Size Name:32GB
There are far too many fakes about and its essential you test your card on receipt, some fakes will pass some of the test programmes, so test with ChkFlsh, Crystal Disk Mark & especially H2testW. H2testW tests the full capacity of the card, so will catch any using aliasing to fake larger than real capacity. A card with full capacity but high error rate/slow write speed indicates a 'ghost run' fake.
I`ve added images to the product gallery to assist in visually identifying genuine & fake cards.
Good results:
A 32GB card should have a formatted capacity of around 30GB, format in FAT/FAT32 only (NTFS shortens life of flash media & wont improve performance)
A class 4 card must have a write speed of 4MB/s minimum (large files) the first result in Crystal Disk Mark should indicate that.
Read speeds should be over 12MB/s.

I bought this for my Orange San Francisco smart phone, having read several reports of problems with different makes of micro-SD card. This worked exactly as designed and has given no problems in the month it has been installed.

Cautious to find the fastest, biggest microSD for reasonable money, this Class 4 Kingston chip is brilliant value for money and works superbly in my HTC Desire. Adapter was sent for the larger format SD also which was a bonus. And still not seen anything for better value since!

This 16GB SDHC Card arrived promptly, was well packaged and as far as I can tell is the genuine article.
However, once formatted (using the HTC Desire), after a few hours or day or so (varies), the phone rejects it with "SD Card Unexpectedly Removed".
I don't get this with the supplied 4GB Samsung Card, but I do with this card (both my cards are class 4, type SDHC and appear physically the same size).
I don't know if it is the HTC/Android 2.3 phone software, or that the new Kingston card is subtly different in size to the Samsung one or if it is HTC software issue handling the different capacity.
The HTC Desire is meant to be able to handle up to 32GB Micro SDHC cards, so this should have worked fine.
All I can say is there is an issue somewhere.
I am going to revert to my original card, should there be any software updates issued by HTC I will retest the card and update this review. Right now I will give this 3/5.
If anyone has the same issue or hears of a solution, please feel free to add a comment.

I am not rating the seller, only this product. You really do need to test the product soon after buying it. I kept this product unopened as it was to form part of a present (an advent vega tablet which sold out before I could get one), so it was 3 months before I then opened the package and copied a few photos to it. Then kept it to one side until I copied some more this weekend. when I wanted to see what was on the card, there was nothing and in fact it said it needed formatting, which, after several times trying, I decided I could replace the photos anyway and eventually tried to do. The window popped up which said it was 8GB and not 32GB and then said it could not be formatted either. In properties it had 0 bytes used 0bytes free so it was a ~Dud~ and probably a fake. So - check it by copying some files across and see if it works, and check capacity is what it says it is!

Does what it says it does which is always good. I can be a tiny bit more helpful to you if you are deciding whether or not to buy this product by saying I bought this for my Samsung i5500 android phone and it works perfectly with it.

I purchased this product in favour of the SanDisk microSDHC 16GB Card purely because it happened to go up in price as I was about to purchase it. I do not regret my decision.
As you know, Kingston is a very reputable brand which has been in the memory business for many years and as such know exactly what they're doing.
My package arrived in two days using Royal Mail 2nd Class shipping and was surprised by the improvements in packaging. It came in a small, cardboard envelope with no bulky shrinkwrap. Good riddance to it, I say.
The card itself is in a small protective case, along with a microSD -> SD adapter, an unexpected but appreciated addition. (See customer images)
It was immediately recognised and formatted by my BlackBerry Curve 8520 with a usable capacity of 14.8GB. (See customer images)
It took 27m 59s to copy my 10.8GB worth of media to the card. This averages out at around 6.43MB/s write speed, which is amazing considering the card itself is smaller than my thumbnail.
I am very impressed with this card and indeed the seller. Would buy again and recommend to all!

Great
Value for money, supplied with an adapter. Quality Kingston product.
Would recommend this product for 16GB memory, more than enough storage space for my personal needs.
