Sony today introduced the all new USB Type-C™[1] Flash Drive. Equipped with both USB Type-C™ and USB Type-A connectors, it bridges the connection between different devices to make data sharing that much easier.

This new device is a USB 3.1 Gen 1 (SuperSpeed USB) standard and encompasses a read speed of up to 130MB/s for fast data transfer. Additionally, with a slim and compact body, as well as a metal exterior, it is easy to bring around and ready to use whenever needed.

Carefully developed with a reversible plug orientation, the USB Type-C™ device enables users to transfer files between various notebooks such as the Apple® MacBook® 12-inch model[2] and selected PCs, smartphones and tablets, which come with a USB Type-C™ port, and PCs or laptops with a conventional USB Type-A port.

With these amazing features packed into one slim compact body well-protected with a silicon cover and strap hole, data transfer and storage would be the least of your concerns in future.

The new USB Type-C™ & Type-A Dual Connection Flash Drive, available in three capacities – 16GB, 32GB and 64GB, is available in selected Middle East countries now.

started as a small company with capital of just 190,000 yen and approximately 20 employees.
