Imation/Patriot USB OTG 2-in-1 solutions

goofball2k · Mar 6, 2014

These looks interesting

Not sure of the speeds of this but probably sufficient for viewing on tablets.
Can't find any detail on the weight of it, hoping it wouldn't be too heavy and place stress on the connector in landscape mode.
Only USB 2.0 though.

For those that want USB 3.0, there's the Patriot stellar

Then for those that want to use their own microsd, there's the Patriot Cosmos

Corsair also has their flash voyager go.

Anyone have experiences with these?

The Imation looks pretty cool. I like the little swivel that makes it one piece. I ordered the Meenova and got it a few weeks back. This is my first experience with any OTG, so I really have nothing to compare it to. It took me a little bit to get it working correctly, but that was my own fault for not having a compatible rom/kernel. After I flashed SlimKat, and downloaded Nexus File Manager from the Play Store, it works perfectly. So far, I am really happy that I purchased the Meenova. I'd be interested to hear about someone who has used any of the products linked in the OP.

I'm sure you have seen the Meenova, but in case you haven't, here is a picture.

I've have a Meenova for about a month and can't recommend it enough. Price and functionality make it a huge winner in my books. Here is a link to my initial experiences with a Meenova. It includes pictures with my N5 and Spiegel Ultra Hybrid case. Also with the announcement of 128GB micoSD cards there has been many sales on all sizes of cards including 64GB which the Meenova supports. So far I have not seen whether the Meenova can handle the 128GB cards but their Web site had an in brackets comment beside the 64GB stating "largest available" and the reader supports the same standard as required by the 128GB cards.

I have the Leef. It's a great price on Amazon and works great. Could be a bit faster but I picked it because it doesn't have loose caps to lose.

I have the 32GB Patriot Stellar because I wanted USB 3.0 and it's great, no complaints. I haven't formally tested it's speed on the PC end, but seems fast enough.

Meenova works for sure since I've used it several times... Can't say for other brands but I don't see the reason why it wouldn't work :/

I think this might be one I'd be interested in, given the small size. USB 2.0 doesn't bother me that much, as long as it does max out the write speed at 30MB/sec or so, and not the typical slow speed of kingston datatravellers at 3-5MB/sec

That is exactly what I've been waiting on!

Here's the transcend one, can't fault it so far. Works fine, speeds aren't bad either

I saw the Leef one and didn't really like how big it is. The Sony one is excellent but I need to find an adapter which is no issue for a computer. That way I can have a tiny otg for my phone and a flash drive for my computer.

The Kingston picture looks like that thing is from 1986. Lol.
