what's up guys Lew here back with another video and today I've got something new it just came out I saw this floating around the web and I was like man I can see the utility in that I can see a lot of people being interested in this thing right here it's called I expand and it is a memory case for your iPhone this is about expanding the storage of your iPhone without needing any kind of external device the storage is built into the case comes in a couple of different sizes this is the biggest one 128 gigabytes so I'm thinking you get the highest capacity iPhone stick this baby on there and then I mean I don't know I don't know what you're storing but I think it's a pretty cool concept let's check out the back of the box what do we got play videos from the case it supports all the file formats and it provides durable drop protection now there's an app that goes with it as well but what does it look like it also comes in a few different colors this one as you can see is red and like this kind of grey crosshatch color thing going on you charge up the case by connecting it to the wall via USB there's also an adapter here this is going to plug into the bottom so that you can then use whichever 3.5 millimeter headphone so you slide this guy in then this guy goes back on let's see here there you go so it's kind of an interesting look there ports here for your speakers this kind of maneuvers the sound which normally fires out the bottom of the iPhone towards you when you're holding it buttons and this port here that's the the magical port simple stuff booyah I was wondering what this is for you see this here so that's for an add-on battery pack there's like a tea this little clip here and those contacts you can get a battery pack that clips in here you've now added extra storage but then on top of that you can add extra battery to okay so I've got the app installed now it's called I expand case so you can set up camera backup and this will allow you to back up your entire photo library off of your device's internal storage to the actual store case it separates your data into documents music video and pictures very cool the dashboard here shows the battery life of the phone 39 percent battery pack not connected available storage on the phone 72 percent versus the case 99 percent and what percentage is taken up by certain style or certain type of file but what if I click let's say on the images I can swipe through this is natively on the case these files are on the case and from there I can save it so I can save it directly to the phone storage if I want to or I can send it out to social media message it printed on the video side it's got a native video player right in it for popular file formats now this is actually really interesting because if you've got a bunch of file formats that aren't native to the iPhone since this is coming off the case and it's in its own app now just a basic mp4 and a number of other popular formats will play right here look I'm just I'm playing natively and music same deal it's got a player built-in what happens if I connect the case to like a laptop says it is charging but does it boot up do I get does it mount it's right here music photos video it's way better than those like little dedicated devices because then you've got something else to remember in your pocket in this case it's just it becomes more native Apple's charging you a lot of money to go with the bigger capacity phones then you've got the formatting then you've got the pre-installed stuff you really end up with not that much storage left over now you can use the same phone but essentially end up with way more storage let's say you were using iCloud or drive or whatever to offload some of the stuff that wouldn't fit on the phone well what about when you're in the airplane without Wi-Fi
