    Sandisk 256 GB Xpand drive Luxe

    I bought it to replace my iExpand 128 GB backup. It’s considerably faster than my old one and twice the storage.

    Great for additional storages

    Great to use in my classroom with students that need to save their assignments on when they do not own a drive. Keeps my personal files separate from my professional files. Great product!

    Sleek Design, Decent Performance

    I like the look of this Flash USB Drive, and it is quite handy. The USB connector slides in and out, so it stays protected, and it is a good size for on the go. It is USB 2.0, though, so it's not very fast for moving big files and folders around, but it works well enough for me. I use it for bringing files back and forth between school and home. Also, it comes with a protection software if you want to secure your files if you carry any sensitive data on it.

    Duo Link is great tool for easy transference

    well best buy somehow erased my first review and now i am forced to rewrite my review. this product is great. It really does simply plug into your phone and then you later plug it into a device with a USB. I think i paid less around $30 for this 128gb device

    EXCELLENT

    My wife had more than 6000 pictures/videos in her iPhone and could not use it properly. I tried several times to down load to the PC via apple lightning cable and no success. System would crash every time. A friend of mine told me about this lightning to USB flash drive and voila! problem solved. Super fast and easy to use with the app. If you really need to get some space in your iPhone this is the way to go.

    Excellent

    I had over 9,000 pictures on my I Phone and we were getting ready to take a vacation, so I wanted to get my camera on my phone empty before we left. We went to Best Buy and the manager actually helped me to decide on this one...best deal for your money and enough space to hold all my pictures.

    It didn’t take that long to down load them from my phone to this devise. It’s also a lot better taking this devise to the store to plug in to have my pictures printed off, then to plug in my phone and the store have other information off my phone while printing my pictures! This is a lot safer then using your phone to print pictures.

    Thank you Best Buy for all your help!

    Heaven sent !!!

    These is the coolest back-up device I've ever seen! I've been having trouble backing up my photos and videos from my iPhone X to my PC via lighting cable for some reason the copying gets always interrupted with message connection lost. I found these while at a local Best Buy Store and thought to give it a shot. I downloaded the required app, plugged this device with my iPhone X and followed the written instructions how to proceed with the back-up. I was amazed how the back-up was done without any issues. Although it took time to back-up all the photos and videos, it is well worth the wait knowing I backed up all my files. After the back-up was copied on this USB drive, I was able to easily plug this with my computer and copy directly the files in it. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who owns an iPhone X and up.

    Would buy again

    Love this lil gadget! It connects with my phone so I can store pictures and video on the USB instead of taking up space in my phone.

    I took a star away for a couple of reasons/improvements. Every time it connects it goes through the download of the same photos AGAIN. I can’t figure out how to only pic up new pictures. I wish they made the app much more user friendly. It’s confusing

    Great Storage Device for MP4 files

    When I purchase the PNY Duo Link 128 storage device. I though it was the greatest thing invented for apple ios. I convince a few family member to purchase some for themselves. Until a month or two later after use, two of my family members had the lightning digital adapter fall off or stuck inside iPads.

    I also ran into a software problem with mine. I send it back to PNY,com and they replaced it with a new one no questions asked.

    Another negative feedback for the PNY Duo Link...ios only support MP4 files. It will not support AVI or MKV

    Positive Feedback: You can download large video files without using your storage space on your device.

    I highly command not to use it for important critical files that you might end up losing them.

    I almost forgot to mentioned. The price fluctuates on Bestbuy website. One day it will be regular price, two days later it will be 50-75% off. I paid $39.99 for 128GB.

    I purchased this device with the thought it was going to be a complicated set up to save my videos and pictures from my broken ipad. It wasn’t!! As soon as I plugged it in it walked me through the app process and how to transfer everything on the drive with no issue and in little time!!

    Good Product.

    A very good product with sample photos and videos on each stick which reduces the amount of memory space on the unit. You go from 128GB to 119 GB of available space. Deleting some pics, videos and music will free up some space.

    Perfect little memory stick

  • Review by Hawgblades, 10 out of 10
    It works 100%!

    Love it. I read other reviews - some said it did not work. I can understand because it drains the battery from a 100% charge down to 80% in 10 seconds but held at that until building up the criteria to download 20,232 photIs and videos. It worked, but the phone battery was completely drained. I plugged the flash drive into my laptop and all images were there! Way to go Sandisk! When you plug the drive in, select automatic download of photos and it will automatically download by year and months. Perfect!

    Great go-between!

    To start with, I have not been disappointed with Sandisk products. Prior to buying the iXpand drive I was, and still use, the Sandisk Connect wireless flash drive 64gb.

    The iXpand is equipped with your standard USB connection on one side, and a lighning wire connection on the other. The 128gb is curved at the end, so it essentially "clips" to your iPhone or iPad when you plug it in.

    It has its own app, but you can use the Files app in iOS just as easily.

    My only complaint would be that large movie files cannot play. The workaround for that is to get the Apple USB3 camera adapter. This allows you to plug a thumb drive in and a lightning wire cable, so you are providing the extra power the iPad or iPhone needs to play large files.

    Lighter than a stick of gum grear price too

    You really cant beat the price. I walked into bestbuy needing a thumbdrive to act as a boot drive for a windows installation and was very pleased with the performance. But while many thumb drives seem unnecessarily bulky this thing has such a small footprint you might mistake it for a toy or 3d printed item. You could send it snalemail for next to nothing if you needed to share data with someone too. Its not fancy but doesn't need to be. Grear gift for someone who works in multimedia or a college student who needs to share sensitive collaborative material in person.

    It was so easy to set up and use my new Flash Drive. I not only downloaded items from my iPhone but I was able to dump these items onto my laptop and external hard drive and thus I can clear space on my iPhone.

    Corrupts most of my photos...

    Purchased 12/10/19. Wanted to love this, but I lose most of my memories/photos because this flash drive corrupts most of the file formats for the pictures I take. I'm not sure if my product is defective or what's happening with it. No pros, but so many cons: flash drive corrupts files, files won't save to camera most of the time (have to take a screenshot), can't always pull from the drive to upload pics to FB/IG/etc., freezes a lot while taking pictures or not, video features never works, cannot use iPhone camera app, camera app forced to use with this flash drive is very poor and has NO editing or filtering features (almost couldn't even upload photos for this post that I saved to my camera roll from the drive to show the quality), photos won't always save to camera roll (even tried screenshots and somehow those images disappeared from my camera roll), can only use the drive to backup photos and music, doesn't always backup what you select, etc. I wish I could get my money back. This was $50+ wasted. Really disappointed.
