Transcend Going for Speed

Storage and memory experts Transcend is announcing the launch of their new 330S microSD card series. It improves upon their previously launched 300S line, delivering high-performance storage for mobile and compact devices.

The 330S microSDXC cards deliver a minimum random reads of 4,000 IOPS with random writes of 2,000 IOPS. That means it meats the A2 Application Performance Class standard for Android phones. So whether gaming on a smartphone or a handheld console like the Nintendo Switch, the 330S would be an ideal storage option.

This new 330S microSD card also meets UHS Speed Class 3 (U3) and Video Class 30 (V30) standards. It has sequential read speeds of up to 100MB/s with write speeds of up to 85MB/s. So it can be used when filming 4K UHD video as well.

According to the company, these new high-performance microSD cards are able to withstand temperature extremes. Specifically up to -25°C below or up to 85°C. That is on top of being waterproof, shock and vibration proof, and X-ray proof.

How Much are These Transcend 33S MicroSD Cards?

Transcend is offering the 330S in either 64GB or 128GB capacities with a 5-year warranty coverage. The 128GB version is actually available now in some EU stores for  €28.90.
