16GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive in Clip Carabiner Function Mini ** waterproof & fast ** Extreme Tough Made of Metal ** Ideal for Key-Chain ** in Silver by meZmory ®

A very understated look - steel, slim, no colour or adornments, this is an very fast USB.Quick to upload, open and transfer files, I'm keeping it on a keyring to use for work, it doesn't add any weight to my keys and being waterproof/shockproof (though I haven't tested these out personally), I feel I can trust it to have a minor bit of bashing about in my bag.I have knocked a star off for two reasons though - the price does seem on the high side for the 16GB size. I know it has additional features, but you can find USBs of this capacity for around half this price. And as well as this, it's a tight fit getting it connected - on my Apple Mac, I fit this to the port on the underside of the keyboard, and it is both difficult to insert and hard to remove (I had to pull the handle which then opened and snagged my finger). Fiddly.I do like the shiny look of it, the lightness and decent capacity, and the ease with which I can attach it to keys and carry it about.With thanks to the manufacturer for the sample product, sent for review purposes.

This is a beautiful and really tiny flash drive. I'm not sure I'd want to put it on my keyring as it has no protection for dust getting, ie. no cap or other closing mechanism. But that seems to be true for many of this type of drive. It took a long time to arrive but I didn''t need it quickly so it did not matter, but don't buy this drrive if you need one in a hurry. Overall it is a good purchase.

I like the stylish look of this USB memory stick. The silver metallic build looks good next to my Macbook Air, and the clip means that I can keep it securely without fear of losing it. As other reviewers have noted though, it is a very tight and awkward fit. I've noticed this more in some USB ports than others, for example, on my Macbook, it's ok, whereas on Windows machines I've tried, it is almost impossible to insert it into the USB port. This is a problem because the whole point of a USB drive like this is to enable you to transfer data between machines and the awkwardness of the USB fitting is going to make this problematic. For this reason alone, I would be cautious about recommending what is otherwise a quality product that has a fast data transfer speed (being USB 3 you'd expect it to be fast).I was sent a free sample of this product by the manufacturer in return for an honest review.

I have to give this top ratings as I use Memory sticks quite a lot.This one is the first metal one I have come across making robust and virtually unable to be damaged unlike some of the plastic coated ones.16GB is ample for what I want to use this one for. It has a hook type thing which means you can clasp this to your bag, belt or suchlike.I didn't have any problems with fitting it into any of my USB portholes. It was snug, but that's how I prefer them to be.The transfer time was fast. Compared to some others I found this ideal and was very pleased.I was asked if I would like to test this item and honestly unbiased leave a review.

I received this free to review.Whilst this works very well and is fast, I have another one from the same manufacturer which is USB 2.0 and this USB 3.0 one is noticeably faster. It is solidly made with a useful clip that could be used on a key ring.SO why only 2 stars, well it does not fit many of the USB sockets I have on various PCs. I initially tried it on my desktop PC and would have given it 5* but when I tried to use it to transfer files to a Toshiba laptop this drive would not fit, I tried it with a couple of other devices and it also did not fit any of the USB sockets.It is claimed to be waterproof and while this is possibly true water can ingress through where the spring is and although it may not reach the electronics it would certainly "store" water which could transfer to something more sensitive, also there is no protection at the plug end and water would come into contact with the contacts which could be transferred to a PC USB socket.It is a shame as it is a nice looking item

This physically small but massively large capacity memory stick is totally functional – and at the same time it is the neatest and most attractive memory stick I have come across. It is brushed finish stainless steel with square edges and a sort of karabiner clip at the end opposite its 3.0 USB connection. I was delighted to receive it for review purposes and my first thought was how well its smooth flat face would take a company logo to use the device as a marketing offering.However as with any electronic equipment it is functionality that matters. Product information for the meZmory stick states a writing speed of up to 20MB per second, and a reading speed of up to 80MB per second – and certainly I can confirm it seems to be instant in use. It is also claimed as waterproof and shock proof – I haven’t tried waterproof but from a shockproof point of view it appears robustly made and likely to be durable. The stick was a tight fit to my laptop but was immediately recognised, and it showed 15GB available capacity. This meZmory stick fully deserves a 5-star rating.
