SanDisk is a leader when it comes to flash storage, although they're still a bit new in the app-creation game. While attending CES 2014, I had the chance to speak one-on-one with SanDisk about the current and upcoming products. If you ever wondered, SanDisk is one of those companies that actively listens to user feedback and executes in a timely fashion. Since I had last toyed around with the SanDisk Wireless Media Drive, the app had undergone some radical changes for overall improvement. I also got to hear about some other upcoming news too. Before I left, they gave me one of their latest SanDisk Connect 64GB Wireless Flash Drives and encouraged me to take a fresh look. Compared to my previous experience with the Connect app, the difference in feel and experience has been like night and day. Design While some may feel it to be too big, I think the SanDisk Connect 64GB Wireless Flash Drive is the perfect size.

There is a single button that switches the device on and off by means of a long press. The orange and blue LEDs indicate battery and wireless activity. The SanDisk Connect wireless flash drive gets slightly warm while in use, but not to the point where it's uncomfortable to handle. When plugged into a USB port, the SanDisk acts like any typical flash drive. But switch it on, and users can access and stream wirelessly through the Android and iOS app. SanDisk Connect App Compared to my experience last year with the SanDisk Connect app, the current version shows great improvement and overhaul. Not just the layout and navigation, but the functions and features have been simplified and streamlined too. Thankfully, SanDisk has set the flash drive's security password such that it works for network and direct-connect access. Previously, strangers were able to see and access the drive freely. The password as well as the drive's name can… Continue reading TechnologyTell Review: SanDisk Connect Wireless Flash Drive The post TechnologyTell Review: SanDisk Connect Wireless Flash Drive appeared first on GadgeTell.  | |
