        Tcool, 12 May 2014There's no such thing as 280 MB/s read and 250 MB/s write. Bye...I posted the link but the comment went into moderation. So sorry. You just search UHS II in Google and go to the SanDisk link. You'll get it.

              Tcool, 12 May 2014I am talking of write speed, not read speed. See the difference between write and read spee... moreI know the difference pretty well. Lets take am sd card with 10 MB/s write speed. That's 80 mbps right. Now for a 4k video by s5, the framerate is 47-48 mbps. So you can see, the card is quite capable of recording 4k. The class 3 will come useful for high quality or RAW 4k but the s5 isn't capable of RAW.

              The language you are using is quite harsh. I'm not a dumb and I am not writing anything wrong. I'm giving respect to you and expect the same. Don't bash anyone like a fanboy. If you find anything wrong, you can discuss that politely.

              Have a nice day

                    See the difference between write and read speed!

                    Read speed when you open a file, write speed when you save a file. Thereby recording a 4K video should depends on write speed, not read speed. Smart kid!

                        Complete your details and be consistent!

                          Tcool, 11 May 2014Wrong again! UHS class 1 is only for large-size HD videos, not 4K. (UHS Speed Class1 denot... moreActually you were quite wrong there. See, there's the UHS version and there's class version within that.

                          So the UHS version we're talking about is UHS I which are the high standard class 10 cards delivering speeds upto 70 MB/s. Among that, there are classes. So there are 3 types of UHS I cards. Namely UHS I class 1, UHS I class 2 and UHS I class 3. So I was correct.

                          Now there was nothing wrong with my comment as I simply used uhs I. About that yes, you need the uhs i class 3 card. That's just for safety though. A 4k video has a bitrate of 47-48 mbps that's around 6MB/s. So the recommended is uhs I class 3 but class 2 or even 1 may be used( that can cause heating of course).

                          The recent standard is uhs II which will be coming to micro sd in coming months and it carries upto 280 MB/s read speed in uhs II class 3.

                            I've got no problems with my s4 and it works great. And my UHS I card supports 70 MB/S speeds.

                            The greater than 10 MB/s is for class 10 cards and uhs I cards are those with much larger speeds. Please research before you post BS here. Uhs I are high quality class 10 cards. Till now there is only one uhs II card and that too is just announced, not released.

                              Had an iPhone for 5 years, never broke a phone/screen through all its drops. Went out on a limb and finally got a S5, had it a week and the screen has cracked. Haven't even dropped it. Had it in my back pocket and have sat in car with it there. Gorilla glass my ass. VERY disappointed and regretting my decision.

                                    Your morality to always wait some time before buying a phone just launched is a never ending waiting because there will always be new and better phone to come.
