The i4 Has Landed

April 28, 2025

Taipei, Taiwan – April 29, 2025 – Following NAB Show, the premier destination for leaders in the broadcast, media and entertainment industries, Wise Advanced introduced the i4 Mobile SSD – a black mini-jetpack in the palm of your hand.

The i4 features supersonic data transfer rates up to 4000 MB/s, and solid sustained writing performance of at least 650 MB/s, which guarantees more than enough speed for Apple users to capture all video codecs without limits. This means unlocking previously unavailable slo-mo features, including stunning 4K 120 fps* ProRes on iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max**, with built-in MagSafe (iPhone not included).

Powered by a next-generation low-power-consumption chip, having both low heat and a compact size is no longer a fantasy. “Increasing the speed while cooling the chip was a difficult puzzle that engineers all over the world had been racing to solve for the past few years. In the past, you could either buy one with a fan attached to it, or a brick,” said C.W., Project Manager, “...or wait for something smarter and wiser.”

The Wise i4 Mobile SSD will be available in mid-June and will come with one standard 50 cm USB-IF certified USB4 cable and one short flexible 10 cm cable. For more information contact your local dealers.

*Maximum 4K 60 fps, for iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, requires external storage that supports minimum sustained write of 220 MB per second.
*Maximum 4K 120 fps, for iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max only, requires external storage that supports minimum sustained write of 440 MB per second.
**Only certain iPhone models support recording ProRes directly on an external storage device connected with USB-C. For specific models, please see the link here
