What is WG-C20? This is the most frequently asked question in the open box art appreciation. In the last article, we only talked about the appearance design and interface of WG-C20. Today, we will talk about the function and use of this unlimited sharing partner launched by Sony.
WG-C20 is not cumbersome in appearance design. It can be said that WG-C20 is designed and developed for Xpeia Z series mobile phones. It can be said that both in appearance design and product concept, it is an extension of functions and convenient use.
WG-C20 is a product with more specific needs. As an unlimited sharing partner, it has no built-in storage space and needs to expand reading through its own storage card slot and USB. In simple terms, it is a wireless card reader. Of course, because it has a 3000mAh battery for operation, it can also be used as a mobile power supply for emergency use.
In interface resolution, WG-C20 has an SD card slot and a USB 2.0 interface. Through these two interfaces, WG-C20 basically covers most of the current mainstream storage devices. The mobile hard disk may be a little picky about the power supply, and cannot be completely power free. The actual test SD card slot can support 64G.
It may be that WG-C20 is slightly error prone in use. It's easy to be confused by several indicator lights when you start using it. The ACCESS light has two colors. If you don't pay attention, you may have to turn over the manual. And when the software is upgraded twice, the longer upgrade time is also easy to make mistakes.
Sony has specially designed a file manager named File Manager for WG series and UA series, covering Android and iOS platforms. WG-C20 supports NFC fast pairing. After pairing, you can complete wifi connection and open File Manager.
File Manger can be used as a normal file manager even if WG-C20 is not used. The Android Design design is adopted on the interface. The simple and clear functions and layout are basically understood at a glance. Of course, the top part includes three columns: memory card, USB interface and local. If the memory card is not inserted, there is no corresponding prompt. Therefore, it may lead to misoperation, which is thought to be a reading error.
WG-C20 is rich in function settings. Such as wireless network settings, current device status display, and file management control. However, it is a pity that the connected devices are not viewed, so that further management and control cannot be carried out.
As a wireless data sharing partner, the most fundamental function is to share the data of the corresponding storage device. As shown in the figure above, images are read and shared, and with the help of wifi transmission, the speed is quite powerful. The actual test of photos about 5M in size is almost instantaneous.
Of course, I have to complain that under a large number of images, the WG-C20 is quite slow in creating thumbnail previews, which makes it difficult to find the images you want when using them.
As far as functions are concerned, WG-C20 is a very small subdivision requirement, which many people feel is useless. But in fact, it is very convenient to use in many scenarios. For example, if you transfer a document and an image during a meeting, you can only transfer it in turn. The time and efficiency consumed are quite low, but WG-C20 is much faster.
In addition, when you are out without a notebook, you can quickly read and transfer the photos taken through the SD card and share them with multiple people. This scene is what I often encounter. Of course, in addition to supporting its own wifi function, the 3000mAh battery can basically ignore the mobile power function, which is a little emergency.
To sum up, WG-C20 is a product that has been well optimized for mobile devices at present. Of course, the functions with more specific needs may be smaller in the audience, but people with such needs will really be moved.
