The SanDisk iXpand Flash Drive is a fast, handy way to increase storage on your iPhone or iPad, but we encountered some reliability issues in testing.

Fast read speeds; Built-in file manager; Integrated media playback and auto-backup

Flimsy connector cable; App crashed repeatedly when transferring large files in testing

In just a few months after releasing the first generation iXpand, SanDisk were able to take head of reviewer and customer feedback from around the world, and create something that is more in tune with something available in 2016.

SanDisk's iXpand Flash drive delivers what it promises to. Priced close to Rs.3990 for a 16GB variant, you will definitely find cheaper options available in the market if you can compromise on the looks and the multi-feature application.

Slim and pocketable design; Directly record and play content from the drive; Easy transfer with automatic backup

Large files cannot be transfered due to file format restriction

flash drive was my need , because I have iphone 7..so its required drive...sand disk is the brand with less price..you have good offers..

This is a fantastic little gem! I bought this for myself to have a small, convenient backup for my phone's photos and videos and I'm very happy with it. In fact, I'm so happy with it I've ordered my husband one for his phone as well! You just plug it in to your phone and away you go.

This is a very reliable and useful little device. Pairs seamlessly with my iPhone 6s Plus internal drive. No issues at all. Well, maybe with price which is too steep imo. There are plenty of much cheaper ones out there and probably every bit as reliable I would think.

When was the last time that you paid more than R1 000 for a 32 GB flash drive? Personally, I've never had to cough up that much, which is why the new SanDisk iXpand Flash Drive 's R1 500 price tag is so surprising.

Well constructed; Quick and easy to use app

Overpriced; Lighting connection not flexible enough

Is your iPhone or iPad filled with lots of data? There are solutions, either you use Apple's storage or use an external drive that lets your backup your device data easily. Sandisk came up with the second solution and introduced iXpand flash drive.

Easy to operate; nice app

Limited file transfer; awkward to handle an iPhone or iPad when plugged in

The SanDisk iXpand is a flash drive that allows OTG transfers between your computer and your iOS devices. It isn't just your ordinary USB OTG drive and has a few tricks up it's sleeve. Let's dive into our review to learn more about the device and how it performs.

T his is a little more than a simple USB 3.0/Lightening data transfer and storage device. Its first trick is packing a small battery into the unit, so extended use via Lightening won't need the iPhone or iPad's battery.
