Samsung Electronics America has just released the latest evolution of their extremely popular EVO Select and EVO Plus microSD cards. These cards are designed for mobile devices, handheld gaming consoles, cameras and well, pretty much any device that takes the microSD memory format!
The Samsung EVO Select and EVO Plus microSD cards come with some welcome upgrades, such as a boost in transfer speeds, as they now run 23% faster with up to 160 MB/s transfer speeds, making them great for those loading larger games, recording higher resolution video and more.
“With the mobile and handheld gaming market on the rise, we sought to make data transfers on those devices even faster with these updated EVO Select and EVO Plus lines,” said Jose Hernandez, Senior Director of Memory Product Marketing at Samsung. “We also heard the need for more space options like a 1 TB memory card for digital files like games, video footage from phones, cameras and drones, photos, and creative designs. With this addition to the lineup, you can be confident you’ll have plenty of space, fast speeds and the durability needed to last for years to come.”
The updated microSD cards offer fast, reliable, and durable storage in a variety of capacities to fit your needs. With speeds up to 160 MB/s, you can instantly transfer, store, and share everything from vacation photos to portable game libraries. The cards are extremely versatile, with universal compatibility for Android smartphones, tablets, laptops, and portable gaming consoles, ensuring one card can fit multiple household devices. Additionally, the Grade 3 (U3) Speed Grade ensures compatibility with most high-resolution and 4K video recording devices.
Samsung microSD cards with capacities of 128 GB and higher support an application performance class of A2, which is important if you plan to install and use applications (apps) with a microSD card and your mobile device like a tablet or smartphone. The cards also support a video speed class rating of V30, enabling you to quickly move large video files.
Backed by Samsung six-proof protection, the microSD line can withstand water, extreme temperatures, x-rays, wear-out, drops, and magnetic impact. You can feel confident that your data is safe from the elements whether you are at home, at work or on vacation.
For the first time, Samsung will also offer memory cards in 1 TB capacities for the EVO Select microSD and PRO Plus microSD lines. The PRO Plus microSD line is designed for photographers, videographers, and content creators with action cameras and drones. It boasts transfer speeds of up to 160 MB/S, so users can seamlessly capture 4K ultra-high definition (UHD) and Full HD (FHD) videos and photos. The 1 TB EVO Select and 1 TB PRO Plus microSD card options will be available later this year.
The EVO Select and EVO Plus 64-512 GB microSD cards will be available starting today on Samsung.com and select retailers. All lines and capacities offer a ten-year limited warranty.
