One thing is to buy a memory card and
another thing is to buy an original one.
Memory card sellers are not helping matters
as they use their sweet market voice to
deceive unsuspecting customers who who
are novice when it comes to knowing an
original memory card.
Imagine yourself buying a memory card and
using it for only one day and it started
giving you headache and you start
experiencing memory card corrupted.
Imagine buying a 32gb or 64gb SD card and
in short time it starts misbehaving. Some
memory card will be written 16gb but when
you insert it on your phone, you will only
see 2gb. That is crazy.
However, you can use card expander to
increase your 2gb SD card to 8gb or even
higher.
There are a lot of fake SD cards out there in
market and many people fall victims to this.
Buying SD cards with one problem or the
other. One of the most annoying experience
is memory cards that worked perfectly when
tested in the store but once you get back
home, it starts giving one problem or the
other. But relax, I will show you how to
detect a fake SD with some tools like SD
Insight and H2testw. But before then, see the
first steps you will take while buying an SD
card
THE BEST WAY TO BUY SD CARD
*Ask for warranty
This will make the seller to be cautious
because he knows he will loose if anything
go wrong with the sd card within the
warranty period. Some sellers will not even
sell the product to you again immediately
you demand for warranty. They will stylishly
chase you away because they know that their
product is not original.
*Test the SD card at the shop
This is if you are not buying it online. It is
important you test your new SD card right in
front of the seller. Try to receive a file into
the sd card, check the memory space and
others.
However, if you are buying from online
stores like Jumia and Konga, you can place
your order and pay when the SD card gets to
you fine...
