Quote from moon39482 :
Unless you have an Android phone manufactured before ~2017 and comes with a micro B port, this device is probably pointless to you.

Also never buy a flash drive/SD card these days unless you have a real use case for it. Trust me, you won't use it.
I would say, in very few cases, you would have a use for these.

1. installing a clean os
2. repair system files or diagnose problems
3. quick file and music transfers

For very large files, just go with a portable ssd. They're hitting rock bottom prices.

It's dead. But it seems like people didn't understand that this was an USB AND micro-USB drive. I bought 3 even though I'll never use the micro side. It'll permanently be a compact standard USB stick for $8! for 256gb!

While I mostly agree with you, can you really find a portable SSD for ~$8?

In 4 3. I don't get it. Why is it pointless or useless? I can use this thing to transfer my data from 1 pc to another. If I stick in my steam-deck dock, I can have extra 256GB much videos/movies or games.
I find that a lot of people impose their own use case on others in the comments, not thinking that someone else might have a different use than theirs. Quite handy to have a quarter of a TB of portable storage around for this and that. At this price, these are a great option for backing up desktop and laptop operating systems with all user files. There are many people out there whose entire disk image is less than 256GB.

Just get a c type adapter but yeah the design is pretty useless
Most microUSB to USB-C adapters won't work with this as they usually only transmit power and not data. Lots of reviews mention that adapters didn't work when they tried to use one to connect this to their phone.

I think he was talking about getting USB A to type C. Everyone seems to think this is a micro-USB ONLY drive. It's got a standard USB on one side. If you were to snap off the micro-USB, it'd be like a very compact standard USB drive (which you can adapt to type-C if you want).
