UHS-II SD Cards?

This UHS-II Micro SDXC card has a write speed of 155MB/s

Which may make it possible for the phone to save burst photos to the SD card instead of to the internal storage. But, would the phone actually switch to saving burst photos to the SD card if you had this card inserted, and does the Galaxy S9's SD card slot have the extra pins that come on a UHS-II Micro SDXC card? Those extra pins are essential to take full advantage of the increased speed.

the pins:

Does anyone know of any other functions a higher speed card could enable on this phone?

Thanks!

I don't know if this will work on our phones because of the second row of pins. A normal sdcard only has one row so unless our phones have the extra row of connectors this card will probably not work.
But the only way to say for sure is to actually test it.

UHS-II is backward compatible with UHS-I. It will work, but you won't get the speed. You'll still be limited to 104 MB/s. So far as I know, all Samsung phones, including the Note 9, are UHS-I.

Doesnt work at its maximum potential. I have a SanDisk Extreme Pro UHS-II but max speed wouldnt go pass 100mbps.
