Review on πŸ“· Kingston Canvas Select 32GB MicroSDHC Class 10 Memory Card UHS-I 80MB/s R Flash Storage with Adapter - SDCS/32GB by John Talcott

Revainrating 1 out of 5

6 weeks, no longer working, lengthy warranty process

I've had this card for about 6 weeks, 2 weeks past the Revain return period, and this unit has stopped working. I bought it because it's the largest available (and recommended) dash cam card I've ever bought. The DVR began to complain about the impossibility of recording on the SD card, formatting through the DVR did not work. I tried formatting on my surface but it won't format on this device either. Now I'm waiting 30 minutes on the phone with Kingston to get an RMA because they don't have an online RMA service. This music is very annoying and in 2019 I don't understand why any tech company would make someone wait on the phone for so long when online RMA systems are fast and convenient. Unless they want to discourage people from taking advantage of the "lifetime warranty". The card I'm buying to replace this is from a company that has a genuine warranty process that doesn't require me to spend all morning trying to do a simple RMA on a broken new unit.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Hard to tell
