The SanDisk iXpand is a flash drive that allows OTG transfers between your computer and your iOS devices. It isn't just your ordinary USB OTG drive and has a few tricks up it's sleeve. Let's dive into our review to learn more about the device and how it performs.

When was the last time that you paid more than R1 000 for a 32 GB flash drive? Personally, I've never had to cough up that much, which is why the new SanDisk iXpand Flash Drive 's R1 500 price tag is so surprising.

Well constructed; Quick and easy to use app

Overpriced; Lighting connection not flexible enough

The idea behind the SanDisk iXpand Flash drive is simple. Essentially a USB thumb drive that's equipped with a Lightning connector, it's all you need for an excellent storage expansion for your iPad (or iPhone).

The SanDisk iXpand Flash Drive instantly adds up to 128GB of storage space and it can work as a USB thumbdrive; Its iXpand Sync mobile app works very well both for media playback and content backup

The drive can't hold files larger than 4GB and only supports USB 2.0

So simple to use, just plug it into the phone, down load the app and upload my photos. Thank easy.

flash drive was my need , because I have iphone 7..so its required drive...sand disk is the brand with less price..you have good offers..

The SanDisk iXpand Flash Drive is a fast, handy way to increase storage on your iPhone or iPad, but we encountered some reliability issues in testing.

Fast read speeds; Built-in file manager; Integrated media playback and auto-backup

Flimsy connector cable; App crashed repeatedly when transferring large files in testing

This is a fantastic little gem! I bought this for myself to have a small, convenient backup for my phone's photos and videos and I'm very happy with it. In fact, I'm so happy with it I've ordered my husband one for his phone as well! You just plug it in to your phone and away you go.

SanDisk's iXpand Flash drive delivers what it promises to. Priced close to Rs.3990 for a 16GB variant, you will definitely find cheaper options available in the market if you can compromise on the looks and the multi-feature application.

Slim and pocketable design; Directly record and play content from the drive; Easy transfer with automatic backup

Large files cannot be transfered due to file format restriction

Apple 's iPhone users have traditionally struggled with the storage space they get in their devices. There are two reasons for this: one, extra storage on a iOS device comes at a premium; two, iOS does not offer options like expandable storage, which is popular in Android devices.

This a great extra for your iPhone or iPad. I used it to backup photos on both. Since I bought mine, I have ordered two to give as gifts.
