Up to six devices can connect via WiFi to the Media Streamer at the same time and stream different content.
The Media Streamer provides up to four hours of mobile device battery backup with its built-in 2500mAh power charger. Since it doesn’t require an Internet connection, smartphone-centric teens with always have their entire media library available for unlimited entertainment without data overage charges.
What’s more, the Media Streamer allows for a two-way transfer between mobile devices and USB drives or SD cards.
