- Flexxon X-Mask Pro microSD card encryption system is based on a Windows tool
- 128GB of storage seems obsolete by today’s high-capacity memory standards
- The prices of $228 and $428 raise questions about their practicality for the consumer.
In an era where cybercriminals are constantly coming up with new methods to breach data security, even storage devices like microSD cards have become targets for complex hacking.
Flexxon’s new X-MaskTM Pro microSD card claims to offer “invisible storage” and “unmatched security,” appealing to users who prioritize secrecy over capacity.
However, its limited 128GB size and high $428 price tag put it in an unusual position compared to the best microSD cards available today.
Stealth-based security
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 accessed through its dedicated X-Mask Pro tool for Windows.
This software allows users to set passwords and activate a mask mode that keeps stored files invisible to unauthorized systems.
Flexxon promotes this device as superior protection for surveillance data, particularly for drones, body cameras, and action cameras.
Despite its focus on encryption and durability, the X-Mask Pro’s small 64GB and 128GB capacities are hard to ignore.
In an era where the largest microSD cards exceed 1TB and are widely supported in consumer devices, the X-Mask’s storage limit seems restrictive.
Even among the best SD cards, performance now typically combines high capacity with powerful data recovery systems and support for high-speed 4K recording.
The X-Mask Pro, although labeled “4K and Action Ready,” risks being overshadowed by more practical options that balance safety with usability.
The card’s position as an industrial-grade security tool may explain its narrow focus.
It is intended for organizations operating in classified or high-risk environments where the danger of data interception outweighs the need for large storage space.
However, for everyday consumers looking for the best microSD cards for personal or creative use, their design and limited memory seem disproportionate to the cost.
This microSD card is available on the company’s official website; while the 64GB model costs $228, the 128GB version sells for $428.
