Samsung Pro Plus Specs, Features Include New Powerful 128GB, Superfast MicroSD Card, Waterproofed Exterior

Samsung Pro Plus 128GB was recently unveiled to the public with a massive and powerful storage capacity. According to Samsung's estimates, it can record 3 hours and 50 minutes of 4K video or 16 hours and 20 minutes FullHD video with thousands of photos and MP3s with fast transfer speed.

According to International Business Times, in the advent of using 4K UHD video recording and playback, there is a lot more need to have massive storage in other Samsung devices. At the moment, what they could offer is the Pro Plus edition which allows the users to store large amount of files.

Based from the features stated in the source, the Samsung Pro Plus 128GB can handle rates of 95MB/s and has a write speed of 90MB/s. It can also handle pressure in terms of both increasing and decreasing temperature as the device is used for longer hours and during winter times [approximately -13 Fahrenheit and 185 degree Fahrenheit] and is protected from water with its IEC 60529, IPX7 feature. Aside from that, the device can also be protected from any form of X-rays.

For those who are currently using Samsung Galaxy S6 or Galaxy Note 5, Samsung Pro Plus can't be used due to the unsupported feature -- no expandable slot. Perhaps, the Samsung Galaxy S7 will do for its expandable memory option.

Beta News specified the exact recording time duration which the 128GB microSD could support. The report stated that it could record up to 3 hours and 50 minutes of 4K video or 16 hours and 20 minutes of FullHD video. Samsung's estimation added the capacity of the Pro Plus to store 10,000 photos and 30,000 MP3s.

Samsung SVP of Branded Product Marketing, Memory Business, Un-Soo Kim said, "We are seeing a fast increase in 4K UHD video recording and playback, and therefore a growing need for higher memory storage volume and faster transfer speeds."

He added, "The introduction of our Pro Plus 128GB microSD delivers on Samsung's commitment to create best-in-class memory cards that meet the rapidly evolving needs of today's consumers, as well as strengthens our leadership in branded memory products."

Samsung Pro Plus 128GB microSD will be made available for 50 markets including US, Europe, and China. There is no fixed pricing announced yet in the moment.
