However, when you’re buying your MicroSD card, you better decide depending upon your usage. If you capture a lot of 4K videos, maybe the Ultra MicroSD cards will be a better choice as the speeds are much higher.

More importantly, when you set out to buy the 1TB microSD card, make sure that your device is compatible with it as many gadgets have a cap on the storage size. While its super cool to have a 1TB card, remember there are cheaper options in the market.
