Recently bought a new phone which supports external storage so have been on the lookout for a 128gb card to take advantage of the slot. This seems to be the best priced one I could find and may be useful for one or two of you on here. Not bad transfer speeds. Here's the specs:
-Up to 80MB/s transfer speed.
-Micro SDXC Class 10 (Micro Secure Digital eXtended Capacity).
-UHS-I / UHS-1 (Ultra High Speed 1), Class 1 controller.
-exFAT file system (developed by Microsoft).
-The SDXC Adapter supplied provides a massive increase in the versatility of the microSDXC card, now it can work in thousands of SDXC Card compatible digital cameras, camcorders, card readers and laptops.
-Also comes with a 5 year warranty.
It was a tossup between the two for me, and I ended up going for the one that I posted. They seem to be essentially the same, but the packaging looked a little more premium, which made me feel like I was getting an ever so slightly better deal!

Probably the appropriate choice. Integral seem quite happy to overstate the 25MBps write speed on the UP specsheet, but choose to omit the write speed on the "standard" specsheet.

I'm surprised this hasn't already gone hot. Am I correct in thinking this is the cheapest price a 128gb micro SD has reached? (except for the one on amazon that went for £22, but most people were not able to get).

Can I ask what Adaptor you're using - a 'Nifty' drive?

Would this be any good to use in the Linx Light 10, please? (see the Sainsburys deal at £49 on here).
Thanks

No it hasn't. This is a different card which MyMemory were selling at £49.99 when the other 128GB micro SDXC card deal(s) was posted. The only other 128GB UltimaPro deal is a full size card.

Is there any point going for Ultima Pro X for faster write speed for tablets or is 25MB/s enough for playing games?

Can this be used for the Kindle Fire 5th Gen (2015)?

Are these rubbish then? A load of people keep saying that they can't write more than 65gbs on these.

i've had no problem writing more than 65gb so far, currently at 90gb, so should be fine

That's correct.
"The reason has to do with math and marketing.
Humans think about numbers in base 10, the decimal numeral system, because we have 10 fingers and 10 toes. That’s why the parts of numbers are called “digits” — just like the parts of our hands and feet.
Computers, on the other hand, think in base 2, the binary numeral system.
Herein lies the root of the issue. The “brilliant” marketing gurus at data storage companies decided early on that all their products should be marketed in the decimal system, since that’s what consumers understand.
Therefore, one megabyte on their products is equal to 1,000,000 bytes, and one gigabyte is equal to 1,000,000,000 bytes. To a computer, however, a megabyte is 1,048,576 bytes and a gigabyte is 1,073,741,824 bytes.
Thus, for each gigabyte advertised in base 10, you’re actually receiving about 70 megabytes less than a gigabyte in base 2.
Take a close look at the box your hard drive or memory card came in, and you’ll notice asterisks. Look for the fine print, and you’ll see a disclaimer stating that the figures are stated in base 10."
Also there will be a hidden partition for your device to use for system files, etc.....and your 116Gb is what's left !

It's same price on amazon.co.uk now, probably more safe.

I bought Integral Ultima Pro 128 GB Class 10 Micro SDXC Memory Card with Adapter directly from amazon and when using SD Insight it detects it as Netcom Technology (HK) Ltd. Also it says the size is 129GB and the most I can get from this card is 20 write and 65 read.
Is this a fake?
