- Flexxon X-Mask Pro microSD card encryption system is based on a Windows tool
- 128GB of storage seems outdated by today’s high-capacity memory standards
- The prices of $228 and $428 raise doubts about its practicality for the consumer.
In an era where cybercriminals are constantly devising new methods to breach data security, even storage devices such as microSD cards have become targets for complex hacks.
Flexxon’s new X-MaskTM Pro microSD card claims to offer “invisible storage” and “unmatched security”, attracting users who value secrecy over capacity.
However, its limited size of 128GB and high price of $428 puts it in an unusual position compared to the best microSD cards available today.
Security relies on concealment
The X-Mask Pro microSD card is described as an “industrial grade” solution designed for sensitive environments.
Its main feature is “data hiding”, which allows information to remain hidden until it can be accessed through its dedicated tool X-Mask Pro for Windows.
This software allows users to set passwords and enable a mask mode that keeps stored files invisible to unauthorized systems.
Flexxon presents this device as optimal protection for surveillance data, especially for drones, body cameras and action cameras.
Despite the focus on encryption and durability, the X-Mask Pro’s tiny 64GB and 128GB capacities are hard to ignore.
In an age where the largest microSD cards exceed 1TB and are widely compatible with consumer devices, the X-Mask’s storage limit seems restrictive.
Even among the best SD cards, performance now often combines large capacity with powerful data recovery systems and support for high-speed 4K recording.
The X-Mask Pro, while labeled “4K and Action Ready,” risks being overshadowed by more practical options that balance security and usability.
The card’s position as an industrial-grade security tool may explain its narrow focus.
It is intended for organizations operating in high-risk or classified environments where the danger of data interception outweighs the need for large storage space.
Yet for everyday consumers looking for the best microSD cards for personal or creative use, its design and limited memory seem disproportionate to its cost.
This microSD card is available on the company’s official website – while the 64GB model costs $228, the 128GB version sells for $428.
