Lexar Introduces MicroSD Reader With Lightning Connector
18 April 2016
Lexar has announced a compact microSD reader with a Lightning connector and a free iOS file management app to copy data between microSD cards and iPhones and iPads.
"Users who are looking to capture more content in real time while on the move can find it challenging to manage that content, especially in an iOS device," said Steffi Ho, Lexar product marketing manager. "Shooters can now take advantage of the large screens and connectivity of their iOS devices by editing and uploading content captured on their action sports and aerial cameras wirelessly. Users no longer need to wait until they're back in front of their main computer at home or in the office to upload content captured on-the-go."
The new reader has a small, portable design and its Lightning connector fits with most iOS cases, the company said.
File formats supported for playback by the free app include:
- Music: MP3/CAF/ACC/AIF/WAV/AIFF/M4A
- Video: AVI/FLV/MP4/MOV/M4V/MKV/MPG/RM/RMVB/WMV
The new microSD Reader is available now for $41.99 and includes a one-year limited warranty.
