256 GB microSDXC for gaming and 4K video

This 256 GB microSDXC card carries UHS-I U3, V30 and A2 ratings. Read speeds reach 100 MB/s and write speeds reach 60 MB/s. It is built for Nintendo Switch, action cameras, drones and Android devices that need fast app loading and 4K UHD recording. The card is new and includes a five-year limited warranty with free data recovery starting from 2020.

Fits any microSDXC slot without extra hardware

The card slots directly into microSDXC-compatible phones, tablets, laptops, cameras and handheld consoles. No adapter or external power is required. UHS-I bus support frees the host device from slower legacy speed classes. A2 qualification means random read and write performance is high enough to run apps from the card. Waterproof, shockproof, temperature-proof and X-ray proof construction protects data in harsh environments.

Suits creators and gamers needing 256 GB of U3 V30

Buyers who want 4K video capture, fast game loading and app performance on a single card will benefit. Users who need capacities above 256 GB or sustained write speeds beyond 60 MB/s should look at something else. Devices limited to microSDHC or non-UHS-I interfaces cannot use the full speed rating.
