Good Deal on SanDisk Ultra Micro SD Cards

May 23, 2019

The price of micro SD cards goes up and down on a pretty regular basis. Yesterday, BGR reported that the 128GB SanDisk Micro SD dropped below $19 for the first time in 2019. Today, the price went up about a buck, but is still less than $20. I paid $22.50 for the card back in November 2018 so under $20 is still a good deal. At the current price of $19.97, it works out to be $0.16 per GB, which is the same price per GB as the 256GB version. The better deal is the 200GB card for $27.04 ($0.14 per GB).

Some of the key details from the product page are:

  • Ideal for Android-based smartphones and tablets
  • Transfer read speeds of up to 100MB/s (Based on internal testing; performance may be lower depending on host device, interface, usage conditions and other factors.)
  • Rated A1 for faster app performance (Results may vary based on host device, app type and other factors.)
  • UHS Speed Class U1 and Speed Class 10 for Full HD video recording and playback (Full HD (1920×1080) video support may vary based upon host device, file attributes, and other factors.)
  • Shockproof, temperature-proof, waterproof, and X-ray-proof (Card only)
  • 10-year limited manufacturer warranty
