SanDisk MobileMate Micro Memory Card Reader - Retail Pack

Great little reader
Well my first thoughts when opening the package from Amazon were "Wow! It's tiny". Thankfully you get an attachment to stick it onto a key-ring else it would be very easy to lose :)

First tried the reader with a 4GB MicroSDHC card (also made by Sandisk), which fit into the reader very well. There was a nice "click" to it as the card slot into place.

The M2 cards don't fit quite as well. Due to the size of the card they slightly over-hang the end of the reader (as shown in the photo's at the top of the product page).

Both reading and writing to cards using the reader were very quick.

Overall I'm very impressed with the reader, and you can't really miss out when it's also so cheap.

Perfect - Highly Recommended.
I cannot rate this card reader highly enough. I've bought 4 in the last year; one is always in my phone case, one in the desk at work, one at home and one for my partner to use with her digital camera.

Couldn't be any smaller, very well made and tough too. Works a treat, timed it against one of those larger `61-in-1' type card readers and this micro marvel was 20 times faster at data transfer.

Works perfectly with the MicroSD card from my phone/PDA - means i can transfer data to any PC with this device alone, no longer need leads or special software.

Brilliant
It really is tiny! But a brilliant little card reader, comfortably taking both M2 and micro SD, and with a quick transfer rate. Highly recommended.

Memory Card Reader Mini SD MMC Mobile SDHC M2 TF XD CF

Be careful not to inhale it...
Like the previous reviewer I was taken aback by the tiny dimensions of this unit. The reason I knocked off one star is because you have to be quite accurate when putting cards into it. Not because it will break any pins, but because you need to get it angled just right to get the memory card in smoothly - in my case a standard size SD.
If you are a bit ham-fisted or have trouble with fine motor skills then you should look for a larger more forgiving unit.
The one I received was also black and had that nice 'rubberised' feel we see so often on gadgets these days.

Worked with Vista x64 (SP1) AND my Intel Mac (Leopard - 10.5.6) out of the box, no problems! No driver install needed. Note: the Mac will stay silent until you insert a memory card, whereas Windows will show a 'phantom' drive until you insert a memory card.

island-express got it to me in a single day!! - your milage may vary, but probably because of Royal-Snail rather than island-express...

Memory Card Reader Mini SD MMC Mobile SDHC M2 TF XD CF

Tiny but brilliant.
This products size took me by surprise! it is smaller than a credit card.However that is not a criticism far from it in fact, i think it is perfect for a laptop user that wants to keep things nice and tidy in their laptop bag.The one i recieved was black unlike the picture but that was not an issue.Service from island extra was excellent it came well packaged and arrived within 3 days.

Memory Card Reader Mini SD MMC Mobile SDHC M2 TF XD CF

truly awesome
i was having problems transfering pictures to and from a sony m2 card inserted in a sony ericcson mobile phone, it would get so far and tell me the device stopped working, so i purchased this.
it wouldnt install drivers at first but i unplugged another mass storage device and they installed ok then.
i then went to copy 500 plus pictures onto the card and it took about 5 seconds so i'm very pleased with this and highly recommend it to anyone.

New Sony Ericsson CCR80 Universal Micro-SD SDHC to USB Mobile Memory Card Reader

Ridiculously high maximum power rating
Got this free with a Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro phone.

This device announces to the thing it plugs into that it requires up to 500mA. In case you don't know, that's the absolute maximum current that USB can supply - it's enough to power things with motors and charge device batteries. A MicroSD card itself needs at most about 100mA. There is no way this device really needs that kind of current draw, it's just sloppy design. I've seen comparable SD adapters declare a max of 250mA.

This will most likely cause no problem if you're plugging this into a traditional PC, but what this means is if you plug it into a USB On-The-Go device like a media player, phone, or tablet it will not work because of its stated unnecessarily high power consumption. So fine for PC only use, but avoid if you want it to 'just work' everywhere.

New Sony Ericsson CCR80 Universal Micro-SD SDHC to USB Mobile Memory Card Reader

Too warm and juicey.
It works well enough but with two caveats. First, and foremost, this device requires a lot of usb juice to run. I tried it in a (Homer Simpsons' USB hub) with a wireless keyboard adapter in situ and just kept getting error ring noises from Win7. Once I removed the k/b adapter Win7 found the device ok and transferred data. Second, it made my usb hub get a bit too toasty for my liking, so I opted to stick it in a lone usb socket to stop the risk of premature aging or cooking the micro memory card.
Win7 has a habit of asking to scan and fix micro cards but it's usually unnecessary and best to opt for the 'continue' and not scan/fix option as Win7 can destroy the structure that is needed by phones/tablets etc. which can be so for formatting too. There is a driver dl available for sdhc etc. cards on the MS website specific to formats for micro cards - assuming you have a genuine MS copy as it requires validation.

