Libra 2 Rev 3 Slow SD Card
Just wanted to share that my 2023 revision Libra 2 white came with a extremely slow internal SD card, which caused slow page turns, slower sleep and wake.
If I didn't have my wife's gen 1 libra 2 to compare, I would have just assumed it was the processing power of the device. However, upon taking the device apart and taking the SD card out - the 1st Gen Libra 2 had a SD card that was around 7x faster in RND4K writes and maybe 2x faster RND4K read vs the card that came with the 2023 revision.
I have replaced both with RASPBERRY PI SD CARD - 64GB, from Digikey, which from both synthetic benchmarks and also empirical testing, performed the quickest with sleep/wake and page turns - close seconds were the Lexar Silver Plus 64gb and the Kingston Canvas Go! 64gb. The rasperry pi card was both cheaper and faster - likely more optimized for smaller reads and writes, instead of writing 4k video.
The difference is night and day, pages turn instantly.
