- Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2024Style: PRO Plus - up to 180 MB/sCapacity: 512GBVerified PurchaseMy husband got me a RedTiger dashcam with a rear-front cam due to continued harassment from a neighbor and her husband. Having a reliable system is a must for my peace of mind. This SD card works perfectly, with no glitches, and records both front and rear a total of approximately 32 hours of uninterrupted time (I leave it plugged in non-stop), which is a nice break so I don't have to rush to download any needed footage.
I accidentally pulled the SD card while it was recording; the 1-min file got corrupted but the card is fine. Price-wise, I paid a little less than others I looked at, but the image quality, storage, and functionality are exactly what I expected and well worth the price I paid for the 512GB.
Also, it handles extreme temperatures. I'm in OK, and the temps outside reach 103 F. The dashcam screen starts flickering when it gets too hot inside the car, but upon checking the recorded files on the card, the image is clear with no issues.
If I remember correctly, the SD card needed to be a specific type for dashcam compatibility; I did not look at the specs but this card is obviously compatible with my dashcam, which is set up to automatically overwrite the SD card for storage. I've had it for about 2 months and so far, so good.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2025Style: PRO Plus - up to 180 MB/sCapacity: 512GBVerified PurchaseI've tested a wide range of microSD cards over the years, but the Samsung PRO Plus 512GB stands out as one of the most reliable and high-performing options available. From 4K video recording to gaming and mobile storage, this card delivers consistent speed and durability, making it an excellent choice for professionals and everyday users alike.
Real-World Performance
I put this card through its paces in multiple devices, and it exceeded expectations in every scenario:
🔹 4K Video Recording: Installed in my DJI Mini 4 Pro, the card handled 4K 60fps video flawlessly—no dropped frames, no stuttering, just smooth and stable footage. I also used it with my GoPro Hero 12 on a snowboarding trip, where it kept up with high-action shots without skipping a beat.
🔹 Mobile & File Transfers: In my Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, I transferred over 100GB of 4K videos and high-resolution photos, and the speeds were impressive. With read speeds up to 180MB/s and write speeds around 130MB/s, I didn’t have to wait long for large files to move—something I’ve struggled with on cheaper microSD cards. The A2 rating also made a noticeable difference in app performance and load times.
🔹 Gaming & Storage: When tested in a Steam Deck and Nintendo Switch, the card handled large game files effortlessly. No lag, no stuttering—just smooth gameplay and quick load times. With 512GB of storage, I didn’t have to constantly delete old files to make room for new ones.
Pros & Cons
✅ Pros:
✔ High-Speed Performance – Read speeds up to 180MB/s, write speeds around 130MB/s—perfect for 4K recording and high-res file transfers.
✔ Reliable for High-End Devices – Works seamlessly with GoPro, DJI drones, flagship smartphones, gaming consoles, and more.
✔ Massive Storage – 512GB capacity means fewer worries about running out of space.
✔ Durability & Ruggedness – Survived freezing temperatures on a mountain and even a coffee spill without any data loss.
✔ Optimized for Gaming & Apps – The A2 rating ensures fast app loading and smooth performance in portable gaming consoles.
❌ Cons:
✖ Not UHS-II – If you’re a professional video editor working with 8K RAW footage, you may need an even faster card.
✖ Premium Price – While not the cheapest option, the performance and reliability justify the cost.
Final Verdict: Is It Worth It?
If you need a high-speed, high-capacity, and ultra-reliable microSD card, the Samsung PRO Plus 512GB is one of the best options available. Whether you're a content creator, drone pilot, mobile power user, or gamer, this card delivers exceptional performance with no compromises. It's an investment in speed, storage, and durability—one that won’t let you down when you need it most.
✅ Highly recommended for anyone looking for a top-tier microSD card.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2025Style: PRO Plus - up to 180 MB/sCapacity: 128GBVerified PurchaseI’ve been using this microSD card with my DJI Action and it has performed flawlessly. I haven’t missed a single moment of recording, even in high-motion or 4K footage. The read and write speeds are excellent, and it's perfectly suited for Full HD and 4K UHD video. It keeps up with the demands of action filming without lag or buffering. The 128 GB capacity gives me plenty of space to record long sessions, and for the price, it’s a great deal considering the performance. If you’re using a GoPro, DJI, or any other high-performance device, this card is a solid and reliable choice.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2025Style: PRO Plus - up to 180 MB/sCapacity: 512GBVerified PurchaseI recently purchased the SAMSUNG PRO Plus microSD Memory Card, and I am incredibly impressed with its performance! I use it primarily for my Trimui Smart Pro handheld gaming console and it has been a game changer. The read and write speeds are excellent, allowing for fast file transfers and smooth game play with no issues at all.
The build quality is top-notch which gives me peace of mind when I take it on the go. I’ve used other microSD cards in the past, but this one definitely stands out in terms of speed and reliability.
If you’re looking for a high-performance memory card for photography, video recording, or just extra storage for your devices, I highly recommend the SAMSUNG PRO Plus. It’s worth every penny!
- Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2025Style: PRO Plus - up to 180 MB/sCapacity: 1TBVerified PurchaseProduct is amazing! First time around I bought it. The chip was cracked (micro SD card) so I had to refund it. Bought another one without getting the refund first, because I really needed a bigger size card. Installed the new one I got and it works perfectly!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2025Style: PRO Plus - up to 180 MB/sCapacity: 512GBVerified PurchaseThe SAMSUNG PRO Plus 512GB microSD is a solid performer for the Nintendo Switch. It offers fast transfer speeds (up to 180 MB/s) and plenty of space for games, updates, and screenshots. Loading times are smooth, and installation is quick. The included adapter is a nice bonus. Docked one star because the real-world speed is a bit lower than advertised, but overall, it’s a great value and highly reliable for gaming use.
