Pros: Small little card reader for easy carrying. Fast file transfer. LED lights lights up indicating reading and insertion into USB port.
Cons: Due to size and no markings to indicate which way to insert into USB port it can be forced in upside down which will deform/scratch the sides of the plastic housing.
Other Thoughts: dimensions are: 1.067" (27.1mm) long 0.556" (14.1mm)at widest part 0.074" (1.88mm) thick.
Bottomline: Great little card reader for microSD cards making them easy to carry thumbdrives. Just don't lose it since it can be misplaced very easily. This is so cheap just buy one you won't regret it unless you lose or misplace it.
Pros: It reads not only microSD but also microSDHC. I keep this in my wallet, that's how small it is. I keep a 4GB microSDHC card in it at all times. Its amazing to say i keep my 4GB flash drive in my wallet.
Cons: Its con but also a major pro: its size. I love the fact that its so small and fits in my wallet but, I must have left this in my school's library computers like 20 times w/ a 4GB flash drive in it. Luckily, I got it back every time.
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline: I LOVE IT and you would love it too. There are others similar and cheaper, but this one is great. I would recommend this to any and everyone.
Pros: very small form, no needless parts. easy to put and pull the card.no driver required, under linux i used so fast, nice write and read speed. i can carry everywhere in my keychain.
Cons: the string is not the best solution, easy to screw out and lost the reader with card. i replaced to a simple one.under windows xp not work instantly, but when i replug some times it worked. i don't know what happened. under linux this was not problem.
Other Thoughts: if you want a really small card reader, or a really small pendrive buy it (and a 8GB microSDHC card). all files will with you in your keychain.
Bottomline: cheap and practical gadget.
Pros: 1. Super small2. Good price3. Blue LED indicates activity & status of reader4. A place to thread a lanyard or string thru5. Memory card slots in securely, does not come out or drop out too easily
Cons: 1. Since the design of the reader requires it to slot into the cavity of the USB port, there are times when a well-used or older USB port which has it's metal flanges bent open by repeated or careless insertion or removal of devices will result in this card reader not recognized or have a poor connection.2. Recessed contacts of this reader is good to prevent any damage, but makes the situation mentioned above even worse if the USB port you are plugging into is not in good condition.
Other Thoughts: Although a little larger, I would prefer to get readers which are 'full-sized' instead of the slotted types. At least the connection is more secure.
Bottomline: Get it if absolute compactness is paramount.
