Great USB for designers
on September 12, 2023
Posted by: Fin Fin
I don't know why there are bad reviews on the USB, but I been using this USB more than 2-3 years and never had an issue. Most of parts I liked about this USB is the unbreakable material, speed of transfering files and opening USB, and it never got overheated. Depending on computer, but in my case it took me 10 second to open the USB on PC or sometimes it's less than 10 seconds.

thought i had a good brand in samsung, but after 2 months usage, the bar plus usb flash drive failed and would not be recognized by my computers. very disappointed.
the information on how to obtain warranty on the 5 year warranty policy of this item is obscure or hidden somewhere, but not on the product package and nowhere i could find on the website.

Bought just over a year ago and just died completely. Not recognised in any devices. Shame as it's sturdy and well designed. Would not recommend.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Amazing storage
on January 5, 2019
Posted by: Randyz

I was amazed at how small, but mighty it is. This is my new number 1 flash drive, I mainly store my movies, videos and pictures on mine. I put most all of my movies, pictures and other short videos on it and it's still not 1/2 full. The cherry on top is its water, shock, and even x-ray proof.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This drive is fantastic! It's petite enough to hang out on my keychain and not be a nuisance, but sure packs a punch!! The metal casing is hardcore enough to protect the drive but isn't bulky. I'm seriously digging this drive!!!
I would recommend this to a friend!
