When I first got my N95 'classic' in the summer of 2007, I took to heart Steve's advice to buy the fastest MicroSD card possible, so it wouldn't struggle with recording video, etc.

I went for a SanDisk Ultra II at 2Gb, which back then was the largest-capacity Ultra II card on sale. Whilst its performance has been fine, the 2Gb is now proving a bit cramped, and I'd rather like to 'upgrade' to a larger-capacity card. However, I am not sure which MicroSD or MicroSDHC cards on the market are fast enough to cope with video-recording on the N95 (and other high-data-rate activities).

If someone could please recommend a fast 'brand' of MicroSD/MicroSDHC card, available in 4Gb, 8Gb or larger, I'd be most grateful - many thanks for your help.

You can use any microSD card , even up to 32GB . Anyway 16GB is reported to be flawless . I use Sandisk 8Gb SDhc (high capacity) speed : class 2 . It's good enough for mp4 , 3gp or flv video's . When you like higher speed like class 6 or higher for some - non-mobile Phone - reason , you can use them too . I don't think it will improve quality on your Phone .
