I’ve gotten one of these. I know they’re knock-offs and from China. I just love that they’re more creatively designed than the normal “branded” (quality assured) ones. You know I’ve a thing for cute stuffs!
I know the risk involved for their cheaper price. Because there are some unethical sellers who will fake the capacity and make it appears as the capacity they advertised. Say they advertised the drive to have 64GB, they’ll program a 32GB (some more heartless seller will use a 16GB or even 8GB one) to show that it has 64GB! But when you add files bigger than its original capacity, they just get corrupted and won’t work! If you’ve no backup for those files… sorry, they’re gone… (well, maybe some experts could try and recover them but it won’t be cheap and takes time)
I took the gamble and well, I won, in a way … They’re not the fastest in writing and reading speed but at least they’re working and have the stated memory capacity. I’ve tested them with testing programs!

If they’re cheap, they might be worth a try. Very cute, indeed! ?
I voted for “Sushi”, it would have been my first choice too but “a little bird told me” the sushi ones were out of stock so you got the cola one. ?
Though they are cute, I usually only get those simple ones as they save space. 😛
Nowadays I don’t use thumb drives often as I usually save my files in the cloud, so they can be retrieved easily.
I see … I am still using portable drive (hard disk) …
I think I need something tangible to feel safer :p
I don’t use too many thumb drives although I used to, great ideas though
It’s more practical to get a hard disk actually …
since we’re dealing with bigger files now …
I have a thumb drive but it’s plain and ordinary. Those are cute!
Hehe, each to its own …
I like cute stuff.
My sister like cute stuffs too but she won’t take one to work because she wanted to look more professional.
they are all so cute. If you really need one then why not give it a try.
Already did! hehe
if you’re not very particular on transferring speed then they’re fine.
also don’t try to transfer large files, it might takes awhile
I am surprised by the term thumbdrive. Truly a new term from the flash drive, USB and USB stick.
They seems to have many names …
but whichever you prefers 🙂
I would surely go for one – ice cream – as they do not cost a bomb!! And use it for stuff that I will not worry if it vanishes (lol)
Yeah, that’s true!
I’m using it now to pass files around (from me to my sister)…
I would not store files in them for long periods.
Some of these are really funny. I like the ice cream one.
I like it too, but I prefers the Sushi and cola.
Since the sushi are out of stock, I got the cola.
These are all cute. I thought of you when I saw the sushi. 🙂
Well, I do want the sushi ones, but they’re out of stock, so I got the Cola one instead! It’s really cute!
They are all adorable.
