Mascom International stocks the SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB at KSh 2,150, brand new and sealed, with read speeds of up to 120MB/s and an A1 app performance rating. This is the SDSQUA4-032G-GN6MN pack, a microSDHC UHS-I card rated Class 10 and U1. It is the quicker of the two 32GB SanDisk Ultra versions we carry, and it costs less than the older 100MB/s card. You can buy the SanDisk Ultra microSD Card at our shop in the Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, and we will test it in your device first.
Designed for buyers with modest storage needs, the SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB handles the jobs that never need hundreds of gigabytes. Parents load it with cartoons and learning apps for a child's tablet. Shopkeepers in Industrial Area keep price lists and supplier invoices on it. Boda boda riders and matatu drivers fill it with music for a Bluetooth speaker or radio that reads memory cards. Older Android phones with 16GB of internal space get breathing room for WhatsApp voice notes and photos, without the cost of a larger card that the phone may not read anyway.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that mix genuine and counterfeit cards on the same shelf, Mascom International sells only sealed SanDisk retail packs. At Mascom International, we're seeing more buyers ask for this exact model once they learn it reads faster than the older version for less money. The SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB also works in many older devices that reject larger cards. Walk into our Kimathi Street shop with your phone, or order the SanDisk Ultra microSD Card on WhatsApp and pay when it reaches you anywhere in Kenya.
Common Questions About the SanDisk Ultra microSD Card
What is the SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB 120MBs price in Kenya?
The SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB 120MBs costs KSh 2,150, sealed in retail packaging, at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. The price covers a 6-month Mascom International warranty and pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties. It is KSh 140 cheaper than the older 32GB 100MB/s version at KSh 2,290. Stepping up to the 128GB SanDisk Ultra microSD Card costs KSh 850 more, at KSh 3,000, for four times the space. Ask on WhatsApp whether an SD adapter is in your pack.
What is the difference between the 120MB/s and 100MB/s SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB?
The SDSQUA4 version reads at up to 120MB/s, while the older SDSQUAR version reads at up to 100MB/s; both hold 32GB. Both are microSDHC, Class 10, U1 and A1 rated, so they fit the same devices. The faster card copies files to a laptop a little sooner through a compatible reader. Inside a phone or radio, you will rarely notice the gap. Since the 120MB/s card costs KSh 2,150 against KSh 2,290, most buyers choose it unless they need the older pack for a matching set.
Is 32GB on the SanDisk Ultra microSD Card enough for my phone?
A SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB holds about 9,500 photos from a 12MP camera, or about three and a half hours of 1080p video. That suits light users who mostly store WhatsApp media, music and school documents. Heavy video recorders will fill it within weeks. If your phone shoots a lot of video or you keep downloaded films, the 128GB version at KSh 3,000 or the 256GB version at KSh 5,350 gives far more headroom. For a child's tablet or a music card, 32GB is usually plenty.
Will the SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB work in an older phone or radio?
The SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB uses the microSDHC format, which older phones, feature phones, car radios and Bluetooth speakers widely support. Many of these devices top out at 32GB and cannot read microSDXC cards of 64GB and above. That makes this card the safe choice for older Itel, Nokia and Tecno handsets, and for speakers sold along Luthuli Avenue with a card slot. Check the device manual for "microSDHC" or "up to 32GB", or send us the model on WhatsApp.
Can I keep KRA, eCitizen and M-Pesa records on the SanDisk Ultra microSD Card?
You can store downloaded KRA PIN certificates, eCitizen receipts and M-Pesa statements on a SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB as a second copy. Keeping a backup on a card means a lost or stolen phone does not take every important document with it. A 32GB card holds thousands of PDF files, since most statements and certificates are well under 1MB each. Store the card in its case or adapter, and keep a third copy on email or cloud storage for anything you cannot replace.
Why can't I copy a film larger than 4GB onto the SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB?
The SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB ships formatted as FAT32, the standard file system for microSDHC cards, which limits each file to 4GB. Most phone videos, songs and photos sit well below that, so the limit rarely matters. A single long HD film or a large backup file will be refused. You can reformat the card to exFAT on a computer to lift the limit, but some older radios and phones will then stop reading it. For big files, the 128GB card is the simpler answer.
Why does my SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB show less than 32GB?
A new SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB shows about 29GB of usable space, and that is normal rather than a fault. Card makers count a gigabyte as one billion bytes, while phones and computers count it slightly larger, and formatting reserves a small area. Every genuine memory card loses roughly the same share. A card that claims 32GB but shows 64GB or more, or fails when half full, is a counterfeit. That is why we test every SanDisk card in front of you at our Kimathi Street shop.
Who should buy the SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB, and who should skip it?
Buy the SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB if you need inexpensive, genuine storage for an older phone, a child's tablet, a music speaker or a document backup. It also suits buyers whose devices accept only microSDHC cards. Skip it if you record video often, play large Android games or keep a film collection; the 128GB card at KSh 3,000 serves you better. Photographers and drone pilots shooting 4K should look at the SanDisk Extreme PRO microSD Card 256GB at KSh 9,500.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Speed
- Read speed of up to 120MB/s — about 20 percent quicker than the older 100MB/s Ultra card when copying to a laptop.
- Class 10 rating — writes at a steady 10MB/s or more, enough for Full HD video and burst photos on phones.
- UHS-I U1 interface — the high-speed bus used by almost every Android phone and tablet memory card slot today.
- A1 App Performance Class — meets the SD Association minimum for random reads and writes, so apps moved to the card still open properly.
- Real-world speed depends on the device — older phones and cheap card readers will run slower than the rated figure.
Capacity and Real-World Space
- 32GB printed capacity, about 29GB usable — the difference comes from how devices count gigabytes and from formatting.
- About 9,500 photos at 12MP — enough for a year of everyday snapshots for most light phone users.
- About three and a half hours of 1080p video — fits a few family events, but heavy recorders should size up.
- Roughly 7,000 songs at standard quality — a full playlist for a matatu sound system or home speaker.
- Cost of about KSh 67 per gigabyte — higher per gigabyte than larger cards, but lowest in total outlay.
Compatibility
- microSDHC format — readable by older phones, feature phones, car radios and speakers that cannot handle microSDXC cards.
- Supplied in FAT32 — every device that accepts microSDHC reads it straight away, with a 4GB per-file limit.
- Works in newer microSDXC slots too — any modern Android phone or tablet accepts a 32GB microSDHC card.
- Hybrid SIM trays — on some phones the card takes the second SIM slot, so dual-SIM users must choose.
- No card slot on iPhone or iPad — Apple users need a separate Lightning or USB-C memory card reader.
Build and Durability
- SanDisk rates its Ultra microSD cards as waterproof — the card itself survives a phone soaked in a rainstorm.
- Temperature proof rating — tolerates a hot car dashboard in Mombasa or a cold morning in Nyahururu.
- Shockproof, with no moving parts — drops and bumps on a daily commute do not harm stored files.
- X-ray proof rating — safe through airport and office security scanners without wiping data.
- Standard microSD size of 15mm by 11mm by 1mm — tiny, so store it in a case or adapter when out of the phone.
Inclusions
- SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB, model SDSQUA4-032G-GN6MN, sealed in SanDisk retail packaging.
- Genuine SanDisk print and packaging — counterfeit cards are common in Kenya, and the sealed pack is your proof.
- 6-month Mascom International warranty covering manufacturing defects, handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk.
- Free in-store test — we insert the card into your device and confirm the full capacity reads correctly.
- Pay-on-arrival delivery across all 47 counties — inspect the sealed pack before you pay.
Package Contents
The SanDisk Ultra microSD Card 32GB comes sealed in SanDisk's retail blister pack with the microSDHC card itself. The GN6MN pack code is the version sold without a full-size SD adapter, so confirm on WhatsApp before ordering if you need one for a laptop or camera. SD adapters and USB card readers are sold separately at Mascom International, and our team can recommend the right reader for your laptop or phone.
