Forget iCloud. This Case Gives Your iPhone 2TB of Real Expandable SD Card Storage

The iRe5 Gen 2 modular ecosystem provides iPhone and Android users with expandable microSD storage, pass-through charging, and professional-grade hub functionality to streamline mobile video production workflows.

Key Points

  • The system features two form factors: the aluminum X-Module for cinema rigs and a silicone Storage Case for daily carry.
  • Both versions support up to 2TB of microSD expansion and USB 3.0 data transfer speeds reaching 360 MB/s.
  • Advanced pass-through charging allows users to record 4K ProRes video while simultaneously powering the phone and connecting peripherals.
  • The SyncPal companion app utilizes an NFC disc to trigger automated file backups and organization without manual menu navigation.
  • The hardware is compatible with both USB-C and Lightning devices, supporting external SSDs and 3.5mm audio equipment.
  • Pricing starts at $69.90 for the X-Module, with global shipping scheduled to begin in July 2026.

Why it Matters

This modular solution addresses the growing friction creators face as flagship smartphones continue to remove physical storage slots and limit connectivity. By consolidating power, storage, and peripheral management into a single device, it reduces reliance on fragile dongles and cloud-based workflows during high-stakes professional shoots.
