SanDisk
microSD Cards – these expandable memories is very essential to the
smartphone and mobile world for additional storage ranging from 4 GB to a
whopping 200 GB. These microSD cards are also guaranteed to be durable as they’re
waterproof, temperature proof, shockproof, X-ray proof and magnet proof. This
could be the reason why my SanDisk microSD card is still alive after 3 years of
continuous use.

The main highlight of yesterday’s
even is the 200 GB version. So in case you’re interested to know
the price of the 200 GB variant, it’s still a luxury at this point at USD 399 (playing around PHP 18,000). This will work on any device that supports up to 64
GB storage. This could be perfect for audiophile and videophiles who wanted to store a lot of 24 bit lossless audio and
record FHD videos on their devices. It’s worth of an investment if you really
want it. It will be available in the Philippines this 3rd quarter of
2015 with 10 years of warranty.

users as this is a special type of flash drive that works for iDevices. (iPhone and iPad) It’s a powerful storage solution that
lets you transfer your files easily from iDevice to iXpand and vice versa. It
can also let you instantly play popular video formats including non native and
PC-friendly ones like AVI and WMV. It’s that cool!

SanDisk Dual USB Drive with Type C Connector – with this new type of innovation is starting to boom. SanDisk thinks
