  • Read and write speeds of the card are 95MB/s and 90MB/s, respectively, great for high resolution photography and 4K video recording. The card is also waterproof (down to 1 meter for 30 min), X-ray proof, and magnet proof.

    Samsung will launch its new storage card in the U.S., Europe, China and beyond (totaling 50+ countries) next month for $249.99.

  • What cameras use MicroSD that use that speed? GoPro?

  • Action cameras, smartphones, from cameras - Samsung NX mini used one.

  • And utilizes that speed? I suppose build it and they will come. Too bad we don't see any new CFast2.0 cards coming out though...

  • Well, good latest smartphones can write 4K videos at high bitrates.
