What is the difference between these two cards?

Also is the Samsung "EVO Select" card better than the EVO+

I'm confused here.

The first 2 EVO+ cards appear identical except the last 2 letters. I'm guessing the one ending in /EU was intended for European retailers. Specs appear identical otherwise.

The Select card shares the exact same specs as the Evo+ so I think they are just different production runs.
 
They have the /EU card marked new arrival so maybe they imported some excess stock and got a great wholesale price on them and they are selling them cheaper.

B&H is reputable so I wouldn't worry about them being fake.
 
I assume you are buying a S8/ or +? You know you can get that card and a pair of Bluetooth over ear headphones for $99 right?
 
Samsung has been so sloooooow shipping promo items in the past. :'(
Hopefully they will be a bit faster this time around.
 
the promotion says only 50k of the $100 package and 350k for the free gearvr. will it run out very fast then?
 
That kind of sucks having to wait until the phone ships before being able to purchase the package. I just got mine through AT&T and was hoping if I ordered today, they would let me get the bundle. Does anyone know if Samsung will let us purchase the bundle sooner than April 20th?

You will have to wait and receive the phone first so you get the IMEI and MAC addresses needed for the promotions.
