There is no difference at all from the memory particles, but the fonts on the particles are slightly different.
A very simple way is to carefully observe the word "R" next to the word "Kingston" on the memory label, which stands for registered trademark. False memory is generally not smooth enough, and its appearance has many edges and corners, but it is much smoother than the real one. In addition, if you look at the genuine "R" with a magnifying glass, the outer ring is made up of many small "Kingtong" characters, but the fake is not.
In addition, the real Kingston memory should also have a special "national warranty" anti-counterfeiting label, while the fake may only have the label of the agent.
In fact, the safest way is to call Kingston's 800 free genuine rights hotline (800-820-7655) or Kingston's website (
Flash memory warranty card attached to the back of the instruction manual.
From a vertical point of view, the anti-counterfeiting color code where the words "warranty card" are located is cherry red.
Vertical angle observation
From an oblique point of view, the anti-counterfeiting color code where the words "warranty card" are located becomes olive green. The colors of the blue label where Kingston's trademark head is located will also be interchanged.

In addition, Kingston's newly packaged flash memory card products, including CF card (standard, high speed, extreme speed), SD card (standard, high speed, extreme speed) and SDHC card, also have triangular color-changing anti-counterfeiting labels on their surfaces. Observing the anti-counterfeiting label from different angles will also reflect two different colors. Don't underestimate this little triangle. It is a brand-new magic weapon for Kingston's product anti-counterfeiting identification to adopt Taggant ID micro-printing anti-counterfeiting technology invested heavily by Kingston. Through Kingston's special optical instrument, we can zoom in and observe the color-changing anti-counterfeiting area of flash memory card, and see a clear and shiny "K" letter pattern ("ghost mark"), which is Kingston's genuine product. At the same time, Kingston is also applying the "ghost mark" to the anti-counterfeiting logo of new memory products.
Viewed from a vertical angle, it is rose red.
The tilt angle is olive green.
Another way is the price. Fake goods are generally cheaper than real goods, ranging from 50 yuan to 100 yuan. The difference is huge. Consumers should be able to see the truth by asking more questions. The above is just Bian Xiao's personal experience. Maybe the method is not comprehensive. If you have your own method, you may wish to leave a message below and share it with everyone. Finally, I still want to remind everyone that it is best to choose a reputable and trustworthy merchant to buy memory, so as not to be deceived.
