New Pioneer BDR-XD07 External Blu-ray Burners Connect Directly to Android Smartphones
Pioneer has released a series of external Blu-ray disc burners in Japan, featuring a USB-C cable to connect to Android devices and easily transfer their audio CD libraries.
Available in Japan next month, the BDR-XD07J-UHD, BDR-XD07BK, BDR-XD07R and BDR-XD07 W models are bundled with a USB Type-C cable to connect to Android devices. With Pioneer's 'Stellanova' Wireless Hi-Res player app installed to an Android smartphone, Japanese users can dirtectly import and playback audio CDs, without using a PC.

The external drives are available in black, red, and white colors. They have a slim, clamshell design, and support playback of Ultra HD Blu-ray discs, besides the typical CD/DVD/BD burning features: 6x for BD-R /-R DL / -R (LTH)/ M-DISC DL, 8x with DVD-R/ +R / -RW /+RW, and 24x for CD-R/RW.
