Apotop Wi-Reader and Wi-Reader Pro Review and Giveaway

Apotop Wi-Reader and Wi-Reader Pro Review and Giveaway

Imagine you’ve just snapped a thousand photos on your digital camera — it isn’t one of those “smart” models with Wi-Fi like the Samsung Galaxy Camera — and now, back in your hotel room and equipped with free wired Internet, you’d like to share them with your friends and family right away, but you don’t have a computer, or an SD card reader. I’d be willing to bet good money that this has happened to some of you. If so, the devices I’m reviewing today would be right your alley.
Today, in a double review, I’ll be taking a look at the Apotop Wi-Reader and Wi-Reader Pro — two portable, wireless SD card and USB drive readers and routers. They’ll also be given away, so be sure to read through the entire review and join the competition.

 Introducing the Apotop Wi-Reader and Wi-Reader Pro

Apotop’s Wi-Reader (DW09) and Wi-Reader Pro (DW17) are marketed to operate as wireless SD card readers and USB hubs. Basically, they help to connect external media with iOS and Android smartphones, tablets and computers by bridging the physical media gap. In addition to that, both devices can also be used as portable routers by acting as gateways or repeaters. As a plus, the Pro model can also be used to charge external devices through a 1A USB port. Both devices utilise internal, non-removable batteries to operate — the Pro’s more capacious 2,600 mAh battery allows it to operate for 7 continuous hours while the Wi-Reader only has 1,100 mAh to work with, which lasts around 3 hours.

The Wi-Reader is available on Amazon for about $43, while the Pro sells for $59.99. But they aren’t the only products the market has seen with these features.
For the same amount of money as the Wi-Reader, a similar device by EasyAcc is a good alternative — it also functions as a portable WiFi router/repeater, wireless SD card and USB drive reader, and it even has a 8,800 mAh built-in battery which can be used to charge external devices.

The $45 RAVPower RP-WD01 is a device (which we’ve reviewed) with a similar range of features — it acts as an external battery pack and wireless file hub. However, it doesn’t include any routing capabilities.

Samsung Galaxy S5 Review and Giveaway

Few smartphones are as aggressively marketed as Samsung’s Galaxy S5. The S5 can no longer be considered brand-new — but it  is  Samsung’s flagship, at least for the next few months. With a gorgeous screen, a capable camera, a waterproof build, and a user-replaceable battery, the Galaxy S5 has a lot to offer… at least on paper. Let’s find out how good it really is. What Makes This Review Different There are about a million Galaxy S5 reviews out there. Why should you read this one? Two keys points make our review different: We bought our own device . Unlike many tech blogs, we don’t use a review unit Samsung gave us. We went out to the store and bought one, just like you would. This means everything you read here is truly impartial – we owe Samsung nothing. We used it for more than a month . Some sites rush to be the first to publish a review on a new device. That’s not how we do things. I used the Galaxy S5 as my main (and only) Android phone for nearly two months,...
