Samsung says the drive copies a 4 GB file in about 9 seconds, with read speeds of up to 400 MB/s. By Samsung's own count, 512 GB holds up to 24 hours of 4K video, so footage shot on a phone can go to a computer without any cloud service. Real-world speed depends on the port: in a USB 2.0 socket the drive runs slower. According to the manufacturer it survives up to 72 hours in seawater at a depth of one metre.
Phone and tablet owners who want extra storage without cables; photographers and video makers moving material to a laptop; travellers whose files need to survive water, knocks and airport X-ray scanners. The Samsung Magician software lets you check that the drive is genuine, monitor its health and benchmark its speed.

Yes. The manufacturer lists PCs, notebooks, smartphones and tablets with a USB-C port as compatible. The phone has to support external USB storage; no list of specific models is given.
Not directly, because the plug is USB-C. A computer with only USB-A ports needs a USB-C to USB-A adapter, and none is mentioned as included.
The manufacturer does not specify a write speed; only the read speed of up to 400 MB/s is published.
