"Episode 2" Fake Micro SD 16GB, 32GB, 64GB Cards from China

This is the biggest mistake I did one time.

So here's what I bought:

"Retail Capacity 16GB/32GB/64GB Micro SD TF Flash Memory Card Mobile Series class 10 SDHC with adapter Free HongKong post"

"Read 21M 7M per second per second write "

"A memory card by 100% quality test"

Too good to be true? yes it is.

These Chinese suppliers are selling 8 to 64GB SD cards (with Samsung logo on it), but true size is 3,7 GB! How?

Well, these cards are firmware modded so when you write data to this card, all your data will  be lost and corrupted which goes to the bland side of true 3,7 GB

H2testw is one of the best ways to test your SD card real size and is it genuine. 

In the picture H2testw program write SD card full of test files and now it's verifying the files. At the picture, program is showing that 3,7 GB of the files are in good condition so true size of this card is that 3,7 GB.

Other over 60 GB is lost data or "corrupted" After that 1 hour 42 minutes program show's that all data is lost except that real 3,7 GB capacity. 

And how about the read/write speed. Well true write speed was Class 4 and NOT class 10. Read speed was about 10-12 MB/s

As you can see, I have A FEW pieces of these. Maybe I get my money back, but I wish I could see the guy who manufactures these's to make him suffer.

Bottomline:

Class 4 not class 10

Write speed 5.057 MB/s top and not 7 MB/s

Read speed was 10.4 - 12 MB/s not as promised 21 MB/s

Real capacity was 3,7 GB not 16, 32 or 64 GB 

DO NOT BUY ANY STORAGE PRODUCTS FROM CHINA. This is too good to be true! 

Chinese always cheat! there it good products too but they always cheat at product specifications to make selling rate higher.

"Episode 1" Phone charger from China

So I decided to buy "Samsung" travel adapter wall charger from China.

Heres what item specification says:

Compatible brand: Samsung (yes true and other phones too)
Type: travel
Power Source: A.C. Source (true)
Socket type: For EU (That's what it was, so it's true)

Now here's promised input and output power:
Input is typical 100-240v,50/60Hz (this was true, no problem)
Output was promised to be 5v(true) and 0,7A (normal samsung travel adapter gives 0,5A output amps.

Product serial number is copied from original Samsung Travel adapter product which is: ETA0U10EBE

Here's in first pic what it looks like in product description and second picture wheres the product and it's circuit board.

Now look at these photos. At the left we have fake Samsung Travel adapter and as you can see it's charging with half power than original Samsung Travel Adapter which you can see at the right picture.

Fake gives 0.02 Amps / under 2,2 Watts           Real gives: 0.04 Amps / 5,3 Watts

Note that I don't have right equipment to measure voltage, amps and so on. But this shows the truth.

Promised charging value was 200mA higher than original 500mA charging rate and what you really get was half of the real charging value. Original charger is not the fastest due it's low charging value 500mA so think about half of that 500mA. It tooks many hours to charge your Samsung S3, S4.. with this under 250mA fake charger.

What you can learn about this is that when you see charger that says in description that it's value is 1A, then it might be 0,5A or not even that. Well low price = garbage. Remember that Chinese always cheat!
