[ch0cb0mb]

hi! i bought a N95 afew weeks ago and i went to a shop looking for a 4gb microsd card.
The phone guy said that they dont make any 4gb microsd. but i knew for a fact that they do make it.
He looked it up and noticed they do make it lol.
then he said the N95 wasnt compatible to use the 4gb and said it will blow up my phone.

I would like to know if a memory card can blow up phones? i neva heard of this happen b4 to a phone.....

This guy is lying to you,i know of a few people with 4gb cards and their handsets haven't blown up!
I would get one myself but i'm gonna wait for the 8gb card,or the 8gb N95....what ever comes first!

I have a 4gb microsd card in my n95 for over a week and it didn't blow. Somewere in this forum it is said that the n95 will be able to use up to 32gb cards.

I would not worry about that. Several owners are using the 4gb card without problems. I went from a 1 gb to a 2gb and then a 4gb, without any problems.

It is, even, working faster.

Get yourself a class 4 card, like the one below (which I'll be purchasing next pay day).

4GB micro sd card Integral Micro-SDHC

It has a faster read/write speed than the Sandisk class 2 cards

ROFL blow up, as if :p

He probably said that so he could sell you a 1GB or 2GB card lolz

Is a Class 4 device actually any faster in an N95, though?

My Class 2 device is very fast when fastened directly to my PC using a crad reader but is much, much slower when using it via the phone. I suspect the phone is the limiting factor and a Class 4 will be no faster than a Class 2 in the phone.

That said, how fast does it need to be in the phone? Even writing video footage is only about 0.5MB/s.

In fairness I've no idea in a "real world scenario", but on paper a 4MB/s card should be twice as fast to write data to as a 2MB/S card.

However, the speed gain in writing to the phone would be unimportant to me. I will be loading my films/audio from my pc to the card via a USB reader, and that is where I'd be looking to save the time personally.
