SanDisk just announced its biggest microSD card yet--but it doesn't come cheap.

The world's first 400GB microSD starts shipping in September, and will set you back $249.99

The new microSD with adapter is good for 35 hours of full HD video. So it makes sense that SanDisk is marketing this microSD toward action camera and gaming console owners.

This could be a game-changer for drone owners, GoPro enthusiasts, and Nintendo Switch fans.

This microSD has up to 100MB/s transfer speeds. For those of you who aren't aware of what that means, here you go: You'll be able to move up to 1,200 photos in a single minute. That's pretty impressive.

SanDisk has come a long way since the invention of the 128MB TransFlash in 2004. And it means that we get to enjoy our gadgets on a whole new level.
