So what, it's like 6.6 cents per GB versus 5.1 cents, right

Would you say that's a big enough difference to justify the cost

Idk man, $40 extra smackers for only 112GB or so more seems kinda bad

What do you need a math wizard for? You've already done the math.

I'm not even sure what the question is, tbh. If you want size, go with the 512. If you want to save money, go with the 400. This isn't rocket science.

If your device only has the one memory slot, you are going to want to maximise your potential.

You don't need a math wizard for that, you need to put thought into what you will put on your memory card and how you're going to use it.

That math is wrong. You've calculated the number of GBs per dollar, so 6.7 vs 5.1 per dollar.

It's $.15 cents vs $.195 cents for each GB respectively.

Not a math wizard, I just think the extra 112 gbs isn't worth a $40 increase

It's not.
Another few months, when overpriced 1TB microSD cards start emerging, the 512s will drop in price.

If you're patient, just wait. If you're cool with various devices getting "hand-me-down" cards, go ahead and buy the 400 now and maybe the 512 later.
