USB C to Micro SD - Review

Are you struggling to find a portable and durable card reader that can transfer data from SD cards, Micro SD cards, and USB storage devices? Look no further than the Actpe USB C to Micro SD TF Memory Card Reader with USB 3.0 Port, 3 in 1 USB C to USB Camera Memory Card Reader Adapter for Pad Pro MacBook Pro Surface & More UBC C Devices.

As an experienced product reviewer, I was excited to test out the Actpe card reader and see if it lived up to its promises. Unfortunately, after using it extensively, I have to say that I was disappointed and would not recommend this product.

One of the standout features advertised by Actpe is the 5Gbps fast transfer speed, which is meant to allow users to transfer photos and videos in just seconds. However, in my experience, the transfer speed was inconsistent and often much slower than advertised. This made transferring large files a frustrating and time-consuming process.

Another selling point of the Actpe card reader is its dual card slots, which are compatible with a wide range of SD and Micro SD cards with a capacity of up to 128 GB. In theory, this is a helpful feature for anyone who needs to transfer data from different types of memory cards. However, I found the card slots to be flimsy and difficult to insert and remove cards from. This made me concerned about potential damage to my memory cards from the repeated use of the reader.

In addition to the card slots, the Actpe card reader also features a standard USB port that can connect to a variety of devices, including cameras, USB flash drives, hard drives, and printers. Unfortunately, I had issues with this port as well. When trying to transfer data from a USB flash drive, the Actpe card reader frequently disconnected from my computer, interrupting the transfer process and requiring me to start over.

The Actpe card reader is marketed as being compatible with a wide range of USB-C devices, including laptops, smartphones, and tablets. While I was able to connect the device to my MacBook Pro without issue, I struggled to get it to work with my Android smartphone. After several attempts, I was finally able to get the card reader to recognize my phone, but it required a lot of troubleshooting and frustration.

Despite being marketed as durable and portable, the Actpe card reader's build quality left something to be desired. While the shell is made of "upgraded fireproof material" and provides several safety features, it felt cheap and flimsy in my hands. Additionally, while the card reader is compact and lightweight, it doesn't feel like it would hold up well to frequent use or travel.

In conclusion, while the Actpe USB C to Micro SD TF Memory Card Reader with USB 3.0 Port, 3 in 1 USB C to USB Camera Memory Card Reader Adapter for Pad Pro MacBook Pro Surface & More UBC C Devices has some useful features, the overall performance and build quality of this product are lacking. At a price point of around $10, it may be tempting for those on a budget, but I would recommend investing in a higher-quality card reader that is more reliable and user-friendly.

As a final note, it's worth mentioning that my experience with the Actpe card reader may not be representative of all users. However, based on my experience and the 1-star rating on the product page, I would advise potential buyers to be cautious when considering this product.