Quality Product
When I ordered my new Sony Ericson CCR80 Universal Micro-SD SDHC to USB Mobile Memory Card Reader I was not expecting it to be of the quality it turned out to be.

This is well designed product and feels like a quality product. I was so impressed that I ordered 2 more to have as a spare.

LUPO SDHC & SD Memory Card Reader (Supports Windows & Mac)

Great Product
I purchased this item with the thinking that at the price it was I wasn't losing a lot if it didn't work. I received the item very quickly after ordering. It worked brilliantly with a 8Gb SDHC card that I purchased it for but also worked well with smaller capacity cards.It does say on the product that it supports Windows from 98SE onwards and Mac OS 9.0. But I can also comfirm that it works on Linux which is the OS that I use. If you want a small SD/SDHC Reader/Writer you cannot go far wrong with one of these.

Does exactly what it should
This item does exactly what it says it can, i bought it to use with a 16gb SDHC card and with the first time of using it I have had no problems, the red light indicator to tell you when the SD card is in place and is processing is also great to have on an item like this, overall a great item at a great price !

Great little gadget...
I bought one of these to enable my wife to transfer photos and videos from our digital camera to her windows 7 PC.
The packaging itself doesn't state that the reader supports Win 7 but it does...Win 7 detected it without any problems.
A good sturdy design and good service from the supplier.

New 2 in 1 USB 2.0+SD Card Reader for Apple iPad 2/ 3

Well it worked for me!
I had read mixed reviews but decided to take a chance in view of the low price and the poor reviews of the kit sold by Apple themselves. The item came promptly and worked straight out of the box. My camera is a Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ30. I had a slight concern because the images are not held directly within the DCIM folder but within a sub-folder of it. However my iPad 3 coped with this just fine.

I really appreciated the follow-up email from the seller. I did not need it but it gave the impression that if my experience had not been so good then they were ready to help. Well done!

FANTASTIC!!
This is a fantastic gadget for a fantastic price! I put my SD card into the reader, plugged it directly into my iPad 2, and there were all my photos!! No more syncing with my computer. Also given the option of just selecting certain photos to import, and not the whole card full! Brilliant!! Arrived in 2 days...5*****

New 2 in 1 USB 2.0+SD Card Reader for Apple iPad 2/ 3

Waste of money
I was planning on taking this on holiday with me so I could look at my pictures from my camera on my iPad. It doesn't work, it's not even the same product described on the page. It is not compatible with my iPad 3rd gen and there is no LED indicator. I'm very annoyed as in the title it states that the product is for iPad 2/3 but doesn't even work.

Want to return this and get a refund but now I don't even have time to get a new one before I leave for holiday.

As with the other reviewers, I found this cheap and simple device faster and better than my computer's original equipment. My Acer's built-in card reader wasn't up to reading SDHC, but this is neat and tidy and very efficient. Don't have worries that it's too cheap to be good; it's amazingly good value.

Anker® Uspeed USB 3.0 Superspeed Multi-in-1 Card Reader 4-Slots for SDXC, SDHC, SD, CF, High-Speed CF (UDMA), MS, M2, Micro SDXC, Micro SDHC, Micro SD Cards [Support UHS-I]

USpeed Multi-Card Reader
I recently bought some SDHC and SDXC cards for use with my SLR and Phone only to find my existing multi-card reader did not like them due to the 32Gb limit (and being over 10 years old). After spending a few hours trawling the web and various sites I decided upon the USpeed device as it looked pretty decent, not too big and explicitly stated support for SDXC cards. Surprisingly many devices out there DO NOT support the newer large memory card formats so beware.

Firstly, the service from the vendor was excellent. The device was shipped and arrived on time (I requested next day delivery as had an urgent requirement). It was packaged well in a small box and jiffy, so well protected. The device is smaller than I originally expected which is only a good thing, and looks well made.

I immediately tried the device on my XP based Desktop PC and it worked 100% quickly transferring over 30Gb to a 64Gb micro SDXC card. Could not ask for more. Next I tried it on my trusted...

Weak Pins
Have now found that this product although looking good, small and ideal for some camera / pad / laptop. Where your using the main SD slots.
But beware on the larger compact slot. On the second time of use. The pins on one end have flattened. Closer inspection shows that the metal used for the pins is very poor quality. Hence why the pins have bent.

