Is this card fast enough for 4K video?

Yes. The U3 and V30 ratings are the classes cameras expect for 4K UHD recording, and owners report steady recording in compatible bodies.

Does the 200MB/s figure apply to writing?

No. That is the read speed. Write speed is lower, so plan around it for long bursts or large video files.

Will it work in my camera?

It fits any device with a standard SDXC slot that supports UHS-I. Cameras limited to SDHC or older standards may not accept a 256GB card.

Does it work in a UHS-II card reader?

It fits, but it runs at UHS-I speed. A UHS-II reader will not make this card faster.

Is it a good card for a phone or tablet?

Only if the device has a full-size SD slot. Most phones and tablets need a microSD card instead.

Our take on the Kingston Canvas Go! Plus 256 GB Class 10/UHS-I (U3) V30 SDXC

The Kingston Canvas Go! Plus is a UHS-I SDXC card rated U3 and V30, with read speeds up to 200MB/s. That makes it a fit for 4K UHD video and burst shooting on a DSLR or mirrorless body. It is a mid-tier card: faster than basic UHS-I cards, but it lacks the UHS-II bus and sustained write ratings that pro video shooters look for. Owners rate it highly, and the main caveat is that write speed trails the headline read figure.
