Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of SanDisk 8GB Memory Stick Pro Duo
Customer Review: W810i Memory
Summary: 5 Stars
Put it in my and my wife's SE W810i phones. The phone does not report an 8GB chip (only up to 4GB) but you can still load more than 4GB, the phone reads the files and they work! So now I have quadrupled the memory capacity thereby allowing me to greatly increase the games, themes, ringtones, and esp. the music files I have on the phone!
The phone does boot up noticeably slower (on my phone --having 7GB of files on it); the wife's phone does not have as much stored on the card and it boots a little quicker, but still slower than when I had 2GB cards in there. The phone still seems to operate well in the menus and when selecting songs, etc. so its not bogged down throughout, only slower at the initial startup.
Customer Review: Slow card
Summary: 3 Stars
This card works but it is slow. For some applications it may not really matter, for playing games on PSP systems from the memory stick it does... Little Big Planet was very glitchy during movies and stuttered constantly. Also the file transfers to the card take way too long. (Over 10-15 minutes for 1.4 gb file transfer.) Sandisk cards are cheaper, but like most of the time, you get what you pay for. It would be worth it if you can afford a few dollars more to look for a Sony stick. I have two 4gb Sony sticks that I also use with a PSP 1000 system and they work great. I needed more storage space but didn't realize the cheaper product would be so much slower. Also it only gives you 6.5gb or so when formatted.Customer Review: Perfect memory for PSP.
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought this memory stick to go with a PSP I had given my wife for Christmas. So far it is working perfectly. I did a lot of price comparison shopping for this particular type of mem and wound up purchasing it from an independent Amazon store. This is the exact same type of mem stick that Sony produces for most of it's products from game systems to cameras but for half the price that Sony charges. Certainly prices on flash memory are in constant fluctuation, although lately they have been falling. This by far was the best price I found on this particular product. I will have to wait and see how the integrity is but so far it works like a charm.Customer Review: Good purchase for my Sony products
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm using this pro duo for my PSP 3000 and it is very nice to have the extra storage. I have 1gb reserved for game saves, and couple gb saved for PS one classics and full PSP games. Before I was using a 2gb pro duo and it just wasn't enough. I had a couple SD cards from SanDisk and they are all great quality with good transfer speeds. This is a great product and 8gb of space is pretty good for $25. I also have a Cybershot at home so this'll come in handy in the future. All in all a good purchase for me; I recommend it if you have a PSP and plan on downloading lots of content, or if you take lots of pictures with your Sony camera.Customer Review: Works Perfectly
Summary: 5 Stars
Memory Stick is a Sony thing. When you buy a non-Sony memory stick product your fear is compatibility. Well, I just bought this 8G memory stick for use in my new Sony Webbie HD Camcorder. It works perfectly.
I choose an 8G card expecting the Webbie HD to chew up space like crazy, but, I have found that the MP4 compression and lower bit rate of the Webbie is friendly to memory stick capacity. In fact, for my purposes, I could have used a 2 or 4G stick and been happy.
I also like the eco-friendly packaging for this product. Mostly cardboard with only the smallest plastic covering. Nice!
