SanDisk 16GB microSDHC Memory Card Class 4 with adapter SDSDQB-016G-B35 (Accessory)

Customer Review

Wishing to increase the memory of my smartphone, I preferred this card to its capacity of 16 GB and its price / quality ratio. I especially need (much ...) of space for storing files (sounds, movies, images, etc.) and the photos I take with my phone. Nothing extraordinary in terms of performance needed, so I thought any map easily would do. In addition, SanDisk is a brand recognized for memory cards, I've chosen with confidence. Mal took me and let me explain:

THIS CARD IS NOT SAFE !!!

- Regularly, about 1 times / 4 photos I took gave corrupted files when I sauvegardais my pictures on the memory card, not the phone directly. As a result, when I took a photo, I thought everything was fine because the preview verification was ok. However, viewing the files in my gallery, I was shocked to find some pictures with strange colors, pixels or displaced whole rectangles, or worse, my phone was unable to open the file.
I find myself taking 4 times the same photos to hope to have a correct ...

- For music files (mostly mp3): some songs are jerky, others are simply cut in the middle of the song. I can still hear the rest of the file by making fast forward just after the time when the file "jump"!

I note that none of this is due to my phone because it is compatible microSDHC up to 32GB and I am served for months with another microSD card perfectly similar purposes without any problems.
Moreover, I have no problems with the backed up files directly on my phone and much corrupted files on my card SanDisk 16GB were not on my previous card.
So I have to systematically check the integrity of files copied to my new SanDisk card to be sure they will be read correctly. This still happens for a dozen songs, but it's quickly tedious when there are several albums ...

The use of this card is therefore particularly distressing. Despite its capacity and prices (which seems more understandable for me post his performance more than random), I'm really disappointed.
I hope just have bought a defective product because otherwise, I would not recommend it at all this card!
