RunningMan: Card reader that plugs in to your phone?
jeffnz: does your camera have USB? if so why not get an OTG cable and a portable 2.5" hard drive or just a stick drive.
You can get powered drives from what I recall

Sounds good... do they exist for the S4?

The RX100 has USB, an I have an S4. What's an OTG cable? I have a 2.5" USB 3.0 750GB drive I could take if I can get images onto it.
A friend of mine posted a link to this wifi hub/battery/backup device. It seems to have too many features for that price, and no single clear function, a bit of a mish mash. Bit wary.
blackjack17: 32gb microsd card in an adapter then you can put it directly into the s4 ?
Then there are no cables to worry about

but this doesn't produce a backup - I think the OP's aim is to get his photos onto at least two forms of storage while still on holiday
Even by plugging the camera to the phone by USB OTG, it means you'd need a big enough SD card in the phone to hold all the phone's stuff plus the 32GB from the camera
shk292: The Ravpower device on amazon looks perfect for your needs - if you read the reviews, one talks specifically about the ability to copy from SD card to USB device
The other option would be a netbook - I always seem to have a netbook or laptop with me on holiday and routinely backup my cameras to it during the holiday
richms: There are plenty of card readers for the S4 etc. Or get the OTG cable and just plug the camera into the phone and use something like astro file manager to move them over to the inbuilt micro SD reader.
Not sure of anything that can do it automatically, but there probably exists.

kiwipawl: Is this the sort of device you are after?

Poll: I did this using my galaxy s3, a usb otg cable, an sd card reader and a 32 gig usb drive when on holiday last year. I've got a 32 gig micro sd card in the phone that I used as a half way point and I did incremental backups once a day so I didn't need a huge amount of space.
If I'd had a usb hub with me I could have skipped the intermediate step but space was at a premium so the extra step was ok for me.
