Basically UHS-I capability  (sd-uhs-sdr12, sd-uhs-sdr25, sd-uhs-sdr50,
sd-uhs-sdr104) help tune speed supported for mmc

I have tired to compare the speed on high speed UHS-I vs ultra high
speed UHS-I using izone utility.

My observation is that their slight increase in read/write operation.

Hope I have tried to answer you query. If I am wrong please let me know.
