Hi,

I have a Droid X (yes it old), It is supposed to record 720p at 24FPS but I'm only being able to record at 13FPS which is very choppy and laggy. You guys think it may because of the Memory Card?

I have a 16GB Class 6 Samsung Memory Card which I bought like 6 months ago. This is its model number : MB-MSAGB/IN.

Thanks in Advance!!

That memory card has a terribly slow write speed. the size of a 720p video per second is quite large and the memory card just cant write that many frames that quickly. Yes it's definitely the memory card.

But my father uses a 8GB Class 6 Sandisk Memory Card which he uses in his Lumia 520, and he is able to record 720p just fine. Why is it like that?

If my memory card cannot keep up then which class memory card do you recommend.

A few other problems may be that the overall phone is now old and it just simply can't keep up. Or, maybe there's something in the settings that needs to be adjusted.
