May 16, 2025 – At the 2025 China International Photographic & Optoelectronic Expo (CHINA P&E), Lexar, the premium global memory solutions brand, unveiled its comprehensive suite of professional storage technologies at Booth T1106 in Hall 11 of the Beijing Exhibition Center. Themed “Expand Creative Boundaries,” this presentation underscores Lexar’s commitment to redefining storage reliability for content creators operating in high-stakes environments.
Lexar ARMOR Series Unveiled
Lexar’s ARMOR Series memory cards break new ground as the world’s first stainless steel storage solution, achieving 37 times greater crush resistance than standard plastic cards while earning the prestigious TIPA World Awards 2025. The series launches with two configurations: GOLD (205MB/s write) and SILVER PRO (160MB/s write), both capable of handling 6K 30P video capture alongside RAW+JPEG burst shooting workflows. When paired with UHS-II readers, these cards deliver 280MB/s read speeds, slashing transfer times for high-resolution content. With capacities ranging from 64GB to 1TB and IP68 certification, they survive dust immersion, water submersion up to 1.5 meters, joule-level electrostatic discharge, and temperature extremes. Visitors can test these cards against controlled stress scenarios during live demonstrations, while those bearing the surname “Gang” receive exclusive purchase incentives. Social media engagement also unlocks real-time rewards through photographic activations with metallic-costumed brand ambassadors.
CFexpress 4.0 Breakthrough Lineup
Lexar’s latest CFexpress 4.0 portfolio features Type B DIAMOND, GOLD, SILVER series alongside the innovative GOLD CFexpress 4.0 Type A cards. All models harness PCIe 4.0 protocol to deliver unprecedented performance, with the flagship DIAMOND CFexpress 4.0 Type B reaching 3,700MB/s read, 3,400MB/s sustained write speeds, and VPG400 certification for lossless 8K RAW video capture. This represents a quantum leap from prior generations, strategically positioning Lexar to capitalize on the growing demand for high-speed storage among cinema-grade production teams.
Democratizing Storage Innovation
While catering to Hollywood-tier professionals, Lexar simultaneously expands accessibility through its enhanced SD3.0 series. The proprietary controller technology in SILVER family cards – comprising SDXC UHS-I, SILVER PLUS SDXC UHS-I, and SILVER PLUS microSDXC UHS-I options – breaks traditional speed constraints, offering smartphone filmmakers and hobbyists enhanced performance for 4K video editing and burst photography. This dual-market strategy aligns with industry analyst predictions about segment diversification in the $68.2B global memory card market.
Emerging Workflows Unveiled
Beyond flash memory, Lexar demonstrated complete storage ecosystems. The Professional Workflow desktop backup station integrates multi-drive mirroring for post-production houses, while the compact Workflow Go portable docking station provides field data assurance for itinerant creators. The PLAY PRO microSDXC Express Card bridges immersive content capture opportunities for vloggers, complementing the rugged 700-series armored SSDs that combine military-grade shock protection with read speeds surpassing 450MB/s in endurance-focused markets.
Promotional Surge Drives Adoption
Booth promotions create immediate commercial traction: product bundles reach 30% discounts, 100,000 instant-win scratch-off prizes are available across Lexar’s product range, and certified technicians provide emergency data recovery solutions. Strategic collaboration with JD.com offers cross-platform incentives, positioning Lexar for market share growth acceleration in the weeks following photo industry’s premier event.
Peter Atherton, Lexar’s VP of Global Strategy, told CNBC: “The ARMOR Series redefines what creative professionals should expect from portable storage. As 8K workflows become standard and remote location shoots grow increasingly extreme, our stainless steel technology challenges conventional material limitations.” During P&E week, Lexar’s Beijing Exhibition Center showcase reinforces its position as WD’s premium sister brand following the 2023 acquisition, with executives stating channel adjustments reflect expanded R&D investments across Yangtze River Delta research centers ahead of the IFA 2025 release cycle.
