With sports and adventure enthusiasts, frequent travelers and tourists, and creative mobile owners taking and uploading more cinematic and high resolution videos, storage in their mobile devices as well as transferring and uploading those video files has become a valid concern. Kingston Digital has announced during CES 2015 that they are introducing an Ultra-High Spped microsSD that can be a solution to that problem.

The UHS-1 microSD is a Speed Class 3, 90MB/s read and 80MB/s write card actually exceeds the specification release of the SD Association, which is still at 30MB/s read/write. But with this new microSD card, smartphones, tablets and cameras can directly record cinema-quality Full HD (1080p), Ultra HD (2160p), and 4K2K videos on to the card. You will also be able to view the 4K2K videos without buffering or stopping in the middle. Because of its specs, you will also be able to transfer or upload files faster, particularly when you use a USB 3.0 card reader.

It also claims that the SDCA3 is highly durable, which will be important when you’re using your gadget to take videos of sports or adventure activities where there might be cause for damage for ordinary cards. But the Kingston UHS-1 is protected from water, shock/vibration, x-ray, and extreme temperature. Or you should hope so because otherwise, you wasted a full hour of taking videos of that ski or wakeboarding run if your card gets easily damaged.

The Kingston SDCA3 card can be purchased as a stand-alone card or with an SD card adapter. It has 16GB, 32GB, or 64GB capacity options. It also has a lifetime warranty and free technical support. Pricing details have not been released yet.
