Our verdict

A fast microSD card for drones, action cameras and Android phones that record demanding video. Top speeds require PNY's own reader, and it is not compatible with Nintendo's newest Switch console.

Overview

A drone case, an action camera bag or an Android phone is where the PNY PRO Elite Prime card goes to work, recording high-resolution video and running apps from the card. Full-speed transfers need PNY's own card reader, and an SD adapter comes in the box.

Its video speed class supports steady recording of high-resolution footage, and its app performance rating helps phones run apps from the card. Advertised peak speeds depend on PNY's reader, so other readers may be slower.

Who it's for

Content creators, drone owners and Android users get fast, app-ready storage with an adapter for full-size SD slots. Owners of the newest Switch console need a different card type.

Performance notes

Sustained write speed decides whether a camera can record high bitrate video without dropping frames, and the card's video class sets a minimum sustained rate. Read speed governs how fast footage offloads to a computer, with the peak figure reached through PNY's reader. App performance ratings measure how quickly small random reads and writes happen when apps run from the card.
