Planning to get one 16 Gb or my Zenfone 5. Which brand is better - Sandisk or Samsung?

Samsung MicroSDHC 16 GB 48 MB/s Class 10 Evo - Samsung : Flipkart.com

And why is this one so cheap? Is it a good buy?

You did read the theoretical speeds mentioned in the product link itself, right?
Samsung mentions it to be 48 MB/s, while transcend 20 MB/s and you still want to buy transcend? :confused:

OTG are a good option. But there is a problem they will always stick out so if you are not someone who cares about it so go ahead and get one OTG. But if you care go for EVO class 10.

Thanks. Bought the Samsung EVO 16 gb from Amazon. (Wanted to buy it from Flipkart, but in Flipkart warranty period was listed as only 1 year, but in Amazon it is 10 years!)

And I doubt it that they would give you that 10 years warranty. But still congo on your purchase.

Do you mean the warranty is void?
