1223578 2011-08-15 22:46:00 Am after a 16gb microSD card for a Asus tablet. (Class 4+ I think)

In terms of brand and performance, who has the best name? Am looking at around $50 maybe. Also best place to buy from?

1223579 2011-08-15 22:50:00 Maybe Sandisk Ultra?
Don't get on auctions - they are probably counterfeit.

If somethinng cheaper, it would be less performance. The std versions of Sandisk, Lexar etc.

1223580 2011-08-15 22:53:00 Personally, I'd go with SanDisk, Kingston or Apacer, and I'd go Class10. inphinity (7274)
1223581 2011-08-15 22:55:00 I bought a Kingston from Ascent recently. They have a good selection. user (1404)
1223582 2011-08-15 23:00:00 I got an Apacer from PBtech for my smartphone, it seems quick enough and it was fairly cheap www.pbtechnz.com only class 4, can't say I am up on the classes and what they relate to though.

Some apps run from it but mostly I have my music stored on it, have tried playing HD video without issues also.

Thanks.

Ended up coming to $58 when you add delivery ($10 for a sd card, seriously?) and gst.

Is that right? The buggers, would have been cheaper from Ascent at that price, rather steep postage for a SD card .50c envelope anyone?

The Apacer brand is good though.
