Happily, that means that they come with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/by-type\/memory-cards\/microsd\">Micro SD card<\/a> slots that are a cheap way of extending the amount of storage space on your phone.<\/p>\n<p>Better still, you can use this space to install more apps, copy over a sizeable music collection or even have access to HD films and other videos. Micro SD cards are also great for storing your photos and videos, particularly if you&#8217;re recording slow-motion or high definition (1080p or 4K) footage!<\/p>\n<p>Here are our top recommended <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/by-type\/memory-cards\/micro-sdhc\">Micro SDHC cards<\/a> for the Sony Xperia XA1 and Xperia XA1 Ultra:<\/p>\n<h3>3. Kingston Digital\u00a0&#8211; 32GB, U1<\/h3>\n<p>T<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/images.mobilefun.co.uk\/graphics\/300pixelp\/kingston-digital-class-10-micro-sd-card-with-adapter-32gb-p58214-300.jpg\" alt=\"Kingston Digital Class 10 Micro SD Card with Adapter - 32GB\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/>his Kingston Digital Micro SD card is a great budget choice that doesn&#8217;t compromise too much on space or performance. You get 32GB of space, enough to more than double your available storage, while hitting the enviable UHS Speed Class 1 rating (which exceeds\u00a0the old Class 10 rating). This card can\u00a0read at speeds of up to 44MB\/s, making it easy to launch apps or stream videos.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Samsung Evo Plus &#8211; 64GB, U3<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/images.mobilefun.co.uk\/graphics\/300pixelp\/samsung-64gb-microsdxc-evo-plus-memory-card-w-sd-adapter-class-10-p63786-300.jpg\" alt=\"Samsung 64GB MicroSDXC EVO Plus Memory Card w\/ SD Adapter - Class 10\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/>Next up is Samsung&#8217;s Evo Plus, which has double the storage at 64GB and an even faster UHS Class 3 speed rating. Thats enough to ensure read speeds of up to 100 MB\/s and write speeds of 60 MB\/s, making copying photos off your phone or launching apps an extremely rapid process.\u00a0You can even record 4K video with no difficulty, something that isn&#8217;t possible using slower cards.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Sandisk Extreme Plus &#8211; 128GB, U3<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/images.mobilefun.co.uk\/graphics\/300pixelp\/sandisk-extreme-plus-microsdxc-card-with-adapter-128gb-p59148-300.jpg\" alt=\"SanDisk Extreme Plus MicroSDXC Card with Adapter - 128GB\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/>We conclude with Sandisk&#8217;s Extreme Plus series, which provide unparalleled storage and performance. This card is pricey, but packs in 128GB of expanded storage to ensure you&#8217;ll have to spend months or years filling it up before you eventually have to clear it out! It&#8217;s fast too, with read and write speeds of 90 MB\/s, with the latter being faster than even Samsung&#8217;s rapid Evo Plus card. If you want the best of the bet, Sandisk&#8217;s card is where it&#8217;s at.<\/p>\n<h3>Wrapping up<\/h3>\n<p>For more information on Micro SD cards, including speed ratings and other impenetrable acronyms check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/2015\/06\/sd-and-micro-sd-memory-cards-explained-form-factors-speeds-and-adapters\/\">Guide to Micro SD cards<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.27.4 -->\n<div class=\"quads-location quads-ad1\" id=\"quads-ad1\" style=\"float:none;margin:0px 0 0px 0;text-align:center;\">\n<div id=\"bari-widget\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Xperia XA1 and XA1 Ultra are modern Sony smartphones, operating in the midrange of the market.
