IOGEAR USB-C Duo Card Reader/Writer

I have had a usb 2.0 adapter for years, and recently tried to use it while monitoring its read and write speeds. Needless to say, if was plugging along at a mere 1-1.5 Mb/s. I got this adapter as its replacement, and was not disappointed with difference. It managed read and write speeds of 70-75Mb/s with both type A and type C connections. The card being used was rated for speeds of 90-100Mb/s, but I cannot verify whether the bottleneck was the adapter or the card itself. So for the time being, I am satisfied with its performance and sturdy build.

I bought this to give myself an easy way to back up pictures from my phone when I'm out traveling and might not have convenient access to my laptop. I have lots of memory cards laying around and the price of memory cards is always dropping so this seemed like a better option than buying a USB-C flash storage drive. It works as expected; plug and play functionality with my Android phone and my Windows PC.

Comes in handy since it is both USB and USB Type-C! Loses 1 star because I tried to use the converter AND edit the pictures on my phone at the same time and it did not work. I had to transfer the pictures to my phone manually and then edit on my phone and transfer back to my SD Card

I got this to replace having to put my sd card in my phone or tablet to be able to transfer videos and pictures to my computer. So far it has been working great and it reads the card fast when connected to the computer. It may be a little pricey but it works great.

What a super handy tool!!! Our SD slot in our computer has seen better days and it was terribly difficult to get the SD card to read. This was a super easy and inexpensive fix to the problem. It makes transferring photos from the camera super easy now.
