Works with Switch
I have only used it with the Switch, so how it works for other devices, I couldn't tell you. In regard to the Switch, this sd card works great. No issues. I have nearly used the entire space provided on the card (only 8GB remaining), so this should tell you that it does its job. I trust and recommend it (for use with Switch).

Love!
I exclusively only download games on my switch and this saved my from having to buy actual game cards. I just don’t really wanna carry around all the extra stuff. This worked great for me. Once I installed it, my switch updated and restarted and everything was smooth. I’ve seen a lot of people point out that it does not fit in their switch with the adapter; but you don’t need the adapter for your switch. Just the card slides right in under the stand on the back of your console. The adapter I’m pretty sure is for your computer or something but this is perfect for my switch and cheaper then the official Nintendo one that does the same thing. I definitely recommend. Even went and bought a second one for my boyfriend so he can record game play on his switch!

Switch compatible
The Nintendo brand SD card of the same storage size cost double. Save yourself some $ and order this for your Switch.
I was a bit apprehensive after ordering because I saw reviews that said it wasn't compatible -- I'm happy to say that was not the case with mine. I transferred all my data and still have over 100GB left. Very satisfied with my purchase.

Easy to install; uploaded immediately
I ordered this so my son could upload the umpteenth update to Fortnite on his Nintendo Switch. It was easy to install and it uploaded to the Switch almost instantly. The card also comes with an adapter, which was not needed for the Switch but kind of nice to have.

Flawless So Far
I found the Gigastone Micro SD card 2-pack (64 g each) on Amazon for such a good price it seemed to be a misprint or worse they would end up being cheap knock offs. Neither was the case. I ordered 2 double packs specifically to be installed in two iPod classics that I was switching out the hard drive for a quad SD card storage card which I did without a hitch...ok there was a moment or two of frustration trying to open the iPod case which rendered one back case almost unusable but it works just am waiting for a new back case before I put it to any heavy use. The second one I was able to go from a 60 gig hard drive to the SD solution and installed 3 64G cards and one 32G card and now have far more storage space then I need at this point but I have the option. And the switch made to iPod physically 1/3 the weight. The SD cards were recognised first time with not even a reformatting necessary.
If you need a good SD card that is reliable do not think twice with this amazing price.

Perfect for what I need
This micro ssd was perfect to increase the storage on my Switch, installed quickly and I have no problem with it at all! The only thing I could see being a downside is that its read speed is slower than I anticpated. It took about 10 minutes to transfer 13 gigs of data from the system, which is not too bad but the card is labled for speed and 90 MB/s is kind of slow in the grand scheme of things. But this is the only complaint I have and it is a very small one!

Tiny print, difficult to discern
Great customer service and no questions asked. I purchased knowing to pay attention to the printed info so I was aware that it may look different but translated to the same output/function. I checked the card when I received and it was an entirely different card. Please, just double check the number in the ‘U’. Mine was a 1 when it should have been a 3. It was super tiny but my camera was able to depict it. I requested a return and the replacement arrived before I could send the incorrect card.

Good GOD this thing is fast!
Yes, I know... I see the rating so I was expecting it to be fast. That's the entire reason I bought it. Still, it feels even faster than it's rated for! I don't know if that is just a perception thing or what, but I swear I have never copied over the Raspbian OS that fast before. It flew!!! It's the perfect addition to my PiCade cabinet. Lots (and lots!) of room for ROMs but still plenty to let it be a full OS too. Time will tell if it holds up as long as they claim, but at least for now, I couldn't be happier.

Holds 4 Hours of Video
This card fits perfectly in my ActionCam H9 and holds at least four hours of 1080p video. The camera has no problems recording to it and has never received any memory errors. The cards also come with a very nice adapter to allow the micro SD card to be read from a standard SD card slot. Since my workstation has an SD card slot, I can use the adapter to unload the micro SD card directly to my workstation, a feature I find very convenient. I find these cards to be a good value for my money.

Answer :
I use regular SD cards. Nothing really fantastic.
Question :
Has anybody bought these and used them in a go pro 7 or 8?
Answer :
Nope. However, they works fine on my Samsung J series smartphone, Amazon Fire HD 8 and 10, and my RCA Delta Pro. So if its Android based and takes a 64 gig card this makes a solid choice :)
