Basic Unboxing 101 –
Definitely keep an eye out for this brand.
1tb of micro SD card storage. Nuff said! After my last 2 roundabout who-hah, with several Samsung micro SD cards failing on me or not registering. I decided to go with this brand instead. Boy, I wasn’t wrong.Zippy speed for both read and write, and literally almost 1000gb worth of storage to fill to the brim! This is definitely worth a buy over Samsung SD cards. PNY was easy to use, using a third-party adapter that has a usb c end to it.The adapter itself works like it supposed to. Unlike Samsung’s.

Fast and Reliable
I used this memory card in my laptop for auxiliary storage while processing a very large quantity data, and the product performed admirably. Speeds in real-world usage matched advertised limits. Very pleased.

Great for Nintendo Switch
1) Great price for such a large amount of space.2) I bought the 1.5 tb micro sd cards on sale. Would buy at full price.3) Stores all of my Nintendo Switch games in one location.4) Seems fast enough for what I use it for. I have not speed test the card.5) Arrived quickly and undamaged.

Less than expected performance
This review is for the 1.5 TB variant of the PNY PRO Elite Prime microSD card.The first thing I did when receiving this was run it through H2testw (as I do with all flash storage) to make sure it is legitimately the size I paid for, and I’m pleased to say that all the capacity is real. The average write speed was 40MB/s and read was 155 MB/s over the course of 6 or so hours. Not stellar, but write speeds do drop as capacity fills.The next test was CrystalDiskMark and that averaged 155 MB/s write and 179 MB/s read. IOPS results are in the review photos.Overall a pretty nice microSD card, very speedy and should last me a good while. I was not able to get the claimed read speed of 200 MB/s out of it so I cannot give it 5 stars.

Great for Extra Storage
This PNY 256GB microSD card is fantasticâblazing fast speeds for read (200MB/s) and write (150MB/s) make it perfect for 4K video, gaming, or heavy app use. Reliable, durable, and great storage capacity. Definitely a top-notch choice for anyone needing high-performance flash memory! The only downside is that I needed 220 mb/s to record 4k at 60fps on my Iphone 16 pro, so I will buy another with a higher write speed.

Seems to be a good option.
This seems to be a relatively new product on the market, the only other 1.5TB Micro SD Card being the SanDisk from last year, and it seems to be quite swell.I can’t really attest to the longevity of this product, considering it is new and I am using it personally as a storage extension for my macbook, but it does have fairly good read-and-write speeds from my experience, and I’ve been able to store at least 200GB of files already without any problems.The read/writes do slow down after a period of time (the speeds shown in the picture are from a 5gb stress test), but otherwise, as long as this micro sd card lasts, I am quite satisfied with my purchase.
