Here is a quick look at the new Lexar 633x 128GB MicroSDXC Card which was announced by Lexar. There is finally an alternative for people who still have a sour taste in their mouths from previous experiences with SanDisk cards. It even comes with a USB 3.0 MicroSDXC reader. As of this moment, Amazon.com LLC, Adorama, and B&H Photo are the only authorized retailers for this card in the US.
Card is Made in Korea

Product Highlights from the manufacturer:
• Premium memory solution for sports camcorders, tablets, and smartphones
• Quickly captures, stores, plays back, and transfers media files, including 1080p full-HD, 3D, and 4K video
• Leverages UHS-I technology for a transfer speed up to 633x (95MB/s)*
• Stores more than 15 hours of HD video; 33,000 photos; or 28,000 songs**
• Includes high-speed, Class 10 card and USB 3.0 reader
• Limited lifetime warranty for card and one-year limited warranty for USB 3.0 reader
I saw it on sale a few weeks ago on Amazon and decided to pick it up. It arrived today and I ran some benchmarks for your viewing pleasure. Do note that you will not see these speeds while it is inside of your Note 4 as none of these phones are capable of these high read and write speeds. I've included the A1 Benchmark (in phone).
As you can see, the read speed inside the Note 4 is only half of what you'd get with a UHS-I compatible USB 3.0 Card reader.
I would certainly consider this the better card for only $10 more than the SanDisk Ultra, especially if you consider that the Lexar has superior speeds, a free USB 3.0 card reader, and a better warranty. It's not fast enough for 4k on the GoPro 4 Black (due to the lower write speeds), but it's definitely fast enough for 4k on the Note 4.
There's not much to say so feel free to ask questions.
Thanks for sharing l wonder If its available where I am located and hopefully at a decent price point

Thanks, I plan to get one
Nice, is this better then the Sandisk model?

I would say yes. It has a better warranty, faster read speeds, and Lexar is better than SanDisk in terms of reliability, especially when used in Samsung phones.

Of Course, better Datarates and no thermal Issues.
best regards
I've always had nothing but great experiences with Lexar! I purchased the 128 GB 633x from Amazon and love it! Can't go wrong with their products. That warranty is great to have as well.
Was there a price or did I miss it
That is definitely better than the ultra. And it does matter in the phone. I have a lot of Micro Sd cards because I have a GoPro so I tested the transfer speed in the phone of most of them. First I took a 1 gig video at 4K and saved it to the internal storage. Then timed how long it would take to copy it the the sd card from the phone. First the Sandisk Ultra took 83 seconds, then the lexar 600x took 57 seconds, third the Samsung Pro took 41 seconds. So there are real life scenarios that the speed matters. Also, since I have a GoPro, I hate that I have an Ultra card because it can't be used in it.

The US amazon currently has it $119.99US. On a side note, the Scandisk Ulta 128GB is $119.49 on the site.
Personally, not that I couldn't find a way to use the space, I'm just more waiting for the price to lower to around $50US. There will be some kind of sale. Till then, I'll torture myself with the 64GB Scandisk Ulta I've been using for over two years and the 32GB on internal storage
Anyone have any insider info if or when Samsung will release a 128gb of their pro card?

It's gonna take a while. They don't even have a slow version of the 128GB. They're gonna release the Evo before they do the Pro.

He said in his post. I pulled it up on Amazon
Yes,Lexar is also of a better performance on my GN4 as I add an external one with 64GB,and that's enough so far..
I still have not fill up my 64gb but if this goes on sale on Black Friday then I will really jump on it. Thanks for the info
Thermal Issues Exist
I received my 128 * 633 yesterday and loaded DivX files at about 21 mps and mp3's at between 11 MBps and 16 MBps using the enclosed USB 3 adapter. I was able to load between 3GB and 20GB at a time before the device experienced thermal shutdown. Device was too hot to touch upon shutdown and had to cool down before the computer would see it again. Do I have a problem unit or is this the unavoidable nature of the beast? I intend to run it in my LG G3 so I would be tasking it more gently than with my uploading.
did anybody have the chance to compare the lexar directly to sandisk or the new samsung 128gb sd cards in a phone?

