Milpitas, CA, February 27, 2017 - Lexar, a leading global brand of flash memory
products, today announced the new 256GB capacity Lexar(®) Professional 1000x
microSDXC((TM)) UHS-II (U3) memory card. Designed for sports camcorders,
tablets, and smartphones, the Professional 1000x microSDXC UHS-II card has read
transfer speeds up to 150MB per second and write speeds up to 90MB/s. The 256GB
capacity card is also verified to be compatible with GoPro(®) cameras. Having
completed the 'Works with GoPro' verification process, the Lexar Professional
1000x microSD cards completed a rigorous testing process, and are capable of
achieving optimal performance and compatibility with GoPro products.
"GoPro customers generate a lot of content and crave a seamless recording and
playback experience," said Adam Silver, senior director of accessories and
developer solutions at GoPro. "Lexar's new high-capacity card, the 256GB
Professional 1000x microSDXC, has been verified by the Works with GoPro program
by demonstrating great performance and we are glad to welcome it into the
program."
The new 256GB card offers the speed and capacity needed for all adventure
seekers and adrenaline junkies to capture, transfer, and share more content on
the go. With UHS Speed Class 3 (U3), this card is ideal for high-speed capture
of extended lengths of 4K, 3D, and 1080p full-HD video. Capable of recording up
to 9 hours of 4K video(2), this card is also perfect for shooting action with an
aerial camera, since they require multiple memory cards for extended use. The
new card comes with a microSD((TM)) UHS-II USB 3.0 reader to dramatically
accelerate workflow with high-speed file transfer up to 150MB/s(3), getting
content innovators back to capturing the action faster.
The Lexar Professional 1000x microSD cards also make it easy for tablet and
smartphone users to quickly and easily download or save media files. With the
new 256GB capacity card, users can store more than 36 hours of HD video, 67600
photos or 58100 songs.(2)
"I use microSD cards in my drones, and the Lexar 256GB Professional 1000x
microSD card will enable me to capture large amounts of imagery and high
definition video without having to change cards on location. That's huge!" said
Chris McLennan, Lexar Elite and professional travel, wildlife, adventure, and
aerial photographer. "I also use Lexar microSD cards in my Android phone as
storage for photo and video content. It's great to be able to show clients
previews of workflow and images I've captured without having to carry my laptop
everywhere."
For versatility, the Lexar Professional 1000x microSD UHS-II cards are backwards
compatible with UHS-I devices. All Professional line memory cards include a
lifetime copy of downloadable Image Rescue(®) software to recover most photo and
select video files, even if they've been erased or the card has been
corrupted.(4) The cards are backed by expert technical support and come with a
limited lifetime warranty. The USB 3.0 reader is backed by a one year limited
warranty. The new card capacity will be available in Q1 of 2017 with an MSRP of
£357.99. The Lexar Professional 1000x microSDXC/microSDHC((TM)) cards are also
available in the following capacities: 32GB, 64GB, and 128GB. To offer an even
broader range of affordable performance options, the 256GB capacity High-
Performance 633x microSDXC UHS-I card will move to UHS Speed Class 1 (U1) in Q1
of 2017 with an MSRP of £286.99. High-Performance 633x microSDXC/microSDHC cards
