SanDisk 128GB Max Endurance UHS-I microSDXC Memory Card with SD Adapter

Bought this for my dashcam memory storage and also because i accidentally bought a fake one before. So i directly bought from the distributor this time around. Been using it for almost a month. Haven’t had any problems unlike the fake one i couldn’t reformat it anymore after its storage got full. Also big plus since if you buy from this store, they have 10 years local warranty. I hope that is true if ever the time comes that it breaks.

Buying memory cards online can be a real minefield not all are as advertised just read the reviews on some sites. So it was only after a great deal of sifting and searching and checking selling history etc. that I finally decided to chuckmebuck in the direction of this particular seller. Have to say that Im really pleased I did. Sure, there were some available elsewhere at a slightly lower price, but that is small consolation if they prove not to be the real thing and you end up losing your treasured memories. Besides which, I needed the card in a hurry for a trip I had coming up the following week so buying from a local seller seemed the sensible choice.

Besides which, I needed the card in a hurry for a trip I had coming up the following week so buying from a local seller seemed the sensible choice. Being Mr. Skeptical, the first thing I did on receiving the item 2 days after placing the order was to check the manufacturers product packaging all seemed correct. Next, and more objectively, I checked the readwrite and formatting stats using the freely available h2testw1.4 app just use your favourite search engine to locate a bonafide copy, remembering always that other products are available.... Again, all good Bear in mind though that when formatted, no memory card will display the full available manufacturer stated capacity. So, for a nominal 32Gb card, dont be surprised to see somethinglike 29.7Gb available capacity once formatted. This is normal and does not necessarily indicate a faulty card. So, for my card it all checked out as the genuine article and has been happiliy capturing my adventures on my action camera which I rigged up as a dashcam managing to completely fill the card over the course of a couple of days. All of my journeys were then replayed and relived on my laptop sad I know without a hitch or glitch. In summary, yes, Im very pleased with the card and would recommend it and the seller without hesitation. Purchased from Picstop Jul 2018

In theory, every device that supports a card with over 32GB is supposed to be able to run cards up to 2TB which dont yet exist, but in reality, my impression is many Android devices cannot handle the card capacity easily. Google Music failed to detect all the music albums on the cards, and especially whenever there were several albums starting with the same characters such as Album Name Disc 1, Album Name Disc 2, it only showed and was able to play the first album in the set. The VLC Media Player app had very hard time scanning the card and creating a library of the videos. The process took over an hour and easily broke whenever I switched to another app or when the phone switched to standby. I seems like the Android device industry is not ready for such a large ... MoreIn theory, every device that supports a card with over 32GB is supposed to be able to run cards up to 2TB which dont yet exist, but in reality, my impression is many Android devices cannot handle the card capacity easily.

I seems like the Android device industry is not ready for such a large memory card I tried it on two generally excellent devices Samsungs Note 9 and Huaweis MediaPad M5. Also new photos are not easily detected in the Gallery App or Google Photos app. So be aware that only Samsung Galaxy Note 10 is claimed by Samsung to support a 1TB card.The only type of devices where the card worked perfectly and seamlessly was Windows PCs. I tried it on the Surface 3 and Surface Pro 2017. These are not even the latest versions, but the devices worked perfectly just as if it was a 128GB or 256GB card. This enables you to use the card as additional storage space without any problem.

Glad to say its a legit card and even outperformed its guaranteed rating when benchmarked working well for filming and on my phone. Storage space is as claimed.As I appreciate this may be doubledutch to some Ill explain the claims on the card a little and attach the benchmarks I ran to check the card was genuine go the review which will hopefully mean more if you understand what youre seeing. It does sometimes feel like all these standards just exist to confuse. Half the problem is overlapping claims.The card carries the following performance guaranteesC10 write speed at least 10mbs almost all cards will prob have this these days.A2 A1 is good for apps on phones, A2 is supposed to work well with phone apps suspect this relates to read speed.

