Great price, retractable design works well. Performance is excellent.
Would have been nice to get a neck loop included…
A seriously useful bit ok kit; 16GB is great for moving movie downloads from PC to PS3.

A clever and functional design.Easy to use. Very satisfied with product. Only wish it had come with a chain or cord so one could put round one’s neck when travelling.

The slide release that extends and retracts the USB connector was a bit fiddly to release until I got used to it. It needs to be depressed with a thumbnail and then slid and locked into position. It is possible for it to sometimes not extend to the lock position and if it does, it is impossible to get it to insert into the USB socket. This has only happened once.
Otherwise it is very small and light and appears to work well.

Sadly this product seems to be one of those hit and miss affairs. No doubt many people have got one and it works and is great, unfortunately there is a fair chance you will get one that simply corrupts anything saved to it.
Formatted twice, once low level, and run every check on it which all report it is fine. You copy stuff over and wham, corrupted.
The unit itself if made from a fairly sturdy plastic and has a stiff retractable USB plug. There is a connectivity light to show its in use and feel like it would probably last for a couple of years if not knocked around too much.
Can’t argue with the price so if it’s easy for you to return then probably go for it, otherwise stay away.

I bought two of these. One broke after only a month of use – it will not power up. I’m sending it back under the 5 year warranty it comes with. But even one month is pretty poor for a flash drive! Conversely, the good news is that when it is actually working, it works just like any other flash drive! Just big!
