Samsung 64EVO -vs- Samsung 64PRO. Is there a real difference other than the speed? I have a cheap HTC smartphone. Thoughts?

There is only one difference outside of speed. Samsung uses MLC(PRO) to refer to a dual-level bit, meaning that it can store two values. They also have something called TLC(NON-PRO) which is a triple-level-cell. Each additional cell-level reduces costs by not requiring additional transistors in the build-process. However, it increases there error rate and must be corrected (ECC), by software. This correction obviously slows the memory down causing a loss in speed. Now, for the other difference: Because the bits are bundled together you are left with a memory device that will die faster. However, at about 1,000 rewrites per block, average usage should make these last for many years.

I looked up reviews/comparisons on Cnet and this particular product received a good review. Obviously there is a big price difference I believe. I elected to go with the evo b/c of the reviews and price just trying to be practical ya know? I would definitely make sure your HTC phone is compatible first and foremost. Hope that helps.

Not that I am aware of I only have the EVO so I can't test to see if there are any true differences, sorry

I couldn't see any hardware difference. Externally they are virtually identical. I had a previous version that broke. That's why I was able to physically compare the two. However, the newer model comes with a new software that the older one will not get upgraded to. The new software does the same thing that the old software did with the exception of a new Android mirroring thing. If you have a modern smart phone, such as Samsung Galaxy S3 or newer, you can show in your TV exactly what is in your phone screen. I don't think it would be worth buying a newer version just for this feature but, if you are buying a new device, you should get the newest version to be sure to get the latest software updates.

I have no issues about speed. For $50 more though you can get the 3rd generation that just came out this week. Definitely a tablet that stands apart from any other. I love it!

The card works with any phone... my app is having trouble with Knox on kitkat. Works flawless thru 4.3.x from 2.2 froyo. Also has issues with S-On in HTC devices. This is a perfect card for any use. It really does hit close to 70mbs... I benched one at 63.474 mbs read and 47.110 write! That's awesome. Native was a bit slower but that's due to processor and ram ya know. But it... you'll be pleased as heck and save a ton of money.

The one I got is 1.8... From experience that is not the only factor for device performance. I am still happy with this one way more than other more expensive device that I got later! Did not try to update or upgrade the os yet.

Last I checked this phone is being discontinued, so the higher dollar units are a gauge due to the limited numbers available. Non smart phones are becoming rare. Good Luck! I wore out two of these before moving to the Samsung Rugby Pro. I needed more phone number space and have utilized some of the smart phone utilities. Camera is considerably better etc. etc. etc.....

I pre-ordered this model as opposed to the LG combo. The reason is because the Samsung upscales DVDs to 1080p, while the LG upscales them to only 1080i. While this certainly is not a deal breaker to most, it is to me. Also the LG is $200 more.

I'm running a cooked ROM on my N8 and Belle runs pretty good actually. The browser is pretty weak but most of the other stuff works just fines. I have the OS locked at 60fps and it runs silky smooth. The 808 should be a beast. Only shortcoming could be the market place. Personally I'm not much of an app person. The basics and a few games here and there do me just fine.

Rumor is the official TMO version will have the Qualcomm chip instead of the Samsung chip. Not sure if it's better. I won't get this phone just to wait on TMO to turn on 1900 Mhz if it's not already on. It might take them months, if not years. Would be bad to have this phone, and be stuck on EDGE speed.

I am - I have the PVR-500 with the Samsung chip (bought locally, not from Amazon) - and the video quality is crap, very grainy, some channels totally blotchy. However, I've talked to someone else that did get the card from Amazon, with the Philips chip, and it's fine. So if you can guarantee getting the Philips chip, seems you're alright.

I'm thinking of switching to the optimus elite thanks to the improvement(s) over my current Samsung intercept. It is driving me insane with it's problems. Dropped calls, lack of coverage, lack of RAM, you name it. Even my Kindle app now looks like an Android symbol, the typical pretty pic is gone :(.

600 Bucks? WOW! At that price, it's time to put the 42LD450 in the ring with the Samsung LN 40C630. Personally, I'd have little hesitation landing on the Samsung for the extra 50 bucks. I hear the Samsung is $50 better than our LG, but not $100+ better.

I can assure that the pro version runs faster - they have different chipsets. Take a look at http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1767466/samsung-840-pro-ssd-samsung-840-evo-ssd.html

Smart Evolution Chipset installed in the 7500 and seems to have a faster clear motion rate. Comparisons are readily available on Samsung's website of all of their models. That's how I just answered your question.

I agree with Cristofor. Also, if you are planning on getting the 64gig version, it uses alot of battery. Suppose to last 7hrs but if you use it normally you'll need to charge before the days over. I love the N9 and everything it offers though. I have n8 and wish the n9 had same camera.

Has anyone installed this on a Samsung NP700Z5B-S01UB? I need to know if the install is easy. Many reviews of the crucial M500 with the easy install disk and cable report difficulty. I assume the EVO version is similar to the M500 install kit so I wanted to know if anyone has had issues. I need it to work the first time as I cant go one day without my comp. thanks.

I have been told to stay away from 64 gb cards I had a sandisk 64gb and I returned it, nothing but trouble then I bought a samsung 32 gb and it works great! If you have a mac I'd stick with 32gb cards. Btw I have a go pro hero 4 black and shoot in 4K
