Customers say
Customers find the memory card reader works perfectly for its purpose, is easy to use, and appreciate its compact and lightweight design. They consider it good value for money and praise its solid construction. However, the build quality receives mixed feedback, with some finding it well-made while others report poor quality. Moreover, the SD card slot experiences failures, and customers note that the cable is very short.

Fantastic little device
I’m using this product to transfer photos taken on my camera (sd card) to my phone (apple) for quick access and posting to social media sites, and it’s absolutely perfect.The box contains the actual device, a micro sd card adapter, a charging cable (you will need to plug it into a usb slot, so either a computer or a usb adapter plug – this is NOT included) a bag which fits everything in, and instructions [I have photographed all of these]The writing of the instructions is quite small, but the set up is easy enough. You have to charge it up first, then turn it on by holding the power button for 3 seconds. The battery and wifi lights should turn on & when they’ve stopped flashing they’re ready. Then connect your device (I’m using my phone) to the wifi (the name of it and the password are written on the bottom of the product, these can both be changed in settings). Now put your sd card/usb stick in and open the files and view/save them.I haven’t tried putting photos onto sd card or usb from my phone yet, or transferring any files other than photos.The only downside of this product is the app, which is in need of being updated. It’s a little tricky to navigate, but once you know which buttons mean what, its fine.I would definitely recommend this product, especially to those who want to save/post photos on the go (like me!)

Does the job very well and it has blue lights!!
Come on what man doesn’t love a device with blue lights??Sorry on a more serious note this is a very good little USB hub and card reader.It’s very quick at reading my high speed SD cards (SanDisk Extreme III’s) have had a usb webcam, memory stick and smart phone connected all at the same time with no trouble.It feels robust and very well made and given its made by PNY you know its a good brand.Worked with no problems at all straight out of the box.For this sort of money you cannot go wrong… oh, did I mention it also has blue lights??

Pny Reader – Good for money – Wish for more though
Have been using for a few months now. Does what it says on the tin and works great for me.Just a couple of things to note:* As I read on a previous review, you sometimes have to be careful iserting memory cards due to the alignment of the inside pins to the casing. Manage fine and seems okay with the SD cards I use. I tend to use Micro SD cards with a Micro SD > SD converter as it’s easier to push them in & align and also I tend to use in camera with SD slots.* This does not support hot-plugging memory cards. This means you can’t leave it plugged in when you insert a memory card. I wish it did support, as it would mean (with an extension lead, see below) I would be able to leave it on my desk plugged in. Every time you insert/remove memory card, you also need to unplug/plugin usb cable to the reader.* USB Lead is very short. very limiting in where you plug it in, and on a desktop PC can mean that you need to leave it dangling off it’s cable which just doesn’t seem right at all. Works fine plugged into extension cable but also need to make sure you unplug and plug in as per above.

Essential connectivity for a new laptop
The PNY reader is a bit bigger than the old style memory sticks. New laptops seem to have fewer ports than a decade ago but I still need to connect old-style peripherals and storage.

Brilliant!
My old card reader had to be thrown out when a card snapped off inside so instead of getting the same one again I decided to get this one as it not only gives me the slots I need for my camera cards but also the three extra USBs and you can never have enough of them on the front of a desktop!! It has a long enough lead to plug in and sit on top of the tower instead of dangling in front like most do.

Terrific Value – Design not thought out
I am not entirely sure what type of computer this device is aimed at. It’s quite small and compact – so may suit a laptop better than a PC. As it happens, I bought it for a PC – mainly to extend the reach of the PC USB ports (the computer is in a hard-to-reach place), rather than to increase the number of ports available. Having the card readers built in is a bonus – but not something I bought this product for.As it turns out, this item is not really suited as a USB port extender. This is due to the length of the USB cable, which is incredibly short. The only way I have managed to make use of it is to add a further extension cable.

Best one I’ve had
I found this a good little hub/reader. I have used it regularly for some time, and the cards are easy to get in which can sometimes be a problem. I have gone through card readers very quickly. I don’t know why they seem so fragile, but I used to get through one per year. This one is now two and a bit and going strong.The only negative is that the blue light is fairly annoying. It’s being picky, because it does the job well, but do I need a blue LED telling me it’s connected?

Mi è servito tantissimo molto utile per quei computer che non hanno porte per schede sd, molto utile per scaricare foto
Elisabetta –
purtroppo è estremamente instabile, si disconnette sempre e non si riesce a portare a termine neanche il trasferimento di piccoli files perchè la connessione non è stabile.Peccato perchè è piccolo e maneggevole, funziona bene solo per collegare le schede SD al PC via USB-C.
