Though I wish I had waited a couple of weeks to buy this card (the price dropped 30 dollars in the past two weeks), I have nothing but good things to say about the card. Easy to load, easy to read. I managed to put about 11 gigs on here in the first three days (lots of music) and the access has been flawless. Word of caution, be careful with the card reader. My first attempt led to a corrupted card which I had to return. May have been a manufacturing defect (bought from best buy, not from Amazon. Best buy charged 99.00). I reccomend loading the card in the device before adding data rather than using the reader and then inserting loaded card.

All in all, a miracle of storage on a tiny card. I eagerly await the 32 gb in a year or two.

Great card, works great, is exactly what it says, and comes with SanDisk's standard warranty. A couple things to remember, 16 "gigabytes" in manufacturer terms equates to about 14.9 true formatted gigabytes (because a kilo for a computer is 1024). Also the MicroSDHC standard is the same card and interface as the old MicroSD; the difference is in the compression method. This means that many smartphones that didn't support SDHC when they were made can support it if the software is upgraded. An example of this is any Windows Mobile phone that has been upgraded to WinMo 6.1; 6.1 supports SDHC.

I bought this microSD card for my G1 phone and it works great no problems.

I bought this for the purpose of dual-booting Android from it (on my Barnes&Noble Nook Color). See [...] Short version: for this purpose, buy Sandisk-branded class 4 microSD cards. I've been using it for over a month and the performance has been enjoyable, so I guess they're right. :)

I bought this ithem for the new Sprint HTC Touch Pro phone. After formatting it to the phones specification it worked like a charm, there's so much room on the card that I don't know what to do with the rest of it. It's the perfect Card for my phone.

The picture shows a Class 4 memory card. This is the reason that I bought it. However, upon closer inspection, the product description is for a Class 2 memory card. I cannot recommend that anyone purchase this product, given that the picture is so misleading. I hope Amazon changes the picture soon.

This microSD card was advertised as being a Class 4, but it's definitely a Class 2--much slower. I bought it as a gift for someone, telling them that it was a Class 4. Now, it looks like I'm as phony as is this product...VERY, VERY DISAPPOINTED.

I specifically ordered this one because I wanted a retail packaged item.
They sent me the cheaper bulk packaged item anyway.
And it didn't work (that's why I wanted the retail package, at least I can make sure it hasn't been opened.)
Not only did it not work, after inserting to the slot, it ran so hot instantly it almost burned my fingers.
Something is definitely wrong with the unit I received.
I've never had similar problems with other microSD or regular SD cards in the past.
I am returning this tomorrow.
I wouldn't recommend this seller because both listings ($24.02 and the $23.7x ones are by the same seller) and yet he sent me the cheaper one still.
I will order another one but in a different brand and for sure a different seller.

The RIM 9530 comes with an 8GB Sandisk microSDHC already installed with phone. Despite same, I wanted even more storage on my new phone to accomodate a bigger (business) e-mail store, large work files and records (convenient availability and back-up when traveling away from office), and room for personal files including music, audible books (now have lots of room for these right on my phone), pictures, etc. This additional storage capability right on my phone allows me to leave my laptop (PC) at work/home for some trips - a blessing indeed given the hassles of air travel, luggage, etc. When phone is connected to your PC (or borrowed/public PC), the 16GB card can be readily accessed as a USB mass storage device. Very handy.

No problems with this (16 GB Sandisk micro sdhc) card - installed quickly and transferred/loaded all files without any problems. I have been using this since late November (including almost daily synchronization between phone and PC) and am pleased to confirm that as of January 12, 2009 I have not experienced a single problem with the card. Highly recommended for others using a compatible phone who can benefit from the additional storage capability offered by this fast, reliable 16GB microSDHC.

It's kind of hard to review something as utilitarian as a memory card. It does what it's supposed to in my phone (which will recognize up to 32 gig cards). I tend to install as much as I can on the memory card to conserve the limited space most phones allow the user. There's been no noticeable difference in program run or data access speed for anything on the card. Delivery was on time & without damage. The only downside was that I needed the card then & couldn't wait for prices to drop.
