Are you looking to expand the storage on your Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck, or ASUS ROG Ally? Amazon has a fantastic deal on the high-performance 512GB Samsung Pro Plus Micro SDXC card, now available for just $29.99. This deal also includes a compact USB card reader, making file transfers a breeze. Samsung is renowned for its reliable memory cards, and the Pro Plus model offers superior speeds compared to most Micro SDXC cards at this price point.

USB Card Reader Included
Originally $83.99, now save 64% at just $29.99 on Amazon. The Samsung Pro Plus is compatible with a wide range of devices that support the Micro SDXC card standard, including the Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck, and ASUS ROG Ally. With a speed rating of U3 / A2 / V30, it delivers up to 180MB/s read speeds and 130MB/s write speeds. This makes it an excellent choice for devices requiring fast and high-capacity storage, such as 4K DSLRs, action cameras, or gaming handhelds. The included USB card reader simplifies file transfers to your PC, eliminating the need for additional cables.
The card is also perfect for the Nintendo Switch and Switch OLED, which only offer 32GB and 64GB of internal storage, respectively, with some space reserved for the OS. For context, games like "Tears of the Kingdom" and "Breath of the Wild" require 16GB and 13.5GB, respectively. These games alone can fill the internal storage of the original Switch. Since the Switch has only one memory card slot, opting for the largest capacity you can afford is wise, though 512GB should be more than enough for most users.
Unfortunately, this card is not compatible with the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2, which will require the newer Micro SD Express cards to leverage its higher speed capabilities. If you're planning for the Switch 2, MicroSD Express cards are already available, albeit from limited brands and at a higher cost than standard Micro SD cards. Traditional Micro SD cards top out at 104 MB/s with the UHS-I interface, whereas MicroSD Express cards can reach speeds up to 985 MB/s using PCIe and NVMe technology.
