Filming 8K in a raw format maybe? (a lot of cameras only have an SD card slot, or only the sd card slot is fast enough to record raw at higher resolutions)

You probably wouldn’t need to take it out of the camera either? so the form factor wouldn’t be major concern.

It’s only 104 MB/s. Not enough for RAW video.

Also could be handy for smuggling banned movies/tv shows into authoritarian countries that block or outlaw unauthorised VPNs?

Though for the price these will retail for, would probably be easier to take more, smaller capacity cards…

Also useful for devices where you want more storage but the device only has an SD card slot, or other slots are already occupied or sd card is just easier such as phones, Nintendo switch, steam deck, ultra light laptops, raspberry pi…
