I'm on my second flash drive. One has been sticking out on the TV for 5 years, new for the phone (via an OTG adapter). In general, she had no problems. Compactness is very convenient because even with an OTG adapter, the whole structure does not hang out in the connector and takes up little space. Different pros: Compact. Strong. Reliable. Fast. When recording almost the entire volume (128 GB), the speed did not lose (this is about 1+ hour of constant recording). Everything reads fine and fast enough for large files. Has cons: The case is heated, because it is metallic. You can get burned. This is not a minus. You just need to be more careful. The grip is not very comfortable, sometimes you need to try to grab it to pull it out, especially from hard-to-reach places.
