Product Details

Three Ports, One Reader – Transfer Everything

The ULANZI CR1 eliminates the need for multiple adapters and dongles. It features three ports in one compact body:

• SD card slot – for standard SD cards (cameras, camcorders, audio recorders)

• TF (microSD) card slot – for microSD cards (drones, action cams, smartphones)

• USB‑A port – for flash drives or connecting other USB devices

All three ports can be read simultaneously. Copy photos from your camera’s SD card to a USB flash drive while also accessing your drone’s microSD card – all through a single connection to your phone or laptop.

Blazing‑Fast USB 3.2 Gen1 – Up to 5Gbps

The CR1 uses the latest USB 3.2 Gen1 standard (formerly USB 3.0), with a theoretical maximum speed of 5Gbps. Real‑world performance:

• SD / TF slot read speed: 150MB/s – 200MB/s (UHS‑I cards)

• USB‑A port: USB 2.0 (480Mbps) – suitable for flash drives and basic peripherals

Transfer a 1GB photo batch in about 6 seconds. Offload 4K video from your action camera in moments. No more waiting.

Dual Connectors – USB‑C & USB‑A for Maximum Compatibility

The CR1 features a built‑in USB‑C plug that connects directly to:

• USB‑C smartphones (iPhone 15/16/17, Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel, OnePlus, etc.)

• USB‑C tablets (iPad Pro/Air, Android tablets)

• USB‑C laptops (MacBook, Chromebook, Windows ultrabooks)

For devices with only USB‑A ports (older laptops, desktop PCs), the CR1 includes a detachable USB‑A adapter (or the body itself is designed with both – the images show a USB‑A male plug on one end and USB‑C on the other, or a flip‑out design). Effortlessly switch between your phone and computer.

Wide System Compatibility – Plug and Play

The CR1 works with virtually every operating system without installing drivers:

Just plug it in – your device recognizes the reader instantly.

Up to 2TB Capacity – Future‑Proof

The CR1 supports SD, SDHC, and SDXC cards up to 2TB capacity. Whether you’re using 32GB cards for everyday shooting or 1TB cards for long‑form video, the CR1 handles them all. Compatible with UHS‑I cards for maximum speed.

Aluminum Body – Cool, Durable, Professional

Unlike cheap plastic card readers that overheat and warp, the CR1 features a premium aluminum alloy body. Benefits:

• Better heat dissipation – stays cool during large file transfers

• Durable – resists drops and scratches

• Lightweight – only 16g

• Professional look – matches modern laptops and phones

Case‑Friendly Stepped Connector

The USB‑C plug is designed with a stepped profile that fits into phones with protective cases – no need to remove your case every time you want to transfer photos. Works with most popular case brands.

Dust Cap & Detachable Lanyard – Thoughtful Design

• Dust cap: Protects the USB‑C plug from dust, lint, and pocket debris when not in use.

• Detachable lanyard / carabiner (included): Clip the CR1 to your keychain, camera strap, backpack, or belt loop. Always within reach, never lost.

Built‑in Safety Circuitry – Protect Your Data

The CR1 includes overcurrent and short‑circuit protection. If a faulty card or USB device tries to draw too much power, the reader shuts down safely – preventing damage to your cards and data loss.

LED Indicator – Know When It’s Safe to Remove

A blue LED lights up and flashes during data transfer. When the light is steady or off, it’s safe to disconnect. No more corrupted files from pulling out the reader mid‑transfer.
