Casual Phones - SanDisk micro SD 2GB mobile memory cards provide a very practical and affordable option for casual phone users. These cards plug directly into the phone and drastically increase the phone's storage capacity very cheaply. Two gigabytes will provide enough storage for around 200 mp3s, or 1,000 photos depending on the size of the files.

The Cell Phone Must-Have For Multimedia Fans

Smart Phones - Smart phones are designed often for business as opposed to multi-media entertainment and so are used to carry and edit PowerPoint presentations, Word documents and memos.

Camera Phones - Camera phones will certainly need a bit more than the average amount of storage, particularly if you're very snap happy. The exact amount of memory you'll need will depend on how many megapixels the camera has, but anything from a SanDisk micro SDHC 16GB to 32GB is recommended to ensure you don't miss the perfect photo-op.

Old Phones - If your phone is past its prime and you want to give it a slight upgrade you should probably opt for a slightly smaller SD card such as a SanDisk SD 1GB card. In many cases older phones don't support SDHC cards and anything higher than 1GB even can prove unstable. At the time many old phones were designed SDHC cards weren't available and larger SD cards were very expensive. It may even be safer to go for a smaller card such as a 512MB or 128MB. The good news is that these are also incredibly inexpensive.
