Pendrive iFlash Pro 64GB Lightning & USB Flash Drive -- REVIEW
1K views
May 30, 2025
Oh sure, you can pick up USB flash drives at the local supermarket, but if you want one that's going to be tons more useful, then the Pendrive iFlash Pro is worth a closer look. It features a USB 3.0 connector on one and a lightning connector on the other. Yup, a two-headed beast! This means you can easily plug it into your computer and download movies, TV shows, photos, music, documents, whatever you want onto the iFlash Pro, then plug it directly into an iPhone or iPad. Install the free iFlash Pro app on your iOS device and it makes it a breeze to watch those movies (even if they're in AVI, MKV or MP4 format), listen to your music, etc. Tech expert Dave Taylor of https://www.AskDaveTaylor.com/ checks out the Pendrive iFlash Pro 64GB flash drive and is impressed. Watch to learn why. Learn more: http://amzn.to/2kR06gO

out Dave Taylor here and this time I'm
0:16
looking at flash drives but I'm not just
0:18
looking at a little USB device that
0:20
you're going to plug into your computer
0:21
and use to share files I'm looking at
0:24
something with a much more specific
0:25
purpose because when I take the ends off
0:28
you'll see that one end has a lightning
0:30
connector and the other end is a USB 3.0
0:34
connector this is the pen drive if flash
0:38
Pro and it's a really sweet little
0:41
device now there's a number of companies
0:43
making these sort of things with a USB
0:45
on one end and a lightning or maybe a
0:47
micro USB on the other and you know it's
0:50
a category that's really useful because
0:52
you can actually ignore the lightning
0:53
side and just use it as a USB drive but
0:56
I use it so I can not only transfer
0:59
files but more importantly that I can
1:01
carry more files than my iOS device can
1:04
handle now the key for it to work is you
1:07
need to download something called pen
1:09
drive if flash Pro out of the iTunes
1:12
Store and I've learned this the hard way
1:15
install it on your device first and it
1:17
just seems to work a little better and
1:19
so the idea is that of course I put this
1:23
into my computer and I transfer whatever
1:26
files I want and I can like put music on
1:29
there I can put photos on there whatever
1:31
it is my little heart's desire has I put
1:34
on this and this particular unit is 64
1:37
gig and then when I'm ready then I bring
1:40
out my handy lightning connector device
1:43
like this little iPad
1:45
mini and I plug in the lightning
1:47
connector and if the software is
1:49
installed and it's all happy then it
1:52
actually launches that I flash Pro app
1:55
and then that gives me the ability to
1:58
actually access and interact with the
2:00
data on here now what might be a little
2:03
funky that you might not be used to is
2:05
that if I have music on here for example
2:07
I don't get to it through iTunes I get
2:09
to it through the pen drive if flash Pro
2:12
app so that can be something that takes
2:15
a little getting used to but you know
2:17
really where I'm using this is for
2:19
movies and I can drop a bunch of movies
2:21
and TV episodes onto here and then I can
2:24
just take it with me or give it to a
2:26
friend in this case I have a friend who
2:28
has some health issues and I'm is trying
2:30
to give him some distractions so put
2:32
some of his favorite movies on here and
2:34
now he can put this on his iPad and
2:38
watch this stuff watch whatever movies
2:40
he wants and never have to worry about
2:42
how much space is on his iPad and what
2:44
does he have to delete to make space so
2:46
pretty slick stuff and I will say as you
2:48
can see in this screenshot that the if
2:51
flash Pro app is pretty well-designed
2:54
though in this screenshot you can see
2:57
that they might need a tiny bit of he
3:00
with their grammar it's a Chinese
3:02
company I'm sure my Chinese would be way
3:04
more horrible than their English is so
3:07
um it's just one of these things that
3:08
you sort of get used to and the good
3:10
news is the functionality is all there
3:12
so it's not an issue of functionality
3:14
it's really just an issue of Cosmetics
3:16
so you can live with that let's see what
3:18
I was can to tell you it's pretty fast
3:20
so the lightning connector end this guy
3:23
the lightning connector connector can go
3:26
up to theoretically 26 megabits a second
3:29
and then the USB connector since it's
3:31
USB 3 which is the faster version of USB
3:35
can go up to 80 megabits a second what
3:37
it means is that when I'm copying a lot
3:39
of data onto here it's not super duper
3:42
fast but it's not horribly slow either
3:44
if you've ever used a USB 2.0 drive it
3:47
just drags on and on and on and those
3:49
copies suck it's just not good you just
3:51
sit there and say there's got to be a
3:53
better way but at least you're not using
3:55
floppies so there is that so this works
3:58
pretty well it's you know C certainly
4:00
fast enough for you to start a copy and
4:02
then just do something else and in a few
4:04
minutes it's done so that's cool this is
4:06
in Gray and right so the only other
4:08
thing I want to talk about is I want to
4:10
talk about price cuz price is an
4:12
interesting thing because they have
4:13
these in 32 64 and 128 GB so this one's
4:18
the 64 so it is theoretically the middle
4:21
of the road and let's see it they come
4:24
in Gray or gold or rose gold so they're
4:28
clearly paying attention to I iPhone
4:30
case colors um which is nice the rose
4:33
gold looks really nice I just got gray
4:35
cuz hey it's pretty neutral that works
4:37
and 32 gig amazon.com it's $67.98 but
4:42
wait it's actually only
4:44
$29.99 because the company that makes
4:46
these add-on Tech they actually have
4:49
everything lowered 30 to 50% versus
4:51
their sticker prices now speaking of
4:54
sticker prices wait that doesn't
4:56
actually make sense as a transition but
4:58
seriously can I invite you to go ahead
5:01
and click on that subscribe button and
5:02
subscribe to my channel that would be
5:04
super helpful thank you I appreciate
5:07
that now back to this so this is the 64
5:11
gig so this is
5:12
$78.99 no it's not this is actually
5:16
$45.99 and then the 128 gig uh you know
5:20
the official actual price is at
5:23
$119.99 no cross that out it's actually
5:27
$71.99 now these numbers I know just
5:30
arbitrary numbers so let's talk about it
5:32
in cost per gig okay so the 32 gig unit
5:37
cost you 93 cents a gigabyte the 64 gig
5:41
unit this guy cost 71 cents a gigabyte
5:45
and in a pricing that I would never have
5:47
imagined when I started using computers
5:50
and megabytes were a big deal I remember
5:52
buying a 20 megabyte hard drive and
5:54
thinking that was a lot of space so the
5:57
128 GB Drive ends up costing you 56
6:01
cents a gigabyte it's pretty nice and it
6:04
fits in your pocket honestly isn't the
6:06
future amazing cuz we're here right now
6:08
this is the future so cool so this is
6:13
the add-on Tech pen drive I flash Pro
6:17
and I quite like it actually it's very
6:19
useful for its functionality of working
6:21
with a sort of external storage for iOS
6:24
devices and just as a handy flash drive
6:27
you can learn more about it if you read
6:29
Chinese at add
6:31
on.com or you can just go to amazon.com
6:34
and go ahead and look for these guys so
6:36
