Product Features
- Expanded Storage: Each 128GB micro SD card provides significant additional capacity for your devices, helping to free up internal storage and improve device performance.
- Full HD Video Recording: With U1 and Speed Class 10 (C10) ratings, these cards are optimized for smooth and uninterrupted recording of Full HD 1080P and 720P videos, capturing your important moments with clarity.
- Universal Compatibility: Widely compatible with a variety of devices including smartphones, tablets, PCs, laptops, security cameras, action cameras, drones, dashcams, and game consoles. An included SD adapter further extends versatility for devices with standard SD card slots.
- Fast Data Transfer: Leveraging UHS-I technology, the microSDXC cards offer read speeds of up to 90MB/s, facilitating quick and efficient transfer of high-resolution photos, music, applications, games, videos, and large files.
- Enhanced Durability: Constructed with high-quality chips, these TF flash memory cards are designed to be water-resistant, anti-magnetic, shockproof, and resistant to extreme high or low temperatures, ensuring your data remains safe and secure.
Setup and Installation
Follow these steps to properly install and prepare your KOOTION Micro SD Card for use:
- Identify the Slot: Locate the microSD card slot on your device (e.g., smartphone, camera, drone). If your device uses a standard SD card slot, insert the microSD card into the provided SD adapter first.
- Insert the Card: Gently insert the microSD card (or adapter with microSD card) into the designated slot. Ensure it is inserted in the correct orientation to avoid damage. You may hear a click when it is properly seated.
- Initial Formatting: For optimal performance and compatibility, it is recommended to format the new microSD card using your device's internal formatting function. This process will erase all data on the card, so ensure it is empty or backed up before proceeding. The card is pre-formatted as exFAT by default.
- Verify Capacity: After formatting, check your device's storage settings to confirm that the card is recognized and displays the correct available capacity. Note that actual usable capacity will be slightly less than the advertised 128GB due to system files and formatting.

Operating Instructions
Once installed, your KOOTION Micro SD Card is ready for use. Here are common operations:
- Saving Photos and Videos: Set your camera, smartphone, or action camera to save media directly to the microSD card. The Class 10 and U1 speed ratings ensure reliable performance for Full HD video recording and high-resolution photo capture.
- Data Transfer: To transfer files to or from the card, insert it into a compatible card reader (or the provided SD adapter and then an SD card reader) connected to a computer. Drag and drop files as you would with any other storage device.
- Using with Drones/Dashcams: For devices like drones and dashcams, ensure the card is properly inserted before operation. The card's speed and capacity are suitable for continuous recording in these applications.
- Application Storage: On compatible smartphones and tablets, you can configure applications to install or store data directly on the microSD card, freeing up internal device memory.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your KOOTION Micro SD Card, try the following solutions:
- Card Not Recognized:
- Ensure the card is fully and correctly inserted into the device or adapter.
- Try inserting the card into a different compatible device or card reader to rule out a device-specific issue.
- Clean the metal contacts of the card.
- Data Corruption/Errors:
- Perform a full format of the card using your device's utility or a computer. (Warning: This will erase all data.)
- Ensure the card is always safely ejected before removal.
- Slow Performance:
- Ensure your device supports UHS-I speeds.
- Check if the card is nearly full; performance can degrade with very little free space.
- Avoid running multiple demanding applications simultaneously when recording or transferring data.
- Actual Capacity Less Than Advertised: This is normal. A portion of the listed capacity is used for formatting and other functions, resulting in slightly less usable storage space.
