Our take on the Samsung Pro Plus 512GB MicroSD Memory Card + Reader
The Samsung Pro Plus is a UHS-I microSDXC card rated for up to 180 MB/s sequential reads and 130 MB/s writes, aimed at action cameras, drones, phones and handheld consoles. The bundle adds a USB card reader so you can move footage to a laptop without hunting for a slot. It sits above Samsung's Evo Select line in speed and endurance and below UHS-II cards that cost far more. Owners rate it as dependable for 4K video and fast burst shooting.

What reviewers say
Reviewers and owners treat the Pro Plus as a reliable, fast-enough card for cameras, drones and the Switch. Most praise real-world transfer speeds and durability; complaints center on UHS-I limits and the USB-A reader.
- SpeedPraisedOwners say reads and writes are close to the rated figures in a good reader.
- ReliabilityPraisedReviewers report no corruption after repeated use in cameras, drones and consoles.
- Sustained writesMixedLarge continuous transfers slow once the buffer fills, which matters for long 4K clips.
Questions and answers
- Is this card fast enough for 4K video?
- Yes. Samsung rates it for 4K UHD recording, and its write speed handles typical camera and drone bitrates. Very long continuous takes can slow once the card's cache fills.
- Will it work in a Nintendo Switch?
- Yes. The Switch uses microSDXC cards, and 512GB holds a large game library. Load times are limited by the console, not the card.
- What is the difference from the Evo Select?
- The Pro Plus has higher rated read and write speeds and is built for heavier use such as 4K recording. The Evo Select is the cheaper option for everyday storage.
- Does it come with an SD adapter?
- This set pairs the microSD card with a USB card reader rather than a full-size SD adapter. Check the box contents if you need an SD adapter for a camera slot.
- Is it compatible with phones and tablets?
- It works in devices with a microSDXC slot, including many Android phones and tablets. Phones without a card slot need a reader or OTG adapter.
- Is the card waterproof?
- Samsung rates it for water, temperature, X-ray, magnetic and drop resistance. Keep the reader dry; the protection applies to the card.
