Samsung has announced the EVO Plus 256GB MicroSD card, offering the highest capacity for any microSD card. The mammoth capacity is made possible owing to Samsung’s V-NAND technology and the company said it offers read and write speed of up to 95MB/s and 90MB/s respectively.
The company says that it could record up to 12 hours of 4K video or 33 hours of Full HD video. The card will alternatively take 55,200 photos or 23,500 songs, theoretically speaking of course.
