Overview

Video class rated flash inside this PNY card sustains the write speed that Ultra HD recording needs, while app class performance lets Android phones run apps straight from the card. A full size SD adapter comes in the package.

High write speed and large capacity let action cameras and drones record long Ultra HD clips without stalling. As a UHS-I card, its top transfer rates stop short of professional UHS-II media.

Who it's for

Travelers, drone pilots and phone users who need room for long video clips and apps. Shooters with UHS-II cameras can get faster offloads elsewhere.
