What to Compare Before Buying

- Card type: Confirm whether you need SD cards, micro SD cards, or both.

Compatibility, Size and Fit
The reader is described for iOS, iPad OS, Mac OS, Android, Chrome OS, Windows and Linux devices, with examples including iPhone, iPad, MacBook and Samsung Galaxy models. The key check is the connector on your device and the card type you want to read.
If you plan to use NTFS-formatted cards with an iPhone or iPad, this is not the right format for reading on those devices.
Before You Decide
Confirm the connector type on your device, then check whether you need SD, micro SD or both. If your card uses NTFS and you want to read it on iPhone or iPad, make sure that format suits your setup. Also note that SD and micro SD cards cannot be used together in the reader.