So i recently bought this microSD card:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...NaB1JX0%3D&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK:MEWNX:IT
I was really excited that 32GB cards had gotten this cheap and for a class 10 one I was ecstatic!
Turns out it was a dupe and the drive is not only slow as a turtle, it doesn't really hold anything. (put 10GB of stuff on it and after the transfer was complete I went to the phone and only ~5GB of stuff was on there)
Also the adapter that came with it doesn't even work with it, it only responded to my phone (whereas my trusty 16GB from Dane Elec worked fine in the adapter).
Here's the comparison of my badass Class 2 16GB and the ****ty "Class 10 32GB"

Basically avoid any microSD sales from a user named: soundguyzbb
and I'd say it's safe to say that any microSD from the manufacturer titled "memorette" is bogus as well. I will attempt some of the other 32GB cards in this price range to see if there are any real ones.
This one will be going back for a refund tomorrow morning, I'll update if I find anything good or bad with my further market study
Excellent. Just plain excellent.
You. Just saved me $30
Bravo.

Doing some digging around I found Memorette looks to be a good company but if you notice their highest capacity on their own website is 8GB
The ebay ones all look generic and certainly different then the real deal, scammers gonna scam!

Idk but I just won a Class 2 ADATA 32GB card, I know they are a good company (I run an 8GB Class 6 SDHC in my camera from them and it's great) and am crossing my fingers I'll get another surprisingly fast card like the DaneElec 16GB.
Only cost me $40.03 with an auction, I saw some other brand name ones for $44, maybe slightly less. I'll be sure to make a review of the ADATA when I receive it. Ebay says it will be here between the 14th or 15th

i'm not complaining at that price, considering i have about 4 of the 16gb cards that the phone ships with
I had the same issue. Got one from ebay, real junk. Gonna wait till Best Buy has them on the shelf a couple months before I dive in again. Right now they still don't stock them. They keep saying "coming soon"
I paid $99 for my 32GB class 2 SanDisk microSDHC from Verizon when they first became available about a year ago. It's easily as fast as my 8GB class 6 ADATA which I bought from Newegg. I did some benches on it when I first got it and was really impressed. I'm sure I posted them here...
Anyway, I never buy memory cards on ebay. It's too easy for people to fake capacity and lie about speeds. Plus a high quality card with a low class rating in my experience is much better/faster than a low quality card with a high class rating.
Really struggling to find a good speed microSD. All the 128's seem to be slow as butt. Ugh... I know most folks may say a really fast card isn't necessary...but this is the first time I've spent this much on a phone (up front) so I want to max this baby out.
So far... I've found these.

(edit) Whoa, sorry the photos are huge! lol. Is there a way to limit their size? haha
Yeah I had this same problem. I decided to get the SanDisk 128GB anyway because of the Amazon sale. I found a really fast Samsung Pro one, but it only went up to 64GB. Hopefully you can find a really good one!

No worries...
Like I stated earlier, I've never officially tested the speeds on this card.
As far as speed, I can say its super fast. I really don't have any complaints. It's about as good as it gets when it comes to Microsdxc cards.
Read speed is around 90+ MB/s
Write speed is around 40-45+ MB/s
I think it depends on how you use it and on what type of device.
I was using it on a Note 4 and never had any issues. Loaded it up with music and videos including 4k videos and everything worked fine.
Also, if you use it with the USB 3.0 adapter that comes with it. It will be much faster at write speeds.
Hope that helps.
There will come another card by Lexar with 1000x and up to 150 mb/s:

I think that the pro+ is a beast of a micro SD card with that write speed. I could not justify the 230% cost increase over the evo+ to get it though. Honestly I doubt that there is anything I will do that will take advantage of the evo+ speeds in a phone anyway.

