Mobilelite Wireless

The Mobilelite Wireless is a totally different look than the earlier »Wi-Drive that it replaces. No longer is it the shiny black, cheap, looking plastic. In is the more matte and utilitarian look. This device is for getting a job done, but also has tricks up its sleeve.

The bottom of the Mobilelite Wireless has some rubber feet and various markings and certifications.

One of side the Mobilelite Wireless has the full sized SD card slot. This accepts SDXC cards (as will be shown in the video review).

The other side of the Mobilelite Wireless has a standard USB port and a micro USB port. The standard USB port is for USB flash drives and to charge mobile devices. The Mobilelite Wireless can act as a battery backup when you run out of power on a mobile device. Since the Mobilelite Wireless has its own battery, you can top off your other devices. This is a pretty handy feature since it allows you to carry a single device for multiple duties.

The micro USB port is for charging the device and for putting the Mobilelite in card reader mode. This is the third function of the device. It is a fully functional SDXC card reader. The device must be powered off for this to work. If you want to charge and use the device, you can, though.

Use

For full overview of using the device, please check out the video review in the next section. Basically, the Mobilelite Wireless works well. Think of the »Wi-Drive, but better. It actually works in bridge-mode. Like the previous generation, you have to connect to the device over WiFi.

Once you make this connection, use the Mobilelite Wireless software (available for Android and iOS) to configure the device. It will happily bridge your wireless connection and allow you to use the internet and the extra storage at the same time. If you're so include, you can opt to use any samba type of file manager to get direct access to the Mobilelite Wireless. It is pretty handy.

It can handle up to three different mobile devices at once, but expect battery life to be less. In practice, we're looking at four hours or less while really using the device. This is mitigated since you can use and charge the device at the same time. We found it very useful to plug in USB flash drives for storage since we've got tons of them. It's like you have USB host support without the mobile device supporting it.

For expanding storage in your mobile device, it works well. My Nexus devices happily use this. There are lots of people that have the original Wi-Drive and have wanted removable storage. Now, you have it with this. Remember, no internal storage. You must add a SD card or USB flash drive.
