This charging cable packs a secret weapon for the iPhone

No one likes running out of storage on their iPhone. Luckily, this charging cable will solve all those problems.

If you didn’t cough up the big bucks for the 128GB iPhone, then you’re probably wishing you had more expandable storage right about now. Sure, you could always drop the dough to get a model with more storage, but then again, who wants to spend all that money on a  smartphone when there’s much more affordable options out there.

Thankfully, there are a few external solutions that give your iPhone extra storage space. They typically look like standard flash drives but we’ve found a very cool alternative. The Lexar JumpDrive C20i 128GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive looks like a plain old USB-to-Lightning charger cable, but it packs a hidden 128GB flash drive that can add store to any PC or iOS device.

Here are the key details:

• Expands the memory of your iPhone or iPad
• 3-in-1 solution: Lightning and USB 3.0 connectors in a convenient charging cable design
• USB 3.0 performance (up to 95MB/s read and 20MB/s write)
• Compatible with both PC and Mac systems
• Automatically and securely sync files
