Integral has announced what is the world’s first 512 GB microSD card for smartphones, tablets, cameras, and other devices. Until this week, the highest-capacity card, 400 GB, was sold by SanDisk. Integral’s new offering, called the 512 GB microSDXC V10 UHS-I U1 card, includes Class 10 high-speed video transfers for capturing HD video and writing it directly to the memory card.
The card is robust, meaning it is waterproof, and it ships with an SD card reader so it may be used with PCs. Most of today’s flagship Android devices support cards up to 2 TB, though no such cards yet exist.
Integral said its new 512 GB microSD card will reach stores in February, but it did not reveal pricing. SanDisk’s 400 GB card retails for $250.
