Samsung EVO (+) and Sandisk UHS-1 Class 10 are the only one I use for AMLogic devices because these have Superior Random 4K Read/Write performance to all others. Especially important for small KB Kodi Artwork files.
SD Cards marketed as 80Mb/s Sequential read speeds may be important for large MB file used on such things as Phone Camera's when using Pictures, but not so much for Kodi.
Honestly the speed of a Samsung SD card is not that far behind, for day to day use of LE Kodi vs eMMC, if you don't have a Massive Library. I would not call it slow by any means.
BTW: Try playing any 10bit HEVC video files on the RPi3 and tell me how far you get.
