Deal Details
Not sure how long it will last, as Amazon has a big "deal selling fast" flag on it, but this is the cheapest I've seen a name-brand 256GB card.

I know plenty of folks will be wanting a larger one, but seems like a solid deal nonetheless if you want to double your Switch 2's memory.

Samsung P9 Express microSD Express Card, 256GB microSDXC Memory Card, Up to 800 MB/s, for Nintendo-Switch ™ 2, (MB MK256T/AM)

Does arrive after Christmas.

Do we need a special reader for these in order to take advantage of the fastest speeds?

I don't have a switch so do I need a special reader for these in order to take advantage of the fastest speeds?

If you have a device that uses MicroSD Express, then you can take advantage of the speeds. If you only have devices that use MicroSD, then you cannot take advantage of the speeds. If you're not sure, best bet is to check online to see what your device is compatible with and understand the differences between the two formats. MicroSD Express is backwards compatible, but devices that can't take advantage of Express will treat it as a standard UHS-I (Ultra High Speed - Phase 1) SD card.

Thank you, already know that. Which is why my question is:

Put another way.

If I don't have a switch and I have the card and I want to take advantage of the higher speed with my ordinary computer, can I use a device like this?

It's the same answer. That device specifically says it's ideal for UHS-1 cards in the description. Therefore, I would surmise that it will not be able to take advantage of an Express card. If the device doesn't say anything about Express cards, it's safe to assume there's not going to be an advantage to using an Express card.

You would most likely need something like this: https://a.co/d/9zduc4A
