Anker's Dual SD and MicroSD Card Reader Drops Below $10, It Feels Like a Giveaway
It disappoints me that in an effort to make our consumer tech thinner and sleeker, manufacturers are opting to remove features that used to come at a standard. The biggest culprit has been Apple starting the trend to ditch the AUX port on our phones. Right now though I want to talk about laptops, of which many have lost their SD card slots in the past decade or so. For photographers and videographers, this a port as important as the USB slot—and now it's gone. Thankfully accessories that can add this compatibility don't come too expensive. Plus right now, Anker has its 2-in-1 SD card reader discounted by 50%. At Amazon, you can grab this dual-slot card reader for just $9, down from $18. That's a $9 savings for a limited time. See at Amazon The Anker SD card reader has two slots built-in. We get one for a standard SD card and one for MicroSD. It's universal in its compatibility. The SD slot works with SDHC, RS-MMC, SD cards, and MMC Micro. Just next to it, the MicroSD slot works with microSDXC, microSDHC, and microSD. The unit is super compact, only about the same size as any old USB flash drive. The card reader can connect to your laptop over USB-C. Kind of remarkable, it can also connect to newer phones or tablets that use USB-C. So you can move photos or videos to and from your phone if you have a need to. The design is phone case friendly with its optimized connector and body shape. It's always a minor inconvenience to need to remove your phone case when wanting to use it with something so it's nice to see that's not an issue here with the Anker card reader. It's plug and play meaning you can hot swap cards as you need to immediately access any of your stored data. Data can transfer crazy fast at 5Gbps. You can sync a picture album or library of music is just seconds. Anker is a huge brand when it comes to any thing and everything consumer tech. Its carved a name for itself with its chargers, power banks, and other accessories. You can expect the same reliability here with its SD card reader. And right now, you can get it for pretty much next to nothing. Amazon normally lists the Anker SD and MicroSD dual-card reader for $18. After the 50% discount, you'll be getting it for just $9.
