In April this year, Samsung announced 1TB Evo Select and 1TB Pro Plus microSD cards in the United States, the first microSD cards from the brand with one terabyte capacity. Back then, the company said that it would launch the two memory cards (make them available to purchase) later this year. Well, just like the tech giant had promised, it has launched the Evo Select 1TB and the Pro Plus 1TB microSD cards in the US.Summarize in one-click with Galaxy AI
In the press release, Samsung says that it has priced the 1TB Evo Select at $131.99 and the 1TB Evo Pro Plus at $153.99. However, the company is selling both memory cards at a massive discount on its official online store for the US. The brand has listed the Evo Select 1TB at $89.99 and the Pro Plus 1TB at $119.99.
The read and write speeds of the 1TB Evo Select are 160MB/s and 120MB/s respectively. Whereas, read and write speeds for the 1TB Pro Plus are 180MB/s and 130MB/s respectively. Just like most other memory cards from Samsung, the two new models are resistant to water, high temperatures, X-rays, magnetic fields, drops, and wear. They come with U3, A2, and V30 speed classes and a 10-year limited warranty.
