Nintendo has just made the next-generation Switch console official, and Lexar is already reminding you that its world’s first 1TB microSDXC Express Card for use with Switch 2 is shipping. But I am pretty sure the Pokémon co-branded memory card with SanDisk should work just as well. Anyways, in case you are prepping for the imminent arrival of the Switch 2, this may be worthy of your consideration.
This little card packs a serious punch, with PCIe technology delivering read speeds up to 900MB/s and write speeds up to 600MB/s. That means your games load four times faster, and downloads won’t take forever. With 1TB of storage, you can stash a massive library of AAA titles without constantly deleting old ones. The card is also backward-compatible with UHS-I and UHS-II devices, though at UHS-I speeds.
Lexar includes a limited lifetime warranty and lifetime access to its recovery tool, in case you ever accidentally delete something important. Available now, the 1TB version costs USD 199.99, with 512GB and 256GB options priced at USD 99.99 and USD 49.99, respectively.
