So the same advice applies as for the Extreme Plus: buy if you can take advantage of the speeds, but if not you can save and go for an Ultra (or the Samsung Evo Plus).

So, while the Extreme PRO may technically be one of the fastest around, most people wonвЂ™t see noticeably faster speeds than are available from the Extreme Plus or even Ultra cards from SanDisk. It managed the fastest 4KB read speeds weвЂ™ve seen of 9.9MB/s but write speeds of 3.3MB/s werenвЂ™t great. We saw a read speed of 94.6MB/s and a more-than-decent write speed of 85MB/s. We only had a standard USB 3 microSD card reader available to test the Extreme Pro on our PC, and thatвЂ™s the situation most people will be in. Unfortunately, most devices are limited to the UHS-I speed of 104MB/s so unless you happen to have one that allows for faster transfer speeds you wonвЂ™t see that 170MB/s. But with read speeds of up to 170MB/s and write speeds up to 90MB/s, itвЂ™s also ideal for 4K video recording in your drone, action camera or dash cam. ItвЂ™s rated A2, which makes it faster for loading apps and dealing with the stuff necessary for phones and tablets. The fastest microSD card that SanDisk offers for consumer electronics, the Extreme PRO starts at 32GB and goes up to 1TB. It may not be as fast as the Samsung Extreme PRO (below), but at its price, PNY offers incredible value for money, making it the best overall. So, whether you need a microSD card for your phone, an action camera or dash cam, the PNY Pro Elite is a great choice with impressive prices. The latter is more than enough for recording 4K in consumer cameras. We saw fairly decent results for large files with 88.7MB/s read speeds and 81.7MB/s write speeds. However, as we found in CrystalDiskMark, even the 128GB card we tested outperformed all other options including the A2-rated SanDisk Extreme PRO card for 4KB performance, managing 12.4MB/s for reading and 5.3MB/s for writing. The higher capacity options also offer V class ratings. The 512GB card, for example, is rated A2 for app performance, while the others are A1. ItвЂ™s available in 32, 64, 128, 256, 512GB and 1TB capacities, but specs vary slightly across those capacities. PNYвЂ™s Pro Elite microSD card is a top all-rounder with a claimed 100MB/s read speed and 90MB/s write speed.
