Anker Launches MagGo Adapter: Boost iPhone Storage and 4K Recording for $34.99
  • Anker has unveiled the MagGo USB-C Adapter, a compact, puck-shaped SD and microSD card reader designed for use with laptops, tablets, and smartphones.

  • This new adapter enhances the capabilities of the iPhone 16 and earlier models by adding microSD card reading functionality.

  • It serves as a cost-effective alternative to upgrading internal storage on iPhones, where a 1TB model can be significantly more expensive than a 128GB version.

  • The MagGo Adapter is MagSafe compatible, allowing it to attach securely to the back of an iPhone, which is particularly useful during video recording.

  • When used with the iPhone 15 or 16, the adapter supports ProRes 4K recording at 60fps, provided the memory card meets specific speed and capacity requirements.

  • Additionally, it features a USB-C port that can deliver up to 42.5W of power, compensating for the charging ports it blocks on the iPhone.

  • To protect the card slots from dust and dirt, the adapter comes with a snap-on cover.

  • This device is particularly beneficial for users needing extra storage while traveling or engaging in outdoor activities.

  • The MagGo USB-C Adapter is priced at $34.99 and is available on Amazon, with promotional discounts when purchased alongside other Anker accessories.

  • Its design includes a removable top for easy insertion of microSD or SD cards, emphasizing convenience for capturing and editing video.

  • While users with slower SD or microSD cards can still record externally, they may experience limitations in frame rates and resolution.

  • The adapter supports high-speed data transfer rates of up to 312MB/s, contingent on using USH-II rated memory cards, and allows for simultaneous syncing and charging.