I ordered my pro + 128GB for 90€ Notebooksbilliger.de - through direct link from Samsung.com shop
Haven't seen any benchmarks yet except from one user on Amazon.
Mostly with the Gear 360 in mind.
Neither of the OP cards are fastest/best.
The two releasefastest UHS-II/U3 cards in microSD format are:
Lexar Professional 1800x (R: 270 MB/s, W: 220 MB/s) (sources: cameramemoryspeed)
http://www.lexar.com/professional-1800x-microsd
SanDisk Extreme Pro (R: 275 MB/s, W:225 MB/s) (source:cameramemoryspeed)
https://www.sandisk.com/home/memory-cards/microsd-cards/extremepro-microsd-uhs-ii
As of now (2/2016), there is nothing in the market that is faster. Not from Kingston, not from cheap Chinese knock-offs, Panasonic or from Samsung.
NB! The two cards in question are not as of yet available in all sizes (128GB coming later).
My personal limit for 128GB is 100€ that's why I went with the Samsung pro plus 128GB
If the Gear 360 would have been recording with 30 Megapixels at 30 or 60 fps I would have went with the 250MB/s cards
And yeah ... Work related am going at least once a day through X-ray... The pro plus should last at least 2 years

I think the EVO+ wins over the PRO+ only because of price. The cost per GB is a huge difference & when counting that in the PRO+ cant compete. But if cost is not factored I dont see the EVO+ being considered better then the PRO+ ever.

Here.. This one actually talks about the 2 specifically. https://www.ephotozine.com/article/samsung-pro--evo--microsd-memory-card-review-28061
The write speeds on the PRO+ are over 3x the EVO+.. Never heard of the site before so I dont know their testing methodology, but based on specs of the cards that is what you should be seeing.

NB! The two cards in question are not as of yet available in all sizes (128GB coming later).

FYI, I believe both of these cards use the UHS-II spec and needs the extra set of pins to provide full speed. Not sure if the S7 will support UHS-II or not

This is true. We don't know until somebody tests.
The card themselves however are the best in the market.
Whether S7 can utilize the speed, remains to be seen.
Hi guys, I'm thinking of getting the Samsung evo + u3 128gb or the sandisk ultra uhs-i 200gb.
Which of these cards would work perfectly for the note 9? I have read from somewhere that the note 9 can't fully utilize the speed of the Samsung evo +.
I would like to store my media on the card and 4k footage recorded should be stored directly into the card.
Thanks for the input.
I'm using the Sandisk 400GB and it's been flawless so far.
Go for a Samsung Evo + class 10 high end card. I have a 65 gig one and transfer speed and durability are excellent. They're only 20 bucks. I've had many problems over the years with other brands.
I have the same Sandisk Ultra 128GB Micro SDXC that I've used since I had my S7 and it works great. Only $27 on Amazon.
Same here, I use the Sandisk Ultra 128GB
I still use the 256gb Samsung that came with the note 7, works like a champ. I am waiting for the Samsung 512gb to come out, so I can have the 1tb total.

Thanks guys for the recommendation. I finally pulled the trigger on the Samsung evo + 128gb. Been using the same sandisk 64gb since my galaxy s3 days ( about 7 years) just need to upgrade the size . 128 + 128 in total seems about right.
However, the Note9 can't achieve the ideal speed of 90mbps write speed for this card.
If you have the extra cash I'd jump on this one right now. I'm using it and it's performing flawlessly.

90mb is about 11MB/s. Read will always be faster. Write takes longer. It is 2018 and I don't understand why people still don't understand this. But there are many people that believe the Earth is flat in 2018.

I guess you all missed the 400GB Sandisk for $99 on Amazon. I was trying to hold out for Samsung or SanDisk to come out with their 512GB micro SD card but realized it will probably be 12-18 months before price comes down to a palatable level so I settle for the 400GB for $100.
Best???? Well the 256GB HyperX Gaming uSD card... But only by a tiny margin (Claimed speeds: 100MB/s read speeds, 80MB/s write speeds):

Yeah that's actually a great deal. I think it's even marked down and it's Black Friday so...
Also have this one and love it
Also, using Samsung Evo 128.
Wish i could have purchased the 512 gb samsung sdcard on their website with my note 9, not fair why we cant get one for that same price for early preorders
Just curious, and to get ideas, guys. What reasons do you have for getting such large SD cards, perhaps lots of photos/videos? Currently still using my old 32Gb SD card from my Note 4 and still works well for backups and photos, plus w/ the Note 9's 128Gb, I've barely reached half. Where do you guys use it for, perhaps I may find some more usefulness for it and get a new, larger one. Thanks.

