fonefunshop Budi 9-in-1 Essential Travel Charging & Data Sync Cable Stick - Black

Exactly as the name says, it's a charging/sync cable with adapters for various ends including USB-A, micro-USB, and Lightning as well as a micro-SD card storage and a reader as well. I had been carrying all of that in a much larger set of cables, adapters, and a reader so this was a welcome streamlining. The cable is none to long, but sufficient for most synching needs. One could add an extension cable to overcome any length limitation. It's reasonable well-built and slides apart easily with easy access to all the adapters and the cable. The reader works well. If I were to change anything, I might have the reader slide out so you don't have to have the whole stick attached to your phone or laptop while reading.

What are the few joyless distractions to traveling with family? One of them is when no one brings the right charger, cable for their plethora electronic devices.” dad, do you have a C cable, a lightning charger. I can’t charge my kindle!” This little device says a lot of headaches. I always carry a charging brick, but I don’t always carry a lot of different cables. This kid does it all! And it’s in a small, easy to carry cover that fits in your pocket, or anywhere in your travel gear. Shipping was quick and easy. I’ll be ordering a few more devices for the family.

Great space saving solution. The USB cable is not very good at charging and just barely meets the bare minimum of data transfer speeds. Love the multiple spaces for SD cards. The reader is nice too, a bit basic but works fine. The kickstand/phone holder is a joke for most large devices but comes in handy for small kits. Is missing a female full size USB to male USB C adapter but not a deal breaker.

So the ONLY thing i wish it had was a USB port or an SD card port however they literally have a separate product that has both of those. It's super compact and easy to use and i love that it came with so many adapters so i can use it on anything at anytime. I also do like how sturdy it is and how much storage for the tf cards it can hold.

Very sturdy and easy to access. It holds a cable and connectors, and a bunch of microSD cards. It also works as a microSD drive. A++

Really handy and I have already made it my go to method of storage but after a week the rolling mechanism is broken and I have to force the centeral part of it out and shove it back in.

This little guy is really helpful. I've found myself using it just about everyday. It's relatively compact so it's been an easy fit in my computer case. I don't write many of these, but I've been meaning to post this review for a while because it's really become an essential piece of my edc stuff. It's really great. The only thing I wish I could add to it is a wallplug adapter, that would make it perfect. Anyway, if you're thinking about it, it's totally worth it. I plan on getting these as gifts for friends.

This universal charging set up is an edc must in this technological time and place.

Great tool! Have several of these.

The Budi is suuuuper handy for travel! It’s like having a Swiss Army knife for your tech gear. It stores several cards and even SIM cards, which is a lifesaver when you’re on the go. The integrated card reader is a fantastic touch, making it easy to transfer files when you need to (but notice that the card reader function dies not work with iOS) Plus, the built-in cable with various adapters covers all the common devices, so I’m never left searching for the right cord. The only tiny downside is that the sliding mechanism wears down a bit over time, so it’s not as firm as it was at first. But honestly, that’s a minor issue compared to how useful this thing is. It’s still a 5-star product in my book!

Ante la proliferación de conectores (pese a los intentos de unificación), este artículo se hace indispensable. Muy útil sobre todo para "hacer favores": En general uno ya lleva los cables y conectores que necesita. Pero con frecuencia aparece el compañero o amigo que se ha quedado "tecnológicamente colgado". Es de esos artículos que hacen que otros digan -"pregúntale a Fulanito, que siempre tiene de todo".

but that's a cool thing

For how handy this is, with all included adapters, cable, and being a portable HD with my digital life on it, ready to transfer data to literally any computer or phone, it's underpriced.
