Class 10 and ready for HD video
At Mobile World Congress, SanDisk announced the world’s first 128 GB microSD memory card. It’s Class 10 UHS-I with read speeds around 30 MB/s and should be compatible with any device that can support SDXC, which includes most Android devices launched over the last few years. SanDisk also took the opportunity to announce a 64 GB embedded NAND module tailored specifically to Android devices, though right now they’re just sampling it to partners.
If we’re going to be going around shooing 4K video on our devices, it’s a good thing that memory is increasing so we can actually save that footage. Plus, the Samsung Galaxy S5 ROM size may also make you wish for a little bit more room. Beyond that, it’s hard to imagine loading up that much music manually. Still, at times like this I really feel for those that don’t have access to their SD card slot.
Amazon and Best Buy are going to be the exclusive outlets for the new cards, which are available right now for $119.99. How much room do you have free on your device storage? Are you going to pick up one of these 128 GB cards? Does having this much room enable any new use cases?
