The write speed is not that important. As for read speed, you'll want decent performance.

@erv Yeah, you don't want to be buying a sluggish card that's for sure - but, as Digital Foundry pointed out, anything above UHS1 is going to be a waste of money...the Switch doesn't utilise the extra performance of a high speed card (eg. SanDisk Extreme)

I've done quite a bit of research on microSD cards for my Switch and based on my finds the UH-1 cards perform about the same. A card with 90MB/s vs 90MB/s read time translates into only a 0.1s difference in load time when booting up Zelda. Based on in game testing he SanDisk Ultra microSD card is one of the top choices. I did a full review of it along with addition options on my website if anyone wants to check it out. I also wouldn't go below 128GB for storage especially with games like Zelda being 13.4GB at release.
