Bought the Samsung Evo Select 512GB microSDXC UHS-I U3 during Amazon Pre Black Friday sale. The sale is from Amazon.com, but it is available on Amazon.sg as well.
I got it for S$75.52 with free shipping to Singapore since I am an Amazon Singapore Prime member. The usual price is about S$120 on Amazon, and on Lazada, it is selling for S$174.99.
Bought the SanDisk Extreme 128GB A2 MicroSDXC Card from iRoyal Shop on Lazada for S$33.50 during the 11/11 sale. It seems that the price remains the same after 11/11, it is still retailing for S$33.50.
After a week, I realized my order is not progressing. I contacted iRoyal on Lazada Chat. They got back to me pretty quickly. They told me shipping took a little longer as it went out of stock after I bought it.
I was looking for a USB-C micro/SD card reader and chanced upon SanDisk Extreme Pro SD UHS-II Card USB-C Reader on the Apple Store and it retails for S$75.
It is very expensive and can only read SD card.
The SanDisk Ultra 200GB MicroSDXC Card was Amazon Gold Box deal of the day alongside many other SanDisk products on 14th March 2016.
The price of the SanDisk Ultra 200GB MicroSDXC Card for the deal is US$59.99 (S$83).
I backed the Dash microSD and SD Card Reader on Kickstarter on 16th November 2015. The project was funded on 1st December 2015 after raising a total of US$11,492 out of their initial goal of US$10,000 from 717 backers.
I chose the US$22 reward level and shipping to Singapore cost another US$3 (despite it stating US$2). So in total, I paid US$25 (S$36).
Strontium recently launched their new range of MicroSDHC cards called Nitro Plus. The Nitro Plus MicroSDHC card is classified under the Ultra High Speed Class 3 specification UHS-1 (U3) for 4K Ultra HD high resolution standard (3840×2160) and hence it has a write speed of at least 30MB/s and read speed of at least 80MB/s.
Three capacities are available, the 16GB for S$32.40, 32GB for S$60.40 and 64GB for S$120.90.
The SanDisk Connect Wireless Media Drive is a pocket-sized media drive that comes with either a 32GB or 64GB built-in flash drive and a SD Card slot. It is extremely portable measuring only 65mm x 65mm x 13.5mm and weighing only 77g. The 32GB retails for S$139 while the 64GB retails for S$209.
The Media Drive is encased in aluminum and that gives it a solid build!
Toshiba FlashAir is the “no frills” version you can get out of Flucard Pro and Eye-Fi Pro.
It is being distributed by Trek 2000 (makers of Thumbdrive) in Singapore and is retailing for S$100+. Since Trek don’t enforce a Recommended Retail Pricing (RRP) model to the dealers, I can’t give you an official pricing. Right now only 1 capacity is available which is the 8GB.
Got the Eye-Fi Pro X2 8 GB from Amazon for US$91.49 together with my Cocoon Grid-It. Shipping cost US$21.46 in total.
The Eye-Fi is not officially sold in Singapore so you have to either get it from resellers who bought it overseas or you get it directly from Amazon. The Eye-Fi Pro X2 8 GB cost about S$160 when you get it from resellers in Singapore, it is more expensive, but you do not need to wait 1 to 2 weeks for it as normally they got ready stock. Amazon is cheaper but you have to wait 2 weeks (in my case) for it.
Went to Sitex 2008 yesterday with Julian, Kelvin and Weiquan. Surprising it was not very crowded. Now I am starting to dislike exhibitions at Sitex because it is so far! This year Sitex is quite a disappointment, Ban Leong did not take part and hence no Razer products. After walking Hall 5 and 6 of Singapore Expo, it makes me feel that this exhibition is selling TV instead of computer! The prices for some of the stuffs are not that cheap at all. I got my D-Link DNS-323 at S$199 from Comex 2008 back in August 2008 but now they are selling at S$209? Prices should drop and not increase!
I think the most value for money are the memory cards, thumbdrives and portable hardisk. Kelvin and I got the SanDisk Ultra II (Class 4) 8GB SDHC for just S$33. Julian got the SanDisk Cruzer Micro Skin 4GB Thumbdrive for just S$12! I bought the exact same thumbdrive for S$19.90 at Giant Hypermarket a few months back!
