If it is actually the SDXC, I have a 64Gb one in my E4GT right now and it works great.
This exact MicroSD card is going for $99 on Newegg so there's little doubt it's counterfeit. For another $10 I'd rather spring for a 32GB card that comes with a warranty and hassle free return. Also I heard with the 64GB card the media scanner takes forever to process it.

My last one cost about 65-70$ from Amazon (so you can definitely get them cheaper than Newegg,) but I do agree that these are likely counterfeit (or stolen... muhahahaha)
Media scanner: yea, but marking the media scanner to not scan it (.nomedia) is my normal fix for that issue.

Here is an interesting article with some very interesting insight into the world of "fake" microSD card manufacturing in China... written by an American(?) who works at a factory in China. Apparently some "fake" cards are just substandard cards that flash memory makers dump on thesecondary markets...
You can find the article via Google. Search for "On MicroSD Problems bunnie's blog" it should be the first one that comes up
The article was very long and nearly put me to sleep... but still very interesting read.
This is the reply I got from him regarding the query of the card .
Dear ********,
YES, I hope you can wait your product if you receive the product can not be used, I will refund all your money will not be returned to me, Thank you very much!

Still finger crossed.. Dont know whether the card will arrive or not

I have just bought this for my Desire:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/32GB-KINGSTON...AsAccessories_MemoryCards&hash=item230c6c00d1
(scroll down a little cuz the listing is over, but u still can see the description)
It says that it's a brand new 32GB class 6 microSD card by Kingston, but I could not find anything about it on the net. The only 32GB Kingston cards I could find were class 4.. so, can it possibly be a fake? The seller is with 100% positive and is from UK.. What do you guys think? Maybe it's sort of a new product still to be introduced or something?
Chances are is it not a class 6 as Kingston does not list it as a product available from them.
10 Year Warranty ? I 've never heard As far as i know here we only 've 5 years Warranty for SDCards I don't know much about UK One
Well, I'd take it even if it was a class4, I would be disappointed though. I'll of course let you know about how it all went when the card arrives.
More opinions perhaps?

Sounds like a scammer.
Most high classed cards on eBay that are sold cheap usually are scams.
Say like you bought a 16gb card.. It would come as 3gb.

Well, then I just return it, and eBay offers buyers' protection, so I don't think I will lose a lot. Also, that seller really has sold a lot of things, has been on eBay since 2008 and has 99% positive feedback.. Do you really think he could be a scammer?
Also, 30 pounds is not THAT cheap, is it?

That is extremely cheap.
16gb cards go from 70+ USD (52 euros)
I bought one as well - mine is coming from Japan however =)
Ebay item=220707787049 (I'm not allowed to post outside links yet since this is my first post.
True though that Kingston does not seem to have such a product... we'll see when it gets here =) If you get it sooner, could you post a speedtest?
Yeah, I'll do that. Hope we both get lucky with these cards..
Yeah me too. Mine has just been mailed, in about a week I'll report back =)
well.. I bought a similar item, a Kingston 32gb Class 6 SDHC. It was cheap, so I had to try. Got it today, and tried a few speed tests, and only got about 2 mb/second
made a complaint on ebay, and the seller is now offering me to send him the card back, so I can get a refund... I'm more interested in seeing, if this really is a 32gb card.. so I start to copy... this is going to take a while, so I will be back with more results later
So, is the capacity real?
Ok, so I got the card. The markings look cheap and fake, the packaging - too. But the card is indeed 32GB. And, of course, not class 6. Mor like class 4, though at the very beginning the writing speed was less than 4MB/s. I can't make up my mind if I should keep it. If it's really a class 4 card, it's okay. But I'm afraid that it may corrupt my data or eventually go bad.. So, is it safe to call it a class 4 card? What would you guys do, would you keep it? Rememeber, it's price was under 50 bucks, so maybe it's worth the bet?
I attached the benchmark of it.
Ok so, isnt there some benchmark that tests if the full card is undamaged and writable? If it isnt, you still got a cheap 32 gb card... right?

Don't know if this test tests that. Dunno any other tests u can run on Ubuntu either.