Exactly that. Videos, photos, music and documents. I rather have it on my device than access through the cloud.

Some people just consume more media and need more space for media than others. Games these days are also quite heavy for storage so they can eat up your internal pretty easily. And just to add to what @DarkManX4lf has said, some users would rather not be at the mercy of data coverage to access cloud storage. Having your media and other files on hand 24/7 regardless of data/WiFi coverage is a valuable option.
If your usage habits currently don't necessitate the use of a large Micro SD card then I don't see the point in replacing the one you have now.

I now use my cell more than my desktop/laptop. I can go an entire week or so without getting on there. So between it being my main computer at home, work, car, etc and also needing extra space for Gear VR games/media, the larger card is well used.
^What he said... I Forget the PC as much as possible!
I am confused, whether to get (prices in INR):
Samsung Evo Plus 256GB -/2899
SanDisk Extreme 256GB -/3105
SanDisk Ultra 256GB -/2337
Also, does the Poco X3 Pro support or benefit from A2 sd cards?
Go for Sandisk Extreme, I guess is a good choice. And yes, all android phones with API level 28 (android 9) supposed to support it. I have this one in my phone, is not A2 but I love it.

Sandisk has a long guarantee, with the extreme micro sds i guess 10 years. And yes, i had a defect micro sd from sandisk (could not be written on it nor delete files. I had to send them an individual card number (very small with laser written?? and a piccture of the destroyed card (murdered it with sissors) and i got a new one. Very good service. i think the extreme variant ist the fastest. If you consider the long guarantee, i think the higher price will result in higher profit

The SanDisk Ultra offers 10years and Extreme has got lifetime warranty!
You are pefectly right... What could be better than a lifelong guarantee??
Jup. SanDisk do have some pretty nice warrant. I've also replaced 2 broken cards. 128gb and 64gb back in the days.
They actually shipped back 2 different packages... They were huge for such a small card ^^
But Samsung isn't bad either.
Speed mostly isn't limited by the Card but by the reader of the smartphone or the software.

Man I greatly appreciate your detailed approach to various topics! Thanks for your benchmarks!
--Extension to my previous reply-- My SanDisk Extreme 256GB arrived yesterday and I'm gonna test today! The best thing is that they have Lifetime Warranty!

Thanks for the info. Did also test the speed in crDroid 7.12 (A11) on Poco X3 Pro 8/256 GB with the same App.
Internal Memory:
487 MB/S Write 1348 MB/s Read
Removable SD (in my case SanDisk Ultra 256 GB Class10 U1) exfat:
30 MB/S Write 74 MB/s Read
I measured the speed on the version with a 732 processor (the card readers in the devices are the same). I could not get more than 90/50 megabytes for reading / writing from a sandisk extreme card. I came to the conclusion that installing cards on this platform better than the mass Ultra Sandisk or Samsung Evo is a waste of money.

Indeed happy with the speed of Internal Memory and with the 8/256 GB version there is a lot.
I think UFS 3.1 256 GB in this price class is top value (paired with good CPU).
SD should be used as backup drive and for storage of files not opened often, like Music, Movies, etc.
@AIIIOT what app is that?
Looks pretty useful.

You're telling the truth. But, I answered the question about the memory card. There is no point in wasting money on the expensive one. The device is not the fastest card reader.

Neat.
Well, I am using a SanDisk Ultra Micro SD card for my Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro....
Okay.... Here we go...
200gb SanDisk Ultra which is 50% full.
400gb SanDisk ultra freshly Formated.
Will update in 3 hours when I've copied the 250gb Back to it -.-
