– UHS-1 Class 1: At least 10MB/second, ideal for 1080p video.
– UHS-1 Class 3: At least 30MB/second, recommended for video up to 4K.
This minimum speed is usually printed on the microSD card in the form of a special logo, such as the letter “C” with the number 10 for Class 10, and the letter “U” with the number 1 or 3 for UHS-1. You may also find an “I” or “II” label indicating the speed of the UHS bus.
3. Make sure that the MicroSD is compatible with Android devices
In order for the microSD to work well and last a long time, choose a product from a trusted brand to reduce the risk of damage and data loss.
