Kingston MobileLite Wireless G2 Wireless Card Reader Review

Mobility is the norm of life. It is useless to refute the assertion that more and more people are trying to stay in touch constantly, otherwise how to explain the steady growth in sales of smartphones, the increase in the number of social networks (in one form or another), the increase in the number of programs for communication. Like, sheyr, repost - it's all so familiar, everyone is so accustomed to sharing something on the Internet, but what can I say, you yourself now probably think - to put a plus for an article or a minus.




Traditionally this raises several problems:
')

1. Need to throw photos
2. Need to charge the phone
3. It is necessary to organize the Internet

Of course there are others, but since the device, about which the post will be, decides exactly these - let's make them basic. Kingston Mobile Lite Wireless G2 is not the first attempt to cover the immense, it was already the first version of such a device .

I will begin the life story of Kingston Mobile Lite Wireless G2 ( MLWG2 ) with its positioning in the world of money. Yandex.Market says about the price of 3542 rubles per unit. Search on the Internet leads to the price of 3300 rubles .



What%% username gets for this money:

• Powerbank with a capacity of 4640 mAh
• Card reader for SD / SDHC / SDXC and microSD / microSDHC / microSDXC memory cards
• Wi-Fi router
• Photobank

The package also includes a microUSB cable, which is suitable for charging the built-in battery and for recharging Android devices. Cable for "apples" is not included.

Powerbank

For comparison, similar standalone devices cost from 1000 rubles per piece. A battery of such capacity is enough to charge the iPhone 5 twice (data from the official site of Kingston). The reality is this: the iPhone 6 Plus could charge one time from 20 percent to 100% and one more time from 20 percent to 53%. That is, it is impossible to count on a week-long trip without a mains charger, but MLWG2 can help out during the day perfectly.

Card reader

It's hard to invent something new, but the MLWG2 reads all the existing volumes of memory cards of the stated formats, including the latest 256 GB SDXC and 128 GB microSDXC. The delivery comes with the original microSD-> SD adapter in case you bought a microformat card without it or lost your native adapter.

Wi-Fi router

This is one of the key differences between the first and second generation Mobile Lite Wireless. Thanks to the integrated Ethernet port, you can organize a network of wireless access to the Internet in any place where there is a wired network. In addition, it supports the installation of USB 3G modems, that is, you can arrange a network on the road. Power will be supplied from the built-in battery and you will have to choose - either a powerbank or a 3G Wi-Fi router. The function is triggered simply by long pressing the power button.

Photobank

- software for iOS and Android (Windows Phone users - they can only envy) Kingston MobileLite - allows you to do many interesting things, namely:
set the device name (it’s the SSID of the wireless network)
Monitor the battery charge (unfortunately, not very detailed, there is no indication of the charge in percent)

View photos, videos, audios and documents (jpg, tiff, mp4, m4v, pdf, mp3, wav) on a mobile device from connected memory cards or USB flash drives




Traditionally, I propose a set of photos of the device from different angles.







What is the result: for enough reasonable money managed to get a reasonable device. Its advantages from the first version are preserved: the ability to share photos on friends and colleagues, the ability to upload photos and videos on Youtube or social networks, the ability to feed a mobile phone on the road, but now another very important feature has been added: the organization of wireless Internet for several people when there is only one cable or modem. Of course, all these advantages have other devices, but Kingston Mobile Lite Wireless G2 is only 171 grams of functionality and very modest dimensions