I bought that exact same card.
When the card arrived it was slow (around 1-2Mo/s instead of 6+) but after only 3 days of regular use it stopped working.
It wasn't recognised anymore by any reader (tested in PC, Wii, camera and Android phone) and I couldn't even format it.
So I had a close look at it and noticed the product number was SDC4/32GB which is in fact the product number of Kingston's class 4 32GB micro SD. (since they never produced any class 6 32GB micro SD, only class 4 and 10). Also the inscription was a bit different from what I could see on goole image for Kingston microSD.
Finally I sent it back to the seller who gave me back my money.
Here's a pic of the card: http : // hpics.li/09be9f2
Edit: As far as my opinion goes: this card was a fake, although it's just me and I can't really prove it.
Your picture is a proof.
So I just received mine as well, package looks real but no idea if it is... Will test it tonight, no computer nearby...

I always stick with high quality Panaphonic products. Or Sorny.
Yes, it's a well-known Korean manufacturer. The only question is: will you get original product of fake. I don't know how to see the difference when buying online.
Original Memorette cards should give you 11Mb/s write speed. Friend of mine bought this for $99 a time ago. You can find such cards for $45 on eBay but are they original...
Memorette 32GB
The 32GB MemorETTE cards can be purchased online for about $10 per card in quantities of 15.
How many people think that a $10 card with that capacity/Class 10 can actually exist in the year 2011?
I tend to think these are knock-offs.
Yeah at that price, what you are getting is most likely a 2 gb card that has been hacked to read 32gb. When you go to add your media or whatever, everything after 2gb is currupt and not really there since you ran out of space after the actual card size.

Just FYI I bought this card off ebay and I have to say DO NOT BUY!! As it was mentioned some where else. it will write like 2 or so GB then all the rest of the data becomes corrupt.

Hey, I bought this one as well, fake as it can be. I have also ongoing claim with Paypal regarding this. Looking at it afterwards it was too good to be true anyway.
I also had a bad experience with this product. I could put 32 gb worth of info on it but it would never read all of the info. I mostly used it for movies and I would put about 10-15 movies on it ( each movie about 1gb) but I would only be able to watch the first couple of movies once I put the card in my tablet. My computer and tablet would show that it had 32gb on it so I just though it was my device and not the card. I think I am screwed because I bought it 3 months ago. What Ebay seller did you Buy it from. Maybe if we all bought it from the same person then Paypal will allow me to open a case.

I just thought that My G-Tablet wasn't reading the card correctl or the format of the movies wasn't working so I kind of gave up. I should have done a search to see if others were having problems.
I have one of these - 32gb memorette sdhc. Does not work well in my HTC Sensation. pictures start disappearing, video doesn't play back, carded apps begin to fail.
Now here's the odd bit - seems to work fine in Lumix G2 camera. Pics, video all stay just fine. Even when i put this in my phone after - the lumix G2 pics stayed on the chip and could be viewed on the phone fine but anything taken on the andriod phone started to become corrupt after a hour or so.
Can anyone else do this test??
***** I now think this is because the camera does add extra data so its not going over the 2gig which these cards are most likely to be. Got refunded anyway *****

On the ET4G I havent checked the camera information but it does transfer at 30mb/s (read/write fluctuate between 15-20mb on actual transfer and write is just a bit higher).

I have been using the 64gb sdxc card for about a month now. It works great!
When I first installed it my phone did not recognize it. Easy fix....
1.menu
2.Settings
3.Storage
4.Unmount SD card
5.Format SD card
The only minor issue I have had is "media scan" can sometimes take a little long if I have too much media saved on the SD card. I usually just place a period in front of large folders that contain movies and private photos. This will hide the contents of the folder from the "media scan".Then I just access them with ES file explorer. The media scan never takes anymore than a couple seconds and its NOT really an issue.
Also for some strange reason Windows will not recognize the card when plugged in to the computer directly but My Mac will. When transferring files from Windows I just use the USB cord and transfer via mass storage or MTP Application.
BUY IT NOW!!! You will not regret it.
I forward this to a few techy friends, we always share deals. One of them stated that this site is known for selling counterfeit SD cards...any truth to that? I would hate to dish out this type of money for a fake card.

