Find a Retailer

There are 3 distributors for sandisk in singapore. Ingram micro, kaira and vector magnetics. Vector magnetics has the longest history and label their sandisk with sticker. The other two do not handle RMA directly with consumers and has to RMA through the retailers. All 3 only honor warranty for product serial number distributed by them.

How to find serial number when buying? only on card right?

many ppl will just say "hah so troublesome still must test real or fake.." Somemore need to use pc and good card reader to test.. still will advice friends or ppl to buy from reputable shops for samsung microsd or flash memory card.

well i believe there are some are pararrel import in which forgo warranty but yet at a cheaper price......

i always believed if the item is real and good...... i am ok..... chances are outlive the warranty( but for memory card is 5 to 10 years.... some even boast 30 to lifetime then no comments )

Why not just purchase 2x 32GB MicroSD cards?

Much cheaper than a 64gb this way. Swapping shouldn't be a hassle as the thing is light and convenient to bring around :)

i think for professional usage like in DSLR possible but for daily usage like in tablet or in handphone, you wont wanna carry 1 extra Samsung Evo microsd and put another Samsung Pro inside your handphone/tablet and swap usage

Got alot one lo. Search online can see already. Not only Samsung microSD got fake. Sandisk also have lo. So many online sales channel and also all sites like ebay will have seller selling fake microSD cards. The most safe is buy from local reputable shops. :s22:

wah, if xiaomi come up with memory cards, likely will price it below samsung evo and pro series

if xiaomi do come out memory cards, i think the price range will be less than $20 for a 64gb card. can hoot a few and i'm using their powerbanks. so far so good.
