What it is
The Hetai Tech 3.1 8-in-1 card reader adds Micro SD access and standard USB 2.0 connectivity to devices that only offer a Type-C port. It is aimed at laptop, tablet and phone users who need to move files from a TF card without carrying a separate hub.
Capacity and headroom
The single TF slot accepts Micro SDHC cards formatted with FAT32; NTFS and exFAT volumes are not recognised. Transfer speeds are limited by the USB 2.0 interface, so large batches of photos or video will move noticeably slower than on a USB 3.1 host.
Thermals noise and power
The ABS shell measures 73 mm by 18 mm by 9 mm and weighs 9.7 g, so it adds negligible bulk and draws minimal bus power. No fan or active cooling is present; the reader runs silently and stays cool during normal file transfers.
