A convenient choice to share beautiful photos of the camera and play with the Eye-Fi Mobi wireless memory card.

The combination of mobile phones and tablets with mobile networks is popular. Nowadays, a large number of photos in social networking sites and online photo albums are taken with mobile phones and tablets. However, many consumers are still not satisfied with the effect of camera shooting, but feel that the photos taken by the camera can not be uploaded in time. In addition to camera manufacturers starting to introduce WiFi into cameras for mobile phone connection, wireless memory cards are another option, the oldest of which is Eye-Fi. Recently, they also introduced Mobi cards for mobile phones and began to introduce them.

The wireless memory card introduced by Eye-Fi earlier is mainly used by professional photographers to transfer the data from the camera to the computer. But Mobi aims at real-time sharing and uploading from mobile phones to mobile phones and tablets. The wireless connection software on PC is no longer provided, and the original RAW file cannot be transmitted.

Mobi emphasizes that its internal structure consists of Samsung's memory particles, wireless modules and ARM-based processors, and emphasizes that compared with ordinary wireless memory cards, Mobi is more cautious about power management and transmission mode, and can also ensure data integrity and security when transmitting files. In addition, Eye-Fi also cooperates with many camera factories to optimize the power management mode, and several cameras also provide the transmission mode management of the Eye-Fi card on the fuselage side.

The use of Eye-Fi Mobi is quite simple. First, after downloading the exclusive app on Android or iOS device, insert the memory card into the camera, and the camera will remind the user to enter the pairing serial number on the sticker of the memory card box in the package, and then complete the pairing of the memory card and the device. After opening the app next time, the files in Mobi will be synchronized to the device in order. Next time you want to add a new Mobi card, just add a new card and enter the serial number in the options of the application.

If the camera does not support management mode, the default transmission mode of Mobi card is to synchronize the photos taken by the camera directly to the device, but if the camera supports management function, more management modes can be selected. Take Ricoh GR as an example. In the menu, you can decide whether to completely synchronize the transmission or specify the photo synchronization, or you can choose the file size for synchronization in advance. If you are not sure about the support of your camera, you can check it on Mobi's website.

The use method is simple. When you open the app of your mobile phone while taking pictures, you will start data synchronization. After closing the app, the connection will still be closed after the photo transfer is completed. If the transmission process is disturbed or interrupted, Mobi will still retry the photo transmission, and the Mobi card will not be affected by the camera hibernation. Even if the camera sleeps, it will not sleep until the photo synchronization is completed.

But unfortunately, Mobi's memory card itself has a relatively average reading and writing speed. If it is used in continuous shooting with large pixel photos, it will feel that the writing speed is still lower than that of professional high-speed memory cards. Therefore, if it is used by a professional photographer, it may be hard for continuous shooting, but it is more than enough for ordinary leisure shooting.

Compared with many wireless memory cards, Mobi's setup and operation are quite simple, there is no complicated setup procedure, and there is no need to worry that the camera hibernation setting will affect file transfer. If the transfer fails, it can be automatically uploaded and retried until the file transfer is completed, and it has cooperated with many camera factories to set the power consumption and even advanced mode. Although many cameras have begun to have built-in wireless transmission, Mobi card can make it easier for cameras without WiFi to transmit photos to mobile phones, making it more timely and convenient to share camera photos.
