Do I need a fast, 8GB MicroSD card? Perhaps, more importantly - at $4.95 shipped, does it matter? I'm sure you can find a use for it later ;)

We're happy to present this one-off deal for Samsung 8GB EVO MicroSD in retail packaging with MicroSD to SD adapter included.

Terms and Conditions
* Sale lasts strictly while stocks last or until Friday (3/10) Midday - but probably the former.
* Limit of 10 per customer.

Please Note: We anticipate the possibility that there will be heavy traffic to our website for the duration of this promotion - if our website is slow, please bear with us. Please also note that there may be a one business day delay in dispatching your order due to the volume of orders.

UPDATE 12:22 - Lots of requests for other capacities as anticipated - but we want to make sure we don't overstretch ourselves and we can dispatch the orders we do get in a timely manner, so please give us a bit of time to assess how things are going, maybe give us until around 1:30-2pm so we can see what the number of dispatches is like. Then we can make a call then. Worst comes to worst? We'll probably be around next week :P

Update 1:20PM - added some items, currently locking horns with my manager about 32GB/64GB MicroSD cards, apparently some issues due to low Australian Dollar, I'll keep you guys informed.

Update 1:50PM - Added some Lexar MicroSDs, I know, not the best. Still locking horns about something faster. I'll get back to you as soon as I can, sorry about the wait :(

Update 3/10 10AM - For those who are wondering about stock, we managed to secure more stocks of the 8GB EVO yesterday - that's why we are not out of stock. The volume of orders may mean a slight delay in processing and dispatching your orders though - so please bear with us if your order does not get dispatched this side of the week. Sorry I couldn't do much for the other capacities :( You have until midday! Happy shopping! :)

ADDED ITEMS
Sandisk 32GB Ultra SD Card for $20.95
Blackwidow Ultimate 2014 for $129 + shipping.
Lexar 32GB Class 10 MicroSD for $18.95 - retail pack, MicroSD to SD adapter included, limited stock available. Please note this is not the edition with the USB3.0 Card reader. (Out of Stock :( )
Lexar 64GB Class 10 MicroSD for $38.95 - retail pack, MicroSD to SD adapter included, limited stock available. Please note this is not the edition with the USB3.0 Card reader.

          This is the usual price for Samsung Evo SD card these days I guess, I don't see this is a deal, there are plenty of ebay Australia sellers who selling complete package for this price as you mentioned.

          +1 for shopping-express

        • ozhunter68 on 02/10/2014 - 14:16

          @Boogi:
          Agree with the +1 for SE because they also do great specials on these Evo cards and deals in general with good service. But for the 8GB Evo's they still go for $8 to $10+ mark most places and even on ebay. As they are phasing the 8GB out, you can now get the 16GB for around same price as low as $9.90 as linked above.

    Can someone tell me whats special or different about "evo" micro sd cards or compare them to say a class 10 Samsung micro sd card.

    • Store RepRoland Chen @ PCByte on 02/10/2014 - 13:34

      The EVO cards are faster I believe. The old style class 10s are no longer being produced. That's my understanding, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

    • Alzori on 02/10/2014 - 18:36

      Class 10 just means minimum 10MB/s read/write, it's not that significant. Most of the time if a card claims class 10 it will only just meet those requirements. Problem is there's no class xx higher than 10, so if something is faster its rated 10 anyway. A different type of rating is the U rating, this one is similar but you multiply by 10 I think to get the minimum speed. Similar deal, basically everything with a U rating is U1 (the next one up is U3) so it again means 10MB/s read/write.

      This card specifically (EVO cards) Samsung claim as 48MB/s, though it turns out that's only read. I think write is about 17MB/s(?), and for micro SD it's common that write speeds are much slower.

      • Store RepRoland Chen @ PCByte on 02/10/2014 - 20:18

        Generally speaking, the UHS-I/II cards tend to transfer at faster speeds. I have yet to see a UHS-I card that couldn't at least read at 45/50MB/s but I might be wrong.

        Most flash memory differ in read and write. Some Sandisk Models (especially the older ones) have similar read and write performance but, as Alzori noted, most of the Samsung EVOs do read faster than they write.

    • Store RepRoland Chen @ PCByte on 02/10/2014 - 13:36

      Hello aragornelessar, AFAIK, the adapters are just straight circuitry - there's no chip or anything like that inside. They either work or they do not, speed is not affected.

    Why does everyone need 32gb for a dash-cam? Is there any reason this would be unsuitable for a 1080p dash-cam @ 30/60fps?

    I don't want to record a whole trip, just the last five min before a potential accident right? Regardless, I should be able to get at least an hour of video @ 30fps no? Or am I missing something important?

    • eug on 02/10/2014 - 14:29
      +2

      8GB is all you need if you just need the most recent clips. But if you want to keep a larger archive just in case you want to dispute a red light camera or fixed speed ticket or something like that, you probably want a larger card.

    • whats up skip on 02/10/2014 - 14:36
      +1

      I advise getting a 1080p 60fps camera, at least if it will do that in day light. Motion blur at the lower fps is a major problem.

      Re storage. Not all cameras make it easy to lock a particular clip. Also there will be many times you want evidence when an accident didn't occur.

      If you are wanting to dispute a red light camera or similar you are going to need to save the files for at least three weeks to allow for processing time and the issuing of the infringement notice.

      I just can see any point in buying 8GB units now. The price difference to 16GB is so small and you are more likely to get a more useful life out of it.

      • eug on 02/10/2014 - 14:40
        +2

        One thing to keep in mind, at 60fps the shutter minimum speed will increase, so while you can possibly get a sharper image, it'll be less sensitive in low light.

  • XxDkoYxX on 02/10/2014 - 14:31

    Cheers for the deal mate! I ordered 2 8gbs. I was gonna order one 16gb but they just sold out :(. Awesome site and I'll be checking it out next time I need anything for my computer build! Thanks!
