Seems like a good deal for the rated speed and capacity. Price just dropped, been monitoring this for a while. Enjoy.

Yeah I got it for similar price, a1 SD on my note 4:
Read 65mb/s
Write 34mb/s
EDIT: Just noticed this is regular sized SD card.
That write speed it pretty disappointing…
Sorry Amazon reviewers confirm faster speeds
The results:
Sandisk 45 mb/s had read speeds of 30-36 mb/s and write speeds of 42-50 mb/s.
Sandisk 80 mb/s had read speeds of 45-50 mb/s and write speeds of 82-97 mb/s.
Samsung had read speeds of 57-68 mb/s and write speeds of 78-93 mb/s.

Thanks for sharing.
You quoted two different speeds from Sandisk. Are you referring to the 'Sandisk Ultra' and 'Sandisk Extreme'?
I know Sandisk also has a flagship Extreme Pro line but these seem to be very rare (at least on Ozbargain).
Hi All,
please see my edit note.
Mine is for a microSD sitting inside my note 4.
If I used it in a usb 3.0 drive im sure it will hit advertised speeds.
I edited it ages ago. lol
Awesome work! Just grabbed one for my a6000
I'd go with Lexar 1000x twin pack, better value and faster (UHS-II)- http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1090744-REG/lexar_lsd6…
except it's twice the price and out of stock
Read Speed 150 MB/s Maximum
Write Speed 30 MB/s Minimum
I'm not impressed by fast read speeds, and Lexar isn't exactly making any big claims when it comes to write speeds. On the other hand I have several Samsung Pro cards that test at 70MB/s + for sustained write speeds.
As for price:
2 x Samsung Pro 64GB = (AUD) 90.10 shipped
2 x Lexar Pro 64GB = (AUD) 99.14 shipped
If you prefer the Lexar specs, or just prefer them in general (for whatever reason) that's perfectly fine. But I don't think it's objectively true that they are better value.
Impressive read speed, however one you get to the write speed its like … Up to 30Mb per second…. My understand is the class specified is the minimum the card must sustain….
Is it that hard for flash manufacturers to say what the average write speed is for a card? They do it with SSD drives, so why not sd/microsd? </rant>
Fortunately amazon reviewers always have someone posting benchmarks (http://www.amazon.com/Lexar-Professional-UHS-II-Software-LSD…?) — basically 70mb per sec sustained, which seems to be roughly the same as the samsung give or take.
Awesome price !!! Might buy 2!!
Thanks OP, bought.
Was watching this item on camelcamelcamel for the last few months. I think the lowest for the past 9 months was $35
And I have read some review on Amazon, some claim this is the best in this price range, even faster and more reliable than Sandisk extreme pro
Glad I didn't get that 32gb deal…
So sad that note 5 likely has no sd card slot
I bought it at same price in April, but not the same exchange rate.
Thanks OP, grabbed one. Roomy upgrade from my 16Gb card.
