The Amazon Prime Day sale kicked off on October 8, 2024, and there are now deals on the types of microSD cards compatible with the Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck. Ones from both Samsung and SanDisk are part of the promotion. There are also Lexar Play models on sale.
Both the Samsung and SanDisk microSD card sales on Amazon are specifically listed as “Prime Big Deal” offers for the day. While three of the Lexar ones are reduced, they don’t have that indicator on the page. So while some may only be for Prime subscribers, others can be purchased by anyone.
Here’s the list of all the deals available. Note that while there are certain sizes that are reduced, the others are still full price.
- 128 GB Lexar Play microSDXC – $14.99 instead of $17.49.
- 128 GB Samsung Pro Plus microSDXC – $12.99 instead of $25.99.

As a reminder, there are some microSD card size limits for the Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck. Nintendo established it can only handle up to 2GB microSD or microSDXC. It’s also presumed that’s the limit for the Steam Deck, since that’s the size limit on microSDXC in general.
Amazon Prime Day runs October 8-9, 2024, and various microSD cards that can be used with the Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck are reduced as part of it.
