Samsung Electronics just unveiled a brand new MLC NAND flash solution which is the PRO Plus 128GB microSD card. This is a very high speed storage solution for consumers worldwide and it's very useful for people who use drones, action cameras or premium smartphones. The release of Samsung's newest MLC NAND flash solution might suggest that the South Korean giant is making some plans in this area, and it makes sense given the recent rumors on how the Galaxy S7 might feature a microSD card slot. The recent PRO Plus 128GB microSD cards are the newest addition to their PRO Plus lineup which they initially launched this May under the 32GB and 64GB versions. This new microSD card features UHS-I Speed Class 3 (u3) and Speed Class 10 support which will blow its users away with insane transfer speeds: 95MB/s and 90MB/s for the U10. Here's what Un-Soo Kim, Senior Vice President of Branded product Marketing, Memory Business at Samsung Electronics had to say:
We are seeing a fast increase in 4K UHD video recording and playback, and therefore a growing need for higher memory storage volume and faster transfer speeds. The introduction of our PRO Plus128GB microSD delivers on Samsung’s commitment to create best-in-class memory cards that meet the rapidly evolving needs of today’s consumers, as well as strengthens our leadership in branded memory products.
You can get the Pro Plus 128GB flash memory straight off Samsung's own website for $199.99 and it is coming to over 50 countries worldwide. Source
