Help Buying microsd card for GT-i5510

chatbox08

Lurker
Hi! My GT-i5510 phone is awesome so far but it's getting laggy because I have too many applications so I plan to buy a new microsd card.
I need your advice for buying it since I've limited knowledge about this.

With GT-i5510 I know that I can buy expand my memory to 32 GB but I just want to know what's the preferred card speed? Does it matter if I buy class 2 or class 4? I'm afraid if I buy class 4 card my phone can't read it.
Could someone help me please????

Thanks
 
It matters .
Class 4 is fast and it is RECOMMENDED to use a class 4 SD card .
Though you are wrong .
I have almost 300 applications and never suffered a lag .
I am using class 4 16 GB without a hitch .
Class 2 SD card + Froyo (Android 2.2) app 2 SD means a slow ,laggy applications (even if you have 20-30).Class 2 SD is slower and laggy.

You can only expand your storage memory .App memory remain almost same about 170 MB + Froyo app2SD . BTW class 4 2GB SD card is usually bundled with the phone.Without a Dual partitioned SD card you are stuck to Low memory problems whether with 4/8/16/32 GB


It is best to use a Class 4 and above SD card .And for faster applications use a rooted phone+Dual partitioned SD card

Thanks a lot for the help :)
But just 2 more questions, what's dual partitioned SD card and rooted phone? I've read ur article about the low memory problem but since i'm no techo kinda person I still don't get it :(
 
hey guys, new to site and just recently got a 551. Not a bad phone for what I paid for it. I would like to upgrade the micro sd card and was wondering if a class 6 or 10 card would work with the phone.
