My refurbished warp doesn't have a SD card?Is a 32 GB a overkill??I mean' im really not a camera nut.But, I will take some pics.Will it help the general operation of the phone?Or would a 8GB be more practical?

Class! Focus on the sd card class! Class 10 being the best :D
HTH
 
In the 8 months of having this Warp i went from stock card to a 16gb then a 32gb and now im running a SanDisk 64GB Mobile Ultra MicroSDXC Class 6 Memory Card And it works flawlessly.
yes it might sound like overkill but i have plenty of 90-120 minute movies on there in AVI format. Also lots of shows and 30 min clips i downloaded from youtube over 30 full Music albums and some where in the 1,600s Songs in MP3 format as well as in FLAC format then there are the pictures and video recordings along with voice recordings,Books and Audio Books as well as a full offline Dictionary.You will be surprised how fast it fills up,Now i always back up my music folder to my desktop when ever i add to it and all the pictures and videos i trully enjoy and want to keep also are uploaded to my desktop as well as Imgur you should be uploading pictures and important files often, to ensure that all your important files are safe and secure on your computer and in a cloud.The longer you keep them on the SD card, the more likely it will fail and you will lose everything.The class is the speed that the card will read/write. I've read where some Class 10 cards fail to perform as well as Class 6 cards and i can tell you its true - especially with smart phones. The higher the class, the more expensive the card is. It's just not necessary to get a class 10, and will be slower for many things, at best. Primarily, gallery loading and music player library aggregation. At worst, it will cause lockups.class 4 and 6 is better for small apps/files, and class 10 is great for big files (i.e. movies, HD camera/video).As i said above my class 6 works flawlessly,as opposed to the class 10 from my camera that i first tried out in my Warp.

But by all means, do what you're going to do. I'm just sharing my personal experience and trying to save others from making poor, uninformed buying decisions.Good luck and Enjoy your Day.:)

Kcsuper I would be misleading you and confusing you at the same time if i tried to explain it to you the way i understand them,my experience and knowledge is more in the Video/Photography side of the Cards.What i can tell you is the class 10 card that i used from my Nikon in my Warp would choke up a lot and freeze it,i then took my class 6 from a other camera and it was perfect i tried it out for a few days with no problems and ordered myself this [URL="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/836207-REG/SanDisk_SDSDQY_064G_A11A_64GB_Mobile_Ultra_MicroSDXC.html"]SanDisk 64GB Mobile Ultra MicroSDXC Class 6 Memory Card [/URL]and its been working flawlessly since day one Fast,smooth,quick boot ups and such.Here is a link to give you some not so technical info and the web as you know is loaded with info.Hope that was of some help.Have a Great Day.
