If you need a high-capacity microSD card for Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck, or Windows gaming handheld, Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days sale includes a rare discount on the largest one on the market today. SanDisk's 1.5TB Ultra microSD card is on sale for a massive $61 price cut, dropping the price to only $89. This makes the 1.5TB Ultra cheaper than many microSD cards with only 1TB storage capacity. But you probably don't want to wait too long; the last time the 1.5TB Ultra was discounted to a similar price, it sold out before Prime Day ended. SanDisk and Samsung microSD deals at Amazon The SanDisk Ultra works without a hitch on Steam Deck and Nintendo Switch, and it's also one of the most reliable and popular microSD cards around. Smaller-capacity versions of the Ultra are available for cheap, too. If you want to stick with a high-capacity SanDisk but with faster transfer speeds than the Ultra, the 1TB SanDisk Extreme is available for $78.59. The Extreme model offers up to 190MB/s transfer speed, while the Ultra is graded for 150MB/s--plenty fast enough for most users, but those who transfer files between storage devices frequently may want to consider opting for the Extreme. Games for Steam Deck and Windows devour storage space more than games for Nintendo Switch, so the 1.5TB Ultra is a great pick for users who are downloading a bunch of Steam games on their handheld. But for Switch users, 1.5TB might be a bit overkill. There are some great deals on lower-capacity microSD cards for Big Deal Days, too. If you're a Zelda fan, you can snag the officially licensed 1TB SanDisk microSD emblazoned with the Royal Crest. Meanwhile, 512GB cards SanDisk cards are only $32, and Samsung's high-end (faster) 512GB Pro Plus is on sale for $40. Continue Reading at GameSpot
