Lexar Professional SILVER Series 1066x microSDXC Review

The humble memory card is as ubiquitous these days as electronic devices in general, and indeed most of them contain a memory card. Digital cameras, phones, tablets, even things like drones and dash cams all rely on memory cards. The Lexar Professional Silver Series microSDXC memory card takes the nearly universal MicroSD format and combines with speeds of up to 160MB/s reads and 120MB/s writes for your most demanding applications. This type of speed, of course, comes with all the Class 10, U3, V30, and A2 ratings for peace of mind no matter your challenge. Need to record 4K UHD video on your drone? No problem. Need fast loading apps on your Android smartphone? All-day long. Need something that can handle harsh environments in your Go-Pro? Lexar has you covered.

PC Test Bench would like to thank Lexar for providing us with a sample of the Silver Series MicroSD card to check out.
