Best MicroSD Card Deals: Prices Starting as Low as $14
We’ve compiled all the best microSD card bargains available so you can snag memory cards for all of your devices at big discounts.
It’s almost hard to believe that it wasn’t all that long ago that even the most expensive memory cards on the market could only handle a few gigabytes of data. These days, you can fit an entire terabyte of storage in card that’s no bigger than the tip of your finger, and pick smaller-capacity cards for just a few bucks apiece.
As you can probably tell from the name, microSD cards are an even smaller version of the standard SD cards used by most digital cameras. They’re primarily used in phones and tablets, where size is a major factor, and it never hurts to have a few extras on hand. And right now, you’ll find plenty of these tiny memory cards on sale with big discounts. We’ve rounded up some of the best deals on microSD cards out there below, and we’ll continue to update this page as offers come and go. Be sure to check back often to make sure you’re getting the best price available.

SanDisk
SanDisk’s Extreme series is built to withstand harsh conditions, so they’re ideal if you’re looking for a memory card for your GoPro or another action camera. This card is resistant to water, shock, extreme temperatures and even X-rays. Beyond its durability, this card boasts some impressive specs. It has read speeds of up to 160 megabytes per second, and write speeds of up to 90MBps for fast shooting, plus a respectable 512GB of storage. This is one of the best overall values you’ll find out there at the moment.
Andrew Hoyle/CNET
With a substantial 1TB of storage, this SanDisk microSD has the largest capacity you’ll find on this list. It has all the same specs of the 512GB model above, but with double the storage, and is a solid value at over half off its usual price. It also comes with standard SD card adapter.
SanDisk
Whether you have the original Switch, the Lite version or the new OLED, you’re going to want some extra storage for your console.SanDisk makes microSD cards licensed by Nintendo specifically for the Switch, and you can pick up this 256GB Super Mario-themed one for just $28 right now at Amazon.
Lexar
Considering how many devices can be improved with a microSD, there’s a good chance you’ll want to pick up more than one. Right now at Amazon, you can get this three-pack of 32GB Lexar cards for just under $5 per card. True, 32GB isn’t a lot of storage in this day and age, but that’s still enough to hold about 1,500 pictures or about three and a half hours of HD video.
SanDisk
The SanDisk Ultra is a less expensive alternative to the more rugged Extreme series listed above. It boasts read and transfer speeds of up to 120MBps and can capture and store full HD video.
SanDisk
Sometimes it makes more sense to invest in a single microSD card that you can reuse over and over, rather than several different cards. This 128GB SanDisk is designed for maximum longevity, and can record and re-record for up to 120,000 hours. It’s also fairly durable with protection against extremes, water, shock, and x-rays, and boasts read speeds of up to 100MBps.
Samsung
This Samsung microSD only has half the storage capacity of the 512GB SanDisk Extreme listed above, but it also costs less than half the price, and is more durable. This 256GB chip is protected against water, shock, drops and temperatures, as well as magnets and X-rays. It’s designed to capture 4K UHD video and boasts transfer speeds of up to 130MBps.
Samsung/CNET
With read/write speeds up to 160/120MB/s and 512GB of storage, you’ll have plenty of space for 4K video, high-performance games and other files on this card. Plus, it’s protected from water, extreme temps, x-rays and magnets, making it durable enough for all of your adventures.

Chrome Autofill Now Supports Passport, Driver’s License and Vehicle Info
Soon, you’ll never need to remember anything ever again.
Computer users are accustomed to web browsers autofilling everything from names and addresses to credit card numbers. Now, Google Chrome is adding new enhanced autofill options that allow users to automatically populate fields for passports, driver’s licenses, and their vehicle’s license plate or VIN, Google said in a blog post on Monday.
Desktop users must choose to turn on the feature, which is called enhanced autofill. Otherwise, it stays off. To turn it on, open Chrome, and at the top right of your browser, select more, then settings, then autofill and passwords. Finally, choose enhanced autofill and turn it in.
Google says Chrome now can «better understand complex forms and varied formatting requirements, improving accuracy across the web.» The company also says that enhanced autofill will be «private and secure.»
This enhanced autofill update is available in all languages, and more data options will be supported in the coming months.
A representative for Google said the company had no additional comment.

Chrome is a critical component in Google’s business. The web browser, currently the most popular in the world with a 73% market share, according to GlobalStats, provides the company with valuable user data that it uses to sell advertising. Advertising is how Google makes the majority of its revenues. New features help keep users loyal to Chrome, making it more difficult for them to switch to other browsers, including those from companies like Perplexity and OpenAI.
