Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The Actual product being offered and shipped by Amazon is the same model number, but the manufacturer (Transcend Taiwan) specifications are actually different. This is probably why there are a few reviews with people saying the speed is not as fast as expected/advertised. I have attached some photos of the actual product received on (2) separate occasions that confirm the true spec is up to 45MB/s sequential read (20MB/s sequential write). If you compare the photos I supply and the ones on the Amazon web site, you will see the Amazon photo does not show the printed speed rating to the right side of the device packaging. Regardless, the speed is fast enough to handle any phone and/or tablet read task which often peak at 15MB/s or less. I have also attached a quantified benchmark using CrystalDiskMark 3.0.2 x64 within Windows 7 on a high-end Dell Precision M6600 workstation. The results are within the specification guidelines so I have concluded the Transcend 32GB MicroSDHC is snappy and as advertised on the *packaging* even if it is not on the Amazon web site. Therefore, the product receives 5 stars from me and Amazon should correct their error. Lastly, as with all memory, 32GBits = 29GBytes once you do the real world conversion so do not concern your with any discrepancies there.
