Like many Apple peripherals, Gmobi iStick Pro (hereinafter referred to as iStick) uses the outer packaging of a crystal box. The cartons in the packaging box are all in English. It seems that this is not the official version for domestic users. The words "Made for ios" on the front and back indicate that this iStick is a product that has obtained Apple MFI certification, and the price can be settled.
Remove the crystal box package. There is a paper box type package inside. There are no other accessories or instructions in the paper box. It's really a simple manual. There are plastic clips on the carton to fix the iStick. It is not easy to be damaged during transportation.
Next is the appearance of iStick, which adopts the appearance design of all aluminum alloy. There is a metal dial wheel on the front (a prompt light will be displayed after inserting the mobile phone or computer), and the laser engraved logo of Gmobi and iStickPro. The back also has a 32GB laser engraved logo, the serial number of the iStick, and various logos for authentication and attention.
The side of the wheel near the "Gmobi" logo is the lightning interface, and the side near the "iStickPro" logo is the USB2.0 and Microusb interfaces. It is worth mentioning that the Microusb interface cannot be opened directly by pulling the dial wheel, and it needs to be opened with fingers.
As shown in the figure, you also need to dial in manually to close the microbus, but you cannot press it directly. However, as an IOS device user, Microusb is not needed most of the time. So don't worry. This also avoids some users' mentality of "I can do without it, but you can't do without it".
Since we have all got the microbusb out, we'd better plug it into the device and try it. The owner has only one HTC ONE M7. Inserting iStick, it shows charging! External The memory is also unavailable. It should be a problem with the mobile phone. After all, water has entered. Let's get rid of this problem.
You can see the glue residue when you put the Lightning USB in. ([This is not a metal burr])
Just inserting iStick on iPhone 6 will prompt you to automatically install iStick pro software. No external storage is displayed after installation! At that time, I was crazy. When I took a closer look, I found that the iPhone was wearing a condom, which resulted in poor contact between Lightning and iPhone. Does this mean that I have to drag the case every time I use iStick? This place really should be modified. My iPhone protective case is not completely wrapped, but it still can not fit. Please pay attention to the designer!!!
After removing the protective shell, the available space of the external storage display is 29.8GB, which is 2.2GB different from the storage marked 32GB. Secondly, iStick does not distinguish between the positive and negative use, which highlights the advantages of lightning.
The operation is also relatively simple and easy to understand. You can directly select backup or restore in the address book ("reply" in the app), directly back up photos to iStick or iPhone, and directly use the iPhone as memory in the app (similar to iflie.) At the same time, iStick can also export videos from iPhone, which is almost independent of iTunes.
When iStick is opened on the computer, it shows that the available memory is 31.9GB. The difference between the available memory on the computer and that on the iPhone is almost incomprehensible. According to the speed measurement software, the writing speed on iStick is about 13.7MB/S, and the reading speed is about 14.7MB/S. The typical USB2.0 speed is really not expected in modern times.
The landlord searched the price of iStick on JD and found that the price of 32GB iStick was ¥ 999. In the United States, the price of iStick 64GB is $199. It is inferred that the price of iStick 32GB is at least $100. The price is really prohibitive for the owner.
Summary: - IStick is simple and easy to use, but there are still some shortcomings waiting for subsequent products to adjust.
- The price is too high for many users.
- USB2.0 has fallen behind and the storage speed is slow.
