Sony has announced and launched a very interesting USB storage device that can connect to both PCs and Smartphones. In the days where smartphone storage is becoming increasingly insufficient, Sony has launched a USB device with microUSB port on side and a regular USB port on the other. The tiny device can be used as an external storage for smartphones. Earlier this year, we unboxed a similar Verbatim USB OTG drive and Sony has followed in the footsteps of Verbatim, but have greatly reduced the size of the device making it very compact and easy to use.
I still remember the first time USB OTG was shown to me in a video demo, featuring the Nokia N8. It was so cool to see that mobile devices could be independent and act as hosts to peripherals like a keyboard and mouse or even a full sized external hard drive, but the most handy use case was always a pen drive. The Nokia N8 came with a USB OTG cable in the box, which let you turn the micro USB port on the phone into a full size USB and in turn that connected to the peripherals. Now, imagine if you have the same functionality, yet you don’t need a cable and happily act as a host right away. That’s exactly what Verbatim has done with its USB OTG Pen Drive. We bought a couple of these from Hong Kong and have unboxed it and demoed it in front of a camera for you. A simple idea, brought to life –

Remember the crazy WCG-10 wireless server from Sony? They have released a successor to it, but it now looks a lot slimmer, just like the Xperia devices, and it can now charge them too! Funnily enough, at first glance, one would think it is actually the back of a Xperia device. A quick recap of what it does is, it’s a portable solution that can connect wirelessly to your smartphone and back-up files, or even let you access the files already in the server and play it back. Pretty interesting concept, that is possibly better explained in a video –
