Silicon Power Superior Pro microSDXC UHS-I Colorful U3 256GB Card Review

Storage/Other by stefan @ 2020-07-23

The Superior Pro microSDXC UHS-I Colorful card performs well and exceeds the rated write speed in some cases; this is good news regarding 4K recording at high bitrates, but also when using the card for program installs or other types of backups. The card can be bought with capacities of up to 512GB, so we should not worry about recording very long footage with our action cameras while on vacation or during workouts.

Packaging, A Closer Look

The Superior Pro microSDXC UHS-I Card from Silicon Power is available with 64GB, 128GB, 256GB and 512GB capacities, each sporting a different color, since the series name, Colorful. This model was made to meet UHS Speed Class 3 and the UHS Video Speed Class 30 standards for 4K UHD video recording. In terms of speed rating, the card is noted to have up 100MB/s reads and up to 80MB/s writes; the speeds may differ depending on the device configuration as well.

 

The 256GB model which we have received as a sample was packed inside a simple cardboard enclosure with a small plastic compartment, where we can spot the main product, along with the microSD adapter:

 

 

 

On the back, we will note that the manufacturer has included a short product description in multiple languages, some technical details but also the product serial number and the internal code name:

 

 

 

The adapter together with the Superior Pro card can be easily removed from the transparent plastic compartment:

 

 

 

The supplied adapter does increase the compatibility of the card along multiple devices and does also feature a lock button (for not permitting writes to the card):

 

 

 

On the back of the adapter, we will spot the nine gold-plated feet:

 

 

 

The little microSDXC card does feature a catchy color scheme; here we will learn that it integrates 3D NAND technologies, but we will also find out of the total storage space and supported standards:

 

 

 

The gold-plated contact feet are available on the bottom; a factory code is also printed here:
