Just download the validation software from Samsung to test it. You don't need to return it.

It would be nice if other sites price matched. I'm not willing to risk a fake from Amazon. Yes, I could always return the card, if it's fake, but I shouldn't have to go through the hassle.

Source? Where did you read that from that the manufacture even confirms it? That's terrible...
Go onto the Lenovo forums. Lenovo has explained the issue. I have this issue in my legion Go but not in my deck. I stop using SD card for games on the legion. I bought two of these cards from Amazon. one for the legion and one for the deck. Cards work fine in deck with games played from it. The Legion Go has a data flow issue with SD cards for gaming. Lenovo does not recommend the SD card as a gaming drive.
they recommend using the internal SSD for games.

There were some negative comments about the quality on the previous post and just want to offe my .02. I had/have this in my samsung S20 phone. One day i was taking a video and saving to card and the app froze up and when i restarted the card became read only mode. I kept getting an error trying to save to the card and i can't delete anything on the card. No idea how to fix but if you have other options this may not be worth the hassle.
Researched it. It's because the card will turn to read only mode when it's dying to protect itself from destroying the data.

Is there any way to format the card again after it does read only mode? Does Samsung offer suggestions? Is there anything on reddit in the forums about this? Maybe the speed of video capture was too slow, so it froze. Maybe install the Samsung Magician and it can "fix" the problem. I did buy 4 of these cards a few days ago and Magician scanned it and it says they are all genuine.
There are lots of 1 star reviews in Amazon User reviews ...the last 2 months having problems.

p.s. Should we play GAMES using this card? In android? or game systems?

Can we make 4k recordings in certain devices? Which ones corrupt the card, and which devices have no problems with this card?

Did anyone have problems filling the card with mp3's, movies, tv shows, security cam, recording streaming shows, etc.

If you have LINK that discusses this, with suggestions, post it for us to look at.

If the card itself has flipped read-only, there is nothing you can do. That happens when the card's controller determines a fault exists, or the drive has reached end-of-life and can no longer be counted on to store data reliably. It flips read-only to try and protect any existing data and allow for as much recovery as possible. This is a desirable failure mode, rather than continuing to work unreliably, until catastrophic failure occurs. The downside would be if it is a false positive and there isn't anything actually wrong. Either way, you may be able to get the card replaced under warranty.
