Exceria Pro G2 V90: Maximum performance for professionals
The Exceria Pro G2 V90 makes almost full use of the UHS-II interface and is primarily aimed at professional users who want to record 8K video at a high frame rate. According to the manufacturer, the 512 GB model achieves a read speed of up to 310 MB/s and a maximum write speed of 300 MB/s. Smaller capacities between 64 GB and 256 GB are also powerful and offer read speeds of up to 310 MB/s and write speeds of up to 295 MB/s.
The guaranteed minimum write rate of 90 MB/s according to the official V90 standard ensures that even long 8K recordings can be written to the card smoothly at 60 or 120 fps. Kioxia emphasizes that the actual speed may vary slightly depending on the device, file size and operating environment. The V90 series therefore offers filmmakers in particular maximum reliability at high data rates.
Exceria Pro G2 V60: High performance at a lower price
The Exceria Pro G2 V60 is aimed at users who also want to record 8K content but have a slightly lower budget. The cards achieve a maximum of 300 MB/s read and up to 250 MB/s write, depending on the capacity. The smallest model with 128 GB delivers up to 170 MB/s write speed, while larger variants achieve the full values. The guaranteed minimum write rate of 60 MB/s according to Video Speed Class V60 is also sufficient for most 8K workflows.
Like the V90 series, the V60 series reliably supports sequences with high frame rates and is suitable for both camera and drone recordings. This means that Kioxia also offers ambitious amateurs a solid solution for getting started with high-resolution video productions.
Availability and outlook
The Exceria Pro G2 SDXC cards are expected to be launched in the first quarter of 2026 and will each come with a five-year manufacturer’s warranty. Prices have not yet been officially announced, but are likely to be in line with comparable high-performance cards such as the Lexar Professional 2000x Gold or Sandisk Extreme Pro. With the introduction of the G2 series, Kioxia is underlining its position as a provider of high-speed storage solutions for professional video and photo productions.
Conclusion
With the Exceria Pro G2 SDXC cards, Kioxia delivers high-performance storage solutions for 8K videos that will impress both professionals and ambitious filmmakers. The V90 series offers maximum speed and stability, while the V60 series provides an affordable entry into high-resolution video production.
