Verbatim Metal Executive 16 GB Gold — 3.6 g of Metal, Key Ring Included

16 GBUSB 3.2 Gen 1, Type-A80 MB/s read / 25 MB/s writeMetal body, 3.6 g

The Verbatim Metal Executive is a 16 GB USB 3.2 Gen 1 flash drive in a solid metal body, 29 x 15 x 5.5 mm and 3.6 g — about the size and weight of a house key. A metal key ring is supplied in the pack. Verbatim publishes read speeds of up to 80 MB/s and write speeds of up to 25 MB/s, and describes the housing as tough, waterproof and dustproof.

Compatibility — check before buying:
This is a USB Type-A drive. There is no USB-C connector and no adapter in the pack, so it will not enter a phone, a tablet or a USB-C-only laptop. Colour is how you tell the two Metal Executive families apart. Gold = USB 3.2 Gen 1 (99104 16 GB, 99105 32 GB, 99106 64 GB) and silver = USB 2.0 (98748 16 GB, 98749 32 GB, 98750 64 GB). The bodies are identical, the finishes are not, and the silver ones are materially slower — Verbatim publishes no MB/s figure for them at all. On the toughness claim: Verbatim calls the drive waterproof and dustproof but publishes no IP rating. Treat it as a metal body that will shrug off a spill and a pocketful of grit, not as certified equipment. Note also that Verbatim’s European page lists Windows 11, 10 and 8 plus Mac OS X 10.4 or higher for this article number, and does not list Linux.

Best For

✓ A drive that lives permanently on a keyring — metal body, key ring in the pack
✓ Pockets and bags where a plastic stick would eventually crack
✓ Documents, spreadsheets and photographs rather than large video files
✓ Machines and laptops with USB-A ports
✓ Handing out as something that does not look like a giveaway
✓ Anyone who wants gold rather than another black stick

Key Features

 
Metal, and genuinely small
29 x 15 x 5.5 mm and 3.6 g. One of the smallest full-size USB-A drives you can buy, and the metal body is why it survives being on a keyring rather than in a drawer.
 
Key ring supplied
A metal key ring comes in the pack, not as an accessory to buy. Small thing, but it is the difference between a drive designed for keys and one with a hole in it.
 
80 MB/s read, 25 MB/s write
Verbatim publishes the same pair for the 16, 32 and 64 GB versions — so this smallest drive is not the slow one in the family, which is often not the case elsewhere.
 
Chip-on-board construction
Verbatim describes a seamless metal enclosure using chip-on-board technology for water resistance. It is the reason the body has no visible seam to let liquid in.

Warranty
Warranty 1-Year Warranty (Singular)
Manufacturer Term Verbatim publishes a 2-year warranty for Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Its United States site states a lifetime term for some articles; that term is scoped to the Americas and does not apply here. Singular’s direct warranty is 1 year; beyond that we assist you with the manufacturer’s warranty process for its full duration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the key ring included or extra?
Included. Verbatim supplies a metal key ring in the pack with the drive.
Is 16 GB slower than the bigger ones?
No. Verbatim publishes 80 MB/s read and 25 MB/s write for all three gold capacities, so buying the smallest one costs you nothing in speed. That is worth knowing, because in most flash-drive families the small drive is the slow one.
What is the difference between the gold and silver versions?
The bus. Gold Metal Executives are USB 3.2 Gen 1 with published 80 / 25 speeds; silver ones are USB 2.0 and Verbatim publishes no speed for them at all. The bodies and the key ring are the same. If a listing shows a silver drive at a tempting price, that is why.
How waterproof is it really?
Verbatim uses the words waterproof and dustproof but publishes no IP rating, so there is no tested depth or duration to quote. Read it as a sealed metal body that will survive a spilled drink and a pocket full of dust, not as something to take swimming.
Singular Expert Insight
This is the drive to buy when the stick has to live on a keyring and still work in two years. Metal, 3.6 g, 29 mm, a key ring in the box rather than sold separately — every design decision points the same way. At 16 GB it is a document and photograph drive, not a video one, and that is a sensible pairing: nobody wants their film library on a keyring. Two honest limits. The toughness is described rather than rated, so there is no IP number to hold Verbatim to. And 25 MB/s write is a flash drive figure — fine for what this capacity is for, tedious for anything large. If you need more room in the same body, the 32 and 64 GB versions publish the same speeds. All sit in our USB flash drives range, and for large working files an external SSD is the right class of product.

Buyer’s Guide

Buy it if

You want a very small metal 16 GB drive that lives on your keys, with the key ring supplied and the same published speeds as the larger models.

Skip it if

You need more than 16 GB, a certified water or dust rating, a USB-C connector, or fast writes for large video files.

Also consider

The 32 GB (99105) or 64 GB (99106) Verbatim Metal Executive — same body, same 80 / 25. The silver USB 2.0 versions only if price matters more than speed.
