Samsung T7 Shield

A marginal improvement over the standard Samsung T7

- DESIRE ATHOW

The Samsung T7 Shield is an external rugged SSD and is the third member of the T7 family, after the T7 and the T7 Touch launched in 2020; a long hiatus. The latter left a lasting impression on us because it brought a feature that was never available at this price point: a fingerprint reader. The T7 Shield does the opposite; it brings a fairly common feature - extra ruggedness over the standard model, that is - at a $20 hike over the T7's reasonable price tag, and that's about it really.
