Square Reader Card Fraud 2019

I was unhappy with the USB-C SD card reader I have for my 2019 MacBook Pro and wanted something more reliable. I saw another photographer review this and thought 'what the heck'. It was on sale at a decent price. I really only needed the card reader but got so much more. I was surprised how small it is. And it gives me both of my USB-C ports back in addition to the 2 card reader slots and the 2 USB slots. It has a little bit of 'wiggle' and I could wish it felt more secure in the laptop's side but it's not been an issue. I am not rough on gear and won't stress it's connection. I like the small light on one end that shows it's connected and my cards pop up immediately on my desktop. The USB-C plugs work perfect. I haven't had it long but so far at home and on the first trip out of town it was just right.

The OTG card reader is a plus!

Works well, only wish it would come with the appropriate card reader.

A very fast card reader!

This is the best choice for a card reader.

Great card reader.

I purchased this SanDisk Professional PRO-READER Multi Card Reader after my laptop SD card reader failed. Ordered it from B&H overnight delivery and it arrived at 10am next day - so kudos to B&H for that. Here's my first thoughts on this SanDisk card reader: -It's fast! First time using it was able download 202 21MP photos from Import to ready to edit in the Develop module in Lightroom in 40 seconds - about 1/4 of the time required compared to my laptop's now defunct card reader. Your milage will vary. -It's USB-C 3.2 version 2 as advertised. (My Windows 11 ProArt Studio laptop does have a USB-C 4 Thunderbolt input. However Thunderbolt card readers cost $200-$300 or more, which was more than I was willing to pay, so this SanDisk reader was a happy compromise. Nevertheless, plugged it into the Thunderbolt port to attain the download speed I mentioned above). -Build quality. The case is made of rugged ribbed aluminum that I think will stand up exceptionally well in a busy office environment. It also looks 'professional' as it not constructed of cheap looking plastic. On the bottom of the case there are four small rubber feet that should stop it from sliding around on a desk like plastic card readers are wont to do. Finally, and this is a big plus for this Sandisk card reader compared to another plasticky 'Top Seller' sold for the same price, the several times I have use it so far it never became too hot to touch or to remove the SD card from it. It's one cool dude, in fact. - Size wise, it's roughly the size of a business card though maybe an inch longer. And if you require more than one I believe SanDisk offers a raid style enclosure to accommodate up to four. My conclusion: This SanDisk Professional PRO-READER Multi Card Reader is very fast, well built, looks professional and stays cool to the touch. So, would I recommend it to a friend. Absolutely!

If you are shooting 4K or above, this card reader is a must.

A fantastic card reader

I mean it's a card reader... and it works. What else do you need to know.
