Sync, Charge and Read

The Micro USB Cable and Lightning Adaptor (Card Reader) is a sync & charge cable that features a micro and lightning connector along with a two-in-one with card reading functionality. Sounds complicated? Let me break it down for you … it’s a Micro USB Cable and a Lightening Adaptor and it features a slot that reads micro SD cards. So while it reads the card, it also transmits the information to the device it is hooked up to, for example your phone or desktop! Super cool innovation!

The Micro USB Cable & Lightning Adaptor with Card Reader is a 2014 Red Dot Award: Design Concept winner!
