Professional GOLD microSDXC GL 256GB

The Lexar Professional GOLD microSDXC GL is a 256GB UHS-II memory card built for creators who need fast, reliable storage. It delivers read speeds up to 280MB/s and write speeds up to 180MB/s with a V60 video speed class rating. The card is designed for capturing high-resolution images, Full-HD and 4K UHD video without dropped frames. It operates in extreme temperatures from -13°F to 185°F.

UHS-II workflow integration

This card requires a UHS-II compatible device and reader to achieve its maximum 280MB/s read performance, which transfers files up to 75% faster than UHS-I alternatives. It fits standard microSDXC slots in drones, action cameras and portable gaming devices. The V60 rating guarantees sustained write performance for continuous high-bitrate recording. High capacity reduces the need to swap media during extended shoots.

Suited for drone, action camera

Professionals capturing 4K UHD video and high-resolution bursts will benefit from the V60 sustained write speed and 256GB capacity. Users with UHS-I only readers or devices will not reach the advertised 280MB/s read speeds. Buyers who need more storage than 256GB should look at higher capacity options. Devices without microSDXC support cannot use this card.

Questions about this item

At what sustained write speed does the V60 rating limit 4K recording?

The V60 rating guarantees a minimum sustained write speed of 60 MB/s, which is the limiting factor for continuous 4K UHD video capture without dropped frames.

How hot can the card get during all-day drone or action-camera use?

The card is rated to operate from -13 °F up to 185 °F, so it remains functional even during extended shoots in very hot environments.

Which reader do I need to reach the 280 MB/s read speed?

You must pair the card with a UHS-II reader; a UHS-I reader will not deliver the advertised 280 MB/s transfer rate.
