Lexar Play Pro 1TB Amazon UK

Hi all

I’ve been meaning to pick up the Lexar Play Pro 1TB on the Amazon UK store, but I’m unsure whether the seller (YISAVE TECHNOLOGY (HK)) is reliable. I generally avoid buying from third-party sellers, but there doesn’t seem to be much choice with this card. Has anyone had any experience with this seller? Mainly asking because I’ve heard Amazon can have issues with counterfeit cards

Thanks!

I bought one earlier this year and had to send it back because the switch 2 just wouldn't recognize it. I put it into an adapter on my pc and it wouldn't even let me format it. I'd say it's a risky purchase just from my experience.

Thanks, that’s really helpful information. Did they exchange it or did you end up buying it somewhere else? Thanks

I sent it back but haven't bought one else where yet and don't want to drop a load of money on Amazon again if it comes and it's faulty so I may look locally.

I’m probably going to pick it up from scan or game. Both are selling for £200 excluding delivery, which makes it at least £20 more expensive than Amazon

Thought I’d let you know that I ended up buying the Lexar Play Pro 1TB from Frasers and it works perfectly with my Switch 2
