PNY 1TB PRO Elite V3 Type-C USB slips to $199.99

$40 below where this usually sits. A 1000MB/s flash drive that fits in your pocket is still one of the fastest ways to move large files without carrying a cable. PNY 1TB PRO Elite V3 Type-C USB drops to $199.99 - save $40. That is a real cut off the $239.99 list price, and it lands below the $229.71 this drive has averaged over the last 30 days. The PRO Elite V3 has held near list for most of the year, so a $40 trim is worth a look if you have been waiting on a Type-C drive with actual throughput. The metal build and the speed ratings are what separate it from the pile of cheap thumb drives sitting at the same capacity.

Get This Deal

For just $199.99, down from its list price of $239.99, you get a drive rated for read speeds up to 1000MB/s and write speeds up to 800MB/s. That is desktop-class transfer speed in a Type-C stick, which matters when you are moving 4K footage or a full photo library between devices. The 90-day average sits at $216.38, so this price undercuts the recent norm.

What You're Getting

Compatibility runs wide: the latest Type-C iPhones and iPads (iPhone 15, 3rd gen iPad and newer), Android phones and tablets, plus newer PC and Mac laptops and desktops. No external app is needed, the Files app already on your device handles transfers.

Just keep in mind that a thick case can block the Type-C port, so check your fit before you rely on it daily.

Who This Is For

Best for content creators, designers, and gamers who move large files between Type-C gear and full-size machines. If you shoot Full HD or 4K video and want a drive that keeps up with the card, this is the tier to buy.

If your workflow is a cloud folder and a few documents, a cheaper drive will do the same job.

The Caveat

The 1TB price still sits well above the all-time low of $77.99, so this is not the cheapest this drive has ever been. Buyers who can wait for a deeper cut should watch the price rather than jump today.

Final Verdict

If you need real transfer speed on a Type-C device and 1TB of room to match, $199.99 is a fair entry point for the PRO Elite V3. Skip it if your files are small or you already have fast external storage.
