The USB OTG feature is not supported by all android phones having a battery capacity less than 1700 mAh, so there is no use of connecting this mini pen drive to these phones as the flash drive can’t be powered due to low power. The Jet Flash 380 is the fastest and secure way to share data between 2 android phones, tablets and between an android phone and a pc, laptop or a Macbook. It is much faster then Bluetooth and more secure then Wi-Fi. The Transcend Jet Flash 380 and Jet Flash 510 both are water resistant.

The minimum capacity of these two android USB OTG flash drives is 16 GB and maximum is 64 GB. Almost every android phone can support the 16 GB USB OTG pendrive.

Are Tablets Supported
Android tablets like Samsung Galaxy Tab 2, Galaxy Tab 3, Galaxy Note 10.1 etc doesn’t have the mini USB interface so the Jet Flash 380and Jet Flash 510 can’t be connected directly to these android tablets. For this we need to use a USB OTG cable designed for these tablets and connect the bigger USB interface in the OTG cable which you connect to pc and laptops. For connecting pen drives to any android tablet check this tutorial.

The Transcend Jet Flash 380 and Jet Flash 510 can be directly connected to any android phone having a battery capacity of more than 1700 mAh and a mini USB port also known as micro B USB connector. Also it can be connected to PC, laptop and macbook.

    1. Use ES file explorer for OTG functions. Also check the drive on other phones to check whether it is working or not.
