Review: Strontium Nitro 566x UHS-I microSD (64GB)
The Strontium Nitro is not as fast as the
Nitro Plus variant, but it does still pack a punch with its included accessories and reasonable pricing. This card, is built on cheaper TLC instead of the MLC found it its faster brother – Nitro Plus.

In summary:
Overall, we did get caught off guard by the pretty reasonable performance of the card – pretty consistently clocking over 30MB/s for write performance. Whilst the read did not exceed the stated performance (85MB/s), it does clock close to it with 81-82MB/s in read. Though the random performance had not been that impressive, it is still reasonably average. Nonetheless, here’s the speeds:
Code:
READ – 86,781 KB/s
WRITE – 34,814 KB/s
All in all, Strontium has shared with us that this is their best selling card in the previous IT show and we can clearly see why. With an above average sequential speed, average random speed but relatively cheaper price and bundled with a microUSB OTG microSD adapter and a lifetime warranty, this is one card one can consider.
