Hi guys one of my friends told me that one should always buy a memory card having less capacity than than the total memory phone supports! Otherwise the phone hangs and/or the full memory doesnt get utilised. Is it true? Also which brand MicroSD card will be preferable? Thanks.

yeah for most phones above 1gb support go for half the size allowed i've got a 2gb card for my 5300 but now the music player hangs when trying to shift genres or albums no probs for themes or games

btw 1gb card transcend =800-900;2gb=1500