Don't know if it's widespread or isolated incidents.
http://photo.net/digital-camera-forum/00LQNF
The above is from 2007 though, so I don't know if it's relative to today.
After extensive Googling, I have come to this conclusion:
There are hardly any incidents about fake SanDisk cards from Adorama.
There is the one incident above, which may have stuck in peoples minds over the years, but is not indicative of a widespread problem.
Most of all that I read about Adorama is positive, or neutral.
Adorama is in NYC, and is in direct competition with B&H Photo, another reputable Dealer to buy electronics from, so I don't think either wants to blow it, so to speak.
The above is just my opinion, but if Adorama had issues with widespread SanDisk problems, I likely would have found it.
Out of the 2 stores above, I usually shop at B&H Photo, whether in store or online. No particular reason other than I went to B&H Photo years ago, and have continued to go there if the price is right. I've been to Adorama once also, and had no issues. I actually purchased recently a SanDisk 16GB Class 6 card from B&H Photo, but purchased the Samsung 32GB Class 10 card a couple of weeks afterwards from another Dealer.
Adorama advertises a lot on 660 AM WFAN sports radio. Pretty big name. I'd be surprised if they wouldn't work with someone who received a bad or fake card.
Found this video with the card being used HERE

Anytime.
I don't have the card, but from what I've read, I wouldn't hesitate to get it if I was looking for a 64GB card, and Adorama seems like a safe bet
what do you guys think about this Sandisk with a 95MB/s speed:
http://www.adorama.com/IDSIUMS64GB.html
is it overkill? can the S3 even handle this card? i'll be using the camera a lot, if it makes a difference, as it's my only camera. i'll also be moving music in and out frequently.
i've seen it sell for much more on other sites, so i thought that $99 price isn't too bad. i live near the store also, so i could go pick it up today.
do you guys think it's worth it? thanks!

Yah I think that's wrong. Looks like the adapter is rated for 95MB/s.
Even though it says "microSDXC" that's a regular sized SD card in the photo, it looks shopped.
The correct card/option should be SanDisk Ultra 64GB microSDXC Card Class 10 UHS-1 Plus Adapter $59.95
It's a 64GB Class 10. I may just walk over to the store and get it. $99 seems reasonable for it right? I don't think I can wait 2-5 weeks for the Amazon deal.

They charged me wayyy too much for shipping last time I bought from them. It was something like $10 and the envelope with my sd card in it (from USPS) said in the corner the cost was less than $2.
On the plus side, though, the shipped me a class 4 card when the description said class 2.

http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=13239498 **price has been fluctuating** **HAS BEEN GOING IN & OUT OF STOCK** you can check to see if it is carried at your local stores though....?
or just go to their website and it should be on the home page or type in "64gb sandisk"....
Newegg.com also has a bunch of these Class 10 cards (different vendors) starting at around the same price range, some with free shipping as well. I linked the $25-50US range here.
Nevermind, I am an idiot.

LOL Your fine man! All you were doing was try to help.... We all wanna know where the good deals are!! Those cards would definitely be a tad harder to put in the slot though....
Thanks man, yeah I was just trying to help out. I would have felt like an ass if some poor noob would have bought one though.
"It wouldn't fit so I cut it down to size and squished it with a vice but It still won't work, now all I get is bootloops" LOL

Ah it was only last week or so where the Ultra MicroSD Sandisk 64gb was on sale for 42 bucks. I snagged it then, but watch out for it on Slickdeals, I'm sure it'll come back...

Yes, the prices of sd cards and ssd's are on a downward spiral so you will always pay more when you want the good (latest) tech right now (like me) but oh well, you can't always win....

Price just went up to $49.99. This is the ultra one btw.
Good prices - too bad they are not fully compatible with the Note 2, which I believe is limited to 32gb.

I had read specs saying 32 - plus I have a 64. It is accessible through Root Explorer and with the camera. However, TWRP will not mount it and apps like Media Hub and most others will not access it. I have been manually moving large files around,
When I put my 16 gb in, everything works OK. Suggestions would be appreciated.
UPDATE - Problem was that it was formatted exFat. Formatting in the device or with Windows won't let you do FAT32, but freeware app did. It now can be accessed by TWRP (having it do a backup to it) and I was able to select it with Media Hub.

I signed up for an email alert on radio shack's website when they get back in stock. Then I was sent a $10 off coupon on a $40.00 purchase or more. So sign up for the email alert for back in stock!!!!!! If they get them in I will be paying $39.99 with the coupon applied.

sadly i did not receive that coupon...probably because its back in stock today
As of 11-11-12, the price is back down to $39.99, and it's out of stock again (before I was able to buy)....lol
The out of stock is "online"...and there are no B&M stores within 50 miles of me that have them. You may be luckier, just search.
Unfortunately I can't use it for anything except media files. Rooted my Note 2 and still can't move my apps to SD. Only 1.2gb left free internally for apps now. Sucks. Really wishing I would have held or for something bigger than 16gb.
