SmartQ C368 USB 3.0 Card Reader – Plug & Play, Compatible with Apple & Windows, Supports SD, Micro SD, MS, CF Cards

Call me old fashion but I was quite irritated when I realized my new laptop had no USB reader! Found this item and it’s the perfect size to not get in the way while working. Super nice, great options for the card slot sizes also.

I came across several old compact flash cards from a camera I no longer have. I wanted to upload the photos on the compact flash cards to my computer (PC, Windows 10) but had no way to do it so I purchased this card reader. Plugged it into the USB port and it worked flawlessly.

I had gotten this along with some sd cards to essentially give myself more space for laptop games. It works fantastically. I was able to start Zenless Zone Zero after however long of wanting to play it thanks to this purchase. If you’re also getting this for the same reason, it’s worth the money. Would order again if for some reason my current one gets destroyed. Lol.

Like the subject says, this is my second reader (the older C368 is almost 2 years old). I decided to purchase the C368PRO model because I like the idea of being able to alternate between USB-A or USB-C connections. My MAC has four USB-C ports and my doc has only one USB-A port, so it just made sense. The first time I plugged in the reader to the USB-C port on my MAC, I didn’t push it in completely. It was a bit stiff at first, so I thought it was seated and the connection dropped while I was looking at files. This was 100% my fault. Once I pushed it a bit harder, it “clicked” (and so did my brain!). “You gotta push it all the way in, man!” From then on, the card reader worked very well with good speed when transferring data. I mostly use the reader to view high definition photos on SD, MicroSD and CF cards. The photos range from 3MB up to almost 20MB and I am pleased that I can preview from the card without bogging down my computer. It has always connected fast, and most importantly, it just WORKS. Obviously there are other variables to consider like your USB port speed and/or card speed, but as far as the reader is concerned, it works and works well. Highly recommend.

Very easy to use. Works well for my laptop that doesn’t take an sd card directly.

I needed an SD Card Reader and found this one. It has sockets for all memory card types I have used in the past and is totally plug and play in both my MacBook and Windows PC. Got to give this one an A+.

I have used this product for traveling for over a year. It is easy to use, lightweight and works as promised. I bought two and have not had any issues with either one. We travel with our DSLR cameras. We like to download the cards at night and cull through the shots for the day. This product makes it easy since our cameras have different size cards.

Worth the price. It’s compact but has space for any card you’d want to read. It’s easy to use a is fast.

rchased this unit for the ones that came with some of the Micro SD cards did not work properly. This unite is just plug and play. Works faster if you plug it into a 3.0 or higher USB port but works good with a USB 1 or 2. It is a good deal but with the time now it is a bit more expensive than what it should be. Still it does the job.

; Plug and play. I bought this to download photos off an old digital camera’s SD card. Plugged it into my Acer laptop’s USB-C port and downloaded the pics in seconds. It worked as advertised, now my PC can read multiple memory storage devices.

needs to do. It’s an SD card reader. I used it for transfering relatively small files (less than two gigabytes), so I can’t give a full review of it’s speed; but it does exactly what it needs to do, and does it well.

ader !. This card reader was so handy to use and read all my cards onto my big computer ! wouls recommend for anyone that is not computer literate so simple anyone can use it

d this for a new camera, and it works very well. Three different cards accepted, as shown. I find that when using a USB gang plug, it works on most, but not all, of the plug ins. I’ve had it for 5 years.

ld give this a solid 5 stars if it weren’t for the cord. It is far too short. I have had to use an extension cable on it. The device works great however.

ls. I am happy with the quality of the materials for this device. The reader has a good weight to it and doesn’t feel flimsy or easily breakable. The cord is coated with a nice material. The part that comes out of the device is reinforced and can bend quite a bit without me fearing it will fray or break.The device works as intended and can transfer raw picture files quickly. It’s not clunky to put in a bag. Good product!

ppy with this purchase. It was inexpensive and can be used for all types of cards, which is great. Because, I have a lot of old cards that I had that I didn’t know what was on them.. lol 😂

ure out, even if you’re completely blind like me. I am a music producer who uses SD cards to record natural audio samples, things like ocean waves and other nature sounds. So I need to bring the SD cards back to the studio and process what I collected. This card reader was really really fast and works great on my Mac running macOS Monterey. As I said in the title, I’m completely blind. So I’ll tell you how to oriented if you’re having trouble as other reviewer‘s have said. There is one side where you can feel what feels like a shiny little window. That side goes up. The both sides have some engraving on it, I can’t see what they are. Assuming there the company logo and such. But as long as you have the little shiny window side facing up, it’s oriented properly for you. The other thing to note is that when you slide the SD card in, you might have to push a little harder than you normally do with some SD card slots on your camera or audio equipment. to get it out, you just pull it out. You don’t press it in and have it spring out like you do on some things. Once you have that figured out, works great. Really happy about this, as I have an ocean side trip where I need to take samples of a whole ton of different ocean waves and surface for some upcoming projects. And it doesn’t do me any good unless I can download the files to my computer. And my audio recording equipment doesn’t do as well or is fast connecting to the Mac. Not directly. So just popping the SD card out of it and putting it in this reader will be super super fast! I ran some test with it and it’s really speedy.
