Our take on the Lexar Silver Plus 256GB microSD (2-pack)

The Lexar Silver Plus is a two-pack of 256GB microSD cards rated V30, suited to recording backup footage on a camera or handheld. At a tracked $134.99 it sits at the bottom of its $134.99 to $169.99 range since August 26, 2026, so there is no reason to hold out.

The listing gives 205MB/s read and 150MB/s write, with 4K at 60 frames per second recording support. Two cards help an IRL setup: one in the camera, one spare in the bag. Lexar lists IPX7 water resistance, a lifetime limited warranty for the card and recovery software. One compatibility note matters for handhelds: it is listed for Nintendo Switch 1, not Switch 2. It is a microSD card, so a PC needs a reader.

Pros
  • Two 256GB cards for the price of a bundle
  • 4K 60fps recording support at V30
  • Tracked price at its lowest, $134.99
Cons
  • Listed for Switch 1, not Switch 2
  • Rated V30, no higher video speed class
  • Needs a reader to copy files to a PC
