MicroSDXC (eXtended Capacity) cards have capacities above 32GB up to 2TB. MicroSDHC (High Capacity) cards range from 4GB to 32GB. MicroSD cards are older and have smaller capacities. This Lexar card is MicroSDXC.
What does A2 rating mean for this card?
The A2 (Application Performance Class 2) rating means the card is optimized for running mobile applications directly from the card, offering faster app launch times and smoother performance compared to A1 or non-rated cards.
Can I use this card in my camera?
Yes, if your camera has a microSDXC card slot and supports UHS-I, U3, or V30 standards, you can use this card for photo and video capture.
What is the warranty period for this card?
Lexar typically offers a limited lifetime warranty or a multi-year warranty for its memory cards. Please refer to the product packaging or Lexar's official website for specific warranty details applicable to this model.
How do I format the Lexar PLAY card?
