Speed up your Raspberry Pi or phone
These new "A1" class cards are very noticeably faster when used as the OS drive in single board computers like the Raspberry Pi3B. Normal SD cards are highly optimized for sequential read/write, which is what is done done in cameras, but a computer OS does a lot of non-sequential I/O, and most SD cards are terrible at that. And I mean really terrible! Like hundreds of times slower than "A1" class cards!Swap the old Class 10 SD card in your Raspberry Pi3B for one of these and it will seem like a new computer. The "A1" class cards were designed to speed up app performance in phones and tablets, but the benefits apply to single board computers as well. So whether you want to speed up your phone or single board computer, the "A1" class cards are the ones to get.It won't make CPU intensive software run faster, but it will make the whole system more responsive and eliminate most of the little stutters and pauses that plague singe board computers using SD cards as their boot drive.
