Product Reviews

BEWARE: 128GB & 16GB cards are only UHS-1, compared to UHS-3 of the 32GB & 64GB cards

The 128GB & 16GB versions of this card are rated at UHS-1, compared to the much faster UHS-3 rating of the 32GB and 62GB models. Most of the reviews you’ll see on here with 5-star ratings showing 50-60MB/s write speeds are for the 32/64GB cards, but the 16/128GB cards are going to be a lot slower. They’ll still hit 60MB/s “transfer” (READ) speeds as listed in the item description, but the WRITE speed is a much slower 15-20MB/s - about ¹⁄₃ the speed of the UHS-3 cards! And that’s fine if you’re just using it in a device like a phone or tablet, or a basic P&S camera. But if you’re expecting lightning fast write speeds for something like RAW files with a DSLR, 4K video recording, etc, then look for another card which has at least a UHS-3 rating.I hate it when Amazon pairs products with different specs on the same page because the reviews of one item aren’t the same as the other items offered. Come on Amazon, you need to fix that! It should be easy enough to create a button which allows customers filter the reviews to show only those which are for the specific item that they are looking at.FOLLOW UP: Guess what I noticed today while looking at reviews for another product? Amazon now DOES have a way to filter reviews for only the specific item that you’re looking at! All you need to do is scroll down to where the reviews are and click “See all XXX Customer Reviews”, then when the reviews come up look for where it says “Filter by”, and to the right of that it says “All Formats” - just click on that drop-down menu and select the specific item for which you want to see the reviews. I swear they must have added this feature after I posted this review because I’ve never seen it before, and it has always been a major gripe of mine with Amazon reviews. Thanks Amazon!!As always, if you found this review helpful please slick the “Yes” button below the review. Thanks!!READ MORE

Need for Speed – A comprehensive review of the fastest microsd cards

All cards mentioned in this review are obtained from Amazon during the last week or two except when noted otherwise.Test Setup:Lexar Professional workflow UR1 microsd card reader was used for all tests except when notedCrystalDiskMark 5.0.2 x64 was used to produce all the test results and was set up with 2 passes and 100MB read/write sizeAll cards up to 32GB are formatted as FAT32 with 32KB allocation unit size, all 64GB cards are formatted exFAT with 128KB allocation unit sizeTest Results (Numbers are Sequential Read, Sequential Write, 4K Random Read, 4K Random Write in MB/s, speeds greater than 10MB/s were rounded to the whole numbers)16 GB AlphabeticallyLexar 633x** – 88, 25, 8.7, 1.2Panasonic U3** – 93, 42, 11, 0.7Sandisk Extreme Pro – 95, 80, 7.6, 2.632 GB AlphabeticallyDelkin U3 – 93, 59, 11, 0.6Kingston 90R/80W – 93, 58, 11, 0.6Lexar 1000x – 90, 57, 10, 1.4 <== the listed productLexar 1000x with Bundled Reader* – 148, 60, 10, 1.4Patriot EP – 90, 35, 10, 0.6PNY Turbo Performance – 91, 55, 6.9, 0.9PNY Elite Performance Lime Green – 94, 55, 7.4, 1.0Samsung Pro gray – 92, 82, 10, 3.6Sandisk Extreme Pro – 94, 87, 9, 3.0Sony up to 95MB/s – 91, 51, 4.8, 0.9Transcend Ultimate 633x – 93, 85, 8.1, 1.464 GB AlphabeticallyDelkin U3 – 94, 27, 13, 0.3Kingston 90R/80W – 94, 25, 13, 0.3Lexar 1000x – 92, 56, 12, 1.5Lexar 1000x with Bundled Reader* – 153, 66, 11, 1.7Patriot EP – 81, 22, 11, 0.6PNY Turbo Performance – 92, 54, 6.9, 0.9PNY Elite Performance Lime Green – 92, 54, 7.5, 1.0Samsung black – 82, 20, 8.8, 2.1Samsung Pro gray – 90, 80, 10, 3.5Samsung Pro+ *** – 92, 86, 10, 5.3Sandisk Extreme U3 – 92, 88, 5.5, 0.5Sandisk Extreme Plus U1 **** – 92, 58, 10, 2.8Sandisk Extreme Plus U3 – 92, 88, 9.4, 2.9Sandisk Extreme Pro - 97, 91, 10, 3.0Sandisk Ultra ***** – 46, 16, 7.0, 2.1Sony up to 95MB/s – 92, 49, 5.2, 0.9Transcend Ultimate 633x – 93, 83, 7.3, 1.4128 GB AlphabeticallyLexar 633x – 78, 28, 3.3, 1.4PNY High Performance – 81, 22, 5.4, 0.9 <== the listed productSamsung EVO+ – 82, 26, 5.9, 1,2Sandisk Ultra – 92, 19, 6.4, 2.4* The Lexar 1000x card is the only UHS-II card available and tested, the bundled USB reader has extra pins for reading UHS-II card** Came bundled with a device*** Purchased from a large west coast electronics retailer. This card is a new release and not currently available on Amazon. It is different from the gray-colored Pro card**** old model tested, not the current U3 model***** old model testedFastest Sequential Read:All tested cards were able to accomplish > 90MB/s, with the Lexar 1000x able to take advantage of UHS-II speed when using the bundled USB reader and leading the packFastest Sequential Write:Sandisk Extreme Pro, Samsung Pro+, Transcend Ultimate 633xFastest Random Read:Kingston 90R/80W.Fastest Random Write:Samsung Pro+Best overall:Samsung Pro+ and Sandisk Extreme ProOther observations:Performance and price are not proportional when it comes to selecting a microSD card. Some of the worst performing cards in this review also happen to be the most expensive.Not all 633x cards are created equal. The two cards reviewed from Lexar and Transcend are both marked as 633x but vary in performance greatly.4k video recording using action cams and drone cameras have a typical bitrate of 60mbps or 100mbps, corresponding to 7.5MB/s to 12.5MB/s. All cards in this review should theoretically be able to handle this usage easily.Using microsd card as supplemental phone storage potentially could benefit from a faster card,Best Looking Card (if it matters):Sandisk Extreme Pro: Red/Gold with white printLexar 1000x: White/Gold with Black/White printSamsung Pro+: White/Black with a red stripe and Black/White printPNY Turbo: Lime Green/Black with Black/White printUpdate 9/14/2015: Added additional cards to the list.Update 9/18/2015: Added 128GB Sandisk Ultra and Lexar 633xUpdate 9/21/2015: Added 2 PNY Elite Performance cardsUpdate 11/28/2015: Added Sandisk Extreme and Extreme plus 64GBUpdate 11/29/2015: Added Samsung EVO+ 128GB and PNY high performance 128GBREAD MORE
