When bought a Samsung microSD card online, I thought it was fake because it says it's made in Philippines. I was expecting it to be made in Korea or Vietnam. But this video clarified the doubt that I have with my SD card.
*_By far,_* this is the most comprehensive and understandable presentation on this subject matter. Many thanks! However, generally, the details are _ipso facto._ Which meant that you have TO BUY the item first BEFORE you get to know the said FACTS indicating that the same is a FAKE. In many instances, it would be a HASSLE or IMPRACTICABLE to RETURN the said item. The BEST MOVE is to TEST the said item IN FRONT of the SELLER. And RETURN the FAKE PRODUCT on HIS FACE!
Samsung also makes them in Korea. I have both Samsung microSD cards from Korean and the Philippines. Do be very careful as there are some really excellently made fakes where the package is almost identical to genuine ones. I did manage to get a 128GB Samsung on eBay for $30 and it was real. I did get 3 fakes before the I managed to snag a real one. I had one seller cancel my order when I started asking questions and wanted real photos of the actual package.
Apparently i order a memory card myself and it looks really sketchy and fake ,thats for sure.. but the memory card works, the speeds are OK.. and the it aint 8gb.. i have written 15+gb to this fake memory card
mostly they both actually work, the fake ones do have a max speed of 10 MB/s normally which is 1/10th of the original cards. Also the space may be half of what it actually advertises (ofc sometimes less), however they fool the cards into thinking that they have the full space they are selling you and thats why most of the data becomes corrupt after you surpass the real storage limit. That's why the scam works so well because they work and most people don't think its a fake or they blame samsung instead if something breaks in the long run.
Hey man, this is the best explanation that I have ever seen, thank you for your efforts.

So glad that you have brought this to the public attention. Keep it up. Thanks
Thanks, apparently you can even get fakes from Amazon. I wounder what would be a good testing software program for the PC?
use h2testw, it writes up the whole sd card to check how much space it really has.

You don't ask dumb question. You know damn right.

Another Jinx Main no it doesn't even read
All fake microSD cards are actually 8GB cards but the micro controller inside is reprogrammed to say something else.
