Hello all! Seems like micro sd card prices have been floating up slowly all year. Usually pick up a Samsung pro plus or a sandisk extreme card once Anbernic, Ayn Miyoo etc release a new internesting handheld. Unfortunately, prices have gotten a bit steep for storage. Instead, been trying out other brands as they seem to be priced more competitively (Amazon US anyway). Curious what everyone’s current go to is?

Latest card, been working fine in the RG556 with Silent Hill 3. Appears to be a rebranded Samsung card as the write speeds are higher using a reader included with a Pro plus card. Priced $34.99 on Amazon us so not bad at all.

SABRENT Rocket V30 A2 512GB MicroSDXC Memory Card R100MB/s W30MB/s (SD-MQ30-512)

    For value I like silicon power cards. I use them in my handhelds and my dash cams and they have all been solid.

    Samsung Evo cards are really good too, I use one in the steam deck. Russ from Retro Game Corp usually posts when they go on sale on Amazon.

    Going to rep PNY here. Great quality, on par with Samsung and Sandisk, but usually only 2/3rds the price. I’m using a PNY 512 GB U3/A2 card in my Steam deck and it’s been great.
