It’s pretty unlikely that the “wee but mighty” metaphor that goes all the way back to Shakespeare was created with the very wee, very mighty Samsung P9 Express microSD card in mind. In fact, if you were caught with such a device back in the Bard’s day, you probably would have been burned for witchcraft. But considering that the P9 Express is 0.59 x 0.43 inches in size and less than 1 one-hundredth of an ounce in weight, yet able to boost the storage on literally dozens of different devices by over half a terabyte, its wee-but-mighty status is undeniable.
Also wee? The P9 Express microSD card’s price, which is just $80 right now at Amazon. But if you’re looking to score big, reliable, fast-moving storage to your Nintendo Switch 2, drone, camera, laptop, tablet, or most anything else, you should get to Amazon mighty fast, because the shelves are emptying and emptying fast.

Switch 2 Superstar
Samsung is leaning hard into selling the P9 Express microSD card to Nintendo Switch 2 owners, which is smart thinking when you consider just how big a smash hit that handheld gaming console has been. The selling point for Switch 2 games isn’t just the great sale price or the 512GB of storage the P9 Express adds to the console. It’s the speed, which as any gamer will you, is absolutely essential.
The P9 Express moves data at speeds of up to 800 MB/s, which is four times faster than even Samsung’s standard microSD cards. When you’re booting up a game from a parallel storage unit rather than the Switch 2’s built-in storage, a standard microSD card might lag, but the P9 Express will have your game up and running in a snap, and more importantly, it will run smoothly and lag-free.
As a game and downloadable content repository, the P9 Express will get a serious workout inside a Switch 2. But Samsung’s Dynamic Thermal Guard technology keeps things cool within the tiny P9 Express to ward off overheating-related slowdowns or bricking.
Universal Storage
Even if the Samsung P9 Express only worked with the Switch 2, there would be a pretty solid case to hit this Amazon deal and snag one for just $80. But the list of tech items the P9 Express brings seamless, fast, reliable storage to is long indeed. Basically, any device with a microSD slot, since the P9 Express is also reverse-compatible with UHS-I devices. That covers a lot of ground — everything from smartphones and tablets to digital cameras and drones. It also comes with a 3-year warranty, and chances are you’ll never need to file a claim since the P9 Express is built to withstand x-rays, magnets, drops, water, high and low temperatures, and the wear and tear that comes with being inserted into and removed from devices.
With Amazon’s 33% off deal in place, the $80 price for the 512GB Samsung P9 Express microSD card is a small one indeed for a tiny chip that triples the storage of a Nintendo Switch 2, and also works across such a vast array of tech devices. But Amazon’s hung out that big red “Deal Selling Fast” tag on this one, so move fast before you miss out.