It works well on the smaller slots where contact pins are not used. Otherwise if you use, like I do for certain Pro type of Cameras the larger Compact slot. Go buy a far better product.

Pins bent after a few uses.
This does not have a very satisfactory slot in for the card, it doesn't seem deep enough compared to the ethernet reader I had before and this means that you can't feel if it has gone very well and hence i pushed it in further because it wasn't eading and it buckled one of the pins and is now rendered useless. Give it a miss!

Update:
After posting this review the supplier contacted me and sent a replacement product, still same design which I think is at fault, the supplier assured me this was a one off and was was very keen to rectify the problem, so you have no worries on the service front :0)

Sony Ericsson Ccr-70 Card Reader

Awesome product
I think this device is brilliant.

I have never used all the features on my phones before now because I found adding/copying files too time consuming and often tricky to set up (I'm lazy and a tad technophobic so if it isn't straightforward I won't do it)

This device solves all those problems for me. There is no software needed for simple uploading of pictures and copying/transfering, and the USB means that it can be done without the hassle of wires, anywhere.

It is also inexpensive, so I now have a backup.

Sony Ericsson Ccr-70 Card Reader
This is an excellent product, it does what the specification says. It is portable, stable and very easy to use. Just insert the phone card into the slot in the reader and connect to a spare USB port. The reader does the rest, click on the reader icon and up comes the contents of the phone card. Simply click and drag audio files from your computer to the phone card. Handling photos is also easy to manapulate. I run Windows Vista on my desktop and have had no problems whatsoever with the reader. I have tried other M2 phone card readers which have not been so consistent. I would certainly rate it 5 out of 5.

Sony Ericsson Ccr-70 Card Reader

Not recomended
I bought this reader because of good reviews but as the card wouldnt stay in the card reader I have given it a one star rating.
I purchased the reader from Star e-shop, I contacted them through Amazon but the seller didn't reply.
The reader obviously can't read the memory card if it won't stay in, it just drops out as some kind of catch must be broken inside. I put the reader in the bin!

Fast USB 3.0 Single Slot SD, SDHC, SDXC Card Reader / Writer

Very fast & inexpensive USB 3.0 card reader
I needed a fast USB 3.0 SD card reader to be able to quickly copy photos from the DSLR.
Couldn't find any speed reviews/tests but as the reader was very cheap, decided to give it a go.

Reader arrived within 2 days and as soon as it did, I tested it using the following hardware:
Computers:
- USB 3.0 Laptop 1 (Sandy Bridge, i7-2677m - ULV)
- USB 3.0 Laptop 2 (Sandy Bridge, i5-2450m - slightly faster)

SD Cards:
- Sandisk Extreme III 30MB/sec
- Sandisk Extreme Pro 95MB/sec

Benchmark:
- Crystal Disk Mark, Sequential Read/Write 5x100MB

Results:
Sandisk Extreme III -
- Laptop 1 - 30.3 MB/sec read and 30.2 MB/sec write
- Laptop 2 - 32.0 MB/sec read and 28.1 MB/sec write
Sandisk Extreme Pro -
- Laptop 1 - 67.7 MB/sec read and 67.5 MB/sec write
- Laptop 2 - 78.4 MB/sec read and 71.4 MB/sec write

Fast USB 3.0 Single Slot SD, SDHC, SDXC Card Reader / Writer

10/10 A Fantastic little device!
I've been using this device for 3 months or so and it's performed flawlessly.

Using this with a class 10 SD card I have consistently maxed out the read performance of the card at 45MB/s which has saved huge amounts of time transferring photos and doing things like OS installations (Linux Ubuntu etc).

For such a cheap device I have been seriously impressed with it's performance. It's been totally reliable whenever I've used it and I can highly recommend it for anyone looking for a decent, fast and cheap SD card reader.

Fast USB 3.0 Single Slot SD, SDHC, SDXC Card Reader / Writer

Does the job nicely
I bought this to grab RAW files taken on a DSLR from a recent trip. My P&S camera wouldn't show them as it would only show JPEG's. Found this little gem and I'm very pleased with it. I do have a USB3.0 socket in my PC and was really happy with the read speeds. Didn't bother with a full test, as I wasn't in a huge rush to transfer approx 30 files. If I find time, I'll run some speed tests and report back.
As soon as I plugged in, my PC (Windows 7 Home Premium) picked it up instantly, and was ready to go almost immediately.
Agree with someone else who mentioned the cap is a bit flimsy, but I have other drives intended for portability, so that doesn't impact me. Build quality could be better, but for this price, I won't complain.