This card is A2.U3 This claims the write speed will be over 30mbs thus is as high as u numbers go.V30 also guarantees a write speed over 30mbs the higher levels of this available are V60 And V90 and cost a lot more. Note though that when I benchmarked it this card outperformed its claimed specifications.In practical termsIf using on a phone like me A2 is likely desirable.Biggest issue really is for those recording video. 30mbs will do you fine for 1080p and some 4k at normal frame rates. For high frame rate 4k or 8k and youll want V60 or V90.This card is working well in my phone and using an Omni pocket recorder at very high frame rates and filming in 4k. I havent tested on my Nintendo switch but as thats easier than 4k video it should perform well.When I benchmarked the card it had an average write speed of over 60mbs which would likely even cope with 8k filming. This is great as if the test was typical that would even have made the grade for a V60 specification rather than the advertised V30. Not sure if I lucked out with my card or if those write speeds are typical.Note that I tried testing initially through an external adaptor and got a spurious low read and write reading. When I tested inside my phone I got better stats and when I used a better Micro SD to USB C adaptor. So if youre not getting fast speeds try another micro SD card reader in case thats the bottleneck.All in all very pleased with this.It comes with a micro SD go SD adaptor which would be great but I have so many Ill likely just bin it. Packaging isnt the easiest to open without nails.I very much appreciate the lifetime guarantee from SanDisk which gives piece of mind.Benchmark stats on screenshot last write on the histogram was this micro SD card.

I have seen other reviews on here complaining about the transfer rates on this memory stick. I have purchased for about 6 a USB3 car reader from Anker and this is giving me the speeds shown, its about 80Bs write and about 90 read, so not as fast on read as what is suggested, but that is still very acceptable. Please note that a number of factors come into play when using storage like this. The CPU will do a lot of the work, so will need a good CPU to see full speeds, also the drive being transferred from or to needs to support the speeds you want to see. In my case, I am seeing these speeds from both mechanical drives and NVMe drive in my PC.With regards to space, please understand what a GB is, its 1000,000,000 bytes, where as a GiB is 1,073,741,824 bytes, so, for ... MoreI have seen other reviews on here complaining about the transfer rates on this memory stick.

I get 119GiB which 128GB. 238GiB256GB and 372GiB400GB. Please ensure you understand space calculations before you complain that what you purchased does not match up to what is shown in Windows. The space shown on the packaging is actually correct giga billion, gibi is based on the 1024 calculation of space used by computers and this is acutally what windows shows.I will look at getting more of these as required in the future, using this one in my drone for 4K video recording

Price is relatively comparable no matter where you go for it mid60s. So, if you can buy it with Free Shipping and No Tax so much the better I bought two of these and they work great in both my Nikon D7100 and D5300. A good test of any cards capabilities is to setup the exposure mode in RAW 14 Bit plus JPEG and throw the camera in continuous shoot mode besides what the cameras buffer can handle, you should see what amount of time it takes to get the first six images on the card. That is also with the caveat that the camera has the same continuous frames per second rate. Or try it with another card in the same continuous mode on each camera. I think for the most part most people will buy this card for the larger HD video and still storage capable with these cards.

I think for the most part most people will buy this card for the larger HD video and still storage capable with these cards. For that this card can handle most of what you can throw at it for 95 of the uses you might have. High speed video or super high speed continuous exposures with a high frame per second rate can ultimately push any card to its limits. I definitely recommend staying with brand name memory card manufacturers. Too many problems with offbrands Transcend among the worst I have used. And as a final caveat, make sure your camera supports the use of the card before laying out your hard earned bucks. This is a Class 10 SDXC, V30 and 4K compatible card. This card is also one of the few recommended for the new Nikon D750. Feel fortunate you dont have to shell out the bucks for a Compact Flash version with the same specs. That would run hundreds of dollars.

