I am always suspicious when buying off amazon third party sellers because its practically like buying off ebay (which in my experience have always been fake) play.com on the other hand can be trusted. I've never heard of Komputerbay either, but you say you've bought from that seller and it's been good? thanks

Amazon & Play.com sell very dirt cheap cards of all types under their own brand names. I would be a bit sceptical about high class ratings on something so cheap. I use a 16 gig Sandisk micro SD it's always been reliable for me that brand.

Is that a class 4? I agree, ages ago when I was naïve I bought a 4gb PRO duo of ebay and it only worked up to about 2gb before not allowing any more data I didn't even question if it was fake, before it fell apart...
. But yeah sandisk is a make I trust, think I'll just go for 32gb one off ebay.

I'd never heard of komputerbay before I bought that card either. At that time I decided to take the risk on it anyway. I've never taken it for a proper speed test but I can vouch that hasn't broken down yet, given me bad read/writes or shown any signs that it's too slow for me needs.
I'l do a few small file, medium file and large file size transfers to and from and give you back the results. Be back in a short while.

OK, I've done a quick test of my 32GB (supposedly class6) card, which I bought from the aforementioned Amazon seller's link.
I tested with a three different file sets:
Small files - a web site I'm working on,
1400 files and most if not all of them
less than 1MB, total
462MB.
Medium files - long album (Beatles number 1s album),
27 files between
4MB-10MB each, total
181MB.
Large file - this week's FXP X10 ROM,
1 file, total
91MB
I took the card out of the phone and put it in one of these thumb size card readers to eliminate the phone as a source of slow progress. I also did each file set individually read and write.
Unfortunately I didn't have a high-tech programme to tell me all the results so I just copied in and out with Windows 7, read the details on what it thinks the speed is and timed it with my analogue wrist watch.
In case you are thinking it might effect the results, my PC is a core i7 920, 6GB RAM and I copied into the card from my secondary HDD but copied from the card to my primary SSD.
The Juice
Small file transfer (1400 files / 0-1MB / 462MB):
Write speed: 3.5 MB/s to 4.5MB/s
Write time: ~2 mins
Read speed: 11MB/s to 13MB/s
Read time: ~40s
Medium file transfer (27 files / 4-10MB / 181MB):
Write speed: 6MB/s to 9MB/s
Write time: ~30s
Read speed: 13MB/s to 15MB/s
Read time: ~15s
Large file transfer (1 file / 91MB / 91MB):
Write speed: 8MB/s to 10MB/s
Write time: less than 10s
Read speed: peaked 28MB/s
Read time: less than 5s
As you can see, the results show a consistent 10MB/s+ read speed and the write speed is also fast if the file size is above a certain threshold. It seems to be worthy of it's class 6 rating. All files transferred have to be confirmed to be correct after it's sending, so the extra time in pushing lots of small files is typical and expected.
