Silicon Power Also Releases Mobile C50 Triple-Interface Flash Drive

[btarunr]

Silicon Power, a leading provider of memory storage solutions, adds another brilliant coup of storage convenience to its OTG flash drive portfolio - the new Mobile C50. As all good things come in threes, SP's new OTG Mobile C50 has three connectors -USB Type-A, Micro-B, and Type-C. Never lost for the right connection, it's easier than ever to share data between new-generation USB Type-C devices, any "traditional" USB PC or laptop, and Micro-B smartphones or tablets. The compact drive is also a reliable companion for extra storage needs plug-n-play and tops up USB Type-C or Micro-B mobile devices with up to 128GB free space.



Clever Design for Protection and Easy Handling
The USB Type-C connector is protected by a sturdy, yet highly elastic rubber cap ready to be snapped open over 10,000 times. And as it is firmly attached to the drive, there's no need to worry about leaving it behind somewhere. On the other end, the USB Micro-B is protected covered by the USB connector when not in use. The drive's ergonomic grip makes plugging and removal effortless and smooth, while a hole for key rings ensures easy transport. Pretty nifty this C50.

Not sure about how long those exposed contacts will last when using the micro USB port.

Products like these are the living proof that new USB port standard need to be unified in the mainstream ASAP

only reason to make it so small as mini USB or USB-C is mobile and tablet market.
lots of people, like me, consider sturdiness.
I say this because I have an expensive external drive with USB-C and after 6 months I am already worried about lifetime of the port and plug.
Apart from intermitent disconexion that I already notice with this drive and with my USB-C mobile phone.

In a professional scenario you can't work with stuff that may break or disconnect.

So I foresee 2 standards: small and big.