I bought this SanDisk Extreme Pro 128GB SD card drive for FLAC music file structure drive for a cars storage drive. I tried xFAT and NTSF format and the copy speed remained at 20 MBs with either. I also set the W10 drive into high performance mode from the device manager and the write speed stayed at 20 MBsec sustained.Im not sure were the 170MBs speed comes from but I didnt see that on a USB 3.0 MSI X570 ACE motherboard. There are 8 bits in a byte and 20MB8 bits per 1Mbyte 160 mbps but the drive is clearly labeled 170 MBs big M. I didnt try PEAK write speed as I copied the entire file at once 105 GB of FLAC files.No matter, I copied once and hope the drive does well for reads in a relatively harsh car dash over the years The price is OK at 30.00 or so and Ive never ... MoreI bought this SanDisk Extreme Pro 128GB SD card drive for FLAC music file structure drive for a cars storage drive.

I dont use large file copies often so the speed isnt really the topic but the durability is. Ill see about that but the same SD card in a car I have owned the last three years is doing fine so, I bought another oneAs far as quality and ease of use, there isnt much to say about a plastic case and the HW hidden inside. It will format came with xFAT for PCMAC compatibility out of the box any way you want. There is a small amount of reserved file space so dont expect all 128 GB to be available. Mine showed 118GB of free space after a NTSF format.

Works perfectly in my Samsung A51. In researching which card to buy I decided I wanted a top performing card that will hopefully last a couple of phones which is what Ive done in the past. So I wanted a card with A2 functionalityfor running apps off the card and I decided on buying at least 128GB for the extra storage capacity and the better speeds that come with the larger sized Extreme cardsIm not positive now but I think it was the 128GB and up had better speed ratings than the 32 and 64GB cards. I purchased the 256GB SanDisk Extreme PLUS because it was the best value at the timeit was on sale. I ordered online and BestBuy shipped to my house. It arrived a few days ahead of the expected delivery date. I first put this into my laptop to transfer several gigs of ... MoreWorks perfectly in my Samsung A51.

I purchased the 256GB SanDisk Extreme PLUS because it was the best value at the timeit was on sale. I ordered online and BestBuy shipped to my house. It arrived a few days ahead of the expected delivery date. I first put this into my laptop to transfer several gigs of music, movies, and pictures onto itusing the included SD card adapter. I then installed it into my phone and moved all my documents, images, videos, and audio to this card combining the new stuff from my laptop with that from my phone. I set it to be the default location for all the file types mentioned, so now, any new stuff goes right to the microsdxc card. I have not installed or used any of the apps offered by SanDisk. I have not performed any bench tests but I dont notice any discernable lag or delays in accessing the data compared to my internal memorywhich is test enough for my needs. Ive yet to install or move apps to the microsdxc card. But the card has been installed for almost 2 months and now that my confidence in this product has been confirmed, I plan to move a few less often used apps to it as well. Overall Im very happy with this purchase.

[Rewarded Review] Perfect for dashcam

This SD card has worked perfectly in my new dashcam. The write speeds are fast enough to record 1440p 30 FPS footage. The read speeds on my computer via the included microSD to SD card adapter were surprisingly fast. I was able to transfer a 500 MB file in under 10 seconds. Most importantly, the durability rating has endured being parked outdoors in over 100 degree weather for the past 15 days. The included warranty is a great addition for a SD card that focuses on durability. Do note that the warranty length depends on the capacity you get. This is due to the fact that larger capacity flash storage is more durable. I would totally recommend this to anyone looking for a durable SD card.

previous experience has been good

I really have not had a chance to use this card yet as the Kasa camera has been a problem. But I do have a few of these cards in other Kasa cameras and they have been very reliable. Originally I had High endurance and they failed but SanDick & B&H worked with me to replace with Max cards. They have worked well for some time now.Any device needing the MAX type cards should have BOLD notifications. I missed that originally but since switching to the MAX cards I have been pleased with the results!
