To quickly access them a sliding panel moves and spins in multiple directions to deploy the connectors individually to use the On The Go as a portable charger or flash drive, or in pairs allowing the device to be used as a substitute sync cable.

It offers basic Bluetooth functionality allowing it to remotely trigger an alarm and locate your smartphone if you’ve misplaced it.
