Here are five of the best SD cards you can buy for your GoPro camera.

• SanDisk Extreme: This is one of the most popular brands of SD cards. You can find them for phones that have SD card slots available as well. The 256GB Extreme MicroSDXC can save time when you transfer 4k videos. This SD card transfers data at up to 90MB/s speed and needs devices that can reach that speed. These SD cards also work on the older models of GoPro. They are the ones that GoPro itself highly recommends as the most suitable SD card for their camera. It is great for the latest models, the Hero8. 
• Delkin Select: This SD card supports the shooting of 1080p video recording and also is time-lapse and HDR efficient. This SD card is a cost-effective brand that is fast enough for the Hero 8. The Delkin select SD card is available from 16GB to 512GB, with an adapter as part of its perk. Furthermore, the card is rated for V30 and has a UHS-I interface.
• Lexar Professional 1000X: This SD card brand works well with the older models of GoPro but is considered slow for the 4k image and video quality of the latest models. The 1000x is apt for the new generation GoPro cameras. As a caveat, the Lexar professional has a 1666x model that is faster for the GoPro cameras. It is a UHS-II card that is more than what GoPros need at the moment unless there are new models that are made. But for now, the interface is high for GoPro. However, it can still be compatible with the GoPro camera because of its protocol design.
• PNY Elite-X SD card: The PNY Elite-X SD card's read speed is up to 100MB/s with a class of V30 performance for 4k videos. The SD card CAN also accommodate 60x120 and 4096x3072 picture quality. Although it is not as popular as some memory cards, it is rich in value and speed. The GoPro works perfectly with this SD card, with the interface being UHS-I and a V30 rating.
• Samsung EVO select: This memory card has a performance level of 100MB/s and 90MB/s as read-write speed. It also comfortably supports 4k HD videos. They have several memory card variations, but it can be difficult to tell them apart, as they all have similar names. More importantly, they are suitable for any GoPro. They are available from 65GB to 256GB sizes, with a U3 rating and a UHS-I interface.

Now that you know the types of SD cards to look for when you go to the store. What are the things you consider when you want to buy the best SD card that matches your GoPro?
