Reviewed: Strontium Nitro Plus UHS-3 microSD (64GB)
Almost a year after we have started benchmarking all the microSD cards, today, we have yet another card to add to the benchmark to share with you guys. Today, we have a card from a local (Singapore company), Strontium. You may have seen this brand around town (Giant supermarket) and more but, you may not have seen much benchmarks for this. Well, let us present to you their highest-tier card today!

In conclusion:
Overall as we can see, the speed of the card is one of the faster we have seen though falling short of the up to 95MB/s and 85MB/s rating in many circumstances. Theoretically speaking, the card should be more than sufficient to record 4K videos easily although looking at the write graph, we aren’t too sure what is prompting a sudden decrease of speed towards the end of the test. On the other hand, random write and read is not the fastest per say, though it is pretty much similar to other cards. Nonetheless, the speeds are as follows:
READ – 81092 KB/s
WRITE – 66572 KB/s
Whilst not exactly the fastest available, it does offer some credible value and option to those looking to get a card conveniently, considering that this is even sold in Giant Supermarkets. Backed with lifetime warranty, you can take a look at this card, especially for use for data transfer or recording photos or videos. However, if you are looking to use it for use for mobile uses, such as on the mobile phone or on as a OS/program installation medium, you might want to consider other cards with better random performance.
