While creating the “right” Envoy Pro mini, we spent countless hours obsessing over the smallest details…because they matter. The USB-C connector cap is tethered to the housing so you will never misplace or lose it. The seemingly simple neck lanyard mentioned above? It incorporates a safety breakaway, so if it accidentally catches on something, it will detach harmlessly. Perhaps most importantly, the Envoy Pro mini’s big speed and capacity don’t make it a space hog. When you plug it in, this sleek little powerhouse keeps adjacent ports free for use.Saves the Gaming DayAs a console gamer, you know you can never have enough storage space.
