Our take on the SanDisk 256GB Extreme microSDXC UHS-I Card

The SanDisk Extreme microSDXC is a UHS-I card rated V30, U3 and Class 10, with quoted read speeds up to 190MB/s and write speeds up to 130MB/s. The A2 app performance rating targets Android phones, while V30 and U3 suit 4K video in action cameras, drones and dash cams. Against UHS-II cards it gives up peak speed, but most phones, action cams and drones only run UHS-I, so the extra bandwidth of pricier cards often goes unused. Buyers rate it 4.2 out of 5; the common complaints are cards that fail early or arrive slower than expected.

Questions and answers

Is this card fast enough for 4K video?
Yes. It carries V30 and U3 ratings, which cover 4K UHD recording in action cameras, drones and phones. Sustained write speed can dip in very long recordings.
Will it work in my phone or tablet?
It fits devices that take microSDHC or microSDXC UHS-I cards. The A2 rating is aimed at Android app performance. Check that your device accepts 256GB cards.
Do I need a special reader to get full speed?
Peak read speed needs a UHS-I reader such as SanDisk's PRO-READER, sold separately. A basic USB reader will transfer more slowly.
How does it compare with UHS-II cards?
UHS-II cards are faster in UHS-II devices, but most phones, drones and action cameras run UHS-I only. For those, this card's speed is close to the practical limit.
What is in the box?
The microSDXC card only. No SD adapter or reader is included.
Is 256GB enough for a drone or action camera?
It holds hours of 4K footage and thousands of photos, enough for most trips. Heavy daily 4K shooting may want a larger card.
