    Reasonably fast card for a very compelling price during Black Friday. Went for this 256GB version after purchasing a few other 128GB size cards. I like the ability to use the microSD card with an adapter when needed on my Lumix S5IIx.

    Purchased this micro SD card for use in my new drone. It is quick and stores so many images and videos I can’t imagine filling it up and that peace of mind is nice to have when going out on a photography expedition.

    256 GB is really ideal for a GoPro camera. That’s what I use it for. All of my content is beautiful shot in 5K and to be honest sometimes the videos & pictures I’ve taken amaze me just how great they look, but with this SD card, you’ll have plenty of room to start getting those shots and pictures that you have been wanting to get.

    This is in my modified iPod Classic. I have had zero issues, and the reason I love my iPod is for it's reliability, and it's still just as reliable as 10 years ago, but now with even better storage. Also my Classic is a serious pain to open, and I would rather never open it again. This card has been a great choice.

    It does what it claims, it stores stuff. In my case this means GoPro videos starring my son playing video games and fishing. I remember when 256mb cards cost $100, so I felt like the price was right. Hoepfully it just lasts longer than my Samsung refrigerator and it doesn’t blow apart like my Samsung washer.

    I recently purchased the 250GB SD card, and I must say it has exceeded my expectations. This little card packs a punch in terms of storage capacity and reliability. Whether I'm using it in my camera, smartphone, or laptop, it performs flawlessly. The 250GB of storage is ample for my needs, allowing me to store a large number of high-resolution photos and videos. I've also used it to transfer and store important files, and it has never let me down. What I appreciate most about this SD card is its speed. It offers quick data transfer rates, which is essential for smooth recording and playback in my devices. I've never experienced lag or delays, even when working with large files. Durability is another strong point. It has survived accidental drops and various environmental conditions without a hiccup. This kind of reliability is crucial for someone who relies on their storage media. In conclusion, this 250GB SD card has become an indispensable part of my digital life. It's reliable, spacious, and speedy, making it a great investment for anyone in need of reliable storage. I highly recommend it.

    Super fast, holds lots of photos (even when shooting in RAW), and is reliable. 10/10 worth the money.

    Slapped this bad boy into a portable gaming system and instantly tripled the space for ROMs and such - and for $19.99 it really can't be beat. Don't cheap out on trashy memory, this and Sandisk are really the only ones I ever refer to as "can't go wrong". Read and write speeds are tremendous for a microSD card as well. Buy them and trust your data will stay secure!

    These were on sale, and I had some rewards built up that were to expire. I purchased one of the first usb drives for $200 and it was under 2 gigs i guess and not that small. I know that SD cards have gotten cheaper, but I may place more value on them for reasons most would not. I have never had one as big as 256, and my new Air 3 was in need. On sale for under $20 and I was able to buy 3 for about $10 with using my rewards. The Air 3 uses about a gig of space per minute of recording. In the past I had to pull the card, upload it to the computer, and basically wait. Now I have 1 for the controller and 2 to swap from the drone. The cards seem to be top notch, and they are faster than I had used before.

    When on sale at good prices (I paid ~$20 each for 256 gigabyte each) , these are very favorable compared with hard drive or compared with cloud storage. Light weight , vastly less initial latency , somewhat better performance , no sound

    My old microSD card was running out of space on my kids Nintendo Switch. This gave them a lot more space and the price was really good too. Its a lot cheaper than the Nintendo branded SD cards.
