128GB Micro SD Memory Card real or fake. - Galaxy S 4 Accessories

I found out about two weeks ago there was a 128 gb micro sd out, and it was going for $200, but if you pre ordered it with Amazon you only paid $119.00, but you had to wait 4-6 weeks for it to be sent to you. I didn't have the extra funds in my account to get this.
So i said to myself i'll wait, and get it when i have to extra cash to spend. Now that i have it, Amazon is no longer selling it at that price.
here's why on the bottom of of the amazon page.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-list...d=&coliid=&condition=new&me=&qid=&seller=&sr=
But i found this on Newegg and i wonder if it's, because i can't find this product on the web.
But if it is, it's only $69.95 with extras....Please reply and help me make a choice.

Here are my rules with buying flash:
1) "never buy flash sd or micro sd from online retailer. Period!
2) only buy flash sd or micro sd from a store with an excellent return policy such as bestbuy or futureshop.
Yes you'll pay premium dollar but the reality is there are fake memory cards everywhere and the retalers don't even know they are selling it and if they don't even know they are selling it, good luck proving it!
Also 69 is way too good to be true! you need at least clash 10 on android and and heck Sandisk is the only memory card manufacturer that has proven their use on android, if it not Sandisk, forget about it!
I hate fake memory cards, worst thing about them is how much time you invest in trying to fix them! You spend the first week in denial that you could possibly been sold a fake memory card and spend all this time formatting and re-formatting them with different applications and operating systems, try different roms, different kernel combinations, posting help because your rom is acting buggy, lose data? and all the while reason for all your woes has been due to using a fake memory card.

Very probably fake, i was buying mine twp months ago and the one with the largest storage was 64 gb. More than enough for 99% of uses.

That wouldn't even work for our phone. You going to use it on the Find 7 or something?

I got mine from Amazon for the $119 price a couple of weeks ago. I formatted it to Fat32 with 8k clusters...no issues at all. Card is detected at proper size and is detected in custom recovery fine also.

Works just fine, as has been shown numerous times. At the moment the specsheet for the S4 was made there were no 128GB cards.
So I assume you just looked at the specs to get that (wrong) assumption?

128GB SD cards will work with our phones with a SD to MicroSD adapter. i use one now.
in fact it will go up to 256GB
NOTE must be formatted to Fat32 to best compatability, also depending on your kernel.

Sandisk are making some (soon) though?

The 128GB card works on the S4, even though I have mine in my Note 3.

I believe he was talking about the Samsung from Newegg. This is definitely fake. As said before, anything above 32GB is SDXC, not SDHC like in the picture. Also Samsung has not yet releases 128GB. Also, look at the picture. "12" is of a different font /size than "8". The reviews for the seller "Redtagonline" has 2 stars out of 5. Just preorder from Amazon. Make sure you format it as either Fat32, or eXFat if your Kernel supports exFat

Have you actually copied files/data to it to fill it to its advertised capacity?

Man, Amazon still advertising @ $119 but been out of stock forever.

I have the Sandisk 128gb from Amazon in my S4, it works great without problem.
The micro sd to SD card adapter that comes with the micro SD did not work with either PC or Mac, so I had to plug my card into my card reader instead, which worked fine.

32gb MicroSDHC for 16.99?

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!
posted from a EPIC4G.
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.

I'm a little iffy about ordering these really low price cards from vendors off Amazon or Ebay, just because of the rumors of them sometimes not being legit. Not saying they're all bad just cautious about certain things. Anyway, just bought the one in the link from best buy which I know is completely worth it and legit. Sandisk ultra 32gb class 6.
Are you using the 64GB card in your sensation?

Be VERY carefull buying flash memory off the internet... almost all of it is counterfeit 2GB cards sold as 32GB cards. This means devices will see them as 32GB cards, but if you save more than 2GB to it, it will start overwriting previously saved files. I've encountered several of these fake cards. Before you use flash memory from the internet, test it with this program. It takes a while, but it's worth testing it now rather than losing important files.

ive bought all my micro sd's from amazon and have never encountered this

just figured out 64gb card will work for this phone.

Yesterday my 32 gigger crapped out on me. Froze my phone, too. Didn't have another one. So I put in a 64 sandisk class 10 and holy cow the phone recognizes it. Got 4 of the 64 gig lying around. I knew these guys were good for something.
Can you address all 64 GB? It doesn't surprise me that the phone can read/write the card, but I am thinking it might behave like putting a "too big" drive into a x86 machine, be it when CHS became overwhelmed, or the whatever-it-was x-TB limit that was recently hit by older machines.

Just ordered a 64gb SansDisk Ultra for another phone. Should be here in a few days. I'll slap it into the 4g to see if it recognizes all of it.
EDIT: Formatted fat32 primary and phone is able to use all the the 59gb.
that's still pretty amazing.

These 2 items are the same product, same card. The only difference is one comes in retail packaging, and one tries to save Earth just a bit by packaging in Amazon's Frustration Free Packaging (AFFP).
Comes with SD adapter (so you can plug it into a regular SD card slot) + Lifetime warranty (10 years in Germany and Canada (because their governments do not allow companies to carry "Lifetime" warranties due to misleading the customer as Lifetime is *product* lifetime, not your lifetime, that is, when the company stops selling it, they no longer have to honor the warranty))

Files won't save, is it the 128gb generic card or not-rooted?

