Hands on: Western Digital My Passport Wireless Pro review
An external hard drive with a difference
Great battery life ; Sturdy design ; Simplified software setup
USB Type-C port would have been nice ; Price will put some people off
Western Digital's Pro drive is a much better proposition than the vanilla My Passport Wireless. Yes, it is more expensive than its predecessor, but it is a better product on almost all counts.

Western Digital My Passport Wireless 2TB review
A newcomer to an increasingly crowded market
Support for FTP ; Bundled card reader ; Power button ; Two-year warranty
Higher than expected price ; Only average performance
Western Digital's My Passport Wireless is a decent performer but didn't wow us. The price premium outweighs the benefits of the card reader and advanced features bundled in this stocky external hard disk drive. All in all, the My Passport Wireless...

WD My Passport Wireless review
WD's personal cloud product range -- MyCloud -- has grown since its initial debut, which WIRED.co.uk praised highly for its innovative approach to consumer data storage. The EX2 and EX4 extended capacity and data redundancy for professional users and...
Good design, easy to use, supports lots of devices, built-in battery is useful, can be used as a regular hard drive
Battery life not good enough for long journeys with multiple users, Wi-Fi speeds may be too restricted for professional users, price is a little higher than we'd like
The My Passport Wireless is an intriguing device. Its smart design, simplicity of operation and flexibility make it an attractive option for families in particular, not least because of its agnostic approach to compatible devices from rival...

WD My Passport Wireless (2TB)
On the downside, its battery lasted just about 5 and a half hours in my trials, which is shorter than some of its rivals. Also, it could deliver a better media streaming experience and the WD My Cloud mobile app needs a sharper interface. To make up...
The WD My Passport Wireless has a built-in SD card slot and supports faster Wi-Fi standard than competing devices. The device is versatile, easy to use, and provides up to 2TB of mobile storage space.
The device's battery life is comparatively short. Its mobile app has limited file format support, can be confusing for new users, and takes a long time to load photos.
Despite the rather short battery life and confusing apps, the WD My Passport Wireless is an excellent mobile media drive, especially for photographers.
