader too; it comes with a little 3 inch long lanyard with a jewelry clasp and a tiny key ring. The reader is the width of one of my fingernails and 1 inch long.
At 8 GB you can get aprox. 2,000 MP3 songs, or over 25,000 2 MP photos, or over 40 hours of MPEG 4 video on this card, according to the packaging print from SanDisk.
The warranty is 2 years for the reader, and 10 years for the card. Again, excellent.
It came by way of the U.S.P.S., in a padded shipping envelope with no damage. The manufacturer's packaging is solid as well.
Had it in the phone a month or so with no problems. All's well.
UPDATE: Two years next month and still performs well.

I was having problems synching my LG Dare with my PC to download mucic, so I got the bright idea to load music on to an SD card and insert in to my phone. This has worked great. The best part of buying this card is that it came with a USB adapter, so besides listening to music on my phone, I can insert the SD card in to the USB adapter and put in the USB port on my PC or any applicable system and voila I have music!!! Only con - I wish it was a bright color, so I can find it easier.

This product is well worth the price just under $25.

I had purchased this product a month ago and it definately works as stated. A prior reviewer stated that it came with a Class 4 card. That I believe to be the wrong item sent. Mine does say Class 6. The speed is the best I have seen. The reader I love just as much. Windows found right away and within 5 seconds, the card and reader was loaded. I was worried that the reader was made of metal and would chip off the black paint after a few uses. It is in fact made of plastic and feel this was the best choice. does not feel cheap in any way. So compact and portable. well worth the money.

I bought this to use in my Samsung Instinct and so far it's doing an excellent job. I have loads of music and pictures on it already and still have plenty of room left.

I bought this for my T-Mobile G1 and it works perfectly. Transferring files from my computer to the card was super speedy using both my G1 or the included handy USB adapter. I almost want to buy another one to use as a flash drive because of it's speed and portability. You can't really go wrong with SanDisk for your flash memory needs. It's a pretty good price for what you get too. Just be sure your device takes Micro SDHC and you should be good to go.

Couldn't be more satisfied with this purchase. Item arrived as described, 8GB Class 6 card in sealed packaging. Formatted on my PC and dropped into my BlackBerry Curve 8300 and I am good to go!

This package comes with everything you need, the 8GB Class 6 Mobile Ultra Micro SDHC with the USB adapter to your computer. I didn't really notice much difference in speed from my 4GB Class 2 Micro SDHC on my phone, but it's FAST when the card is used with my computer (with the USB adapter). And yes, this one does say "Class 6" on the card itself.

The 8GB Class 6 SDHC card works with my HTC 8525 with Windows Mobile 6 OS. If your mobile phone supports any Micro SDHC, it will work with up 32 GB.

This is a quality product but is also a Class 2 card. The first time I ordered one, I received a Class 6 card and of course I was happy as hell. However, I lost that one and ordered another one just to receive a class 2 card. I called SanDisk and this model line is definitely a class 2 card, or used to be anyway. Which means anything better was just luck of the draw. It happens to some of us lucky ones, and it doesn't to some of us unlucky ones. So, since I got what was adertised I couldn't be disappointed. It has worked reliably for the past year so I'm happy. Circumstances may have changed in the last year as it seems some people are receiving class 4 cards now. Oh well, sounds like a lottery to me. Good Luck!

I got this great accessory for my Blackberry Bold 9000. Its one of the best things you can buy for your smart phone. Its able to store so much on it. You can store pictures, videos, music and just about anything else. This card is also a class 6 which makes it very fast just about the fastest cards you can get right now. Keep in mind you can only really use the class 6 speed when you transfering data onto the card. Class 6 cannot be used on current cell phones right now, the fastest a cell phone can use is about class 2. Although you can use the class 6 speed for any kind of video or digital still camera. The card also comes with a usb adapter so you can transfer the files to the card from you pcs usb port. The card is also very very small. Sandisk is the leader for memory especially any kind of memory cards or usb flash drive. They also offer a great warranty.

Update April 2011: After owning this memory card for more than 2 years its still going strong. I am really glad I purchased it. It has really come in handy with my HTC Desire Android Smartphone. I am using it with a custom rom that supports appsd+. Without this memory card I would have a lot less memory for apps on my phone. Also this memory card is a class 6 so it has really helped with the speed of my appps that are stored on it.
