Samsung has taken microSD storage to a whole new level with the launch of 1TB capacity variants of its popular PRO Plus and EVO Plus cards. These high-capacity cards bring the convenience of ample storage to a wide range of compatible devices, including smartphones, tablets, and portable gaming consoles.
With 1TB of space at your disposal, you can store an impressive amount of data. Samsung highlights that this is enough to store 45 console games (each weighing 20GB) or a staggering 400,000 4K images. While microSD speeds may not match the performance of dedicated SSDs, the 1TB capacity approaches SSD territory, making it an excellent choice for users who demand ample storage for demanding applications.
The PRO Plus and EVO Plus 1TB microSD cards offer impressive sequential read speeds of 180MB/s and 160MB/s, respectively. These speeds are fast enough for smooth 4K video recording and gaming, ensuring a seamless experience on portable devices. They are also certified for UHS Speed Class 3 (U3) and Video Speed Class 30 (V30), guaranteeing reliable performance for 4K UHD video recording.
Beyond just speed and capacity, Samsung has focused on efficiency and reliability. The PRO Plus and EVO Plus feature an advanced controller built on 28nm process technology, a significant upgrade from the previous 55nm technology. This results in improved energy efficiency and increased durability.
Samsung has also ensured that these cards can handle the rigors of real-world use. They are waterproof, temperature-resistant, and come with a 10-year limited warranty, providing peace of mind for users.
The Samsung PRO Plus 1TB microSD card is available for $119.99 USD, while the EVO Plus 1TB is available for $99.99 USD. Both cards offer exceptional value for users seeking high-capacity storage solutions for their portable devices. With their impressive capacity, speed, reliability, and affordability, Samsung’s latest 1TB microSD cards are set to revolutionize the way we use portable devices.
