Then maybe don't post in an Amazon deal thread?
Thus far, we have people that are not commenting on the merits of the deal, but rather they read somewhere once that they might get a counterfeit from Amazon and therefore, they want us to go to this other website to buy it from.
Meanwhile, I did purchase this card from Amazon this Black Friday (the 1 TB version) and have told people how to aid in detecting counterfeit cards, as well as, verifying the product that they bought actually works to its full capacity, and I get a response, "I don't want to learn new things".
Boggles my mind.
I got a few normal 128GB microSD free from Microcenter, in fact I go get another one today.
Completely concur. High specs turn into a p******* contest if you're not actually using them.
I suppose the only benefit of buying highly spec'ed stuff now and if you use the memory until it dies, is that you want something that has a fast read speed otherwise you'll be waiting for eternity transferring data off of the card down the road.
I have actually interacted with the Viofo support team pre-purchase to inquire what the schtick was about Sandisk versus Samsung microSD cards... and they replied back with a non-answer answer that, (Paraphrasing) "we found that Sandisk works better for our equipment." No expansion upon a technical answer and much more broken English.
I did require the replacement of one of the rear camera cables that I also bought (they use a proprietary connection that looks like Mini-USB but is not mini-USB), and their initial question was, "Are you using Sandisk or Samsung SD card?" Again, very broken English. I was using a Samsung endurance card, and I tried with a 32 GB Sandisk card that allegedly would work with their device... same results. So, they sent me another cable, and everything worked.
(So, the issue with the rear camera cable was that I ordered like the 6 m cable and they sent the 8 m cable... ok, so I got a slightly longer and more expensive one free... except the 8m cable was so long that it was not powering up my rear camera and was causing the front unit to act funny. The included rear camera cable in the box worked fine. After troubleshooting with Viofo support, they wanted to send me another 8m cable since the 6m was OOS. Well, I told them I was going to wait for the 6 m cable so that I wouldnt have to go through this again, and then suddenly, they found the 6 m cable. The whole time the website showed both cables being in stock).
You do realize you can reply to people without being condescending?
Now yes, counterfeit chips have snuck into the Amazon supply chain, but I have yet to read too many reports here on SD where our members actually received them. I've been here a bit of time, but I don't monitor everything thread that closely.
Feel free to consider my posts abrasive, but put me up against a poster that plainly stated that they don't want to have to learn how to use new tools, and that I'm not buying from a reputable vendor and I run a risk of receiving a counterfeit chip? Yeah, that's one step too far. At that point, posters are just thread crapping b/c they have a personal animus or vendetta against Amazon. That's fine and their right to have it, but don't clog up threads with your politics. (Understand, I'm like poster emeritus from the Podium)

Gotcha... Naw, I'm not terribly wound up.
I fly Thursday, internationally with family, and hence the reason I'm revisiting and buying more memory cards. Trying to be helpful here since there are a lot of counterfeit memory cards across the board (not just limited to Amazon).
And I have no issue ordering cards from Amazon as I know how to spend a few minutes checking for counterfeits.
Another unsolicited opinion from an internet stranger. YMMV
I will say the SanDisk grey line in the bottom right, I've 100% corrupted those cards in my first dash cam because they couldn't handle that level of wear on the writing. I fully admit I was using it in an application it was not designed for.
Viofo recommending this card is weird to me, because even directly from Western Digital's spec page, it says:
https://www.westerndigi
Tested and certified to work seamlessly with Chromebooks
Up to 120MB/s transfer speeds let you move photos and files fast
Class 10 for Full HD video playback – watch right from the card
Water-proof, temperature proof, X-ray proof, magnet proof, shock proof
Nowhere does it say it's designed for continuous write.
Whereas look at Samsung's Pro Endurance page.
https://semiconductor.s
Extreme endurance for monitoring devices
Take the worry out of always-on recording. Engineered to deliver longest lasting performance, the Samsung PRO Endurance is a perfect fit for CCTV, dash cams, and body cams. Capture your crucial moments in high-resolution, even in harsh conditions.
It's plain and apparent.
I'm glad to hear that you're using the Samsung Pro Endurance microsd card with your Viofo without issue because I ignored their "not recommended" list and bought it for my Viofo A139 Pro dash cam.
And I have no issue ordering cards from Amazon as I know how to spend a few minutes checking for counterfeits.

And it's paired with:
Samsung PRO Endurance 128GB 100MB/s (U1) MicroSDXC Memory Card with Adapter (MB-MJ128GA/AM)
This was what was available during June 2020:

Though, I ordered a replacement the current model 256 GB Samsung PRO endurance as it's on sale for Cyber Monday at $20.
