Best microSD Cards for Nintendo Switch 2 — Summary & Buyer’s Guide

Best microSD Cards for Nintendo Switch 2 — Quick Guide The Nintendo Switch 2 uses microSD Express ("EX") cards for storage expansion. These are faster and more expensive than traditional microSD cards. The console includes 256GB internal storage (UFS 3.1) — using it yields the best load times — but many modern games can quickly fill that space. Key takeaways Switch 2 requires microSD Express (look for an "EX" logo). UHS-I cards aren’t sufficient for expansion. Real-world performance between EX cards is similar — pick the lowest-priced option in the capacity you want. SanDisk’s microSD Express card often rates fastest and most consistent, but it costs more. The console’s internal storage remains faster than any card. If you can, use the built-in 256GB first and wait for wider availability and…

Higher numbers mean better protection—good for beach, pool, or rain. Battery life Expect ~12 hours as a baseline; louder listening and bass-heavy playback can cut that in half. Check whether the speaker uses USB-C or…

Apple removes ICEBlock from App Store after DOJ demand — safety concerns cited

Apple Removes ICEBlock from App Store After DOJ Demand — Safety Concerns Cited Apple has removed ICEBlock and other apps that allowed users to mark or report recent ICE activity from the App Store. The takedowns followed demands from U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi and the Department of Justice, which told Apple the apps posed safety risks to federal law enforcement after the gunman who attacked an ICE facility in Dallas reportedly used tracking apps to target agents. Apple told reporters it created the App Store to be "a safe and trusted place to discover apps" and that it acted "based on information we've received from law enforcement about the safety risks associated with ICEBlock." Attorney General Bondi said such apps were "designed to put ICE agents at risk just…
