Yes. Way better. U3 vs U1. About 3-5 times faster write.

You mean this one?

https://slickdeals.net/f/13017199-sandisk-1tb-ssd-plus-2-5-ssd-96-256gb-ultra-microsdxc-uhs-i-card-w-adapter-31-much-more?src=frontpage

Yes it is. The A1 mark on the Sandisk means:

Random Read: 1500 IOPS
Random Write: 500 IOPS

Some say that's faster than this Samsung U3 card for 4K video. Good question. I'd like to know too.

I would definitely go with Samsung if your recording with 4k. It's better rated for 4k recording. On the sandisk website and on Amazon description section it recommends using sandisk extreme for 4k. The sandisk is only rated at uhs 1 speeds. The A1 shows it opens apps faster.
