Final Thoughts and Conclusion

If you have a need or desire to have one of the fastest microSDXC cards available, there are only a handful of choices. The SD Association came up with the UHS-I Speed Class 3 rating to support 4K2K video recording, which requires a minimum of 30MB/s write speed. Kingston has released their first card with the latest UHS-I Speed Class 3 rating, featuring read speeds up to 90MB/s and write speeds up to 80MB/s.
