Samsung Electronics, the world's top memory chipmaker, said on March 12 it has developed the industry's first eight-gigabyte flash memory card for mobile handsets.
The "moviNAND" can store and process data twice as fast as existing four-gigbyte memory cards, the South Korean firm said in a statement. Its mass-production is due in the year's second quarter, Samsung said.
The new card can memorise the equivalent of to 2,000 songs or map data big enough to run a global positioning system but it is up to 20 percent smaller than its industry peers, it said.
