Samsung has been round for a while now. In reality they have been one the primary to unfold their wings within the shopper flash business. Similar to every other producer, there have been a couple of velocity bumps alongside the best way however Samsung has established themselves as a top quality storage firm for extra years than one may take into account. Their exterior storage assortment has grown and been up to date usually and Samsung has historically sat within the weeds with manufacture at all times seeming to match shopper want at the moment.

In spite of everything, it’s Samsung and I can assure there’s something Samsung in nearly each customers digital assortment, even when they don’t realize it. In reality, I may even perceive why Samsung held again on this 20Gbps launch as a result of 20Gbps continues to be quite area of interest and never the norm.

Equally, plugging into an everyday USB 3 port will solely deliver speeds as much as 540MB/s. So sure… the T9 is quite area of interest and never the norm for the standard shopper. However it’s ahead pondering should you plan on transferring up sooner or later…and undoubtedly a high consideration if you’re a media nut with the correct gear.

The Samsung T9 could be very rugged with an aluminum body surrounded by a rubberized coating. This has an excellent really feel however isn’t the perfect answer for these with a contact of mysophobia as it’s a mud magnet. I can’t let you know what number of instances footage have been retaken as a result of it’s actually inconceivable to maintain this mud free.
It measures roughly 3.5″x2.4″x0.5″ and weighs in at 4.3 ounces.
