The fake memory card is there and sometimes it's hard to recognize.
I was burned recently, but I managed to record how I knew the card was fake.
Follow the step by step instructions to determine if your Samsung micro SD card is fake or not.
I also filmed a video to match this note and you can watch and experience it directly.
If you like this note, consider looking at my TechWizTime YouTube channel for a good source for a real Samsung micro SD card, check out my Samsung micro SD card Amazon list and let's get started!
Check out the SD card adapter before opening the Samsung Micro SD card packaging.
Pay close attention to the printing of words.
Check if there is a printing error as this is a quality control issue and there is no way to avoid the real Samsung micro SD card adapter.
If its text doesn't have a very clear edge either, then you might see a fake one.
In general, the top of each Samsung micro SD memory card I purchased is perforated.
If you don't, then this could be another sign that the memory card is fake.
This is not a complete positive but it does tend to be more of a fake Samsung micro SD card.
Watch carefully, the edge of the fake Samsung micro SD card is black.
On all official Samsung micro SD cards, the plastic edge is white.
When they make fake micro SD cards, the cost of making the edges White is too high, so this is another giveaway.
The black edge on the Samsung micro SD card always means it's fake.
You can also check the text clarity of the micro SD card surface.
If it's not sharp or a bit off, you can guarantee it won't go through Samsung's quality control.
If you look at the bottom right corner of the package, you will notice a model code.
Something like MBMG32EA/EU or MB-MF32DA/AM or MB-
MS32D/CNThe/EU means the product will be sold in Europe and Australia.
This product is sold in the United States.
This product is sold in China.
If you do not live in China and have received a Samsung micro SD card whose model code ends in CN, then you may be a victim of a fake micro SD card.
The lower left corner of the package is a statement of the manufacturing location of the product.
The official Samsung micro SD card is generally made in the Philippines, and will be launched one after another: the fake memory card I received is made in Korea and there is no adapter warranty line.
Download the H2TestW software to check if the capacity of the micro SD card is correct.
The 32 gb micro SD card I got after testing 16 gb failed.
The counter is able to modify the memory card of the report, so it may be displayed as 32 GB on the computer, but once tested with H2TestW, the result clearly shows that it is only 16 GB.
When you buy a cheap memory card, stop and think about it. maybe there is a reason why it is so cheap.