I'm wondering what I should do with my 128gb card.
I got one off ebay that says it will work in phones (just MicroSD 128gb, no brand on anything, the package even just had a foldover piece of plastic on the front. I'm guessing, since the seller is in the US, he just bought a generic lot and gambled he could sell them fast. That makes me want to push it around the block as hard as I can, as rapidly as I can so I can return it if need be. I bet he won't be on ebay in a few weeks, but since he is now, ebay can wield a pretty fierce club on sellers who sell non-working junk. The seller says it is Fat32 formatted.
Anyway I put it in my wifi 12.2 and it shows up as 125gb free, but I can't put anything on it through the device (PC over USB 3.0 can see the card but won't transfer files or make a folder; I can't create a folder via Zarchiver or ES File Explorer), but some programs have written to it (firefox, google, flipboard... but can't save to it firefox and quickpic can't save there). I'm NOT rooted (so no fix).
I'm trying to figure out if it is the generic nature of the card, or if it is just that I don't have root yet and have not applied the fix. If it were a 64gb card I would not be too worried (I would think it is the kitkat issue), but it is the 128gb card so I don't know. An OP has said that they had problems with generic 64gb cards being fake (I admit I have not done the research on fake micro sd cards), so this makes me worry a bit.
I just want to make sure that the card works so I don't have to return it. I'll try out a new 32gb card I have tonight and I'll try it in the adapter just with my PC to see if I can read from it on the 12.2 tonight, then I guess I'll root (Yea LMT!!!).
I'm open to any suggestions you might have for me.
Sounds like a fake card to me.
Sent from my SM-P900 using Tapatalk
I'm running H2testw on the card right now and should know in about three hours if it is fake or not. Registering as 125gb free when the real deal registers 119gb free is not seeming like its going to work out as real, but you never know.
Fake card, the 32gb card I have works just fine. Looks like the real sandisk cards are all sold out on amazon.

Thanks!!! I checked April 1 and it was priced $239 or something, checked back and amazon now has it for $119 again (out of stock preorder).
I contacted the seller and said that it was tested defective and appeared to be counterfeit and I wanted a refund and not to pay shipping. He refunded my purchase within 24 hours and said I didn't need to ship it back. Said something about being new and had to check his stock, I have not posted anything yet as far as feedback. The package said "starage" instead of storage, big tipoff in retrospect.
AFIK sandisk is the only 128gb micro card maker right now so I don't think there are any knock offs yet.
I used the test program and it took like 8 hours to finish, but it was bad.
Hope that was helpful to others, just 128gb are not on ebay yet IMHO, happy to be wrong, but I don't think so at the time of posting.

What is your 128gb micro sd card choice?

Hello guys, I guess we don't have this discussion here yet. So one of the reasons that m9 kicks ass is having an sd card slot. But which brand is the best, most reliable and fast? What is your 128gb choice?
I honestly was gonna go for sandisk but I read some worrying reviews on amazon as they sent some people fake sandisk microsd cards and they sucked. That's another thing, where can we buy those online, the safest place?

I'm very surprised to hear that SanDisk would send out fakes and risk their reputation. This must be Amazon or a 3rd party doing this.
Samsung have always been great at making memory chips so I see no reason why their memory cards wouldn't be top standard.

This is one I bought. It has the highest write speed of any of the cards I could find online and I can confirm that it works flawlessly. I've been shooting 4K video on it and it has the proper read/write speeds to manage that efficiently. I checked the reviews prior to purchase and they're extremely positive; among the highest of all of the choices on amazon believe it or not.
I use 64gb extreme pro from SanDisk.

Yeah, I got it because of the high speed and to make the best use of the faster SD card reader on the M9.

I'm very surprised to hear that SanDisk would send out fakes and risk their reputation. This must be Amazon or a 3rd party doing this.
Samsung have always been great at making memory chips so I see no reason why their memory cards wouldn't be top standard.

Are you sure Amazon is the seller not the shipper? I mean I could sell things there but Amazon does the shipping.

Thank you for the answer, I have a question, since I am coming from very limited memory 16gb htc one s, for the last 2 years I suffered so much about storage on my phone and I swore that I would get the biggest storage available on my next phone, but I am not planning to record 4k videos or store hd movies. tons of photos, I just want to be able to update my apps, download apps. take photos every once in a while without seeing a low storage message
so my question is would 64 gb micro sd card be enough for me definetely or should I just go for 128 gb?
Thank you in advance!

One review stated seller was GTDTech.
You can choose other seller who sells cheaper than Amazon. I don't think Amazon sells the fake ones. Other sellers who use Amazon prime shipping probably do this. Not all of them but yeah, it happens.

Nah, I think that 64GB is probably more than enough to cover you for quite a while. The only reason I personally got the 128 is because 64 was cutting it close for me to be able to store my 36GB of music, my 10GB of photos, nandroid backups, and have room to shoot some 4K. If you're not doing any of this, 64 is a lot of storage and it'll take you ages to fill it. Save yourself $80 and grab one of the 64 cards on a sale via amazon. I've seen Samsung, PNY, and Sandisk all get down under $30 for the 64gb cards. All class 10.

Hey guys,
Just ordered my 128GB Ultra Micro SD MicroSDXC 48MB/s Class 10 UHS-I and waiting to receive it
I always use http://www.memorybits.co.uk for memory cards - they are the cheapest I have found (been using them for years) considering the products are always genuine and reliable.
If you're not from the UK, they have a list of partner sites on the left-hand side - essentially the same site for other countries; I suppose they have warehouses in different countries that they ship from.
Personally, I would never buy memory from eBay or Amazon again - I have fallen for cheap cards in the past. There are just too many fakes around and it's not worth the risk. Even if you get the storage capacity you expect, the chances of a "too-good-to-be-true" kind of deal on a high capacity card lasting more than a day before corrupting all your data are pretty slim
Also, standard delivery is free, they accept PayPal and they have branched out over the years and do a fair bit more than just memory cards
I promise I'm not affiliated in anyway Although I should be on commission :good:
128GB Samsung Evo+ the best and fastest micro sd you can get with transferrates up to 80MB/s. It is also waterproof, shatterproof and safe against radioactivity.
