team_group_t133_usb_flash_drive.pngThe Team T133 Java Sparrow UFD emerged with the rise of respect for nature arose across the world. Inspired by nature and integrated technology with life, the T133 reveals the secret of technology for life with a clean and low-profiled design in contrast with the sharp black and orange appearance of a Java sparrow along with a push button to easily eject the USB connector. The T133 equipped with USB 3.0 for super speed data transfer manifests the never-ending energy from new technology.

The cap-less design of the Team T133 Java Sparrow UFD has a patented spring device for the USB connector to eject automatically by a gentle push. When removing the T133 from the computer after transferring data and files, the USB connector will automatically contract. Simple and convenient, the Team T133 UFD is a perfect choice for busy young urban bourgeoisie to turn complexity into simplicity at work and in everyday life.

Inspired by the Java sparrow, the T133 has a matte texture surface finish to keep dirt and scratches away to ensure the UFD always look new. The orange beak on the natural black body is the visual identity of the Java sparrow and the push button of T133 that make both a classic of their kinds. Fancy ornamentations are replaced by dull black in contrast with orange to attract attention more easily. The angled shell is substituted by the curve body to interpret the ultrahigh speed of USB 3.0. With the Java sparrow as your faithful and reliable messenger, the T133 enables you to wander around nature while accessing data. Extraordinary and outstanding, the T133 is your only and perfect choice!
