Manufacturer description

Micro Center's Premium 512GB microSDXC card is built for people who ran out of room on a Nintendo Switch, action camera, or drone and want capacity without a flagship price. Sold under the INLAND brand, it lists read speeds up to 95 MB/s and write speeds up to 80 MB/s, which is enough headroom for continuous 4K UHD video capture thanks to its UHS-I U3 and V30 video speed class ratings. The A1 application class rating matters if you are loading games or apps directly from the card: it targets faster random reads, so Switch titles and Android apps launch off the card rather than crawling.

SpecPicks Verdict

SpecPicks scored INLAND Micro Center Premium 512GB microSDXC Card using a rating × review-volume × price-fit model applied to published specs and reviews across the external storage category. INLAND's external storage lineup sits within the broader category mid-tier; price and specs are the deciding factors over brand loyalty here. Judge it on the specification table and the price rather than on sentiment: check the figures that decide your use case, then put it side-by-side with two or three close alternatives in the Compare tool before clicking through.

Common buyer scenarios for external storage of this kind: matching it to an existing build, replacing a failing part, or upgrading from a previous-generation equivalent. Check the spec table below against your current setup — particularly socket / form-factor / power-rating fields — and confirm compatibility on the retailer's listing before purchase. Prices and stock are set by the retailer and may have moved since this page was last updated.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this card work with the Nintendo Switch?

Yes. It is a microSDXC card, and the Switch needs a system update before it will read microSDXC media. Check the Nintendo Switch official site for the current requirement.

How fast is this microSD card?

Up to 95 MB/s read and 80 MB/s write. Those figures come from the manufacturer's internal tests and will vary with your host device, reader, and interface.

Can it record 4K video?

Yes. It carries UHS-I speed class 3 (U3) and video speed class 30 (V30) ratings, which is the sustained-write tier that 4K UHD and Full HD capture require.

Why does my device show less than 512GB of space?

Formatting overhead. microSDXC cards ship in exFAT, and the file system plus reserved blocks consume part of the raw capacity, so usable space is always below the labeled figure.

What is included and what warranty does it carry?

The card ships with a full-size SD adapter for laptops and standard card readers, and it is covered by a 3-year limited warranty.
