The Lexar ES3 is the slim option in this ranking, and the listing pairs a 1050 megabyte per second read speed over USB 3.2 Gen 2 with a body the listing calls ultra slim, in a 2.5 inch form factor and a listed weight of 110 grams.

Compatibility is wider than most drives here: gaming consoles, laptops and smartphones are named, and the compatible console list includes both PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S, which matters if the drive is meant to move games rather than files. At the time of collection it carried 1,645 ratings at 4.4 stars. Everything here comes from the Amazon listing rather than our own testing.
