I have used SanDisk cards for years, without issue. They are a huge manufacturer of flash memory, which is why their prices were always good. It is certainly possible and even probable that the quality has gone down. All kinds of companies lower their product's quality and reliability to make them cheaper to increase profits.

Yup, they've been the reliable, fast brand for me for SD cards for years. I'm not going to buy their SSDs, but I'll buy their SD cards any day of the week.
