The Ultra microSDXC UHS-I Premium Edition conforms to the SDXC Class 10 UHS-I specification and according to Sandisk the card should be able to achieve a read speed of up to 90MB/s. The technology used to make the high data density possible is, according to the manufacturer, similar to that of the 128GB memory card it announced last year.

The 56% in storage capacity should make it useful for multimedia applications such as storage of UltraHD video. The 200GB MicroSD card should become available in the second quarter of this year with an MSRP of $399.99.
