   • We suggest that you should chose Micro SD card from big brand, such as Samsung or Toshiba. We do not suggest Sandisk.
   • There are many fake cards in the current market. Every card has its limited times of writing and deleting. So if there is something wrong with the card after a long time use, it is quite normal. You just need to change to another new qualified card.
