For more information on the Transcend's speed tests, please see our full guide. It was as fast as the IOGear in nearly every test, except for its awful microSD write speeds on Mac. If our pick is out of stock or unavailable, we recommend the Transcend USB 3.1 Multi-Card Reader. The Transcend USB 3.1 Multi-Card Reader is a good second choice if the IOGear is unavailable. Runner-up: Transcend USB 3.1 Type-C Multi-Card Reader The IOGear reader is slightly bigger than our other USB-C picks, but it has the best warranty of its competitors, covering three years.

When reading and writing to the microSD card, it had speeds of 85 MB/s and 64 MB/s, and in our CF card test, it had read and write speeds of 144 MB/s and 114 MB/s. In our SD card test, the IOGear had read and write speeds of 84 MB/s and 72 MB/s, respectively. The IOGear USB-C 3-Slot Card Reader is the best SD card reader for most people because it's affordable (usually less than $20) and produced fast speeds during our SD, microSD, and CF tests, every single time.
