Samsung is my storage Go-to.
on December 11, 2018
Posted by: GOSamsungGoTexas
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use Samsung products whenever possible. In my home Samsung is trusted. When it come to storage options, no one can compete. Before using Samsung devices, I would regularly have to replace devices due to failure. The only reason I've replaced Samsung devices had been to upgrade. Never a failure... Not even once. Nice job Samsung!!!!

Great Concept, could have a sturdier build

I originally loved this product. The concept was great and the performance was spectacular. Though after only two months a tiny plastic ring in the tip broke off in one of my ports. Which was less than ideal, I was able to get it out and the flash drive continued to work normally. A couple more months passed and I was using the device when my friend bumped it while it was in my port. The device is no longer recognized by computer. Frustrating.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Very low speed
on March 17, 2019

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this flash drive recently with the hope that I will get a comfortable speed of recording and reading. Connected to the USB3.0 port, formatted in NTFS, in order to be able to download large files as a result did not get not only no write speed - 27.26 MB / s, but also a very low reading speed of 44.38 MB / s, instead of the promised 300 MB / s Just before I bought a 128GB USB flash drive, there's also a low speed, I thought I would buy Samsung and get the promised speed, but my expectations did not come true. In addition, there are too many parts: an adapter, a cap and a flash drive itself. And everything is not connected with each other. Could have given even a lanyard to connect the cap and the flash drive. One more question: does Samsung not know that 99% of users use phones in their cases, so USB Type-C just does not get to the port! Absolutely nothing the thing, money thrown to the wind!

USB 3.1 Flash Drive DUO Plus 256GB
on August 24, 2019
Posted by: Roger B
from Mooresville, NC
Expertise:Intermediate
I bought this to transfer files from my old laptop to my new one and also for transferring files from my phone with USB-C port to laptop and vice versa. This is the best flash drive and fastest one I've ever had. It took minutes to transfer thousands of pictures and music. I was surprised at how fast I was done. You get what you pay for, well worth the money!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Cool Flash Drive but better write speed is needed
on September 6, 2019
Posted by: PaulinaV

Expertise:Expert
I like this flash drive for the adapter USB-A what lets use this flash drive in all kind of equipments with USB type A and C.
Works very well in my iPad Pro 2018 and have more read speed than Samsung say and that's so cool, more than 300 MB/s (I have the 128GB version) but is poor in write speed with no more than 40 MB/s.
The parts keep in place and don't feel like plastic cheap.
Great Flash Drive Samsung, but if the write speed where greater 90 MB/s this will be a excellent equipment. Maybe for the next version.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I got this simply for the ability to use it with my tablet... transfering things directly to the drive on the go makes it totally worth the price.
I would recommend this to a friend!
