  Is there any data to support the claim that u1 cards cannot do 4k? I get read speeds on my 64bg ($25) Kingston card of 20+mb/s, and it seems to record 4k on my phone quite well.

  High max read rates are great for dslr photography, but not sure about it being a requirement for 4k.

    Not that I have read. I just copy/paste the blurb from Shopping square. It's about getting sales I guess.

    As you've said, the high speed cards come into their own with high speed photography. I sometimes shoot 11 shots/sec taking action/sporting shots so a high speed card gets it written off the buffer quickly.
    This is the cheapest I have seen these Sammy cards.

      I recall reading somewhere that the PRO series (not sure about the plus flavour) use it was either SLC or MLC ( I don't recall exactly which) , rather than the common TLC used in the EVO —- regardless the article stated the result is a more durable flash technology for longer life, use and faster performance.

    It depends on the bitrate of encoding that the camera uses - not all 4K video streams are created equally.

    I have one camera that at 1080P that generates about 32mb of data per second so you need the really fast cards to prevent buffer underruns.

    4K camcorders seem to range between 50-75mbit per second, mirrorless like the GH4 need a notch over 100mbit rate, and 200mbit for iframe 1080P.

    So to answer your question, some cameras will happily do 4K on a U1 (class 10) card, while other cameras will start complaining about your card being slow.

  Any good deals about for 128GB or so ? Looking to replace the card in my Surface Pro 3, it seems to be giving errors from time to time leading to corrupted files :(

    So far the top speed micro sds aren't being made in 128gb.
    You can usually find an evo plus 128gb for around $80+ which is the fastest high capacity card i'm aware of

  Anybody able to tell me if there is any difference between the Sandisk 64gb Extreme Plus & the Sandisk 64gb Extreme Pro & this Samsung 64gb Pro Plus micro SD cards?

  From what i could find, there is no difference in read/write speeds between the sandisk extreme plus & extreme pro micro sd cards, so not sure why there are two different versions for the sandisk variant.

  Thanks in advance.

    Would take like a minute of using Google but anyways…

    Sandisk Extreme Plus - Read Speed: 80MB/s - Write Speed: 60MB/s
    Sandisk Extreme Pro - Read Speed: 95MB/s - Write Speed: 90MB/s
    Samsung Pro Plus - Read Speed: 95MB/s - Write Speed: 90MB/s

    So Sandisk's Extreme Pro is the competitor of Samsung's Pro Plus, which is why they are around the same price, and the Extreme Plus can be gotten for quite a bit cheaper.
