SanDisk’s $450 microSD card adds 1TB more storage to your Surface Pro
SanDisk Extreme MicroSD

If you want to add more storage to your laptop and don't want to mess with upgrading your device's solid-state drive, you can now buy SanDisk's 1TB microSDXC card and insert it into your computer's memory card slot. This solution works perfectly for devices like Microsoft's Surface Go, which top out with just a 128GB internal drive that's non-user replaceable, the premium Surface Pro 6, or even smartphones like Samsung's Galaxy S10 series. All these devices support microSD card slots. And unlike USB storage drives, you will be able to just insert the card into your device without any bulky adapters or converters for a seamless look.

SanDisk initially announced the 1TB capacity of its microSD memory card at Mobile World Congress this year, and now it's ready for purchase for $450. The Sandisk Extreme microSDXC card is a UHS-1 rated card with read speeds up to 160MB per second and write speeds up to 90MB per second, according to the company. And if you're looking to use this on mobile phones for capturing 4K videos, Sandisk claims a sustained video capture rate of 30MB per second on UHS-enabled host devices.

Although the Ryzen 7 7800X3D ticks all the right boxes, there are several alternatives available. Some are cheaper while still offering great performance, while others are more powerful in applications outside of gaming. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is a great CPU, but if you want to do a little more shopping, these are the other processors you should consider.

Even the new mid-tier Snapdragon X Plus beats Apple’s M3

You might have already heard of the Snapdragon X Elite, the upcoming chips from Qualcomm that everyone's excited about. They're not out yet, but Qualcomm is already announcing another configuration to live alongside it: the Snapdragon X Plus.

The Snapdragon X Plus is pretty similar to the flagship Snapdragon X Elite in terms of everyday performance but, as a new chip tier, aims to bring AI capabilities to a wider portfolio of ARM-powered laptops. To be clear, though, this one is a step down from the flagship Snapdragon X Elite, in the same way that an Intel Core Ultra 7 is a step down from Core Ultra 9.
