It's indeed company greed or simply business reason with no actual good reason nor convincing.
Checking online market, thousands of people buying those fake SDCard and clueless about the originality, but don't be wrong, those thousands of people can stiil make a complaint and heard by phones company. It's impossible to check the originality one by one.
For me, I'd always take precaution and buying only from the official retailer. My sandisk was indeed suddenly death without any prior symptom, it was inserted to a samsung phone.

My problem now is about the screen touch, I don't know why frequently I missed to touch a button or link causing to redo the touch twice or three.
I experienced such issue with Redmi Note 8 Pro years ago and fixed by software update(s).

Anyway I will wait for A56 long term reviews.

A54 known as bad Exynos due to heats, some are better including the one on A55 and A56. I would say the RDNA on A56 a bit power hungry, but for casual usages, it's doesn't heat, very slightly warm on youtube or social media.
Snapdragon and Mediatek are not always running fine, many of them are power hungry as well.
Comparing my devices, Apple Bionic run cooler than SD.

My A54 can hardly hold a day even with light or moderate use.
A56 Exynos 1580 performs well but I'm really skeptical about power optimization and autonomy.

For me, the charging stopped to 85% (84%) and recharge around 20%. With that case I need to charge it once a day (no 3D gaming).

I just got the 12/256 for 400 euros. Everything works as it should, Samsung quality. Probably you could get better specs with a chinese phone, but in everyday life this phone is a joy to use with OneUI. Best midranger at the moment, especially if you can get it with a promotion.

To be note that people missing to compare at least:
1. The price of storage and RAM chips. Samsung is one of the best.
2. The price of components in the motherboards. Durability is the key.
3. Battery lifetime. My Xiaomi's tend to drop around 2 yrs with light usages and the replacement is not the same with the first one, despite original.

I have also bad experience with Sandisk, got it from Sandisk store during exhibition so it's 100% authentic. It's really expensive at that time. So far Samsung microSD have better durability, still keep it one with my 128GB older phone.

They bumped up the price by a fair bit, but the feature set hasn't really changed that much. I think at this point we're just paying for the brand name and they are stalling on the innovation.

Get something reputable (SanDisk, Transcend, Toshiba).

To my opinion, microSD is suitable for temporary storage (i.e: mirrorless camera, CCTV) rather than phone expansion.
With the price of microSD, we can buy SSD + USB holder, just put it in the wifi router and we will get personal free cloud (wannabe).
