Thanks for all the replies. After posting, i noticed that I could get a 6GB SanDisk Class 4 MicroSD for £35 from here: http://www.memoryking.com/mal[....]King/SDSDQ%2D6144%2DE11M/87875
...Which is an absolute bargain!



Specs say this is class 2.

"Speed performance rating: Class 2 (based on SD 2.00 Specification)"

Hi Guys,

Got my SanDisk 6GB microSD card yesterday and it works a treat with my SE K850i. I ended up getting it for £33 from Kikatek. Ordered it on Monday and it arrived on Wednesday.

ericemel, it's definitely a Class 4 Micro SDHC card. Please see the full specifications on SanDisk's site...
http://www.sandisk.com/Produc[....]144-SanDisk_microSDHC_6GB.aspx

As for speed it's quite fast for such physically small card. Took around 30mins to copy 2GB of mp3's on to it using the USB reader that came with it. Seems quite zippy in my K850i. I would say that it isn't any slower than the m2 that came with my K850i. If that's of any help...

Cheers,

Norm

I bought 6GB microSD as well but it doesn't work with my k850i. I tried few things like format, update phone software and nothing. It always say " Memory card not inserted". Memory works fine connected to computer. Any advises??

Regards,

The Micro SD 8gb should work. I'm planning on getting an 8gb Micro SD from Play.com for £54.99.

AFAIK maximum capacity for ordinary SD cards is 4GB. i dunno K850 is compatible with SDHC or not.

MicroSDs beyond 4GB actually are MicroSDHC

I add new topic (is locked now) as no one confirm (except one user) that it works. In my phone it doesn't so it is 50% chance that it work. Please add you comment if you tried 8gb microSD with K850i or suggestion why it doesn't.

Thank you
