Professional reviewers highlight the drive's premium metal construction, dual-connector versatility and the convenience of eliminating adapters, but criticize the misleading 400 MB/s claim and the absence of built-in security features.
Everyday users praise the drive's solid build, keyring design and seamless file transfers between phones and computers, especially for backing up photos on the go. Recurring complaints focus on the drive heating up during large transfers, slower-than-expected write speeds, lack of encryption, and a swivel hinge that can become loose over time.
“Dual-port saves me from carrying adapters.”
“Write speed feels sluggish when moving many small files.”
“The rotating cap is great, but it got loose after a few months.”
Professional reviewers note that while the EB05 doesn't match the ultra-fast UFSD line, it delivers reliable USB 3.2 Gen 1 performance, a sturdy aluminum body and excellent cross-platform compatibility, making it a solid mid-range choice for users who prioritize convenience and durability over top-tier speeds.
Everyday users appreciate the drive's convenience, sturdy metal build and rotating cap that keeps it from getting lost, but they frequently mention slower write speeds, occasional compatibility hiccups with car systems, and the reduced usable capacity compared to the advertised 128 GB.
