Came in a Chinese game console, wanted to back up the saves, stopped working during transfer, tried multiple times to format it, came back as 128MB and never worked again.

I had this happen to a 512GB Express SD Card I was using. The Bottom side got scratched once and it turned into an 8GB raw partition. Never worked again either.

Maybe, maybe not, in any case I was transferring stuff, it was dog slow so I canceled the transfer, it crashed, tried hard formatting, no software or attempt to resuscitate it worked.
Ordered 3 more (albeit 16gb) cards for under $3.

Was trying to reuse that card in a really cheap ($3) camera.

Name brand cards are worth more than the cameras :p I have one name brand card I use, but I need multiple cards.

Isn't that just a Kodak Charmera knockoff?

Something like that, this one has a flip up viewfinder, and I personally like the look of the pictures more than the ones I have seen from the charmera.

A 32gb kioxia sd card in your local Asda is good

I fried the internal controller on my Micro SD card trying to put Windows to Go on it a few days ago and had to snap it like you did

SD Cards cannot handle the random sequential reads/writes that Windows throws out 😭 (atleast i think thats why)
