World-class developer of memory products, ADATA announced that it had finished making a new bunch of small memory cards for smartphones and anything else that can read microSDHC.

They are five in number, with capacities of 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, 32 GB and 64 GB, respectively.

Their greatest asset is the UHS-I (Ultra High Speed Class 1) speed rating, which allows them to communicate at read or write speeds of up to 20 MB/s.

Meanwhile, the random read and write speeds are of 500 IOPS and 50 IOPS, respectively.

All in all, whatever electronic ends up using one of these things should have no trouble recording full HD video (1,080p) or playing such files.

Alas, though the announcement was official enough, ADATA chose not to disclose the prices of these items.
