This SanDisk iXpand Flash Drive is one of the best ways to add additional storage capacity to an iPad or iPhone. Find out how easy it is in this review.
Android users have always enjoyed expanding storage capabilities of their devices using either memory cards or USB drives. Apple, on the other hand, has never added an expansion slot on the iPhone.
+ Easy transfer to iOS devices; + Long Battery Life; + Nice App
- Large in Size
Using a iPad or iPhone you have grown to having fixed storage on these devices. They don't have expandable storage card slots like some android devices and you are pretty much stuck with what you have.
Storage on iPhone and iPad can become a problem if you buy a smaller device than perhaps you need. And let's be honest, most of us might think we can get away with the smallest capacity, only to become frustrated when we end up using it a lot more than we thought we would.
SanDisk's iXpand flash drive brings additional storage to your Apple iOS device, but is the performance it offers enough?
Picked up a 16GB iPhone or iPad and realised you can't store much on it? Time to pick up one of the best after-market storage gadgets we've seen in recent memory: the Sandisk iXpand Drive for iPhone and iPad.
SanDisk's iXpand is a dual-pronged memory drive with a Lighting connector on one end and a USB interface on the other. It's designed to solve two problems: the first is the alleged difficulty in getting photos off your iPhone or iPad; the second is iOS devices' lack of expandable storage.
Easy to use; Plays back almost any media file; Clean and simple app
Bulky; No USB 3.0; Apple's ecosystem limits what the iXpand can actually back-up
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
My wife and I recently returned from our honeymoon in the American Southwest. We toured the Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Lake Powell and the Hoover Dam over the course of nine wonderful days.
