Looks like a class4, can't really read. Labeled as sanDisk and ships from China.
I have no affiliation with the seller.

that looks too good to be true- Im tempted!
When something seems to be too good to be true it usually is.
Memory cards aren't something you wanna be cheap about. Specially since cheaper knock off cards tend to have memory failure randomly and early in their lives.
It would suck to have lots of important pictures and data on the card and it to stop working!

Those are fake. They will format as 32gb if you are lucky, but the instant you add more than 16gb or 8gb or whatever it actually is, the data will be "corrupted" or some other nonsense, since its not actually 32gb.
Do NOT get memory cards on ebay for all the reasons mentioned above. I have personal experience with some of these.

Unfortunately I consider all memory cards on ebay knockoffs. They Suck!! Suck bad!!! I consider myself a pretty enthusiastic photographer and purchase memory cards for my camera quite often and in the period of a year I bought 3 of them from ebay just to test and one got corrupted within a month, another just died as in couldn't be recognized at all, the third one worked and then one day i went to format it and it said format successfull only that I could never write to it again. It would always give me a write error, or the message on the camera would show up to change memory cards.
They are horrible horrible cards.
Compared to the ones I buy in newegg, even the cheaper brand ones from transcend worked flawlessly. I think once with transcend I push the card in really fast, and it gave me the change memory card error but the card still works once i took it out and put it back in carefully.
Sorry man, some things ebay is good for and other things its just not so please avoid.
it was removed off of ebay.
FWIW I've actually had good luck with the Microcenter branded micro sd's. I've used them in phones and cameras for the last couple of years and haven't been let down yet. I even have one in my Windows 7 lappy for that readyboost feature.

Yea I didnt think they did but i haven't been in there in a while. That is good news about it working though I think ill ask santa for one for christmas.
I'm in the Columbus store at least once a week to grab stuff for work and to go next door to Gallo's for lunch and they still don't have anything larger than 16. It took then a while before they carried the 16 so hopefully they will get a 32 in soon.

Hi guys,
I have recently purchased 32gb kingston's class 4 micro sdhc card and encountered a problem with it. Basically the problem is that when I put more than 1.8gb of music on the card everything above that just doesnt get recognised. It is shown in the music player but when you click to play it says "file format is not supported". Another example is if I have 1.8gb of music and try to put a video on the card it says that "format is not supported" aswel. The strangest thing is that it plays music for few seconds then it crashes. At first I thought that it could be a fake memory card but I used h2testw to check the capacity of the memory card and it worked without any issues.
Some screenshots:

Did you let h2testw completely finish? Because it will write all 32GB of data but reading the data is when it finds the problem.

I actually havent I did it up to 12gb gunna let it do it now for whole 32gb. I still think that it is the phone issue. Still ill let it run through out and post the results
You have to let it finish, it'll try and write 32GB since the card is programmed to show 32GB. But really all it's doing is overwriting existing data (if it's fake). So when h2testw starts to read the data, that is when it'll find if your card is real. It'll tell you how much your card can really hold.
If bought from eBay there is a high possibility that it is a fake, unfortunately.
Thanks yvrRome I did let it finnish and it turns out it is fake... it only wrote 1.8gb and the rest was corrupted, this means its fake. This actually good news because this means that its not my phones fault. And Nivki I did bought this from ebay and to make it worse its second time ive been scammed on ebay purchasing 32gb micro sd in a row lesson for me purchase things like these from retail shops
It could also be just a bad card. I would still recommend buying from a retail shop, though.
Newegg now has the Kingston class 4 32gb MicroSD cards for just over $100.
Ebay + Kingston + 32GB + Honk Konk + China
1/10 its a fake .
jje
only buy from reputable store sources
never buy SD cards from ebay 99.99999999999999999999% they are fake

I bought from ebay 16gb card,had a similar problem.all files above 1gb were non supported format. I bought a sd reader and connected it to a pc,using usb... same problem,I.e. card is defected.

I received a card today that was bought from eBay, i figured if i bought a brand named card(Kingston) that the chance of it being counterfeit was lower. I began to sync my samsung Vibrant with Double Twist and only about 20% of the songs were transferred.
I tried re-formatting the memory card in Windows 7 and the capacity is somehow reset to only 2GB...THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I've seen this happen. After that i try inserting the card into my phone and it' shows space unavailable... 2 PCs won't read it either.
Something this unreliable has to be fake. I recommend running a test with H2testw 1.4 to tell you if it's genuine or not.
Also, Kingston can actually verify your card for you. Maybe useful if you want to ask the sellers for info on the back of the sd card package first before buying! Good Luck
****KINGSTON MEMORY VERIFIER****
BTW- are 32gb cards just really unreliable should I go with 16GB ? I have a vibrant running ginger clone.
thanks for the link http://www.kingston.com/asia/verifyflash/
very handy for future purchases.... but it'll eventually be cracked by the counterfeiters people in time and generate fake "real" keys that passes the test

