You have to care a lot about the speed of the mem card on the N95 as you will slow down the whole phone. Any app you install, any movie you film or photo you take. Slow card = slow phone. There is a long review floating around the web somewhere.

You need the SanDisk Ultra Range.

We cannot mention competitors I'm afraid.

They are readily available over the net.....google is your friend.

Buying from a high street store....fairly unlikely, though one forum member (another forum) mentioned he got one from a "well known mobile phone shop".

Didn't think ocuk sold phone accessories though ?

hell no. the phone cant read and write to the card quick enough to make use of the ultra range. its the same with most phones/mp3 players/whatever.

telling people they need the ultra range is just wrong.

Oh well shame on me for buying a 2gb sandisk ultra card:(...i feel like killing myself for being sucked into all this ultra hype.
 
Whoa! Watch out for that bandwagon, its gonna break with so many people jumping on it without clue :p If only everything that was shouted louder by more voices was true!

I am telling you this right now as fact. If you get a slower mem card it will take longer to store the images and can actually stop video recording from working correctly, any apps stored on it will slow down the phone. I am not saying the 4GB version is too slow (in fact its fine), I am referring to the many other generic brand cards out there. Its a not a N95 specific issue its a KNOWN issue in regards to mobile phones for years. Search the interwebs... its full of people complaining about such things.

The 4GB is perfectly fast enough, just avoid other manufacturers such as Integral, Transcend, Kingston etc...
 
I work for a major sandisk distributor and sell 10s of thousands of their cards to major high street mobile shops so I'm pretty closely tied in with them and I've not heard anything about speed issues affecting handsets.

It'd fall on me like a ton of bricks if the cards were causing issues in store.

So no, its not a bandwagon. Most of the time as I understand it handsets aren't capable of writing at anything like the max speed of the card. The ultra cards speed up transfer to and from pc as far as I understand it. Either way there's a good reason you don't see ultra cards for sale on the high street as a rule (and its not the price as you'd be suprised how tiny the cost price difference is).
