Versatile card reader for mobile and desktop

This Manw card reader connects to iPhone, iPad, Android phones and computers using both Lightning and USB-C ports. It supports iOS 12.0 and later as well as OTG-enabled Android devices. Photographers and creators can transfer files between cameras and mobile devices without a computer. The reader accepts CF, SD, SDHC, SDXC, Micro SD, TF, MMC and RS-MMC cards.

Aluminium enclosure with plug-and-play operation

The all-metal housing protects the internal circuitry while remaining compact enough for a camera bag. No drivers or external power are required; the reader draws power directly from the host device. Lightning transfers run at 12 MB/s to 16 MB/s and USB-C transfers at 10 MB/s to 16 MB/s. Heat and noise are negligible during normal file transfers.

Sustained transfer speeds stay within the rated

Under continuous use the Lightning port maintains 12 MB/s to 16 MB/s and the USB-C port maintains 10 MB/s to 16 MB/s. Performance does not drop below these figures during long copy sessions. The reader is not suited for users who need faster sustained throughput or support for card formats not listed above.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the Lightning end to my iPhone running iOS 12.0 and what step is often missed?

Plug the Lightning connector directly into the iPhone port; the step users miss is ensuring the iPhone is unlocked so the Photos app can open and recognise the inserted card.

Will the aluminium housing or the Lightning and USB-C connectors need any routine replacement?

The all-metal enclosure has no moving parts and the connectors are solid-state, so no scheduled maintenance or part replacement is required under normal use.

At what transfer rate will the Lightning interface bottleneck sustained copying of large video files?

The Lightning port tops out at 16 MB/s, so extended transfers will settle at that ceiling rather than the higher USB-C rate.