i think u own a fake card
Most of the memory cards bought from eBay are fake, unfortunately. I've came across a lot of victims as I work in a Kingston service centre.
I feel sorry for TS
Ebay = need to reasearch seller a little
I have bought quite a few memory cards and usb flash drives from ebay and I have never had an issue however, I do a little 'reasearch' before I click on buy.
I always look at ALL of the seller's negative and neutral feedback. This gives you a really good idea if they are selling legitimate ones. Also look at how much crap they sell, if they have only sold a few items sold I would go some where else.
I usually single out a few 'sellers' that sell a LOT of brand name memory cards. I also list items from the most expensive first to the cheapest, usually all the dodgy stuff ends up way back at the end. Being from australia I also filter it out so that i only see items that are goign to be shipped from Australia (double check feedback to see if theres any indication items are shipped from china/hong kong)
Just like kingston, I beleive sandisk also have something on their website to confirm if you bought a legitimate card.
i bought A DATA 32GB Class 4 from Amazon USA and it's good , but i recommend class 10
Hy guys, I dont have much experience in micro sdhc. Do you think this is genuine and a good buy?
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/8GB-Sandisk-C...AsAccessories_MemoryCards&hash=item3a6086a419
Also this one
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/8GB-Micro-SD-...aphy_MemoryCardReaders_RL&hash=item255e2be5e4
Do you have any advise, what would you recommend? Thank you
For a change they both look good. Both have good feedback and you have a UK address for both if anything goes wrong.
i don't think anyone will bother wasting time faking 8 GB cards, they are so small
the only time you want to be sure is when you buy 32 GB
even 16 GB are very common now
I heard good things about SanDisk but cant find for samsung. The problem is that on webpage of San Disk I cant find a card that looks like the one hes selling so a questiond is it genuine.
Both sellers are 'eBay Top-rated seller', my opinion is that the card is genuine.
Just find you local computer store and buy the SD card from them
I don't recommend buying memory cards from eBay unless from reputable seller; too many scams
looks like a genuine and the seller has a good rating
I do think this is genuine

Not sure about the Samsung one as I've never actually seen them in a retail outlet, but the SanDisk one looks like the real deal, it's exactly the same as my own, and the packaging is the same as what's currently in the shops here. I'd recommend it, even though it's a class 4 I got read speeds of 16 and write speeds of 11 with mine.
Here's a link to the site I usually buy from, probably not as cheap as UK one's but occasionaly they do some crazy special offers,

I got A-DATA 16GB class 10 for about 30 euro from a local shop, but I suppose you can find them where you live. It delivers exactly as promised (something like 11 MB/s write speed), so it's a good quality for it's money (a rare case for the Chinese products). The best thing about faster cards is that you don't get the pauses in video recording like with the crappy stock Samsung card. Actually it's so slow that with a SD adapter, it can't even be used in my DSLR. The 24 frames the camera buffer stores take more than a minute or two to be written on the card and that's a pain in the ...
Anyway, you can get a class 6 card from a better manufacturer (like SanDisk) and it can perform better than the A-DATA class 10, but with SD cards (like with batteries) ebay is not recommended. Go to a local shop and try the card if you can.

Here is the HTC recommended shop [site] Expansys Memory MircoSD, make sure you check the in stock only box if you do not what to wait for new stock, they do seem to get new stock very quickly though.
I also recommend them as a paying customer.

You've had better luck than me, i wouldn't touch expansys with a very large barge pole, on a more helpfull note I've just bought one of these and it works very well with no problems.
i just got a 32gb from amazon, been using a 16GB from the HD2 til now.

Android origin announced the 3 memory configuration prices @ $399, $429, $449 (16, 32, 64 GB)

Assuming this is accurate... it just keeps getting better
32gb is enough since it has micro sd support
Sent from my A0001
But for 20 bucks more you get double the memory. Add a leather back and your done for $500 or maybe even less!
Would be cool and mean most would likely buy the 64Gb for $450, but I recall a few of the media at the launch asking and Moto reps said $50 bumps for the other two storage sizes. That would mean $450 for the 32Gb and $500 for the 64GB. Seems no way Moto would price that low and would eat into margins like a "sumbich' and make no pricing sense from a consumer elasticity standpoint. They could charge more, sell the same volume and make a lot more money, since the margins are not enough to sway most consumers at those prices. If a market is that price sensitive, they would be buying the lower tier models anyway.
I think Motorola needed to do something drastic. Since there sales haven't been that great the last few years. Considering htc and samsung sales aren't as good as they thought. This wouldn't be the bs storage upgrades that samsung and apple have.

Same thoughts here as well. I haven't even maxed out my 16GB GS3 here, :good:.
Tom's Hardware has the info given from Motorola in a Play and Pure/Style article released today and shows as the Moto reps said on some of the media launch videos:
16GB = $400
32GB = $450
64GB = $500
That sounds more believable.
Still great prices. Moto just needs to make enough of them on time.
So with SD card support is there really a need to go much higher? My music is stored on card anyway
I think the 16GB version is fine since I already have a 64 GB micro SD card. That's the beauty of it all.

If you have a lot of apps the storage is nice. Newer 3d games take up 1.5gb of space. My Note 4 32gb is as full as I can get it and still update apps, but I have over 15gb more games I can't install since no space.
I worry about the sd card going bad. Happens all the time. I prefer more storage in the device so it get's the same warranty.

Stop buying cheap SD cards as thats most likely the reason why your SD cards keep failing. I only buy SD cards from genuine retailers online or instore. Too many fakes about.
