Kingston or SanDisk?

[Makar]

Which of these on shop temp is best/fastest? Does it matter? Are they the same? Is there a brand that has more stable cards than the other? Which do you like?

I've always been using SanDisk, but really I have no idea which is better. My mom has a Kingston and I don't really notice anything different....

I use both and like both. I have had issues with some jank Kingston's in the past from foreign shops, though, so maybe I'd give the slight edge to Sandisk.

I prefer Kingston since I've found it to be reliable ever since I started using it. If you're gonna purchase kingston sd cards from Shoptemp take note that the cards they sell are class 2.

That was an interesting blog post.

I think I'll be staying with SanDisk then.... Unless somebody else has something bad to say about them too,

I have several products of both brands and I like them very much.
They are very similar, so I voted Both on the poll.
Really, either way is good.

Does it really matter?

I usually use Kingston but if I had a SanDisk I would use it too.

Their pretty much aint any difference, but since i have a Kingston ill say Kingston.

Samsung or SanDisk for me

I've known that Kingston were badgers for years - having received a Kingston (which was in reality a re-badged Sandisk) CF card in the dim & distant past. Kingston RAM can come from any of the manufacturers Hynix, Hyundai, Samsung, etc. and thus I see no point in paying them to paint a new label on and popping it in shiny packaging - shiny packaging doesn't make it work better.

Kingston, because I onyl have Kinsgtons and thats where I live

the Kingston 4 and 8GB they are selling right now are class 4

so might want those over the class 2 sandisks.
though be quick because they may not be able to keep those class 4's, next batch might be class 2 back again.

I use neither. I've been using A-data which has been extremely reliable for me

They all do the same thing. I vote kingston.

 

[Edgedancer]

I must say that both are extremely reputable brands but I must say that I go with Kingston simply because I have had a couple of Sandisk cards fail on me. Not sure why but it doesn' really matter now.

 

[WarazX]

Yea, thats why i voted as well.

 

[Assassination]

i say both!

 

[WarazX]

Kingston is just winning the poll though.

There are better choices out there for microSDs, but in the case of Kingston Vs Sandisk, I would say Kingston.

What do you think the Better choices are?
