TEAMGROUP A2 Pro Plus Card 512GB Micro SDXC UHS-I U3 A2 V30, Read/Write up to 160/110 MB/s for Nintendo-Switch, Steam Deck, Tablets, Smartphones with Adapter TPPMSDX512GIA2V3003

This SD 512GB V30 card arrived fast and worked well.When tested, it ran at about 120/Read and 80/Write speeds. But fast enough for my application.That could be my program or reader unit since I have no way to test its calibration.Definitely a good deal for the price for that much storage and those speeds.

Bought this for my SteamDeck so I could have all my games in one place! And it's been really useful! It shows only letting me use 1.7tb which is still a ton of space just so others are aware! The size is great, and so far the speed of my installations from the steam deck is quite fast! I never thought 1TB let alone 2 TB of space could fit in such a tiny card!

I was hesitant to buy this card as I normally buy name brands such a Samsung and SanDisk. Some less known brands do not offer the speed or durability that the big brands do.Fortunately this Team Group card is a good a the big brands. The packaging and build quality is excellent. The speeds are as good as my Samsung U3 A2 V30 (make sure you get this version because the A1 versions of all cards are much slower.)The best part is that the price is significantly less than the big brands. I would enjoy the price difference while it lasts because I am certain that these cards will eventually be the same price as the others as people catch on to their quality.Pros:- excellent speed and quality- bright colors make it easy to find in case you drop it- good price for the performanceCONS:- price is increasing (but still an excellent buy even if comparable to big brands

Works great for my family's Nintendo Switch. Gave us significantly more room for games. I would buy this again if I ever needed another.

The media could not be loaded. TL:DR - a quality microSD card with great flash at a great price, the software is easy to use and install, it provides a very important useful stat but doesn’t offer much else. Like other Teamgroup microSD cards, doesn’t always play well with UHS-ii readers (at least Kingston ones anyway). A lifetime warranty is always a bonus!Video connected to this review highlights a write test for video .mp4 (2.5GB) and ~800 test photos 300KB-1MB in size and about 500KB average size.I want to preface this by saying I am very happy to see *someone* try and take S.M.A.R.T. reading seriously in the SD/MicroSD card space, a space previously reserved solely for ridiculously priced Industrial SD/MicroSD cards. I hope to see both more cards supporting S.M.A.R.T. and more customers supporting it. It can mark the difference in whether you can save your files or not and seeing how much wear is on your flash is important to knowing its longevity!Teamgroup has definitely achieved something great with their T-Create line. These cards are fast, and the NAND Flash appears to be of a consistent and high quality (see pictures for reference). The construction of the card is good, and I’m even impressed with the microSD to SD Adapter, with a nice quality to the adapter and high resolution printed on label, not just a cheap sticker.PROS:*Affordable*Fast*Quality NAND Flash*S.M.A.R.T. feature*Lifetime Warranty*Quality Construction*Nice packaging and not too hard to openCONS:*Very basic S.M.A.R.T. reporting, but way better than nothing.*microSD card’s controller doesn’t always play well with UHS-ii readers.Formatted size approximately 115GB.SPEEDS: CrystalDiskMark (4GB test size)Transcend 3.0 Reader —READ: 96.33 MB/sWRITE: 83.78 MB/sSamsung uSD 3.0 Reader —READ: 95.60 MB/sWRITE: 82.27 MB/sKingston UHS-ii Reader* —READ: 31.45-173.71 MB/s*WRITE: 93.33MB/sAll next tests are done with Transcend 3.0 USB Reader.DiskGenius Bad Sector Verification:This tests the latency of blocks and checks for damaged blocks.RESULTS: 15041 good blocks, no bad blocks.

Software:Can be downloaded from Teamgroup’s website. Easy to install. Just hit refresh and it will tell you how much life your card has. I assume it reads the amount of times the card’s NAND flash has been written to and extrapolates the expected lifespan of the card from this data.*sometimes the UHS-ii reader will read slowly, sometimes it reads at maximum speed. I’ve found this to also occur in Teamgroup’s PRO+ line. This really isn’t important for the average person however, very few readers are UHS-ii, and with the adoption of SD Express, it won’t be the future either. It could also be a problem with the Kingston UHS-ii specifically interacting with teamgroup’s lineup as well, other UHS-ii readers might work fine.

I had bought real inexpensive 1 TB micro SD cards and Got What I Paid For!. Did not lose a whole lot of money on them; they were worthless pieces of junk and inuseable. So be warned!Saw this card and diligently went through all the reviews and then others I came across on the web. I cannot comment on the phtographic aspect since my purposes were for Documents only. Whereas the inexpensive card would not complete the f ile/document transfer of 54GB; this TeamGroup SD card finished quickly within 45minutes!Checking over the transfered files/documents, there were no errors. I highly recommend this card for your file/document transfers; though, again, I cannot comment on the photographic usage of this card. More times than not, U truly get what U pay for; and in this case the higher - though affordable- price was worth the effort and time.

Cards work well. I’ve had them now for a year in my outdoor cameras. One failed, team group had sent a replacement. I have not tried the replacement to date.
