SanDisk Extreme PRO microSDXC UHS-II is waterproof and superfast
SanDisk Extreme PRO microSDXC UHS-II (yeah, we know! It’s a really really long name for a microSD card) is now the world’s fastest microSD card. The Extreme PRO can hit whopping 275MB/sec transfer speed. The 64GB and 128GB SanDisk Extreme PRO microSDXC UHS-II cards will be available worldwide in 2Q16 for $179.99 and $299.99, respectively.
SanDisk has included a USB 3.0 card reader so that you do not face bottleneck in transfer speed. The new UHS-II cards are backward compatible with UHS-I host devices and will work at UHS-I speeds. Another great feature is that these cards are shockproof, waterproof, temperature proof and can withstand X-ray radiation.
“Action cameras are now the fastest-growing segment in digital imaging and drones are becoming increasingly popular, creating an opportunity for people to capture more high-capacity, high-quality 4K Ultra HD content,” said Dinesh Bahal, vice president, product marketing, SanDisk. “We designed this card specifically to address consumers’ needs for a faster solution when transferring massive files – and now, with nearly 3x the speed of our fastest microSD UHS-I card, this new offering dramatically reduces time spent transferring content.”
“Today’s mobile devices are more sophisticated than ever, and require more advanced technology to deliver the best possible user experience,” said IDC Research Director for mobile and tablets Les Santiago. “As the demand for higher quality content such as Full HD and 4K video increases, the need for higher capacity, faster storage solutions grows exponentially. The Extreme PRO microSDXC UHS-II card is at the forefront of delivering solutions that meet these evolving needs.”
“We empower our creators to capture amazing images around the world, ones that were previously out of reach. High-end professional imagery is captured every day with our products, and SanDisk’s new UHS-II card is a great complement to our portfolio,” said Basile David, Senior Content Manager, DJI. “These new cards deliver remarkable speeds, giving our creators more time to spend bringing their ideas to life.”
