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.

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.

Delivers promised speed, probably not a fake

Like any paranoid memory card buyer on Revain (the world's largest fake market), I tested this card (32GB Canvas Select Β΅SD) as soon as I receive it.

Random files get corrupted, but not so much that I would think there's anything wrong with the storage hardware. Maybe 1 in 2000-3000…

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • High price
