UHS-I memory cards are high-performance SD and microSD cards designed to provide faster read/write speeds than standard cards. These products are used to store photos, videos, and other data in cameras, smartphones, action cams, drones and portable devices. Shoppers choose UHS-I cards when they need reliable sustained write rates for continuous shooting, Full HD or 4K video recording (depending on model), or faster file transfers to a computer. The selection includes different capacity sizes and speed class ratings so users can match a card to device requirements and workflow. This page lists available UHS-I memory cards from various manufacturers offered by the store for purchase and delivery.
Use cases of UHS-I memory card
Common situations where UHS-I cards are used:
- Photography: burst and continuous shooting with DSLRs and mirrorless cameras.
- Video recording: Full HD and some 4K-capable cameras and action cameras (check device requirements).
- Mobile devices: expanding storage on smartphones and tablets that support microSD UHS-I.
- Drones and action cams: recording high-bitrate footage while maintaining stable writes.
- Data transfer and backup: faster file transfer speeds to readers and computers.
Types of UHS-I memory card
UHS-I cards come in common form factors and classifications:
- Form factors: SD (standard size) and microSD (small form factor) to fit different devices.
- Speed classes: UHS Speed Class (U1, U3) and Video Speed Class (V10, V30, etc.) indicating minimum sustained write performance.
- Capacity ranges: typical options from 16GB up to 512GB or higher, depending on manufacturer models.
- Performance tiers: cards optimized for read-heavy tasks (fast transfer to PC) or for sustained write workloads (video recording).
Key features to consider
- Speed rating: check U1/U3 and V-class ratings to ensure the card meets device recording needs.
- Capacity: choose enough storage for your shooting sessions, accounting for file sizes at chosen resolution and bitrate.
- Compatibility: confirm the device supports UHS-I and the card form factor (SD or microSD).
- Brand and warranty: select reputable brands and review warranty terms offered by the manufacturer.
- Durability: some cards offer temperature, water, shock and x-ray resistance—useful for outdoor or travel use.
- Transfer speed vs sustained write: differentiate peak read speeds (useful for copying) from minimum sustained write speeds (critical for recording).
How to choose UHS-I memory card
Choosing the right UHS-I card involves matching card specs to device and usage:
- Identify device requirements: check your camera, drone or phone manual for supported speed and capacity limits.
- Match speed class to use: pick U3 or V30+ for high-bitrate video, U1 or V10 for standard Full HD recording and general use.
- Pick capacity based on file sizes: estimate storage needs from photo RAW files or video bitrate and duration.
- Consider transfer workflow: if you frequently move files to a computer, prioritize higher read speeds for faster transfers.
- Buy from known manufacturers: compare published read/write figures and warranty support rather than relying solely on capacity labels.
- Check for adapters and readers: for microSD cards, ensure you have an SD adapter or compatible reader for devices that require it.
