Rank #3 in Best 32GB USB Flash Drive 2026: 8 Ranked, Read vs Write
SanDisk Ultra Flair 32GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive (Silver/Black)
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The SanDisk Ultra Flair 32 GB is third in this guide to 32 GB USB flash drives. It is a USB 3.0 stick with a 32 GB capacity, a silver and black casing and a price of £14.39. What earns it a place here is the same thing that earns most of this list a place: the numbers on its own Amazon page do not agree with each other.
The listing leads with up to 150 MB/s in the product name, in the first bullet and in the specification's read speed field. The same specification table gives a write speed of 4 MB per second — a gap of 37.5 to 1 inside one page. The bullets add that a full-length movie transfers in under 30 seconds and that the drive is up to 15 times faster than standard USB 2.0 drives, without saying whether either figure describes reading or writing. Every price, rating and number below comes from the product's Amazon listing, not from testing we carried out.
