Capacity: 512GBStyle: PRO Plus (180MB/s)*: USB Reader IncludedVerified PurchaseThis is the best so far. I have tested its speed and it's amazing... almost as fast as my hard drive.
But you have to use the USB that came with it. When I used an SD card , it went 4 times slower.
So if you don't mind this USB stuck in your laptop - this is one heck of an additional hard drive space.
I was very impressed and I had so many of them before... different brands. None was as good.
And it's been a week now and it's very reliable. The problem I had with other cards were that after a few days - the data would get corrupted or gone completely... but this card , so far , has worked perfectly.
I will update in 3 months.

- Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2025Capacity: 256GBStyle: PRO Plus (180MB/s)*: USB Reader IncludedVerified PurchaseI've been wary of buying 256Gb uSD cards as there have been so many fakes around, but this deal from Amazon themselves seemed safe as I know they'd replace/refund if fake. So I bought one for a very reasonable $20 and immediately run h2testw on it to confirm the true size and get a feel for the speed:
Warning: Only 244414 of 244416 MByte tested.
Test finished without errors.
Writing speed: 102 MByte/s
Reading speed: 112 MByte/s
102/112 is not the claimed 130/180 - *but* it i damned fast - faster by a factor of 2 or 3 than any micro SD card I've used before. And that was with the supplied Samsung USB reader - I haven't tried it on my Dell portable's built-in SD reader yet which ought to be a little faster (it took 1hr 15mins to test and I need my computer back now - I'll update this later if retesting gives interesting results)
I can definitely recommend this chip (if it stays around the price I got it at, or less).

- Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2024Capacity: 256GBStyle: PRO Plus (180MB/s)*: USB Reader IncludedVerified PurchaseI bought this for my GoPro 6 months ago to take on a trip to Costa Rica with me.
The main selling points for me were:
The fast read/write (data transfer speed) to assist with loading onto my desktop and editing
The sturdy construction. Some of the cheaper versions of this USB DRIVE/SD CARD combo are made very shoddily and I have had more than one just stop recording after a drop of my video camera.
MAJOR SELLING POINT:
It has an included reader which streamlines the interface between the actual processing camera and the USB drive that a computer hard drive can understand!
It is great to have fast upload/download speeds but even better to have a USB drive/sd card combo that will streamline that transition between camera and desktop.
And It is compatible (my apple safari and Windows X) with many interfaces, some of the cheaper versions do not have this and I’ve lost GoPro and other important footage as a result of data transfer incompatibilities.
I AGREE WITH THE FOLLOWING PARTS OF THE POST BY AAM:
Capacity: 256GB incl. USB ReaderStyle: Micro SDXC*: PRO Plus (160MB/s)Verified Purchase

5.0 out of 5 stars I bought for burst shots but of no use
Capacity: 512GBStyle: PRO Plus (160MB/s)*: USB Reader IncludedVerified PurchaseI bought it for my Galaxy S20 burst shots as I have been told that a high speed memory card is required for the shots to be saved to SD card. But unfortunately, even after using this, the phone saves it to the internal memory and I was told that Samsung made it like that. So my purpose was not served but the SD card and reader is quite good

5.0 out of 5 stars True to description, value for money, genuine product!
Capacity: 512GBStyle: PRO Plus (160MB/s)*: USB Reader IncludedVerified PurchaseOverall great SD card. One singular gripe about it.... The part where it's meant for you to grip the card out of things... it's barely there, so it's really differently to actually pull it out of some slots. Even the USB adapter it came with. I tried some other adapters and it got stuck inside. I tried to pull it out and ended up with all those scratches... the printing on the thing is really soft.
