A bunch of likes for card readers

A bunch of likes. You have everything in the team, just plug it in, do your job, put it away and download it. Minimizes wear marks on your chip and is clearly visible, so we remember to remove it from the computer.

Pros
  • A lot of positive emotions
Cons
  • Style 90

Cannot be used for nano SIM card

Very clunky. If you connect it where there are 2 USB ports, the second port will not be available. You cannot use it to read a nano SIM card. When you insert the nano sim card into the sim card adapter and then connect it to this Alcey card reader, the spring will push the nano sim card out of the sim card adapter and you need to insert the nano sim card Disassemble the card to pull it out.

Pros
  • Good stuff
Cons
  • Useless features

This is the second SIM card reader I've bought in less than 2 weeks and neither work with SIM cards. False advertising from both sellers claiming they can read SIM cards, although SIM cards do not work with most so-called smart readers. My first purchase was an Oluz card reader and my second was an Alcey portable smart card reader and both didn't work with SIM cards. Design and quality are very bad. Once the SIM card is inserted, it is almost impossible to remove it. The only solution is to…

Pros
  • handy item
Cons
  • Hard to remember but it was

Get what you pay for.

I would give less than one star if I could.1) No drivers were installed from the floppy disk. I had to look for such software because it's rubbish. 2) Specifically card slots. The SIM card slot accepts cards flush. They don't have a spring-loaded trigger. This makes it difficult to remove smaller cards. 3) All of this is flimsy. I have contacted the seller. Several months later I still have not received a reply.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • A long time ago

Works great with CAC or other smart cards

Love it. An excellent combination for different purposes. Works great with military CAC certification and allows reading/writing to various memory cards. I bought two of these hoping for the best and got great results. I have recommended it to others.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • is embarrassing
