Did anyone try any third party USB-C SD card readers so far? Personally, I think the Apple version is simply overpriced with a whopping 45 EUR in Europe.

3rd party brands seems quite a bit cheaper. Nevertheless, I am wondering if they provide the same performance. Especially, when copying 4k video content to the iPad Pro (2018). :)
 
I picked up one of these...

Works great, and has both SD and Micro SD card slots. On a computer, you can actually use both slots simultaneously, but that doesn't work on the iPad.

Thanks for your feedback! Unfortunately, this brand doesn't seem to be for sale in Spain. :(

Anyone tried the "Cable Master USB C Dual Card Slot Reader"?

Thanks all! One more question, I know that e.g. the USB-C to 3.5mm converter as well as USB-C headphones interfere with the iPads Pro's WiFi in certain circumstances.

Is this also happening when using the above devices?
