    I didn't have high hopes for this little guy as all my laptop SD card readers have been faulty in the past. But am currently in the process of transferring 50GB of files from one microSD card to another (one of them is in a SD-microSD adapter which came with the microSD card) and it's working flawlessly with constant speed. Didn't need to install anything, windows immediately recognized the two cards and allowed me to move files between them. I'm getting around 25 MB/s between the two cards, and that's understandable as the PC needs to read from one card and put into the other on the same USB interface, and the cards aren't the fastest around.

    Also I was really impressed with the build quality. The plastics seem very strong and have a nice feel, the tolerances and tightness on the USP caps are perfect, and it's just a very pleasant object to hold and use. I've rarely had any USB stick-like devices that seem this well built, especially at this price point. Haven't used the USB-C port yet, but will likely work fine like the other end. Although note that I would have to remove my phone case to use this with my phone as there isn't enough clearance. The microSD slot in the adapter is spring loaded; the SD slot is not. It even came with a little lanyard.

    One flaw I noticed was that there's no indication that I noticed that tells you which orientation you're supposed to insert the cards. I guessed that the metal contacts on both cards should face the middle of the adapter (so the logos of the cards are facing outwards) and that turned out to be correct.
