Backup without a computer while traveling

I posted a few weeks ago re: this issue.
My experience, after 10 days out of the US, is that the New Q device works well to backup photos to a light solid state USB drive.
It also allows one to create a Wi-Fi network between the New Q device and an iPad (or similar I presume). This was my other goal, to review photos on a larger than a camera screen. That worked pretty well also if a JPEG.
I had no time nor interest in editing at nite.
Happy not to have to deal with a laptop. Internet not required. Pretty inexpensive. Light. Simple. Can be used as a battery to charge other devices.
Does other stuff too that I did not need nor explore.
Just my 2c based on my experience.

If you send valuable time culling JPEGs, you'll find that time wasted when you get home and still have full roster of unculled RAW files.

Not me. The files are right next to each other in Explorer, so there's no trouble deleting the RAW as well as the JPEG when perusing with Explorer.

Pull them up on the OP's New Q and tell us how great this process works.

His problem for his methodology, not mine.
