What is the difference between a microSD V30 vs V60?When choosing between a microSD V30 vs V60 card for your drone or action camera, you should know that both cards can capture high-resolution video and photo imagery in Full HD, 4K, and 6K. Since bit rate demands on drones and action cams are much lower than those required from cinema cams or DSLRs, the minimum sustained speed from each card should satisfy all recording modes available on drones and action cams.
The main benefit of our AV PRO microSD V60 vs V30 cards is that the AV PRO microSD V60 has a faster sustained offloading speed of 260 MB/s vs 95 MB/s. This can save you considerable time when transferring data between takes or during post-production.
Another way this card is different is the fact that Angelbird’s AV PRO microSD V30 card has a UHS-I interface, while the V60 uses a UHS-II interface. This is of no consequence when using either microSD with aerial drones, 360, and action cams since UHS-II devices are backward compatible with universally compatible UHS-I cards. This means that, while both cards are acceptable, you cannot realize any potential speed benefit to using a UHS-II card in a UHS-I device. When it comes to gaming consoles, for example, Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck, Asus ROG Ally, or AYANEO 2S only support a UHS-I card interface.
