Newsmy
One might think that Newsmy flash drives try to comepte with rockets. Not so much in terms of speed but in terms of their model names. However, as Newsmy is a Chinese company and not German, I’m sure there is no ulterior motive of resurrecting a V series. But without further ado, let us launch an overview.

I like V3, its color and style.

Its what we’ve come to expect of Newsmy flash drives now. Flashy designs with the full potential that a 2.0 usb will allow.
Great looking designs. Would you have a link to where these can be bought?

Donovan,
you can buy them at the links I provided right under the images.

I like the V8. Something about carrying around so much information without it looking like you’re actually carrying around alot of information appeals to me. It looks like a regular keyring I’d carry around and I like the design of it anyway. Might get one of those, I’d be less likely to lose something attached to my keys.

These have to be without doubt the best looking USB drives out there.
