Score: 81/100Rankings
The SanDisk Ultra Plus 128 GB SDXC UHS-I card offers fast 140 MB/s read speeds and rugged waterproof, shock-proof construction. Its U1 write speed limits suitability for 4K video and high-burst shooting. Ideal for casual photographers needing reliable Full HD storage.
The Samsung EVO Select 256 GB microSDXC offers high capacity and fast UHS-I performance, backed by six-proof durability and an IPX7 waterproof rating. Its main trade-off is a modest warranty period and potential speed drops on older devices. Ideal for Android phones, tablets and cameras where large storage and ruggedness are needed.
