These two solve completely different problems, so the real question is which one your setup is missing.

The SanDisk Ultra microSD costs roughly eight times as much, holds 32GB with up to 120MB/s transfers, and edges ahead at 4.7 from 409,000 reviews. If your telly needs connecting, the cable wins on sheer value. If your phone or camera is gasping for storage, only the SanDisk will do.
