Overview

Gamers, phone owners and drone pilots get a large microSD card that records Ultra HD video and moves files quickly. A Samsung adapter lets it slot into any device with a full size SD card slot, such as a camera or laptop.

Fast transfers and video class ratings let it record Ultra HD footage in action cams and drones without dropping frames. Protection against water, heat, magnets, X-ray and drops covers the usual risks of a card in the field. Listed speeds assume Samsung adapters and readers.

Who it's for

Handheld gamers, travelers shooting on drones and phone users short on space will fill this card with games and video. Photographers whose cameras need faster bus cards for burst shooting should look at higher spec media.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Fast transfers for large files
  • Rated for Ultra HD video recording
  • Adapter for full size SD slots
  • Survives water, heat, magnets and drops
Cons
  • Warranty listed as 10 years and 1 year

Performance notes

Real speed depends on the reader: the stated rates are achieved with Samsung adapters and readers, and generic slots may run slower. The video class rating sets a minimum sustained write that recording needs, which is what matters for video more than peak transfer. Actual speeds also vary by card capacity.
