Each OTG flash drive is equipped with two connectors. The first is the classic USB port - 2.0, 3.0, 3.1, which enables the connection to a computer or laptop. The second, output drive, for the interconnection with other devices (especially mobile phones and tablets) is primarily a micro USB or Lightning connector.
How to choose the right one?
When choosing an OTG flash drive, it is important to focus on several fundamental aspects. First of all, its compatibility. This is related to the above-mentioned connectors. Before the purchase, it is important to check whether the device for which you are buying the OTG flash drive has a port for the connector. If you are looking for external storage for your smartphone or tablet, then in most cases it is:
- micro USB - designed for devices running Android and Windows
- Lightning - designed for Apple devices
Next, and equally important, is the size of the storage space. It only depends on you and your specific needs. But ultimately, the greater the capacity, the higher the price.
