What is a memory card?
Memory cards are flash-based storage and are usually thin and lightweight. You can insert the memory card into the device's built-in slot using a memory card reader, an SD card reader, or a similar adapter.
Memory cards store data on a variety of portable devices, such as smartphones, cameras and handheld game consoles, and some can even be paired with drones. The simplicity of these storage devices makes them ideal for people when they're on the road.
Memory card and SD memory card
"Memory card" covers different types of flexible, portable data storage. SD (or secure digital) memory cards are one of the most popular memory card types, with high data transfer rates and low battery consumption.
How much can a memory card hold?
From saving family photos to your smartphone to taking high-quality photos with GoPro™, memory cards and SD cards offer a variety of storage capacity specifications to meet almost every need.
As more and more people choose to use 64GB1 and 128GB memory cards on a daily basis, a single card can hold up to 1TB of flash memory for more intensive needs, such as 4K and 8K ultra HD video recording.
