Samsung upgrades EVO Select and EVO Plus microSD cards - up to 1TB and 160 MB/s read
Samsung updated its lineup of EVO Select, EVO Plus, and PRO Plus microSD cards with faster speed and a 1TB capacity option.
The EVO Select and EVO Plus cards now boast read speeds up to 160 MB/s (a 23% improvement) and cover the 3 Speed Grade (U3), the A2 application performance class, and the video speed class of V30. The cards are also protected against water, extreme temperatures, X-rays, wear-out, drops, and magnetic impact.

The PRO Plus card matches all the EVO Select and EVO Plus specs but has a faster 180 MB/s read, up to 130 MB/s write speed, and starts from 128GB. Samsung says it's specifically aimed at photographers and videographers.
