Just wondering if anyone here has any feedback/experience with purchasing generic GB sd micro cards for your smartphone or camera?
Is there poorer quality in the functionality of these cards, or do the generic cards take photos, videos, produce as quality music feedback, as a name brand card?
I have used some generic cards while in the Philippines, I have found that if they work once plugged in, then they work and do the same thing the top of the line ones do but and it is a big but, why buy the cheap ones while in the US, as places such as Staples put the name brand ones on sale all the time.
Pay more attention to the "Class" rating. That describes the speed of data flow. For a phone, you'll probably want one that's a Class-10 (the best/fastest), so that you don't get skips as you view video files.
The generic cheap chips I've seen often are ones that are Class-4, or -6, and are slower ones being dumped.
