Review on πŸ“· Samsung 32GB PRO Micro SDHC Card (MB-MG32EA/AM) - Class 10 with Adapter, up to 90MB/s by Elijah Balzarini

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wrong model - the model stated on the box has been covered with stickers with the wrong ID!

This listing is for model number MB-MG32EA/AM. However, the product I received was model number MB-MG32DA/AM but with stickers - yes, stickers - over the relevant information on the box. So the actual packaging correctly identifies this card (as MB-MG32DA/AM), but the stickers added to the packaging obscure the real information and identify it as MB-MG32EA/AM. The 32D is listed as a U1 card on the Samsung website, not a U3 card. Although the information can be hidden on the packaging, the real model printed in small print on the card identifies it as 32D. While there really isn't much difference in performance between the two models, it is unethical to advertise/sell one product but ship another product and this sales tactic worries me greatly. I mean it should be simple - send the model listed. The card works well, which is why I didn't give a star. I tested it with two different programs and you can see the results in the attached images. The bottom line is that Samsung's SD cards are pretty poorly managed, and I wouldn't recommend rolling the dice if you want to get what you think you're paying for.

Pros
  • Reliable, durable: waterproof, X-ray, temperature and magnet resistant
Cons
  • Available in black only
