Hey guys, I need help buying a micro sd dor my switch. I see alot on amazon but from what I hear theres a chance I can get a fake card and I rather not go through the hassle. Im looking for a 128 gb. If someone could point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

If buying from Amazon, make sure it is "sold and shipped by amazon" to assure it is 100% legit.
Another option is to buy from B&H as they have decent prices and are legit as well.

Thanks guys, is there a big difference between Samsung and SanDisk?

It would probably be better to go to an actual store if possible, like Walmart or something like that. If not, do make sure the card is coming directly from Amazon, not a 3rd-party seller, SanDisk is good like mentioned above. Haven’t had any samsung cards, but SanDisk works really well for me.

best is probably the Sandisk A1 min 64GB... A1 is the best for app performance\internal storage and also means more life cycles reading\writing than non A1.

they are like this:

Dont buy the extreme because its lot more expensive and the Switch wont really take advantages from its extra speed as its probably topping up the max speed already on the Ultra.
