The largest microSD card that Sandisk made up until now was 128GB, but this new 200GB card is capable of 90MB/sec. Even at 90MB/sec, it would take around 35 minutes to fill the card and its 200GB capacity. The new Sandisk 200GB Ultra microSDXC UHS-I Premium Edition is only compatible with Android smartphones and tablets.

What does a 200GB microSD card cost? $400, which is four times the cost of a 128GB card on Amazon right now. Sandisk sweetens the deal offering you 10 years of warranty, which is a very nice touch.
